I would step on the area with my boots on. Problem solved.

This reply is from a homeowners perspective; I don't know what you consider to be major tree work but one could hardly do more tree work than I have done with my mighty B2601. I bought it primarily for mowing my 2 acre suburban lot and it does that wonderfully, in addition I have cut down 10 or...

Google a business called Specialty Repairs Mods. They sell a nice filter guard and other handy items that may appeal to your circumstance. High quality pieces. Good luck.

Do you have a Piranha bucket edge tooth bar yet? If not consider that before anything else. Good luck.

The forestry mulchers I have seen operate on skid steers. I don't believe your tractor has the hydraulic capacity to support the usage of a forestry unit.

Try taking that stuff to a machine shop. See if they can help you. There is a YouTube channel called Vintage Machinery with Keith Rucker. This guy fixes this type of thing regularly. Pretty certain it can be done. Good luck.

Algicides have been discussed here previously you might want to try using the search feature. I believe most auto parts places and probably Amazon carry the stuff.

I think you can buy a whole roasted chicken at Walmart for $6. Just sayin.

Call your local Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. They know all about this type of thing and offer their services free of charge. They may send someone out to look things over and provide some useful thoughts. Good luck.

There is a line in the fabulous book Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy " There is no joy in the tavern as upon the road thereto" that often comes to mind when I enter my 30 x 40 ft garage filled with machinery aggressively and enthusiastically accumulated , needed (I thought) to make giant...

I would look up lathes under completed listings on eBay to get an idea how these are valued. I have been to many machinery shop auctions here in Pittsburgh over the last decade and there is often very little demand for this type of stuff . That lathe would have sold for maybe $1,000. Don't be...

You might want to state the location, number of hours, and the transmission type. Good Luck.

Everything Attachments (EA) is back in business. You no longer pay in advance. They offer some quality implements made in the U.S.A. Many here consider their grapple the gold standard. Good luck.

Stihl makes an auger that has a safety brake feature that stops the drilling/augering when the auger encounters too much resistance. Keeps you from dislocating your shoulder. Nevertheless I am nominating you for the September 2024 "MacGyver of the Month Award".

You get what you pay for. Still much better than what was available even 5 years ago.

The internet has squeezed a lot of juice out of profit margins by promoting what's termed "price discovery" . Before Facebook I would not have had any idea that low hour b2601 tractors with loaders and backhoes were being offered not far from me for $25,000. It took about a minute to find them...

Real world decisions in any asset class are based on present pricing and not what one paid for it 2 years ago. Pretend you are looking for a similarly equipped b2601 today would it matter what it cost 2 years ago? Stocks, bonds ,real estate and even tractors values are readily discernible...

Look them up yourself on Facebook. The fact that they are being offered and still available at $25,000 tells the story. Consumer credit particularly in the much watched auto loan sector continues to deteriorate. Dollar General and other "lower end" retailers earnings and stock prices are also...

I am in Pittsburgh and there are a few similarly equipped low hour units being offered within a 250 mile radius on Facebook Marketplace. Thats your competition. If you are looking to sell it sooner rather than later I would ask $23,500.

It was over $1000 2 or 3 years ago as I recall.
