    Purchasing a Grapple, looking for opinions with any issues on hose connections.

    I have the exact same setup LX2610 and EA 55" Wicked Grapple. I got flat face couplers from Summit Hydraulics to replace what EA supplied. The lines are straight no 90 degree fittings It works well and I have no problems with it. Only mod I did was I added a hose sleeve to protect the hoses from...

    PTO Shaft cover removal

    Don't use brake cleaner (especially the chlorinated stuff) There are a lot of plastics that it damages and makes brittle use WD-40 or electrical contact cleaner.

    Im sure its simple

    Hard to tell in the photo but is the bolt on the implement top bottoming out in the top link hook of the quick hitch?

    L 2350 block heater installation

    If your motor has only press in freeze plugs then I strongly suspect that the proper block heater for it is a press in type with a toggle bolt style retainer to hold it in the block.

    Im sure its simple

    Not for my 3pt stuff but it lets me store the grapple and forks out of the way and in a corner of the barn,,,,

    L 2350 block heater installation

    The way the heating element is it does not matter the orientation of it. On my LX2610 the only option was next to the oil filter on the front left side. It's as I recall a 17mm hex bit for the freeze plug and a 1-3/8" socket for the heater. Make sure you get it tight even with pipe dope it hade...

    Tractor Turning Radius.

    Zero Turns have separate drive levers that control each wheel motor separately. They also have a parking brake but that locks both rear wheels at the same time. Because you have separate drive levers you can control the speed as well as the direction of movement of each rear wheel individually.

    Proper Ballast Recommendations

    Just a quick comment. The front axle is designed to handle the weight of the loaded bucket. Also the weights listed in the sales brochure are shipping weights. My LX2610 with beet juice in the larger 15-19.5 tires is about 700 pounds heavier than the shipping weights figure out to (Accounting...

    Tractor Turning Radius.

    It depends on what you plans are. If all your doing is mowing grass then nothing beats a Zero Turn. With my Scag Tiger Cat 2 61" deck. I can turn without leaving anything uncut. Plus it's in my case 2+ acres mowed with lots of trees. It takes less than 1/2 the time it did with the old B7510 &...

    Vote!

    In Michigan we voted back a few years ago to have "no reason" absentee ballot voting... They also have a web page for you to track your ballot. My ballot was received at the township clerks office 10/7 Just another reason to ignore the negative political ads. A candidate that advertises what he...

    2022 LX2610 59" loader bucket cutting edge

    The price is on their web page I think they are $400+-. As to the hooks I just welded mine on the bucket and painted them. But I think 511 designs has a bolt on hook setup. Not the best photo but this is what I did for mine. I took a better shot of the hooks tonight and posted it as well

    2022 LX2610 59" loader bucket cutting edge

    Not the cheapest option but they are custom made to fit the actual measurements of your bucket. Also it's made from an abrasion resistant steel. https://www.everythingattachments.com/EA-Wicked-Tooth-Bar-for-Tractor-Buckets-p/eta-wtb.htm

    Im sure its simple

    With my QH the right side lower "pocket" had a small burr or weld splatter that some of my implements would connect fine. But my stump grinder just wouldn't without fighting. I at 1st thought one of the bushings was a bit big (it did measure .002" bigger than the others) A couple of stokes with...

    Pat's Easy change quick hitch

    I have a conventional QH that I bought at the local farm store on a black Friday sale for $199. It's made in India but has good weld's and seems as good as the Land pride QH15. All my implements are QH compatible. It's not an issue to hook them up. The QH mounts to the factory balls. Plus I have...

    Electric Car in your future?

    In the case of my Volt I have left it in plugged at a airport for 10 days in the dead of winter and had the exact same range in miles when I got back that I had when I left. I suspect that that jeep has an electrical issue...

    Very disappointed with my LX 2610

    To me the clue is the starter.... The tractor has a operator presence controller (OPC) that prevents the starter from operating as well as automatically shutting off the motor. Your dealer is on the right track but I don't thing digging deep enough. Yes the switches and the PTO switch...

    Very disappointed with my LX 2610

    I'm going to guess from your description that it's electrical triggering the Fuel shut off. The starter is my clue. Probably a safety switch or the operator presence module. I've had my LX2610 since 12/10/21 and have had only the clip for the left sway bar fall off. 52 hours on it and that's it...
