    New season, hummingbirds back

    Avid bird watcher here, western MA....Hummingbirds arrive mid-May every year, I use Droll Yankees hummingbird feeders, best design I've seen (my third feeder style). I use table sugar and water (not too strong!) and they LOVE it.......Usually a male will 'claim' the feeder as his own and stand...

    Advice for new tractor owner.

    Welcome! Great tractor choice! Do you have any implements/attachments already? (Front End Loader (FEL), backhoe, etc) Depending on what the 'weeds' are, and with your plans for a tiller, be sure to size the selected implement/attachment correctly; it should be 'matched' to the tractor's power...

    Grappling with this...

    Based on the fact that the OP's tractor is a 2012, would it be proper to assume that it currently has a pin-on bucket (instead of a SSQA)? If that was the case, I'd recc the SSQA conversion and then a suitable SSQA grapple; many excellent brands already mentioned. SSQA Land Pride SGC0554...

    Saker Grease Gun Coupler vs. LockNLube

    My 'amazon' L&L came with a repair kit; I'll admit I bought it on a recommendation, never looked for comparable alternatives. Once you lock it on get pumping' cuz it works great!(y)

    Smart guys and gals

    I was finding bird crap all over the doors to my truck, I couldn't figure out why both doors were getting crapped on. One day I saw a cardinal 'fighting' his reflection in my truck's door rear view mirror, crapping like mad as he gave it to the reflection. :ROFLMAO:

    V2403-CR-T-EF04 vs V2403-CR-EF02

    Interesting situation; I assume that the two engines are more or less identical? But, your tractor engine has a turbo? Would that mean that one engine was 'rated' for a higher power? Obviously, the generator would be run at a steady constant RPM while running, other than minor fluctuations...

    B2601 Loader Control Lever Linkage Cleaning/Lubrication

    Does anyone know how the loader control lever linkage system is cleaned & lubricated? I read both loader & tractor manuals, they both agree that it must be done yet neither seems to list the procedure. TIA :)

    Oil not dirty

    The biggest reason for diesel engine oil to turn black is the use of an EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) system in on-road diesel engines. With all the soot in diesel exhaust it turns the oil black in no time. Some HD Diesel engine oils (perhaps most, actually) are designed to deal with soot...

    DEF---DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID

    DEF is injected into a device known as an SCR (Selective Catalyst Reductant) which is like a catalytic converter (of sorts) which uses the DEF fluid and high temperature to convert nitrous oxide (a diesel exhaust by-product) into water and nitrogen. In my Ram Cummins diesel truck, the SCR is the...

    It's only new once.....

    XSpecBx, any news on the backhoe? I really wanna contact my dealer for an update on when it's arriving, just don't want to be a PITA. It's only been a little over a month for me waiting, but the list of jobs for the BH keeps growing! :rolleyes:

    What type of motor oil?

    Looked but could not find any Rotella. Instead, I did find 15W-50 Delvac Synthetic for $22/gal. Looks awesome, going to use it in the Kubota. I've used plenty of Mobil 1 full syn for several vehicles, I think the Delvac (Diesel Engine Lubricant Vacuum Process, I think) will be excellent for...

    Quick hitch brand

    Sorry to hear about the list of disappointments....I would not be satisfied with that level of service. I totally understand you not wanting to be a 'nuisance customer' but your not getting what you ordered. Did you ask why the switch on the QH? Did you check the price of the Bobcat QH...

    LP SGC0548 48" Grapple compatible with new B2601?

    I wondered the same thing myself about not being listed as compatible/recc'd for B2601. I wondered about the small differences between it & the 60" version. At this point it's working flawlessly and I'm grateful for the slightly smaller footprint. I've done some back raking (it's in the...

    LP SGC0548 48" Grapple compatible with new B2601?

    One month into B2601 / SGC0554 ownership.....My salesman, a very knowledgable tractor guy, reccomended the 54" for the B2601. I was thinking 60" initially, didn't even consider the 48". I too wanted a narrower grapple for maneuvering in the woods. The 54" does not open as wide as the 60" and...
