My 23-year old Sabre lawn tractor (manufactured by John Deere) is on it's 4th battery (including original) and there is an Everstart from Wal-Mart in there now; about 7 years old and still going strong, The Everstart is the longest-lasting battery I've had in there yet, and it's pretty hard to...

I've been looking myself for a UTV and have narrowed to down to....Polaris Ranger. I considered Can-Am Defender as well, along with the Kubota. Decided against the Kubota as it was diesel, seems like Polaris has a much bigger dealer presence than Can-Am. I was definitely more interested in a...

The US spent a ton of $$$ to properly disassemble & render safe Soviet nuclear submarines after it was discovered that their method of disposal was to sink them in the ocean just off their (& other countries) coast(s). Now, the Russians are building submarines that are solely intended to...

Looking at the 'two plates' mentioned by @DustyRusty, it's easy to see how the 'teeth' (engagement lugs?) machined into each of the plates have an angle to them, which appears to be intended to keep the teeth engaged. The two plates could have been designed with flat-faced 90-degree teeth, but...

B2601 owner here with a new set of winter covers from bird dogger. Very nice fit & finish on the covers, EZ acquisition as well. Thanks David! :) (y)

@DustyRusty, with your 20+ years of BX snowblower experience can I hear your recommendation for a very nice used BX/front snowblower combination including: a) BX model/yr; b) blower model/generation; and c) jump-at price? I'm dipping my toes into that market, TIA :)

It's surging 'cuz the word is out that we're figuring out the front snowblower problems! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

@GreensvilleJay said..... "As designed you should ( are supposed to ??) lower blower down, engage PTO,increase RPM to max,use it, reduce RPM to idle, disengage PTO, move to next location, repeat as required. This sequence should make the coupling last longer, but as designed,sooner or later, it...

IMO using a tractor on hilly terrain presents its own challenges; by adding slippery wintery conditions you are amplifying the problem. Chains can help in mitigating the problem, but some rear ballast would also be desirable. I am in the same situation, contemplating acquiring a snowblower or...

Saw this on the back of a Toyota Prius in front of me the other day.... "Cool Prius!" --said nobody

I agree with @19thSF , I don't remember a grease fitting on my B2601 treadle pedal. 75th Ranger Regt here @poor Bob :) (y)

Do you have a third function valve on your tractor? If you've taken off a quick-attach (SSQA) bucket (not pin-on, SSQA (Skid Steer Quick Attach, assumed to be almost standard on a 2021 B2610)) then your bucket curl cylinders won't work your blade angle, just curl/dump the blade assembly. If...

I wondered that myself; I guessed an engine block & sticky wrap on the F tires to prevent 'steer' marks on the new concrete.

Nice analysis & write-up. The only thing I would have added would be ID numbers imposed onto the pics to be sure that the order that they appear in the thread is the same as you intended with your picture reference numbers; I believe that occasionally the pictures can be displayed out of order...

I'm in agreement with @ve9aa, I'd look at auger & impeller shear bolts. This assessment is made based on the noise appearing once snow is introduced into the auger housing.

While researching front-mounted snowblowers a while back I found a video on YouTube posted by GP Outdoors in which he did just as you were contemplating. I have no link for the vid but should be easy to find - good luck! :)

Check air inlet for obstructions; snowplowing sometimes introduces snow buildup on the air filter. See this thread: https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/threads/air-filter-clogged-with-snow.48529/

I routinely 'overdose' my diesels with fuel treatment(s) since it states on the container label that there's no downside to larger added quantities. I believe it's necessary to get the treated fuel introduced to the entire fuel system to ensure adequate protection. As far as warm-up idling, I...
