Two things I wished that I had bought the first day that I bought my house....my Kubota and my dump trailer. I've built up a lot of muscle and torn apart a lot of them I am sure, but since the purchases, productivity and my wife's Honey-do-List has grown substantially. Welcome to the Orange...

Glad it helped.

The 3pt cylinder lifts the MMM deck. The cylinder will of course bleed down with weight on it. I personally think three days is very acceptable. To prevent previously mentioned wear, which I have no idea if it would actually shorten life span of the lift cylinder's o-ring and backing ring, I...

Hi Dave, and welcome. The first thing with that knob is making sure when you turn it, it turns the shaft, and not just the plastic knob on top. It is notorious for cracking and then just spinning on the shaft. Remove the knob and turn with a pair of vice grips, or the like. See if that helps...

As RCW pointed out, the lower pins are in a terrible position. I lowered mine 3" and moved it forward (towards the tractor) 3/4-1". Those are 1" holes for those pins, so drill bits, a good 1/2" drill, and prayers that you don't rip you wrists off when the bit catches are in need. Good luck.

Not sure how old your tractor is, but it could be a few different things. I had to replace the 3pt cylinder o-ring and backer plate. I have 35 gallons of water on a 3pt carry-all with pressure treated lumber. 285+86+(~)40 lbs = 411 lbs. I can lift it to height, but it will drop slowly, maybe...

Skeets, I did this same thing a couple years back. At my house, a total of 31 trees dropped. The big oaks 85'+ were dropped by my friend's tree biz but I did the smaller ones and all the post work of bucking and chopping and splitting. No issues, no injuries. 17 cords. Got a call from my...

Just so everyone knows, I heard from Mark (Hodge) and he is no longer doing the adjustable links. Didn't want him to start getting hit with a bunch of emails because of this threads re-awakening. Thanks.

In warm weather, the first start of the only, i hold the glow plug on for 3-4 seconds then turn to start. Keeps down on the smoke quite a bit by doing this. When cold, ie: below 30-40 F`, I will hold for 8-10 seconds. Starts right up all the time. Smoke should only be for and instant to 1...

At idle, I am probably around 30-40 seconds for full lift. Bring it up a 1000 rpm and it drops to around 10. Also, when I swapped out my hydraulic connectors, I went with the Tractor Supply stocked ones. They have much bigger ports on them, and boy did it speed up everything moving. Lift...

Built mine similar to the rest. I attached a tank for spring planting so I could have water wherever I needed it as we planted out gardens. 12v pump running off an aux source on the BX powered the 5gpm of spray power. Perfect for working around the house where I don't have a hose source...

To answer your question that you asked twice: No. Without knowing what you are engaging, I can't tell if it the implement or pto that has a problem. Does it do it when nothing is attached to either mid or rear pto shafts?

If you get a chance to try a apple cider slushy, try it. It is uniquely delicious! I know they have it at the Red Apple Farm in Phillipston, MA, off of scenic Rte. 2. Rte 2 is beautiful ride from NY going east into MA. Above it is Rte 9, in VT, take that going East to West. Gorgeous roads...

Also Check eBay. They are always on there. -Gary

Price drop again to $800. Mounts to the 3pt in minutes vs. 15-20 mins. for the standard mounting. Bags are good condition. very good deal for someone who needs a bagger.

The price is in the ad title. $1000 to someone who needs a good unit.

Dropped the price. Some interest. Still available.

On comparison of the two pics, the impellers look the same. I am thinking it has to be a speed thing for the impeller. That is the only thing that makes sense to me.

The amount of suction for this unit is not like the cyclone rake, but still, definitely more powerful than what you are experiencing. I can rake leaves near the end of the chute and it will suck them in a shred them. Unless I mow too fast, it will always pull the grass up and out into the bag...

++++ SOLD ++++ I put up this Craigslist posting for anyone who might be interested in the area. I am in Massachusetts. Property is just too tight for turning. This is a Kubota BX Series PTO driven power bagger. This hooks onto the 3pt without having to remove arm or hard-fixing it to the...
