    Newbie question regarding a land pride cutter

    When I change from my box scraper to the rotary cutter, if I do not remember to lengthen the top link the cutter will vibrate like crazy if I lift it up all the way. If I lower it to the ground everything is OK. Does yours vibrate in any position you set it in or just one?

    Whining

    There are three possible ways. 1) use a jack to roll the tractor on it's side. 2) go cross slope on a steep hill and it should roll on it's side all by it self. 3) if you are real close to your tractor, start by scratching it's side just in front of the rear tires, it should roll over on its...

    Need tire

    On my L275, the front has 7.0-16 from the factory. 4ply tires is what came on it. When I replaced them I put 6ply on because of the FEL and that made an enormous difference. For me, 10 ply would be extreme over kill. What type of tractor and model number do you have? What is the factory...

    Should be a permanent link on the front page to point new/perspective tractor owners to so they could read it then ask more informed questions.

    bigger commercial fuel nozzles

    I hate the small nozzles even for filling up s pickup. Around me, they have the flow throttled back almost to a trickle so the little old ladies and idiots texting on their phones won't pump as much fuel on the ground instead of paying attention to what they are doing.

    bigger commercial fuel nozzles

    Where I am, the rate at which fuel comes out of the large nozzles very greatly from one pomp to another. I have that funnel and have used it a couple of times and yes it is a PITA but you can fill a 5 gal can. I also have a funnel that will hold about 2 quarts and has a foot long neck and necks...

    bigger commercial fuel nozzles

    Get a large funnel with an opening just small enough to fit inside your fuel cans with a large reservoir on top. Shouldn't be more than a couple $ at an auto parts store. $1.99...

    Tractor won't start

    "It can be "hotwired" to start but i can't seem to run down the cause of the problem. Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated." " The battery is reading about 11.7v and we were able to get it started with the ignition switch while being jumped but after that we were unable to repeat that."...

    Rimguard Install

    Arundel in York County. Those prices were from Wescott & Sons, 500 Ossipee Trail Gorham, ME. I don't think they like me, I have made offers on tractors and implement from them several times before and as yet, I have purchased neither from them. I have bought the same implement from other...
