    Clicking sound from PTO B7100

    It makes the sound with or without an attachment on it. I was mowing when it started. If I get into some heavy grass, the click goes away, for a little bit. At first I thought it was the PTO hitting something or a stick got caught somewhere and was rubbing. I just greased everything...

    Clicking sound from PTO B7100

    I have a clicking sound that just started when the PTO is running. It is not there when the PTO is off. When I put it in the PTO speed 2, the clicking is faster, and PTO 3 it is even faster? Does anyone have any thoughts? From looking at a parts diagram, it looks like there is a bearing that...

    Value of a one bottom plow

    Thanks for the information. I was excited to see the cutting wheel and a guide wheel too. We will see how low he will go. Most likely he will be willing to take some cash and trade the rest for produce or maybe all produce, who knows. We just need to settle on a price, your information will...

    B7100D trencher info

    Does it look like this? It is a creeper gear set up for the trencher. I have it on my tractor too. I don't have a trencher for it, but it is a factory installed add on. There are not too many B7100 tractors out there with this creeper gear. Don't know if that is good or bad, but since you...

    lifting hay bales with BX

    I have a B7100 and I have moved several 3.5 foot tall by 5 foot wide round bales with it, out of necessity. We have a 4-H steer and a heifer each year for our kids to show. I had my brother and dad bale up some small bales for us to feed each year. I move about 3 bales a year. With that...

    Bent attachment rod on 3 point

    Actually, my check chains are on the outside. They are at then end of the rod. Chin: The cheater bar analogy is correct. I will try to keep them more loose. Jay

    Bent attachment rod on 3 point

    I got everything hooked up tonight and used it with the new rod my neighbor made for me. It works fine. My biggest surprise is how tight the check chains/turnbuckles were. I had to loosen them a bunch to hook up the 3 point. My question is, could I have bent this rod by tightening up the...

    Bent attachment rod on 3 point

    Here is the rod. I put the edge of the rod flush with the edge of the 2 by 4 to show how much was bent. Glad I took the time to replace it. Jay

    Bent attachment rod on 3 point

    Finally took the time to pull this rod out and it was bent worse than I thought. I talked to a neighbor who works at a machine shop and asked him if he could make me one. He stopped by and took a few measurements and came back 1 hour later with a completely new shaft. Took off the tire and...

    Tiller size question

    I run this 56 inch tiller behind my B7100, it doesn't have a problem. I know I am working my soil much more than you will for food plots, so I don't see a problem. Take it slow and don't go too deep. Here is a video of the B7100 tilling with this tiller...

    Trading Tillers

    Use the tiller for the first time today since last November and it ran like a top. The 7100 had plenty of power and never really bogged down except once or twice and I looked back and it had dug in so deep it was pulling a full box of soil. It worked much better since I ran my soil ripper...

    Are Landpride implements worth the extra money?

    This is very true. If you aren't in a hurry and don't mind looking or making an alert to let you know when someone posts something you are interested in, you can find good deals. I spent close to 9 months looking for a tiller. There were some that were cheap, but beat up and then there were...

    Are Landpride implements worth the extra money?

    Personally, I wouldn't go out and buy a brand new anything. There are so many people who do, then realize that they don't need an implement and sell it. I have been able to pick up many implements for half price, or less because of this. I bought a Landpride 54 inch box blade for $200. If...

    Chain or gear drive tiller?

    This is such a strange discussion, one that comes up all the time. Most say gear driven is a "higher-end, more expensive" however, I have only seen gear driven on the lowest priced King Kutter models. Many say that Landpride is a "More Expensive, better quality tiller", but they are...

    Paul: Won't disagree with you at all. It would be much, much smaller. Thanks for confirming my thoughts.

    Trading Tillers

    I currently have a Caroni FL1400 tiller, it is 56 inches wide. I have been using this on my B7100. According to their website, it will work for this tractor. It is in almost new condition. I bought it used last August. I found on craigslist a Bushhog RTS 40, it is a 38 inch wide tiller...

    Irrigation line pipe puller

    I wore watches all the time growing up. Probably until my late 20's. Then I started having a cell phone and the watch went away. I just don't like wearing them now. But never had a wind up watch, only battery powered ones. Funny you ask, my debit and credit cards always seem to stop working...

    Irrigation line pipe puller

    You can "Witch" for waterlines and even sewer lines if they have water in them. All you need is two 3 foot pieces of 9 gauge wire or even coat hangers. Bend them into an "L" shape and and hold one, loosely in each hand, point them in front of you. Walk across the area you are going to want to...
