    Roll over angle L1500DT

    What kind of work were you doing on the slope? Were you on three wheels or not? It makes a big difference what implement you have on the back as to how they act on banks. It will help you quite a bit if you are in 4WD also and remember be ready to turn down the hill if it's possible to do so...

    Tool Box & Diesel Tank??????

    Good point to add in Handy. I throw this one other thing in also. I didn't know about this until I started looking at boxes over the net. They do make different ones for 1/2 and 3/4 ton trucks. The ones for 3/4 ton are about 3 or 4 inches wider than a box for a 1/2 ton truck. I think that either...

    Moving trees the Bulldog way

    Handy, My Granddad bought 5 of those from TVA that came off the raccoon mt job so I'm sure that your wifes uncle probably did spend some time either on one of them or at least around it anyway. I'll try my best to give you a call very soon. Been busier than a three peckered dog here lately but...

    You said a mouth full on that one. I really hated to see that happen. IH tractor are not what they used to be to say the least.

    Finally found one

    Thomasone, I have never tried the 10w30 diesel oil yet but I have a barrel on the way as we speak. I have always run the 5w30 HDD in my diesels so far but it really is expensive. But, if I loose all my MPG gain by changing over to the 10w30 I will switch back to the HDD. I gained 4 to 5 MPG...

    Tool Box & Diesel Tank??????

    You said it on the weatherguard boxes. My former boss put a aluminum weatherguard box in his truck and filled it full of tools. Wore that truck out and we put straps around it, lifted it out with a crain and set it in his new truck. Long story short, the tool box now is in the forth truck, not...

    I don't know anything about those drills except that they were working when they were put in the shed and that was at least 40 years ago.

    Moving trees the Bulldog way

    I figured you guys would appreciate that little nugget since most all of us like older toys as well as the new ones. Pat331, I would have to say that you are right on the money about some peoples strong following of IH heavy equipment. Alot of big construction companies started out with...

    Finally found one

    Finally, Another Amsoil believer. I can fully understand your faith in Amsoil and I had to prove it to myself as well. If I was you I would run the 30 weight oil. If you want the very best you can get go with the 5w30 HDD oil. Myself I am switching over to the 10w30 diesel oil in all my stuff...

    How BIG

    I have one that will hold about 150lbs of grass seed in it. I don't remember how much fertilizer it will hold but I used it on my B 7100 with no problem. If you know how much weight you tractor can handle safely with say a rottary cutter on the back then just keep that in mind when you start...

    Tool Box & Diesel Tank??????

    Hi Will, I have had steel and aluminum both and I prefer the alu tank better. The biggest reason is that there is no worry of rust with the alu tank. I have one in both my trucks now, a 55 gal. (L) step steel in one and a 110 gal. (L) step alu in the other. The ones with the tool box built in...

    Where to run 7610w/HST

    My thoughts on this is that the designers of the tractor intended on it being ran at the rated PTO speed when it is being used and the ground speed is to be controlled with the HST pedal. If they didn't want you to control the ground speed with the pedal it would have been a go or stop pedal for...

    Noise after transmission oil change

    I know that everybody has their own opinion about lubricants but that is one thing for sure that you get what you pay for. I would rather spend a few dollars more for a top grade oil that save a few bucks for now and then ultimately cost you in the end. Although I always warm my tractors up no...

    B7200 Overhheating Problem

    I know what you mean and I have the same problem at times. Most of the time if you wipe the dip stick clean and then check it it will have oil way up on the side that is facing the engine but if you turn the dip stick over and look at the oil level on the bottom side of the stick it will give...

    Grass catcher?

    It may not be what you want but they do work ok and are fairly cheap. Pull this behind you while you cut the grass and have the discharge going to the inside of your cut. When you get to the center what you haven't already picked up will be in one spot in your yard ready for pickup.

    Posthole Conundrum

    A joint project, shop vac, and a man that thinks he's going to win no matter if the wife is right or not. I hope this works out for you but it sounds like this situation has disaster writen all over it.

    B7200 Overhheating Problem

    I would say that handy is all over your problem. I went thru the same thing that you are going thru with my B 7100 and the radiator cap fixed my problem. If you haven't changed the antifreeze lately you should do that as well. Even though antifreeze won't freeze it does loose it's ability to...
