    Lift arms on 2350DT stuttering with auger attachment

    Check the PTO shaft as well. It is really long and if the inner and outer shafts don’t slide easily it could cause the problem.

    Steel T-Posts

    Well, you do have a tractor. A welder is part of the tools to support it. ;) I made a simple lightweight gate and welded nuts to the T-posts. It keeps our dogs out of the garden.

    Post hole digger for a B7100 - ROPS clearance is 2.5 inch

    It is a bit long. I have no problem digging and can dig at idle. Lifting power is what limits me, so I lift every foot or so.

    Post hole digger for a B7100 - ROPS clearance is 2.5 inch

    Those are the stock turf rims, I see NGP does not have the stock ROPS.

    Post hole digger for a B7100 - ROPS clearance is 2.5 inch

    Hi ngp, welcome. As NIW says, the end of the arm is tapered to fit. Here are a few photos. Does that answer your question?

    B7100 HST or B8200 gear for first tractor

    Hi Bear, I share your love for manual transmission vehicles. All our cars and trucks are manual and I’m concerned that is getting harder over time to get. However, for a tractor - let me confirm what others here say - the kubota hst is fantastic! Using the FEL or the tiller it is the best way...

    Lockwashers?

    It can even vary front to back - my B7100hst has tapered lug nuts on the rear and flat nuts with a lock washer and flat washer on the front. :unsure:

    You guys saved my bacon!

    That’s a great idea to heat to a controlled temperature. Maybe run the stove hood next time? :)

    Should moderators be elected by membership?

    Wow, I’m trying to imagine what running for election as site moderator would even look like. It seems a recipe for division and conflict. I appreciate the servant leadership we have had on OTT so I vote no. I appreciate the idea being brought forward - always good to evaluate what we have. Thanks

    Any opinions on: Powerhorse 3-Pt. Horizontal/Vertical Log Splitter

    I think you will be happy with that decision. If you ever wear out the engine you could replace it with a single cylinder diesel...

    Is getting a tiller worth it?

    I agree with the 4’ tiller for the work you describe. Another benefit is the counter weight it provides if you have a heavy load in your FEL.

    B series backhoe guys

    Her you can see the anti-rotation plate. You can see it points toward the PTO.

    B series backhoe guys

    I don’t have a good photo but I can say that mine just bolts to the pump not the tractor. Connect the PTO and the bracket is captured by the PTO shield to keep the pump from rotating. I’ll snap a photo of it in the morning.

    B219 on B7100 Removal Tips/Tricks?

    Hi Lil Foot, I first Thought you were removing your backhoe but the B219 is your FEL. Is it basically self contained? Pump off the front of the engine and hydraulic fluid in the arm? If so it will just be a lot of bolts to remove and an overhead hoist or gantry to relieve the weight. I am...

    Implement Process for Preparing New Land

    Are you planning to do all 5 acres at once or can you work it a bit at a time? A small tractor will take some time but you may not want 5 acres of bare dirt. Consider a subsoil plow and then maybe a tiller. Work it over time and get to know your new land.

    Extra Security Protection

    How far away is this property? You haven’t mentioned why a trailer to keep the tractor with you isn’t being considered. How frequently are you on site?
