    Won’t start

    thanks for the feedback. I think a tarp with a space heaters a good idea. I’ll look into that today... in the last week it’s gotten down to the high teens for temperature maybe 18 or 19 degrees... warms up to the 30s during the day.

    Won’t start

    Hi, looking for some help. I have a 2015 B26 TLB, I live in Utah and it’s just gotten cold. I’ve only had the tractor for two winters. Last winter I stored it in a friends barn.

    Grease Zerks

One guy was heating/warming the pin and zerk with a torch...he was talking like the issue is not the zerk but that the grease in the joint is old and stiff...heating it up helped it to un-gel and allow the new grease to displace it. I don't think I like the...

    Grease Zerks

    I didn't realize some of the pins could be under pressure and therefore not take grease.

    Rotary Cutter

    I just read you want 5 pto HP per foot of rotary cutter...so 4' cutter approx 20 pto HP 5' cutter 25 pto HP..so maybe your right. I also read it can depend on the cutter itself...heavier duty cutter blades 1/2" thick or more (heavier blades) take more pto HP to move

    Rotary Cutter

    Hi Newbie here, I just bought a used B26. I need to do some mowing of tall weeds (like 6 ft plus) on an acre. I'm looking for a rotary cutter. I'm just a home user, so I don't need something super commercial grade. I'm looking at my local Cal Ranch.. they have a 5 foot cutter made by TARTAR I...

    Recommendations for retaining wall work
