    Tractor Snow Plowing in Europe

    I recently stumbled upon some videos of guys plowing snow with tractors in Europe. They use giant tractors and plows on extremely narrow roads so they typically have only inches on each side of them. Pretty amazing, but I couldn't imagine doing this.

    Mower Deck Question

    I have the RCK60-30BB mid mount mower deck for my LX2610. Recently, I had it off to clean it up and grease it. When I was reinstalling the blades, two of them tightened up as usual but the one closest to the discharge side just turned the belt up top when trying to tighten it. Any idea what...

    LX2610/B2650 Oil Pan Bolt Torque Specs

    I have a very small oil leak on my LX2610 and it appears to be coming from the left side of the oil pan. I haven't hit anything with it and everything appears to be as it should, but I wanted to confirm the bolts are properly torqued prior to bringing it in for any warranty work. As always, any...

    Winter Tire Pressure for Plowing

    For those who use a plow or a snow pusher on a LX2610 sized tractor in the winter, what tire pressures do you run front and rear? Looking to maximize traction and steering while maintaining appropriate pressures for the weight of the loader/plow and ~500lbs of rear ballast.

    Attaching LA535 Loader with a Toothbar

    I know many of you never remove your loaders but for those who do, and also have a toothbar, do you need to remove the toothbar to reattach the loader? For the life of me, I can't get it to drop into the bracket with the toothbar on. Both the tractor and loader are in my garage with a concrete...

    Linkage Arm for MMM

    My wife was mowing recently and when she was done she found the front pin for the right side mower deck linkage arm in the yard. I'm guessing the cotter pin was not installed properly or somehow sheared off causing that to happen. To get the arm alligned and the pin back in, I needed to...

    Rear Tire Pressure for 14-17.5 R14T

    I was wondering what is a safe pressure to run 14-17.5 R14T's? The manual only shows the max pressure of 30psi but my neck and spine do not agree with that. I'm currently running them at 20psi but I'm wondering if 15psi would be acceptable or if that would be too low? The last thing I want is a...

    Wicked 55" Grapple Hose Routing

    I picked up my Wicked 55" grapple from the freight terminal yesterday and its construction is definitely as advertised. However, one concern that I have is how the upper hoses are routed to the cylinders on the sides. There is a 90+ degree bend and the hose is resting on the edge of a metal...

    Garage Floor Protection

    My garage floor is getting beat up from removing and installing the loader (I take it off when I need to mow). Anyone have any suggestions or ideas to prevent further damage?

    Breakaway Coupling Bracket for Rear Remote

    Found this on eBay and wanted to share with everyone. Along with an extra set of hoses running to an existing 3rd function valve, this seems to be an inexpensive way to add a rear remote for a hydraulic top link, snowblower chute control, etc. for folks who do not already have one...

    Twin Lid Grapple Under 300lbs

    As some of you know, I currently have a EA Wicked 55 grapple on order. Two reasons I went in that direction were that it is light weight for a small compact tractor and well built. However, for those interested in a twin lid setup under 300lbs for tractors 40hp and less, I came across this...

    Edit Redirects

    Multiple times this evening when I tried to edit a post I was redirected to an advertiser's website when I clicked on the save button. I understand the need for advertising but this functionality, if intended, is unacceptable.

    Salt, Seed and Fertilizer Spreader

    Does anyone know of a 3 point hitch spreader powered by either the rear pto or 12v that works well for both salt in the winter and seed and fertilizer in the fall/spring?

    LX2610HSD Rear Remotes

    Does anyone have factory rear remotes on a LX2610 without a cab? I'm wondering if they are tucked under the back or hung from the ROPS like the B2650 was.

    Pallet Fork Grapple

    So I've read in numerous places that pallet forks and grapples are often ranked as the top attachments that you can get for your tractor. I definitely have a need for a grapple as I have some land that I want to clear. I can also see the use of the pallet forks, especially for unloading new...

    Lx2610 / B2650 Minimum Three Point Hitch Height

    I noticed tonight that in the lowest position, the height to the center of the lower pins on my three point hitch (with quick hitch installed) is 16.75". That seems rather high to me but I was wondering if that is normal. Whats odd is that I have confirmed the quick hitch is level both front to...

    Quick Hitch Question

    I recently purchased a quick hitch and ballast box from Titan attachments. I assembled everything and added the required category 1 to category 3 bushings on the lower pins, attached it to the tractor and then added a bunch of rocks as they are plentiful on my property. No issues with any of...

    Reverse Alarm for LX2610 / B2650

    Since neither the LX2610 or the B2650 have reverse lights, is there any way to add a reverse alarm or is everything only mechanical? I know some people hate them but while plowing yesterday I really wished I had one in case people approached unexpectedly.
