$4k? A good, new, box blade is about that much! What a great find.

I thought about a ditch mower but ended up compromising, got a flail with hydraulic side-shift. Doesn't go out as far as a ditch mower but allows me to mow the edges of ditches; I also can run bigger for most of my mowing needs. (7' Novatractors on my NX5510; running on the big side of things...

For me off-road even WITH tax is cheaper. And this includes delivery.

I have both. Smaller tractor, B7800, is open station and is great for doing jobs that I'm having to work in nasty situations (indestructible tractor; I go slamming into lots of stuff with it- my initial attack machine); getting on and off is quick. My larger tractor, NX5510, is cabbed and I...

It's not rpms that determine if a regen happens but that running low rpms a lot will result in the need for more frequent regens. Hopefully people know to make sure that when regens run that they ensure the then current rpms are kept up to above the required minimum (I think on my Kioti it's...

Regarding the symbols... One is that the front of the tractor is on fire and the other is that the tractor's cabin is on fire! I _believe_ that one is for passive regeneration and one is for parked regeneration. Passive regens means you can keep working the tractor, with rpms at a minimum...

I burn incense. NEVER had a problem! :LOL: Does condensation occur? Yes, but not to the degree that people might believe. The small amounts that do happen should readily be handled by proper filtration systems: I have a water filter on my bulk storage tank and my Kioti has a water sensor...

When I'd gotten my Kioti I was struggling with water in my fuel: fortunately the warning light was always caught right away. I checked fuel from everything, my tank, and all other equipment that used fuel from my tank. ZERO traces of water. Turned out that it was a crappy/cheap locking fuel...

Not sure how accurate this is but it seems that not all Ford vehicles are using such wiring: https://www.motorverso.com/which-cars-have-soy-based-wiring/#list

If there's a zerk then there's a way to get some penetrating fluid inside. I'd just keep forcing penetrating fluid in: eventually it'll work. Not that this alone will do the job but it'll be one "tool" to apply. I've had to do this (yeah, on a Kubota).

What kind of inclines are you talking about? Sales folks will tell you that these things only can operate under x% slope: can't recall what it is.

I have a LandPride toothbar on my B7800. This combination is impossible to mess up: I've popped and bent the toothbar but the bucket didn't bend- was driving hard against a big trunk [on the ground] at an angle. Have ripped and dug like a mad man: I've done stuff I won't discuss here. I...

I've been operating with an un-level loader on my Kioti since day 1. I had it at the dealers and they told me they replaced the loader: I never got any proof they did, no serial numbers or anything. The "replacement" was the same. I do believe, however, that they replaced one of the cradles...

If you get NO power then it's a connection issue. On my Kioti I've got this connector off of the positive side of the battery cable that I discovered is a bit flaky. For the first time ever I went to start the tractor after just having it running and it wouldn't crank, I had NO power to the...
