We have a mountain property where the driveway is a little over half a mile, so I definitely like the idea of not having to drive backwards to clear the snow. Because this is not our residence, I often get behind the snow accumulation — to the point that I l cannot get my JD 4720 up the...
How is that blower mounted and driven? Is it PTO driven, or hydraulic, or something else? Thanks for the good report. I live in the mountains of Utah. I have a rear mounted PTO driven blower and it performs quite well, but it's a literal pain in the next. I'm looking for ideas on a front...
I'm wondering if any of you have tried this post hole digger. Hydraulic earth drill Jansen HBG-200 Auger - Jansen USA
I've tried a regular three point hitch mounted PHD and it's just not got what it takes to get through my rocky soil. I'm looking for an effective solution as I've got quite a...
I have fuel leaking out (practically running out) from above my fuel filter. It's coming out around the fuel filter primer pump. I'm planning to replace the fuel filter today, but will that do the job or are there other seals in that fuel pump assembly that I need to look at replacing?
I have heard of people running a tow rope off of the tractor's PTO to pull people up a hill for tubing back down the hill. Have any of you done anything like this? Any suggestions of how this could be accomplished?
So, the other day I was pulling out some sage brush with my scraper when the post or bolt or pin (or whatever it's called) to which the arm of my three point hitch attaches to the tractor frame broke off. Not good. Can anyone help me find the part number (or even the correct name) for this...
The short version:
When I turn the key on my 4720, the dashboard lights flash. Same thing happens if I try to turn on the lights. Nothing else happens. Any suggestions on how to diagnose this problem?
The long version, or, how I probably caused this problem:
The tractor started fine...
I thought this question might have been answered previously but several minutes of search have not yielded an answer. I am wondering whether my 4720 with a 400x loader can lift 1850 lb. hay bales high enough to stack them three high. That would put the bottom of the highest bale at 8 feet...
I have a 4720. I have about 30 acres that needs to be mowed. It's partially covered with sagebrush, much of it with a diameter between 2" and 4". It seems to me that the ideal implement would be something similar to the JD 709 Rotary Cutter. It has a min. hp requirement of 45 and the 4720...
Has anyone here installed a Power Beyond Kit on a JD 4x20 or similar model? I am thinking about getting the kit but the installation price being quoted by the dealer is more than the price of the kit itself . . . ugh. If it's not terribly complicated and doesn't require a bunch of specialized...
After taking half an hour last night to get my rear blade detached, I'm thinking hard about a quick attach system of some kind and looking for recommendations.
I'm not keen on extending the length of the draft links any more than necessary, but I would like a system that will work with as...
Well, I went ahead and bought the snowblower.
I decided to go with the 67" meteor. Some of you may recall that's the one that my dealer had left over from last year. He sold it to me for $1399.
Ideally I would have liked to have gotten a 74" model but everyplace I called priced them around...
Do any of you have experience with the various different rear blade manufacturers and can offer your thoughts? Local dealers have General Implement, Rhino, Landpride. I expect my Deere dealer would also have Frontier.
Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks.

Well the dealer called this afternoon to tell me my new 4720 has arrived. They'll finish getting it set up this afternoon and tomorrow morning and I'll probably be picking it up around mid-day tomorrow.
I was talking to the dealer about the power beyond for the backhoe. He didn't order the...
