Each of my drive units has a dipstick as well as the one under the seat.

You'll be fine with 3 - 5 gallons a minute. Just don't get crazy watering the lawn or washing multiple vehicles. Building our house living on-site in a mobile home we lived on 1 gallon a minute for several years. Had another well drilled when we moved into the house that came in at 3 - 4...

Have you checked the hydro fluid level? My zd21 has three dipsticks, I'm guessing the 326 is similar.

Looks good to me. Is it time to make an offer?

I don't charge friends, but neighbors and acquaintances are another story. With a friend you know the favor is going into the bank and will be repaid. With some neighbors it's all take and no give, they get charged after a few freebies. I'm old enough that I refuse to let people take...

I don't think you'll be happy using this stump grinder with a geared tractor. You'll be riding the clutch alot. I have HST. I ease into the stump, stop and let it grind for a few seconds until no chips are being thrown, then pull forward an inch or two and stop, let it grind, and repeat........

I lucked out, the pto slipped on the stump grinder shaft with no issues. I double checked the torque on my teeth with a 2 foot cheater bar on a large breaker bar, all where tight. I double checked them after grinding a few stumps and they have remained tight. As for the slip clutch, I set...

In my younger days I thought nothing of doing a 10 yard pour by myself, (redimix). I'm getting ready to do an 8 yard slab in two weeks and have already lined up 3 helpers.....

I blow out the radiator screen every time I refuel, or when I see the temp gauge reading higher than normal. That's worked well for my ZD for 20+ years. I also change the coolant every 4 years.

The expensive stuff, (about one third) is stored inside, another third is parked on a concrete pad and the remainder sits on pressure treated boards. The pt boards also keep things from sinking into the ground. I tried wood pallets but they rotted out after a couple of years. If you can...

Slow and steady with small bites. I agree the clutch is too tight, it needs to slip before taking out the tractor. Had a neighbor that ignored his slip clutch, he no longer has a working rear pto. The tractor needs to be split.....

We've always had Newfies, (double coat). They shed year round and really blow coat in the spring. They get brushed daily and we have a robovac running daily. At least once a week the robovac quits due to the hair buildup. The current rescue Newfie loves to be groomed, (good thing....). He's...

Well done, veggies under the cheese and meat on top, PERFECT. I'm going to try that cooking method with my grill/smoker.

Got mine last Friday as scheduled. Two hours to un-assemble the crate and put the chip guard, chainsaw bracket, adjust the clutch and put the PTO on. I've already ground a few stumps. Easily the best money I've spent in a long time. Time will tell, but I think this will do everything I need...

Mine is out for delivery right now. 8 business days from order to delivery.
