I bought a new PD65 w/ 12" auger this past spring since we had a ton of fencing to get in. The replacable cutting blades have lasted aprox. 80-90 post but a few weeks ago with only few more post to do that weekend there was a significant drop off in "cutting" performance. To finish out the...

Kuhn North America, Inc: - Hay in a Day

Yep, you read that right. I am rather irritated at myself for having gone so long without catching it. Actually I did think noticed something "strange" with the rim off set a little while back but I was on my way out of the house and I honestly never got back to looking at it. So with having...

According to the manual there is two drain plug, one looks like it is on the side of the mid mount PTO (which I don't have a mid mount PTO). However, the tractor acutally only looks to have one large plug towards the rear on the tranny case. Is this correct? I just drain the fluid using the...

Never seen one of these in person before. Didn't even know there was one local. I sat and watched him finish up the field, pretty neat machine. It seems just as much a "truck" as it does a tractor. It sounded as if it had air assisted hydraulic brakes on it. I belive it was a JCB Fastrac...

My profile is linked to another user named Mark_R who aparently hasn't been online for few years. Can mod. correct this issue for me? I can update my profile (mark.r) but I have no idea if any changes are being saved because apparently they are being save under Mark_R. Please help, thanks. Mark

I'm looking at using the following setup for the internal frame for a rear 3pt. counter weight. Now, I am trying to keep in simple and looking to just build a wooden "box" around the drawbar and up to just below the point where the top link attaches to the "A" frame and then pouring...

Strange issue. If I roll the bucket back while it's sitting on the ground and then go stand on the cutting edge, the bucket will flex up and down as if it is being dumped. It won't go through the full dump/roll back cycle but only a about 6-8 inches. My question is, is this a symptom of low...

I thinking about getting sprayer that requires a 12volt power source for the pump. Any good recomendations on the easiest/best location to tap that source?

I spent considerable time and money reseeding, fert. and liming all of my pastures this spring. All went well so far. All of them were either in good shape or were put into good shape. All were generally weed free as well. The largest one, the one in question in this post however all of a...

I came across a few articles on some mid-size ag tractor articles that were of special interest to me as the fit right in the size and hp level where I would like my next tractor to be. I have given JD a once or twice over but they have never really tickled my fancy, mainly on price I guess...

Does anyone have a line on pallet forks that fit the Q-tach set up on the KL401 loader? Calling Mr. Wallace . . . Rick, do you carry any?

With the weather finally starting to become more enjoyable and bearable for that matter and finally being able to get some seed, fertilizer, etc. spread I am starting to get spring/summer fever. I was online looking at some haying pictures and found some pretty neat ones. I was REALLY...

For those of you that bale straw as well as hay, what is your process? Meaning I know the difference between the two (hay and straw) but when you bale your straw so start out from the beginning with goal of baling straw? For example, do you plant oats, wheat, etc. and then are your renting...

Well add another "check mark" to the list of thinks I've done with this tractor. I am certain to add a second, larger tractor in a couple years but I have to say this size/hp tractor is a great combination. Long story short, soil test came back this week and needs lots of lime, decent amount...
