    Loader  16LA lift capacity to 48" high

    Hi, needing to know if I can lift a 275gal liquid tote (about 2800#) to about 4' high with my 16LA on a TC40D. I understand lift capacity to full height is 2000# at the pins, but can't find a spec or "real world" info on intermediate heights. Thanks in advance! -Matthew

    TC40D engine rpm for 540 PTO

    Just bought a "new to me" TC40D and noticed the tach isn't marked where to run engine speed to achieve 540 RPM on the PTO. Searched around for some images, but couldn't find anything clearly showing it on a NH or Case with the 2.0 Shibaura. Can anyone find that spec? Maybe on a TC40DA (newer...

    New Holland and new LS tractor engines

    So LS has their new "in-house" LS 3 cylinder engine now in the XR31 and XR41 series tractors which replaced the Shibaura 844 in the previous XR4040/4046 tractors (ie. Boomer 41 and 47, Case 40C and 50C). Curious to know if the LS engine will be standard in the future CNH tractors, or if the...

    H180 and other new H loaders

    Wondering if the H180 and other new H series compact tractor loaders have been improved over the 300 and 400 series that required periodic tightening of the loader-to-mast attaching points? The last couple of 300x loaders I used hadn't been tightened per the manual and you could shake the whole...

    Massey hydro HST pedals

    I've never run a HST Massey, but am looking. Owners: how do you like the suspended hydro forward/reverse pedals on the 1700 series? They look just like left/right brake pedals. Are they the same as on the 1500 and 1600 series, or floor mounted like JD's Twin-Touch pedals? I like the twin...

    New Compact Farmall 30a and 35a tractors

    Saw these on cih's website today. Appear to be an economy version of the Farmall 30c and 35c units. Supposing same as NH workmaster 33 and 37. Anyone have one or test driven one? Main reason I like these new LS built tractors is the Shibaura turbo engine. Thanks, Matthew

    Deere 4X20 upgrades in 2009

    Noticed on TractorData.com that there was a break in the 4X20 series compacts from 2008 to 2009. According to Tractordata's info on the 4720, "For the 2009 model year (tractor serial number 650001), the John Deere 4720 was upgraded with the eThrottle feature, increased engine power, and an...

    JCB Workmax 800D & 1000D

    Just browsing through some TractorHouse.com adds for diesel UTVs, found the "new to me" JCB 800D. I know they've had basically a "clone" of the JD 6x4 gator, but this new is built more like your mainstream modern UTVs. Independent suspension, Yanmar diesel, CVT, bucket or bench seat options...

    Husqvarna HUV 4421D jerky on take-off

    My dad's Husqvarna 4421D HUV has been really jumpy upon take-off in both forward and reverse. You either have to slam the throttle and jerk your neck, or try to feather it, and still jerk your neck! To me, it feels like the front 4x4 won't disengage, since the front tires grab all the time on...

    455 S/N location & Hydraulics

    Just bought a Deere 455. Factory serial number sticker is missing, but I know the number should be stamped somewhere on the frame. Can anyone advise? ALSO, is there a do-it-yourself way to lock out either the deck or 3pt. hitch independently of one another? i.e. raise and lower deck w/o...

    DX35 turn up fuel

    Has anyone turned up the fuel pump on a DX35 (larger frame)? I already know the potential consequences of that; just wondering how to do it and keep it idling right. Thanks!

    How to edit "Asking Price" field in classifieds?

    Hello, I recently posted a classified to sell our 2006 Gator HPX diesel. Now I want to reduce the asking price. I've already edited the text ad with an additional message dropping the price from $9500 to $9000. However, I want to reduce the price in the "asking price" field which is...

    Husqvarna HUV

    Hi, Has anyone had experience with the new Husqvarna HUV 4421D? We casually looked at one at a dealer yesterday, but did not have time for a test drive. What is the opinion about having the Kubota diesel engine directly under the riders' bench? Are heat and noise noticeable? From what I've...
