So, I have a Deere 5085e and use with a Deere MX-8 pull type cutter. I want something wider to cut with. Mostly pastures and some hills. Can I get away with a 15ft cutter or do I need to stick with a 12ft? Look at the Deere MX-15, Woods, Bushhog or Landpride. Thanks, Scott

Hi, I have a Deere 1565 mower with a rear discharge I really love. The problem is I can't get a vacuum for it because everything works off a side discharge collector. Does anyone know of a vacumm or attachment for one that works on a pull behind that just sucks up the grass? Several companies...

This is for anyone who has a pull type MX8 or MX10 cutter. When you make sharper turned, do you get noticeable vibration from the pto shafts? I don't know if it is normal or something I should have looked at. I don't get any vibration when it is straight. I bought it used so I don't have a...

Does anyone here have a 553 ladder with aux hydraulics installed on it? If so, would you mind take some pictures of the ends and how the lines are run on it? I would really appreciate it. I'm trying to add that to mine to run a grapple, but having a hard time figuring out just what I would...

So, I just received me new 2013 5085e (it was NOS) with cab. Have always had an open station tractor with normal transmission, there is a lot to get used to, especially that power reverser! :) One thing I'm finding a little awkward to get used to is having to go around to get into the cab to...

So I am getting loose on a 5085e (upgrading from a 5303). Still haven't decided between cab and open air. I do have a couple of questions. Is the DEF only on the 15+ models? The 13 & 14 still have the exhaust filters though, correct? How often do you change/clean? On the cab model is...

I have found a used 5085e I am considering. Theo only problem is it has a Global attachment carrier. Everything I have for my current loader is the 500 mount. Does anyone now if they make an adapter to use my 500 attachments the global carrier? Thanks, Scott

Looking at a new 5075e or 5085e to replace a 5303. Kicking around getting a cab this time. Never owned one before and would like to get some options on owning a tractor with a cab. The three things I am concerned about are: 1. having to constantly clean the cab from dust or dirt to see...

I need to new mower that cuts 72" I have a lot to cut around ,so I was looking at either the 997 or the 1447. We currently have an older F725. It doesn't get around the best if it is wet or on the hills. Has anyone owned either of the two and have opinions as to how they get around on hills...

Getting the 455 and MC519 out and ready to go and I thought I would ask some other owners their options on blades. I have the 60" deck on my 455 and was wondering if anyone has experimented with blades and what type work best with the blower and the MC519. I'm using the standard blades, but I...

Hi all, after the glowing recommendations I saw on this board for the Ultraseal tire product you can get at Gemplers, I decided to try it. Man that stuff works great. I have a lot of problems with locust thorns, but not since ultra seal. For my situation that stuff works great. On a said...

I have a question for any of you running a 455 (or similar) with a 60deck and a powerflow unit. I recently pickup a new unit for a dealer that was clearing out some old inventory. I was complete except the instructions. I've got it all figured out except for one thing. There was a short...

I;ve got a 3320 I'm thinking about getting a belly mower for. THere are several used ones around with very little time on them. Got a few questions for anyone using a belly mower on the 3320. -Besides the mid-PTO kit, is there anything else I need? -Do they make a 72" drive over model that...

So I am getting real close on pulling the trigger on a used 3520 with 320 hours or a 3320 with 223 hours.PRice is pretty similar (3520 is $1k more) Both are open, no a big fan of cabs. Has anyone else compared these two. IS the power difference between the two that noticeable? Most of what i...

So I am really close to pulling the trigger on a 3320 with low number of hours on it. I thinking about getting a belly deck for it. I have some questions about it. First, is all I need the mid PTO kit to add it? Does the PTo kit get you the quick disconnect? Can I add any deck that will work...

So I think it is time to upgrade my old 670. It just doesn't have enough power to really handle my bush hog that well. So I am looking for a newer tractor, probably a used one in the 30hp range. Here is where I'm having a hard time and would be appreciated any input you all might have. So in...

I got a used MC519 for my 455. It didn't come with an attachment for the 455. So, my question is for anyone who has this setup, do I just need two bolts(with some type of spacer) for the two holes in the side the the hitch bracket for the MC519 to attach to? IS is there another bracket I...
