Three or four years ago, I was given an LED Lenser H7 headlamp for Christmas. I found it to be a real handy light when using both hands, it can be aimed right where I look.

I happened upon an old Ford one arm loader, I think it is for sale if there's an interest for one. I don't know what models they fit or what they're worth. I didn't ask what he wanted for it, the man said he used to own a Ford 2000, don't know if it was on that tractor.

Hopefully someone here has dealt with this. I've searched for governor adjustment and all I can find deals with engine RPM. The problem I'm having on my BCS 735 is with the response of the governor as the load changes. If I'm running along and hit a tough spot, that requires more power, the...

Is it real? The last couple of days the TV has had a segment on the bedbug infestation that they lead us to believe it's almost an epidemic. I don't know anyone who has them, and nothing on the local news about them, so I'm thinking it must be more media sensationalism. Anyone seen the problem yet?

At least compared to my old 141. Picked up a 346XP tuesday and got to make a few cuts with it in seasoned Ash. It is like night and day compared with my other saw. Made a couple of cuts in a downed green Oak and the thing just falls through the wood. I'm thinking, money well spent.

Can\'t believe a friend would do this. I have a friend that I've worked with 15 years and have known him for 38 years. He called me the other night and wants me to come and look at what he just bought. He's done this before when he's bought motorcycles and when he bought his ZD18, then a B7500...

Got a three year old BX2200 and right after the warranty expired, so did the seal on the fuel gauge sending unit. It was leaking fuel onto the inside of the left rear tire if I filled the tank, even if I left it less than full it would stay wet on the left side of the tank from the fuel...

well, it has happened and of course it is out of warranty. after i fueled, and mowed for a short while, i noticed fuel on the inside of the left rear tire, went and purchased the fuel gauge unit for the tank, now the question. has anyone replaced this at home, how difficult is it? I talked to...

Tinkering around and came up with a solution to sticks and things getting hydro-filter or hydro fan. I know it's not a skid plate but should stop stuff from heading in the direction of the vulnerable soft stuff.

I have found that I have a few forums that are my favorite, and I thought I had figured out how to add them to my favorite list. When I go to my favorite list, it's empty. Is this feature operational, if so how do I log on and have one of my favorite forums open? It is probably really simple, I...

Anyone know what this is, if you do, you're telling your age

My brother has a 2145 with Onan engine, if he stops the mower deck after he uses it a short time, it will not reengage till it cools down. Electric pto clutch at dealer is an arm and a leg. Is there anywhere to find these other than dealer. Dealer is talking in the $250 range.

Lucky driver

I copied this from another post on TBN, solution for soot on loader arms. It worked but the poprivets that hold it on would vibrate loose, so I fixed it.

I was checking out some chippers and the Salsco 824 looks like a quality unit, anyone here have one? The DR unit looks to be light duty compared to this one, and the Chinese chipper is too heavy for my tractor, plus there's a whole thread on keeping it together. What kind of price is the Salsco?

Got an invitation in the mail from Ward Impliment where I bought my tractor, they're having a springding thing the last weenend in April, with 15% off parts. He's also a Woods dealer so I asked about a toothbar, he couldn't find the listing for one in his books. Does anyone have the Woods part #...

Can someone give me some specs on the B7800, a dealer told a friend of mine that it is 30 hp. Seems high to me. Price, new hydrostat, FEL, 72"MMM, seat w/armrests, R1 tires,$16900

All this fine weather and I can't get no seat time. Got some good stuff for the pain, but I can't find anything to help with the tractor withdrawls.

Just got my new catalogue from Northern Tool and lo and behold on pg 55, is it Pats Quick Hitch?

Had the tiller out for the first time last week. First time I've used it, since it's so heavy, I wondered if I could pull it. Well it works just fine if I don't try to run fast. Does a good jop tearing up the soil on first pass, and really goes deep on second pass.

Was thinking about getting one of these, anyone have one like it, guess I'd have to use it outside the garage.

I don't know where to post this, but here goes. At the farm show, I was looking at the Bx 23 cruise control, and was thinking this would work on my BX 2200. Anyone know the parts I would need to make this work?

Well tomorrow is ash wednesday,and I was trying to find something to give up. I was reading the post on Pats Quick Hitch, and thught..... Naaahhhhh, no way could I do that.

I needed some bucket forks to move some chunks of wood left from logging, and also to move some utility poles left when new ones were put up. I found some scrap metal and all I had to buy was a piece of chain and some grade 8 bolts, I used some of the linkage from the stabilizer links that I had...

was only there for a couple of hours.

Went to an auction today an watched an International 234, 2wd with only 715 hrs. go for $2450.00. It was really cherry except the paint was faded a bit. Wish I'd went ahead and bought it. A 5 ft. tiller, like new went for $600.00, kickin myself more. Got a pto seed sower for $60.00, and a...

My brother in law has an 855 w/72 in. deck and needs a belt for the deck. Is there a place on this site that i can find one?

I was bushhoging yesterday and stopped to clean the screen that covers the radiator, when i opened the hood i noticed the strap that goes around the air cleaner was broken at the bottom where the two bolts hold it on. I seem to remember some discussion of this on the site, and i think it was...

Had a great time Thursday. With all the rain we've had this spring, the back part of my yard didn't get mowed before. The fescue grass was taller than the tractor and seeded out. The MMM was leaving a lot of it uncut, so I borrowed my brother's 60 in. bush hog. He has an International 234 and it...

Anybody remember the old ford and ferguson's with the exhaust run under and exiting at the rear of the tractor? How about one for the 3054, wouldn't that be neat?

found a way to eliminate the soot on loader frame

i have a bx 2200, and the exhaust gets black soot on the loader frame, bright idea!!!, when i checked out the new bx 22, i noticed a neat little sheet metal tip on the exhaust outlet, held on with a hose clamp, had to wait four months for the dealer to get his parts listing for the 22, ordered...

i live in the country, only water source is two sixteen hundred gallon cisterns. every summer, the water gets a foul smell in the house. i've checked the cisterns and there is no smell there. i even cleaned and refilled with city water, the smell came back in a short time. i've been told the...

don't like the exhaust on the bx2200, it blackens the loader frame on the left side. bright idea, i can get an exhaust manifold for a b7500 w/gaskets for about $70. it exits straight up. a hole saw and a small muffler and the bx will look like a real tractor.

i went to THRESHING DAYS yesterday, they have a featured brand display this year, guess what. it was a busy display, am going back today, i had to leave early yesterday and the old tractors were still coming in. i hadn't seen the dk55 before and was impressed.

i'm glad i got pictures, it's a locust stump and it's as hard as a bone.

don't know what it weighed, but i could lift it with the loader

another shot of this monster

a little time off for the memorial day holiday, put it to good use. i hesitated for quite a while before i tackeled this one. the little bx is amazing

wonder what the bx2200 would be like with this option http://www.mattracks.com/html/track-tor-assist.htm

someone posted bx2200 for president, I nominate KUBMECH for president. sure hope you hang around.

i have a 60 in. mower on bx 2200, i have it cleaned and put up for the winter, was wondering if i could coat the under side with something like spray in bedliner to keep it from rusting. i thought about the brush on bedliner material, but it has something in it that makes it textured, i'd like...

about two weeks ago, the first measurable snow, sure was fun

piddlin\' some of the modifications i've made since the new baby arrived

posted some photos of holiday projects in photo section

my next project, learn how to attach more than one photo.

photo

can pick up without removing receiver hitch, just back up and lift.

fresh paint, next coat will be Kubota Orange

some projects i finally got around to, receiver hitch and carryall/woodbox

have been in the woods with my mmm off, pushing some brush around with the FEL, noticed that the fan on the driveshasft at the hydrostat unit is not a fan anymore, all the blades are gone. got a new one from dealer, $4.20, couldn't believe there was a part from dealer so cheap. anyone else had...

would like to have a shop manual for bx, are they available? would really like to have it on cd rom, like mercedes.

a while back, i saw a post that had some photos of some small tractors with turbo kits attached, can anyone direct me to that thread or to the link. thanks

A MAN AND HIS TRACTOR IT'S A BEAUTIFUL THING
