I have the 2024 version of your mower. Those marks sorta look like tire ripping up the grass. Are you sure its scalping?? If you're positive its scalping then your deck needs to be leveled side to side and front to back. Mine is slightly higher in the rear about a 1/4 to a half inch...

You have a cat 2 3pt hitch - when using cat 1 implements you can use the bushings above. That's what I use. Can purchase at tractor supply and get extra and while you're there get a few extra hitch pins.

i broke mine like that and ordered a new set from Messicks - there is an upgraded stabilizer arm. The pins are heavier duty.

niiiice didn't think about that one..... should be an over ride switch somewhere?? My wife actually suggested "we" need a wood chipper yesterday.

Yeah and my pop was a pediatrician in farm country. Most deaths or limbs cut off happened to kids on tractors. Safety 1 2 3 I wouldn't defeat safety switches. They are there for a reason. People to dumb ****. I have a cab tractor and a long driveway. I was driving down my driveway with a...

yes that will work I like to use my 72" tiller - its heavier than m brush hog and I dont need to worry I'm going to hit something with it backing up or turning but yeah the brush hog will work.

Mine never leak down......

Is this a cab tractor?

I have that exact mower and cut about 17 acres. I can cut at full speed, significantly faster than your tractor. I can do 17 acres in about 5 hrs. As far as ditches and steep banks, this tractor is heavy. Its a pro zero turn. Its not really meant to cut steep banks and it gets sketchy AF...

Use the type of oil recommended in out manual. I change my engine oil 2x a year no matter the hours, spring and fall. I use my tractor about 200 hrs a year in all weather conditions except mud. Use the hydraulic oil recommended in the manual and change it according to the hrs in the manual...

I broke mine on my MT352 and bought replacements at Messicks - they were upgrades from OEM and in stock. I backed into something or hit something sideways with my brush hog..

I had that problem with my mt3 - the crank sensor was definitely not working properly. My engine was knocking and limp mode. I had summer fuel and it was cold and I had water in the fuel filter.. I replaced the sensor - got the water out of the fuel filter and always add fuel additive/anti...

+2 on a battery powered leaf blower.... we get snow every day all winter long. Works for cars and trucks too!

Messicks might try there

There is and Messicks is my go to for LS parts the longest I've waited is 4 days. Find your part number on LS parts website copy that to the search bar on messicks website add an "MT" to the front of the LS part number your are looking for and bam and cheaper than LS and it will be an OEM LS...

I had that happen when my tractor was new MT52SC - What I did was stand up in the cab and flop down hard on the seat a few times that loosens up the seating material enough to engage the seat safety sensor. I went thru everything thought it was something serious but nope all I had to do was...

Why not just install a solar powered LED they do all the fancy stuff your 110V lamp does without the wires and without an electric bill.???

This - rule #1 = always shut the doors before moving the tractor. I broke mine when I was doing log work - lifting logs to cut them down. How could I possibly fvck that up right?? Wrong. I was in and out of the cab to lift then cut, move the chain and repeat so was a pain to keep shutting the...

Messicks has them. I broke my glass door and needed a new handle too - they have them in stock. Get the number for the door on the ls parts site and add an "MT" to the part number search on Messicks web site. Here's a link for the RH door that I found please verify that is what your part is...

Make sure your radiator is clear and it's probably the temp sensor if your radiator coolant is flowing.... Can check the flow, take cap off start the tractor let it warm up and see if the water is actually flowing after warm up. Blow out your air filter too while yer there.

You probably have summer mix diesel - do the anti jel additive and go get some fresh diesel and be sure and ask if its winter diesel. If they cant answer - buy elsewhere. You can also have water build up in the fuel filter that is freezing preventing proper fuel flow. Empty the water out of...

There should be a flow rate adjustment valve.. Look between your legs when sitting on the seat should be down low below the seat somewhere....

Messicks New Holland stabilizers are the same as LS - I bought 2 1 for a back up and 1 to replace one I broke. These are for my MT3 tractor.... here's the link: https://www.messicks.com/parts/new-holland/mt40282087

Yeah I agree - these I wired plug and play with stock wire harness. The original halogen lamps have plugs that unplug at the halogen lamp at the back of the original lamps. I bought the same plugs and hard wired them to the new LED wires so IF I wanted to switch back to the stock lamps I...

Yes I agree on the meter - I was working outside in my driveway and my meter is in my basement lol Its definitely 15awg wire and the stock fuse was 15A - I went up a little since Ohms law and all - figuring for 120w - but I doubt thats what is the actual load. There's a bunch of LS tractor...

I hear ya brother - I doubt the lamps are pulling 120W. I run grow lamps indoors and those lamps pull 700w but are 5'x5' and a lot more chips. My thought is that if the work lights are supplied with 16awg wire that wire should be good enough for the draw and its the same gauge wire the stock...

I just installed the 120W Nilight lamps you are using and installed them. They come with 16awg wire. The do draw 120w. I had an issue with the front blowing a fuse but that was installer error. They sell plugs that you can wire in to make these plug and play to the stock wire harness. There's...

Order your LS tractor parts from Messicks - add an "MT" in front of the part number in your search bar. I usually get the parts in 2 days an you can see if the part is in stock or not. If not in stock its another 2 days.

The stock wire is the same as the wire on my LED lighting. Its 16awg so enough for that load I have four 120w LED work lamps. Its bright af now worried about white out conditions when I'm plowing.

Yeah it was weird - I installed a new fuse - disconnected the driver side lamp - turned on just the right side lamp no problems. Hooked up the other lamp and pop - the fuse blew. I was somehow able to hook up the plug from my new light and plug it in backwards into the stock socket. So I...

fvcking eh right buddy - found it and the front 15A fuse for the front work lights was blown.... niiiice. Now I gotta figure out why it blew. I installed the same lights in the rear as the front and no blown fuse on the rear.... maybe I installed the plug backwards on 1 of the lamps...

What 3rd function kit did you go with and what grapple... I'm getting ready to pull the trigger but the cost for the 3rd function kit has my eyebrows curled.

The lights I used were from a u-tube vid the guys were upgrading LS cab tractor lighting. I set it up plug n play just like the vid. I think there's a fuse I'm missing. Possibly an inline fuse. I checked the fuses behind the dash by my left knee and nothing was blown in there. I saw the...

I decided to upgrade my overhead work lights for the winter snow plowing season. I installed the rears and they work great. When I hooked up the fronts and tested I herd a pop sound then they went out. To trouble shoot I swapped the switches to be sure the front switch didn't go bad. The...

I have a 60" Titan on my MT352. Works as designed with a slip clutch. The reason I went with the 60" is due to I want a walking path between my finished rows in the gardens. The width is the same as yours is = 66" so it works great for me. If I want to till the entire garden I just overlap a...

I've towed my MT352 outta the wood lot with a pickup Tacoma pickup truck. So towing out of a field would be pretty easy just need another hand and tow straps. I pulled mine in reverse around a bunch of solar panels. That said - I'd get the dealer to fix under warranty if thats an option...

Mine is sloppy on my MT352 fer sure it sorta bothers me, hope there's an adjustment.

Yup we were not the first to have this issue. Wonder if it was a defective part from the factory? Where did you get your new sensor from??

Take the side cover off your steering column - the left side as you're looking at it from the driver station. Follow the shift lever to the shift lever shaft. The shaft is 2 piece - 1 piece fits inside the other with a spiral flex pin to keep them tied together. That flex pin works loose and...

Thats a good question.. I never saw that until I looked. My cab has brackets with 2 holes on them right beside the plug. Now wondering what we can put there... maybe some ditch lights or something??

This right here - and Messicks is the place to order usually about 50% cheaper than LS and always in stock. Their warehouse well one of them that is HUGE in near Harrisburg PA

Why not include the QUALITY of the fuel being used. I'm betting that has way more to do with emissions than RPMs. I'm sure it does with my tractor. I idle most of the time. I dont regen any more frequently than when I work the tractor hard.

Messicks in stock https://www.messicks.com/parts/MT40265611

Not meant as "all encompassing", I'm passing on my experience with my tractor. Ask a pro trucker if quality of fuel matters. You can test it yourself. Go to your local gas station and fuel up with their diesel. When your tractor starts going into regen, there's your test result. I did...

You gotta run the cleanest best Over The Road diesel you can find. The reason for Regen is to clean off the soot accumulated from running the engine. If you're regening often that means the fuel is of poor quality and the sensors tell the engine go into regen. After the first issue we had...

Just got a new ZT mower with rops. First ride I hit a tree branch prolly within the 1st 25 yards mowing first time. The mower front flipped up pretty high. I didn't know what happened thought I ran over something then did it a 2nd time on the 2nd circle around the tree. I finally realized...

pto shift lever to Neutral

Congrats on your new tractor. I got the same tractor with 52 hp looks exactly the same. I have 3 rear remotes standard. The cab is awesome. Good luck with it. Get the best over the road diesel you can find. Dont cheap on fuel.

One tip for using a chain attached to hooks on your bucket. Wrap the chain around the trunk 2x that reduces the slip it will tighten as soon as you start pulling or lifting. Boxwoods I'd probably hook the chain a 30K or higher clevis attached to my draw bar. Pulling like that can get...

You dont need herbicides to deal with the pop ups. Just mow them they wont come back. We have many honey and black locusts. They reproduce by root suckers and what you call pop ups. All that is required is mowing. The interesting thing is the suckers aka pop ups are thorny but the thorns...

Messicks has most parts for LS - fast ship and 1/2 the price from LS. Look up by part number. It will cross reference to New Holland part.

Take your bucket off... ?

What brand grapple was it you bought from Kubota?? There's a Kubota/new holland dealer about 5 miles from me. Never thought of stopping by. Might be time. I have LS MT352 same tractor and the NH and made by LS. Good time to make friends over there.

If you have a wood lot like me maneuverability is a thing. My tractor is 63" wide. I'm going with a 60" grapple - great thread thanks I've been on the search for a year now.... getting tired of chains and my bucket to move brush and logs. Now glad I didnt pull the trigger on an EA in January.

I get a squeal when I start up my tractor in the cold. Makes me extremely nervous. I had a knock a while back but it was my crank shaft position sensor. Threw codes and went into limp mode or shut down I forgot which. I replaced the sensor and everything back to normal.

Have you looked at your shift lever behind the dash?? I'd start there before splitting the tractor. On my shuttle shift F/N/R lever there's a pin that holds everything together. It gets dislodged sometimes and has even fell out making the shift lever inoperable. I'd look there first.

Get a neighbor to plow it for you first time thru with a 15-18 btm plow or moldboard plow. Thats what we did. Then you need to work on the soil health. Clay is ok once you add in soil organic matter and that takes some time - a few years. Can add in some local manure and then till that in...

For folks with LS tractors and regen issues. In my case the only time I had a regen issue was when I bought cheap diesel at a local out of the way gas station. I had a few issues regen and a lot of smoke and limp mode. After that I never buy diesel other than at our local Over the Road...

you need to upload the video to TBN use the icon that says "media" when you roll you cursor over it its to the right of the paper clip up there 👆👆👆

We have an MT352 with cab and shuttle shift. The lift height is no problem I could still FU and dump a load on top of me if I wasn't careful. We push snow here with a 1000' driveway asphalt onna mountain side with a small incline but its enough in heavy snow that we need to plow WITH the...

Zero turn has a pretty low center of gravity with a +50" deck hanging off the bottom of the frame. We have a few 25 degree banks I mow with my ZT - it's sketchy at first until I figured out the safest way to mow the banks and each one is a little different. Most of the steep slopes its either...

I have a woodmax log splitter that I love.... am considering a woodmax 3pt chipper to go with.

This is what we do. I do the main trails with a rotary cutter and and also use a zero turn around the trees - that lot isnt all that big. We've go 15 acres of woodlot that is mostly cleared under the trees. Mowing it 3 or 4 times a season keeps it clean and walkable. Can raise up the blade if...

FYI My neighbor had a similar tractor similar year - check your wiring underneath the complete harness - his tractor burned up the whole harness and he's a diesel mechanic. Some of the wiring could be soy based insulation + rats = fire hazard.

My 4wd lever in on the floor behind my foot on the left brake side My shift lever is on the console left side of the steering wheel - this is the one that will disable your tractor when the roll pin falls out I just had to tap mine back in the other day it worked its way out again. I duct...

Get a snow pusher for your tractor. Keep your pu truck in the shed. Yer welcome... hope you have a cab !!

Block Heater?? trickle charge your battery overnight set charger to "maintain" let it charge it really makes a difference.

shuttle shift linkage brake side

Fuse in the lower right hand corner is for the power shuttle on my tractor. The shuttle shifter has a pin that comes loose and it knocks out the power shuttle fuse. Check that and be sure your seat safety switch is operational.

Go easy - FELs aren't generally made to do this type of work. People been talking about bending the cross bars and tweaking the SSQA so be careful. I'd use the backhoe and park the dumpster close to the work area as possible. Can move and dump pieces with you FEL with forks.

Thats 1/2" steel plate - I dont think it bends that easy. There's no stress cracks in the paint and it bent like it was attached to the tractor when it was bent. Not sure how that happened but it had to have happened at the dealer or the factory.

Thanks guys yeah it "looks" bent but there aint no way it was bent on the tractor. There would be stress cracks in the paint and that steel is pretty thick I think at 1/2" steel I cant imagine the amount of force it would take to bend the guard?? Its not in the way of the FEL either it looks...

I bought a grill guard from broken anvil metal works and it doesn't fit right. They told me my grill is bent which it was like that when I bought it. Can someone please confirm my grill guard is bent or not bent - take a look at yours and see if its like mine please. I'm ok with adding a...

They sell Titan on Amazon free shipping no strings and free returns. There's one for 598$...

Also same mirror for a boomer 47 - part number is: New Holland #MT40260614

Flat land and tallish grass/hay cut a few times a year is easy work for a tractor. I have a 72" titan rotary cutter I run it pretty hard too. Tall grass is the easiest job I do. The 72" cutter is pretty heavy, so consider that but I'd go with the larger cutter since flat ground and just grass...

I think mine is a plug. My tractor is am MT3 52 tho... looks about the same in your pic. Where did you get your service manual??

I use chain and sometimes back up with the chain attached to hooks on my bucket. Never pull anything attached to a tow ball on a draw bar. I have a very large shackle attached to my tow bar. Backing up with a chain attached to the bucket can probably move 2-3 logs at a time. The bucket keeps...

purge water from your fuel filter yet??

Driveway flat or onna grade? Our MT352 with a 72" snow pusher does great uphill and down and we have at least 1/4 mile driveway onna mountain. IF you're onna incline - start going downhill first. My first cut with a pusher going uphill in heavy snow would be a problem without chains...

LS MT3 with a cab and a 72" brush hog + 72" rear tiller + delivery from OK to Upstate NY for 31K$ with 20 hrs onit. It was big when I first got it - we have 30 acres with 2 wood lots and fields that were left go for 15 years-ish so brush as high as the cab or higher. I can drive right thru the...

Can adjust the temp to add in some warm then you can leave the AC running full with cold + warm to keep it comfortable without having to turn the fan off. I do this in the winter when snow pushing - keeps the windows from condensating and I can see out all the windows. Fan switch is the...

Gotta part number for that?? I looked at New Holland version they want 600$ for it. forgettabout it.

This is spot on specially for an LS tractor. I used fuel from a backwoods gas station 1x - never again. Got water in my fuel filter, gelled fuel in the winter and my tractor went into limp mode in the middle of pushing a crap ton of snow. Get best fuel you can find from an over the road...

What do you use a strobe light for?

Yeah I'm on the "whats the codes?" boat. You should have gotten at least 2 codes. On your shuttle lever issue - what happened? Did the shuttle shift stop working? I had that and found the expansion pin on the floor beside the clutch. I thought I blew the tranny somehow, towed it out of...

trickle charge the battery overnight and clean your negative and ground points. Be sure you're not wasting your money and time. Batteries last pretty long if you maintain them. I'll hook mine up to a battery charger that auto switches to "maintain" mode after the battery charges up then I...

Its lkely the gear shift lever. Take your dash cover off and check your gear shift linkage under the dash. The gear shift for forward/neutral/reverse on the left side of your console has a gear shift lever. There's a tube inside another tube with a sort of cotter pin but its actually an...

money on parking brake not engaged at shut off.

Think of your gut as the same thing as a forest. They both work the same. The forest feeds the earth. The earth feeds you. All about fungi and bacteria. Everything on earth needs both to survive. How is the 300 acres gonna be farmed?? Gonna use pesticides, fungicides and herbicides that...

check your safety switch under the seat??

I thought your bars look different than mine so I went out and took a pic. Looks like my bar ends are beefed up as you can see there is a steel square tube they are inside of. I have a similar size 72" rotary cutter that I beat the crap out of doing brush 10' high. Here's what my arm looks like

There's a cover plate on the joystick for an LS version of a 3rd function - not sure where you can get the 3rd function parts tho but my cover plate fell off a few times and how I know about it. If thats something yer interested in.

Congrats - be sure and purchase the best diesel you can find. Its worth a few extra $$ don't cheap out on fuel. I learned the hard way.

Love my LS got it for a GREAT price with 20hrs onit. Parts and hard to find until you realize how many other tractor manufactures are made BY LS and the the parts thing is very very good. example - Case and New Holland

On my wife's honda I had to jack the engine up to get to the sensors on the engine. That was an all day affair. Helps that the engine is not covered with body parts fer sure. Your manual was a big help thanks. I'm glad I didn't have to clear the fault codes to get it back running. That...

Thanks again @Eagle1 - it worked. replaced the part with the New Holland equivalent started up and no codes she's baaaaack. Just in time to make potato rows and 95F today ouch. The key to replacing the crank sensor is removal of the starter. Once the starter is out of the way easy...

I found the removal/install in one of the manuals you linked me. Thanks sooo much for that. Going in today as my part is out for delivery. I'll try and take pics. Funny the parts catalog on LS website shows that part has been updated 3 times. Now wondering why that is?? I'm betting...

My MT3 has OBDII port. Need to take off the right side lower panel (2 bolts with handles) its under the ignition switch. Easy to get to.

ok thanks to @Eagle1 I found the crank sensor. Its BEHIND the starter motor. And BEHIND yeah that sucks. Prolly going to need to take the starter off to get toit. Anyone remove a starter on this engine?? Looking or any gotcha's I'm not aware of. Side note, looks like some debris...

this one??

Got the dreaded F02 636 error code. Looks like I need a new crank position sensor. I ordered a new one from Messicks that is on a New Holland tractor with the same engine as mine (l3c19-t). I found the part number on LS parts website and found the part at Messicks for a cool 165$ + ship...

+1 on the severe gear goo... good stuff. Use it in my truck and tractor.

Might be trying to go into regen. Hit your regen button and let it burn off the residue is my guess.

Not sure if its too late or not but I happen to have my drawbar out on the work bench trying to find the right size ball shank for it. The draw bar is thick you need at least a 2" long shank so thats the first hurdle. Its larger than 3/4" - Im thinking its 1" Here are pics to show. The pin...

I did the same as @Mrsig

This is what I have - works great and I have implements in there with the tractor. Its heavy duty been using it for 6 years so far can handle snow loads and wind and a tree fell on it and didn't rip or break anything...

Id prolly figure out a way to split that big trunk and/or build a nice big fire around it and have it as the center of a new brush pile. Might take all season but fire gets rid of most stuff like that. You're gonna move it but its still there and will outlive you. Burn burn burn

We have a 1000' driveway. The base is an old state road that was rebuilt adjancent to our property. The old road was cement built in the 50s or before. Previous owners put asphalt on top of the old road. Where the cracks in the cement road were are also in the asphalt. We get the asphalt...

I have a large solar array on part of 1 of our fields adjacent to our home. Its surrounded by .... wait for it..... TREES. We have the trees there to block the view of the panels from the road. There's no fire hazard. The "fix" for a solar farm being and eye sore is centrally located in...

I have bolt on chain hooks on the same loader and bucket. Just had to get long enough bolts to go thru the square tube across the top. I haven't found a need to add a hitch receiver yet. I pull a lot of stuff with the chains. I suppose it would be easier with a hitch but I'm not a fan of...

Well I paid 32K delivered for the tractor in my profile over der <------ with a 72" rotary mower and filled tires. Its a beast at 52hp - you will learn quickly how to drive on hills. Inna tractor the seat sits pretty high up so your comfort level will be slow going until you figure out your...

Same thing happened to me when I bought my Toyota Tacoma pu truck. At least they were honest and told me since I inquired about the pu truck ONLINE and went into the shop and took the test drive with another sales rep I had to pay both internet sales and shop sales peoples commissions which...

Use the ashes in your garden (pot-ash) just dont burn any plastics. We have a fire ring and do that - dont burn on windy days.

OP In Philly - I dont remember how soft the ground is in the spring when we lived there (Mt Airy), but up here in NYS Fingerlakes region the ground is VERY soft too soft to drive our 52hp tractor around without making pretty big tire tracks in the soft soil. We have 10 acres at least of grass...

We are doing woodlot maintenance ourselves. Looks like an EA grapple - what's the grapple is it the heavy duty and what size?? You're brave... I dont go in mud with my tractor if I can help it. Snow is melted and ground pretty soft right now so cutting logs and making fire wood here.

This ☝️☝️☝️ cash wins the deal. I'll hold for 100$ via paypal, google wallet etc when I have the cash I'll hold it for you and bring cash to purchase. I bought my big tractor online thru a reputable dealership that was 1/2 way across the country and had it shipped to me sight unseen. Was a wire...

Flop down hard on the seat. My bet is the seat switch. Can loosen the dial on the front of the seat so you're getting better contact with the seat safety switch. Its common.... the seat adjusted for a heavier person and then the seat contact switch doesn't engage. Eat more pizza.

You can adjust the seat tension to make it better for a lighter person (dial on the front of the seat). I wanted to disable mine but after running over a speed bump in my driveway (itsa long driveway) in 4th gear high was going about 20mph hit that speed bump, if I had an open station I would...

Might be frozen - that happened to me this year when the temps were really cold. After it warmed up back to normal.

This ^^^^ I have had this happen a few times with my LS MT352 - I have a telephone pole on my property. Put the pad on the pole and move slowly in the direction you want to adjust. When its off push the pad thats farther forward on the pole and go easy dont take much and tilt forward. check...

That was probably how I broke my zerk and the coupler. There likely was pressure there and I wasn't patient.

Maybe check to be sure the ECU cable is plugged in all the way (tractor off). @Eagle1 - can you look up F 14 error for me please? I get that from time to time with a big red exclamation "!" on the dash.

I switched to that exact coupler and it malfunctioned and the result was a broken coupler and and broken off nipple on my zerk. Good news was that Macnaught sent me out a replacement free of charge and free shipping. Bad news is having a huge issue finding the right size zerk to replace the...

Can you ask the dealer if they can cross reference the same parts from New Holland - there are several other companies LS makes tractors for.

I've owned Hondas for years. Just get a new crush washer and replace it every time you loosen the pan bolt. Tighten enough there's no leak and good to go. Been doing oil changes for my whole life never needed to use a torque wrench. Just test drive after change and check the pan for a drip...

Honey I'm going down into the field and plant some maters... I'm gonna be OK doing field work, wtf is wrong with you thats racist. Im going with a solid HUH? Bard plow 16-18" turns the soil 180 degrees. Neighbor farmer should do it but ya gotta make advance communications so he does it at...

Isn't that called the ESC engine speed control?? I think its for keeping the rpms at a specific setting until you hit the brake?? More useful for PTO than driving at a constant speed. I use my throttle on the dash - even for PTO speed. For driving on the road I use my right foot pedal.

Finger Lakes region. The mud and standing water is almost gone. Ticks are back OMG its in the 60s everything has thawed and water mud is drying up. Crazy.... Hope we get some more deep freeze and that will kill most of the tick larvae that'd be great. Was planing on doing some woods...

Warmed up to the high 50s today and my diesel melted back to normal thanks God - thought I blew up my engine in the arctic freeze.

My problems went away when the temps got up into the 40s F - tractor running GREAT and no more snow! Now worrying about why we are having a thaw in late December?? Everything should be rock solid now we have a mud layer with ice under it = recipe for drive-line issues like in the early...

Ironically, today I had the same problem luck had it that I was almost finished plowing. Got the F11 and a F04 error codes. I'm pretty sure its gelled fuel. Its cold AF here - even tho I added fuel treatment - Power Service Diesel Fuel Supplement Antigel + Cetane Boost but since below 0F I...

Gelled fuel is my bet. Try adding in a little #1 diesel (kerosene) to thin it down a little bit. I've been worried about that same thing. I bought some #2 diesel at a Mobil station - had 2nd thoughts since it was a fuel stop out in the country not on the beaten path. I bought the diesel...

If you want really clean clothes hang them out in the snow/cold/rain - how the Amish doit. It works. We use soap nut powder for laundry detergent. No smell no scents and clean clothes. The cost of soap nut powder compared to laundry detergent is pennies to dollars and its good for the...

spinosad will kill the fleas - Look at Moterey garden Insect spray - its spinosad. You will need a small 1 gal or 2 gal sprayer and dilute 3 tbs with 1 gal water and spray the floors - it will sorta look like water but all the fleas have to do is walk on the residue from the spray and gone also...

This right here - my Stihl dealer is 2 miles from me has a Stihl sharpener charges me $6 per chain 1 day turnaround.

Too bad the search function doesn't work well. There are a bunch of threads here but I hadda use goggle to find them Here's one - if you wanna replace speakers the top lid of the cab swings up even has a prop rod! Radio

Id just go aftermarket and be done with it. You might be surprised at the similar build quality of the aftermarket parts specially if they were made in Korea.

LS makes tractors for New Holland - I'd check with them first before the others. Call a New Holland dealer and tell them what you're looking for.

The MT tractors indeed have a PTO shift lever on the left side of the seat. Yeah makes hooking up implements WAY easier.

No drop on my MS 352 full or empty. There might be an adjustment somewhere I cant remember but there might be something in the manual about it.. I remember someone saying something about it here but on another brand tractor.

Soy based wire insulation - what year is your tractor?

Nice Looking tractor. I like the black wheels. I have a MT352C with shuttle shift pretty much the same tractor its a beast for 52hp fer sure and wow fuel mileage is awesome. Just have to remember to use it up before the cold months get here. Ive got a red rotary cutter so its got that...

How many rear remotes are on your tractor??

Not sure where you're located but for snow be sure and get a cab version. You will thank me later. I think the MT3 are all pretty close to the same tractor. I have the MT3-52 with shuttle and we had 90+ " of snow this past winter. I use a snow pusher because driveway 1/3 mile long and paved...

No blower here, use a pusher wider than the tractor tires. All tires filled, I leave the tiller on the back for extra weight no chains with R4 tires. We get 90" of snow annually so yeah plow/remove with the storm dont wait it out. I've seen some full size tractors that waited out the storms...

Yeah they ain't certified organic just using that term a bit too liberally like the fertilizer they using. I've never bought a bag of chemical fertilizer. I'm not certified organic but thats how we grow. We make compost piles sustainably from what we have here on the property. Wood ash and...

Gypsum has sulfur in it as well as a good supply of Calcium. I like to add hardwood charcoal and ashes from our fire pit to our soil. Gypsum = calcium sulfate (CaSO4). Greensand = good stuff in a garden plot good source of potash as well and +30 other macro and micro elements great for...

Only prob I have is pin striping when brush cutting. my paint looks like **** now but the brush is a lot shorter.

wiring harness follow back from the starter look for wear on a wire.

I'm using grade 2 shear bolts. Maybe I should get some stronger bolts for this brush clearing job.

Good point - this is the only implement I have with a shear bolt. I'm in the process of clearing some heavy brush in a field that was let go before we bought the property. Its great cover for the deer and glad I have a cab went thru a few hornet nests pheeewww they were pissed. Kept hearing...

Tried that the after the first 2 times I blew it up. Useless couldn't even get the customer support person to understand what I was asking for even tho I gave her the part number from their website and helped her locate the webpage with the part number. Yeah wow....

This ^^^ I have an LS tractor that did that several times after I got it with 10hrs on it. I fixed it by sitting down HARD on the seat with tractor turned off. Never happened again after that. If you get off the seat without the parking brake set it will turn off after a short period of time.

Where we live I'm clearing about 15 acres of brush. It's got buckthorn. Hit the under 2" with rotary cutter then cut the field in spring and fall. The buckthorn doesn’t grow back if I hit it a few times a season with the rotary cutter.

OK blew up my shield on my rotary cutter at the back end of my drive shaft where the shear pin is. Shear pin broke and blew a hole and completely shattered tre shield. Pics attached. Where can I purchase a new shield? Rotary cutter is a Titan 1206. Btw went thru a bag of shear bolts clearing...

I use a Makita XWT - its got plenty of grunt 720#s of torque. Usually always works. IF that don't work a breaker bar with a 2" pipe and on the other end a coal mining pike that gets me 8' I've broke 1/2 craftsman breaker bars with it. IF that don't work time to get out the fire. bout to...

Is the port the blue thingy?

First off - the tiller is not a proper tool for breaking new ground. Even if you want to go no-till you need to break the ground with a different implement like a bottom plow. Then once the soil is turned over you can add in amendments and till those in with the tiller. For the tiller...

Air ride seat prolly the only thing thats going to help your back. Maybe some PT might help too.

This ^^^^ I ran over 2 HORNETS nests the last time I brush hogged. Watched those big fuggers bouncing off my cab windows. They were pissed. The nests were huge basketball sized - I ran one over cut it in half the other 1 I ran into with my fel. While they were bouncing off the windows I...

I have the same deal on my MT352 which is a Cat II 3pt hitch. I use cat I implements so use the top link as is and use bushings on the hitch arms. If you have cat II implements then you need a bushing for the top link. I keep several extra in the cab. I loose them frequently - forget they are...

Thats a 20-22K tractor just looked at tractor house recent sales. Great tractor but 110K. No way bro. Keep your implements for the next tractor. I paid 28K for a 2021 mt352 with 20 hrs on it. There are plenty of LS tractors for sale used and new for decent prices.

For virgin ground: Moldboard plow - turns the soil completely over to depth of 16-18" which disrupts the weed seed layer and the grass is now at the btm. 2nd pass: Tractor drawn PTO tiller. Add soil organic matter and pot-ash then till that in and grow a cover crop first year. Till in the...

We got a big tractor to do tractoring. Cutting brush or hay is a big tractor job. We got a zero turn to cut grass. A big tractor is terrible at cutting grass even with a rotary cutter because ruts happen. I can cut grass with the tractor and my rotary cutter after the ground gets hard...

When you grease it do NOT oil the springs. That will cause them to break. Thats what my old timer garage door guy told me about those wound springs. They work best with friction. With lubrication they slip to easy and instead of binding and slowing down they go full wound quickly and that...

They all sure look exactly the same except for pricing. The EA version is the best price. The Dirt Dog is next up in price and the Brush Hog version is WAY pricey. We have/had hard pan in our large garden plot. It wont really go away with plowing we needed to had soil organic matter...

can get modified ag tires for the ZT - Ive never tried them but have read reviews here and traction GREATLY improved specifically on steep hills. Here's a thread here with pic with talk about them: Tires - Running tractor tires on a zero turn

They likely flipped the tires for a wider stance. On hills prolly good flatish land not needed. I have hills and run a rotary mower but I need a narrow stance for tilling rows for our very large garden. overall rear tire width makes a difference when tilling rows. I prefer a narrow stance to...

+4 on the great price - nab it asap is my advice. I got my tractor with 20hrs on it but had to ship it and got a great price and I'm totally happy. My only concern would be is it large enough for your future and current needs? If its bigger than what you think you need then fer sure go for it.

I've got both shear pin and slipclutch drive shafts for different implements. Slip cluth needs to be adjusted usually every time I hook up whatever implement I'm using I adjust the bolts on the clutch only takes a few minutes and also grease the u-joints its just regular maintenance. Shear...

Id make an offer in the current ZT from the owner if its a decent one in good shape. Use that for cutting grass. Get a tractor for tractoring including brush hogging your overgrown in the spring or late fall. Flail mower is $$ not sure you need it. for 1 acre overgrown pay a neighbor to...

One way to roll over a tractor = drive in snow on a incline parallel to a bank and start sliding towards the bank instead of moving forward. Even tho the awd 4 tires a spinning forward but the tractor is sliding sideways towards the bank. On snow spinning tires are no traction gravity takes...

There was a guy with the same failure last week. Was a kubota.... something about water in the fuel. Here's the link https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/water-in-fuel-causes-10-000-damage-to-my-kubota-grand-l6060.453665/

Dont think they're free. $100 bucks last time I looked for one.

mount it all the way in towards the front of the tractor. Extend it when you need to. The way you have it in the pic will interfere with an attachment.

I use a snow PUSHER on my FEL. Drop the pusher and go float the FEL so the pusher glides over the blacktop driveway. I'd prolly gouge the driveway with a plow. We got 90" of snow last winter. So got a decent workout a few nights on an 1/3 mile long drive on a slight hill. You cant wait for...

My Gravely ZT HD 52 can do hills sideways or up n down. On a zero turn it takes a little practice. Some people get real uneasy on hills with a zero turn cause they aren't used to it. Also you cant cut wet grass. For lots of reasons on hills it get real slippery and you cant stop in wet...

You should have gotten a service log book, manuals for all attachments including a loader, the tractor manual and pto drive shaft manual. Printed in book form not a copy.

Seller name?? or link?

I may have missed it but did the op adjust his slip clutch. When it wears it needs to be tightened. This is something that needs to be checked every spring. Easy enough torque wrench the bolts on the clutch disc while connected to the implement and PTO gear engaged tractor off key in pocket...

OP is in Ontario - hes got snow from November to June :) I'm in upstate NY - burn baby burn. We have a burn ban in effect from February to mid May until everything is greened back up. There's a lot of dead dry material in the woods before May. Gotta be careful. My neighbor cleared a 100...

Try planting hemp... skip the ferts and weed spray. You should be way ahead of hay. My neighbor gets $370 for hay on like 5 acres. But that was because the buyer doesn't know how cheap hay can be bulk. I her an old saying: "if making hay was easy, everyone would do it"

Nice tractor GL with it. I got her little brother. mt352 CPS - been cutting grass in my open station Zero Turn lol, ground too soft right now to use the cutter. Feels good with AC or heat.

Check your rear remote handles - only 1 can be moved out the up position at a time. Thats all I got. IF you only have 1 rear remote control then I don't know.

Here's what I would tell him. I don't "lend" implements out. Here's what WE can do. its 50$ same as last year you still owe me. But since I'm neighborly I'll forgive last year and I will do whatever you need FOR you with MY tractor and MY implement for $50. Show up at an agreed upon time...

Wow good to know I have a your tractors little brother. I'd probably do that all the way on the other side of the property and not know what to do. Thanks for posting.

Many of the NH tractors in the 50hp category are made by LS - something to think about. My LS is 52hp and tbh pretty heavy 4400#s. I have to wait for the ground to harden to drive in the fields unless I wanna tear it up. I'm just now comfortable going out in the fields as its finally drying...

LS makes a bolt on front loader edge. Check with your local dealer see what the price is. FYI your FEL bucket aint made to dig. There's root grapples that do some digging or other specialty tools designed for digging that are QA ready. You can try digging... don't go too deep and dont dig...

Just an FYI - federal taxes on fuel haven't risen since 1993. Thats about the only federal influence of fuel prices. Raising taxes on fuel is a death nel for a sitting president. They wont touch it with a 10 foot pole for good reason. State taxes on the other hand thats a totally different...

Good one, my tractor supply is on the way to Ace.... I never make it to Ace. TS is 2 miles amazon is 2 clicks onna mouse and delivered free inna day or 2. Those snap links I use all the time should be like a dollar.

This exactly - you can use a plow and a disc and be done long before a tiller but the tiller is good for garden size or even a market garden. I can still till certain soils with my tiller for sweet corn but IF I was doing a large plot no way would I use a tiller.

Tighten the slip clutch with a torque wrench to spec. That will take care of the slipping. Run the pto at the proper speed for your tractor Go s l o w - 1st gear lo. I had my garden plot 150' x 75' plowed by my neighbor with a Moldboard Plow. It completely turns the soil over then you can...

Its no automatic. He got em all covered ^^^^

Reason they are eating wires = insulation made with soy based plastic instead of oil based. Those are usually silent recalls at you dealer. I have a Tacoma Toyota only used those wires for like 1.5 years and they took care of everyone that came into the shop with a problem but never made it a...

I see your drying rack for the flowers!!

Would this manual cover the MS3 52C by chance??
