    made in usa ?

    Cheap labor is only a perk for companies that outsource to other countries. These factories don't have OSHA, EPA, Workers comp, NAACP, Labor Unions, and multitudes of tax levies. A line worker in an overseas factory can lose an arm or eyeball and they'll carry him out the door, wish him well...

    Korean made Deere

    Well here is the problem with buying American. In most cases an oveseas company can manufacture, ship to America, setup dealerships and sell to the consumer at a better price than an Amrican company will sell to them out the front door. Unions, high wages, EPA, Osha, and all the other obstacles...

    Korean made Deere

    You must keep in mind that John Deere like many other companies started out as an American company but now they are a global company. They sell equipment worldwide so therfore it would make sense to manufacture worldwide. Just because something reads "made in USA" doesn't always mean it's good...

    2305 Power Loss

    I had the same almost the same problem a few weeks ago. I noticed the sediment bowl was a bit cloudy around the filter. When I removed it I found it was frozen water about halfway up. There is a little red ring that lays in the bottom of the bowl. My guess is water makes it float up so you...

    Homemade tractor?

    We used something like this years ago. It is a highboy sprayer. In the spring and early summer you put tanks on it and spray tobacco. Later in the year you pull the tanks off and use it to drop sticks in the tobacco rows before cutting. The one we used had a car rearend with chains run down...

    JD 2210 owners weigh in

    I've owned a 2305 for a year or so and it hasn't let me down yet. I'm very impressed with what the little guy can do. I run a 4' woods bushhog behind it with no problems. We used it last winter to drag firewood out of the woods. It's easier to get around in tight places than the larger...

    plowing - what's wrong?

    I'll try to explain how to set your plows. Mount your plows and find a good level place to preferably on concrete. With ramps and blocks raise the right side of the tractor up the depth you want to plow. If you want to plow 8 inches deep the use 8 inch blocks. Let your lift down to where...

    plowing - what's wrong?

    It's not the engine HP that is important in ground engaging, It's the HP that you can put on the ground by the tires. The old Oil pulls and steam tractors done well to develop 10 HP and could slip 4 or 5 plows in the ground and walk off with them. They were heavy and made a big footprint...

    Tires Flat tire on 2305

    REAL position control

    You have probably been plowing longer than me but, Your middle buster or plow should pull itself in the ground. No weight needed. When plowing the point of draft is always changing with the terrain so it needs to float to maintain a constant depth. The only tractors I've ever had that had...

    WHY DOES MY JOHN DEERE 2320 BONCE WHEN IN HI GEAR?

    If your rear tires are loaded, your bounce is probably from the fluid. Every tractor I ever had with loaded tires got the "road lope" when moving fast.
