Hello from Ohio, I am thinking of buying a JD 4200 compact 4wd tractor with 430 loader and 48 backhoe with a wide bucket. I am going to have to rent a uhaul car trailer to drag it a long way home. Question: Which end is the heavier end of this setup? Should i pull it on or back it on the...

Good morning TBN. My JD 4200 HST has had an intermittent issue that now seems to be here to stay. After starting (no issues) attempting to engage forward/reverse on the HST will shut the engine off, just like if I leave the seat. I checked the seat safety switch, found it to be in working...

John Deere 4200 Subcompact tractor. When I engage the PTO at the manufactured required RPM the PTO stalls the tractor engine. I have my post hole digger attached so I disconnected the PTO shaft and the same results where the tractor engine stalls out as I engage the PTO lever. I'm lost and need...

He says he was working on the driveway and put it in High range "C' to get to the end of the drive, and when he tried to go back to B and A range, it wouldn't go there. He could get into Neutral and C, but it wouldn't go into B or A...

Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone out there has an opinion of using a JD MX5 Bush Hogg with a JD 4200. My experience with the 4200 is that it is not as powerful as I would like, so I don’t want to bog it down with a bush hog that is too big for it. On the other hand, if I’m going to invest...

Our 2wd tractor has 13.6 r16 Carlisle turf tires on the rear. We operate in mostly steep and moist conditions so I'm needing to change to a more aggressive ag style tire. However the only options I have are the titan power 2 in 320/85, Carlisle trac chief and an over priced firestone option. Do...

Curious if anyone has any experience installing the third SCV kit. The reason I ask is because the kit is virtually impossible to find (would love to buy one if someone has it) but I think I can fabricate something with a cable lever If I can see how the connection to the control box works. The...

I've had this machine less than a year. It has less than 900 hours. When I first bought it, everything was perfect. I mowed 5 acres field fine in May. No problems, no worries. I notice that the transmission oil is not up to mid-way in the sight window. I added a quart or two to get it a...

I have a JD 4200 HST that will not move forwards or backwards and the PTO will not function. I was brush hogging (just grass, not clearing woods or anything) and my forward function quit working as did my PTO. I didn't 'feel' anything give or hear anything break. I found a thread for a 4310...

Looking at my JD compact disk repair manual it states on a page numbered 9-3 specifications that the front and rear wheel mounting bolts torque is 72 lb-ft. I thought that sounded kinda light for the rear wheels and thought I would check with you folks. I am changing the rear tires after all...

I have a 2000 4200 and as of late the tractor will just die while using it then it will start right up. It happened to me 6 times today while mowing a large field. Could it be the seat safety switch even though I dont come off the seat? or is it maybe the htermistor I have read about. Thank You

My JD 4200 has sat for a couple of yrs and now when I tried starting it it has no fuel coming out of the injector pump. It ran fine when I parked it. It has the Yanmar 3TNE78A-JT42 3 cyl engine. I do not think this is an air problem. I have installed an electric fuel pump so I know it is getting...

I've got a JD 4200 that I bought new a few years back. Anyways I'm getting it ready to sell. First, I'm replacing all the plastic except for the floorboard and the fenders. Also replacing the broken fuse box cover and latch. When replacing it, and cleaning it all up, I see the actual...

I was out on my tractor today and the temp gauge just pegged to the right (over heating side). The tractor wasn't over heating. So I grounded out the wire going to the sensor and the gauge pegged to the right so I assume that means the gauge is good. Is there a way to check the sensor?

Tractor was running good a few weeks ago. Over the holiday I wired in some LED cube lights for additional visibility. After I wired them up I verified they worked but I didn't start the tractor. The switch has a small light that is always on, so it's always pulling current (though it...

I bought a 4200 with FEL this summer and am just getting around to changing the fluids to establish a baseline. It is a low hours machine and the previous owner said they had it serviced a couple of years ago at the local dealer. Imagine my surprise to find it has 80-90 gear oil in the front...

Stole it for $7000

My 4200 started fine the other day after sitting for a week. I ran it a couple of hours plowing snow, shut it down for lunch. Went out, no start. I figured water must have been stirred up in the tank and settled somewhere. I put the heat gun to the fuel pump, fuel filter assy. etc., drained...

Hi guys, I have a JD 4200 with a 420 loader that we purchased a couple of months ago. We noticed the cylinder for the tilt on one side of the loader was bent and figured it would eventually become an issue. From the picture you can see that the other day the rod broke and now I need to come up...

I cannot tell if I have my transmission fluid levels are to standard by looking at this site glass (located near the PTO - rear of tractor) on my JD 4200. The glass always has a small 'bubble' at the very top of the glass which would make me believe it is 'full'. I know it uses (and loses)...

Is the 4200 rockshaft control valve serviceable? Dealer say's it's not and wants about $1000 to replace it. My 3 point will drop and bounce right back up. I was going to try to fix it myself but I got cold feet and took it in. I was hoping it could be cleaned out. I started a thread awhile...

We have a JD4200. The loader only barely moves. Power steering is intermittent. Three point is very slow. Fluid level is full. No leaking is obvious. Don't know location of the hydraulic filter or screen, and don't know anything about the pump. Any suggestions?

I just bought this tractor (JD 4200 W/FEL) for snow removal. the most snow we get in 24 hrs has been about 2 foot. I am wanting to know if I should leave the bucket on or go with a plow. I don't have a large area to keep cleared. If your recommendation is blade, FEL mounted or rear mount and...

I am new to this forum. Was searching for information to help me get my tractor back in action. A John Deere 4200 hst. A few months ago the tractor started acting like it was not getting enough power to the starter. It would kick in the starter gear and give about a "half" a crank, and then...

I have a JD 4200 with a 72" mid mount mower. The mower does not respond to the tractor's lift / lower commands. Probably a hydraulic cylinder. Any idea how hard to repair / replace myself? When it does respond, it's not level. Left side won't come up at all, and right side sometimes moves, but...

I've noticed this winter my John Deere 4200 has a very very slow coolant leak. It only leaks when the temp. Is below zero. And this year where up to about 50 so far,( and tonight March 3 it's suppose to get to 15 below, a new record. ) I use prime airily in the warmer months. I haven't looked...

How do you check glow plugs & block heater on a John Deere 4200. I got it started at 15 below zero ( barely ) I'm thinking it should have started a lot easyer. My diesel vw sits at work 11hours a day not pluged in and it starts no problem.

I have a JD 4200 tractor and it sounds like a constant air leak, like come out of a tire, but it's not any tire. It only happens when the tractor is running and it loses power just going up an incline. It's a hydrostatic model about the year 2000 or 2001. I have run my hands all around the...

I have a 2000 JD 4200 with a JD 420 front end loader which is bleeding off from the raised position. I know that if the lift cylinders piston seals go bad the loader would bypass oil allowing the loader to leak off but with 2 lift cylinders what are the odds that both would go bad at the same...

I went and put out a bale of hay today and on the way home I was in C gear going down the road and the tractor started acting like someone was puting on the brakes and soon after that the back tires locked up and would not move. If the forward pedel is pushed it will not move and if push hard...

I recently traded my JD 4200 in for a new 3320. I decided to keep my 47 backhoe for the new tractor. This required me to purchase new mounting plates for the new tractor. I found out the hard way that these plates are very expensive but the 47 was in great shape so it was worth the money. I...

I have a jd 4200 that starts fine runs at idle up to 1500 rpm fine but go over that and it starts sputtering-rpms drop and sometimes quits all together and I can restart it at idle and run fine after a couple of seconds.

I'm looking for a FEL for my JD4200. The JD dealer seems to think a Bush Hog 2297 would work for me at $3500. This would include install and quick attach. I already have the joystick and the values as they came with the tractor. Is there something out there for a better price point. Thanks...

Hello. My 2001 JD 4200 HST has been running fine until recently when after a few hours, the power began to diminish, the engine RPM's cut right down and the whole engine would nearly shut off, and at times would then cut out completely. The tractor would start right back up again, rev up...

What type oil should I use for the the 72" mid mount mower on my JD 4300? I didn't get any manuals and the mower manual is not available online. Thanks.

Not sure If I'm in the right spot, but we'll see. The dealer is quoting me 10-12 hours to break the tractor in half and tell me whats wrong at $70 an hour. He said the price would start climbing. Worst case scenario and it would be around $3500. Which is different from the first dealer I...

Really wondering what the best route to go with my 4200 would be. I am thinking of adding 4 work lights under the ROPS - 2 forward and 2 back. I am in a northern climate so snow and the LEDs not melting snow/ice away is a concern. I know my alternator is 40a but cannot really find a reference...

The JD 4200 - 4400 series of CUT's have a grease fitting for the right hand brake pedal that is a PITA to reach as it's buried behind the right cowl panel, and is barely visible with a mirror. I made a 150mm (~6") long extension from some 10mm O.D. x 7mm I.D. tubing. Since I installed a...

I have a JD 4200 with a loader on the front. I don't have an actual fluid leak but there seems to be an internal leak somewhere. My loader bucket will leak down pretty fast if you don't keep hitting the lever to put it back up. My box blade on the 3 point will also bleed down after shutting...

Ken- I've got all four tubes ordered that run from the 'Joystick" to the front ports, (under the Right foot rest). Seems the plastic block that holds them together under the footrest, also holds 'salt-laden' slush from previous snow plowing! Looks like the block might have loosened enough to...

I just replaced a leaky hydraulic input manifold (3 port rubber device) and refilled with hydraulic fluid. Now both the steering and the 3 pt hitch jerk like there is air in the system. I've tried to bleed the air out of both systems by turning lock to lock on the steering, and cycling the 3...

Hey does anyone have a clue what would cause the rear PTO to keep turning when not engaged on a JD 4200 HST? It is not indicating engaged, and it just turns slowly, but will stop with resistance. it will speed up with the engine running at higher RPM, but it still will stop with resistence. It...

Hello, I have a JD 4200 with brake problems. As it is fully hydro, the brakes are rarely used except for steering when I use it to clear snow in the winter. It gets driven on the side of the road quite a bit (northern Michigan) so picks up salt from the road. Last year the brakes started...

When my John Deere 4200 had about 100 hours it wouldn't start because (I eventually discovered) the fuel solenoid had filled with engine oil and that pressure stopped the piston from retracting. I replaced it with a new one (I was no longer under warranty because the first year I used it very...

I need some help with my 3 point hitch valve. Last year it was stiff. So stiff in fact that it would flex the arm of the valve where the lever is rather than move the valve. I dug into the valve to see if I could free it up. Well after taking it apart to free it up I guess I did to good of a...

Hi Folks, I don't have a ton of info at this point, but I'm hoping something will ring a bell. My neighbor and i are going to be moving some gravel this weekend. He has a 4200 with a FEL (300x or 300cx i believe, i'm not sure). He said he's more than happy to use this equipment, but he...

In my BIY Stump Grinder project, I need to power two Double Acting cylinders, for raise/lower, and left/right movement of the cutter wheel assembly. My JD4200 has PB and currently powers my BH. Currently, the lines that I'm using for the BH power, disable my 3PH lift arms. You back up to the...

I have a JD 4200, Problem is tractor dies when put in gear. Had a problem with the safety under the seat so I wired direct, tied wires together,(bypassing it). Didn't change anything, wires together or apart no difference. Had this problem once before and unplugged, repluged the seat safety...

:confused: I have an 2001 model 4200 with fewer than 250 hours. I'm starting to have a repeated problem with the hydraulic system getting gunked up. I've changed the fluid and filters twice, and cleaned the screen at least 4 times in the last 18 months. But the screen continues to get clogged...

I have a JD 4200 and the forward and reverse pedals stick. You can push down on them and take your foot off and they will stay down. Only way to stop the tractor is push the other pedal. My foot is big enough that I have just been covering both pedals but my neighbor almost crashed my tractor...

I've found a JD 4200 with 50 hrs on it for $7500. It is 4WD HST model and has a mid-PTO, and appears to be in good condition. Currently I don't know the year but these were made between 1998 and 2001, I think. I've learned I can get the year if I know the serial #. I just need to bush hog...

I found this kit on ebay. I already installed it on my 4300 so I don't need it. The install is not very hard the directions are pretty good. You would need to have Power Beyond to use this kit. You don't need to have the 3rd SCV but if you did this kit will integrate with it. All the levers...

At the following link are photo albums of small projects I've done to modify my 2001 JD 4200 and its attachments. Picasa Web Albums - Matt I would have used the Tractor by Net photo gallery feature; but for some reason it won't let me post to it. TBN is stumped by the problem too; so when...

I got tired of twisting, turning and squirming in my seat, so it was time to add some mirrors. I've always liked the looks of Jeep Wrangler mirrors, so I got a pair from J.C. Whitney that are made by OMIX-ADA. These mirrors are supposed to be dual focal point mirrors with the majority being...

Hello Everyone. I have been prowling around here for about a month now soaking up all the tractor stuff. Heres my situation. I have 4 acres, 2 cleared so far, will eventually have at least 1.5 of the other cleared in the next few months. I checked with my closest JD dealer today, and they...

I have a '00 4200 HST and I want to add a 3rd. SCV. There is a guy on here selling a kit for $150 to add it. He says it has the ports, lines, lever cable and instruction. Is there anything else I need on my tractor to make it work? The part # is LVBM19694. I have a 420 loader on it but I have to...

I ran across a 1999 JD4200/4WD/Hydro w/420 FEL and 920 hours on it. They want $8500 for it. It definitely has been used but appears to have been stored inside and well taken care of. I drove it around the lot and everything appears to work OK. What do you think about the price and are there...

Was doing some backhoe work on my John Deere 4200 and when I got off to move the tractor forward I believe the tractor seat was not all the way down making the safety switch and the tractor stalled out. Now it will not start up again. I metered the seat switch and it was good, tried bleeding the...

John Deere 4200 4WD Hydro will not start, please help me out!!! I was doing some backhoe work and was on a slight incline, went to drive tractor forward and it stalled out. Checked fuel and it was low and with the incline could have ran out. (not sure) it didn`t sputter at all, just when I gave...

Hi. I'm looking at JD 4200, including FEL and 3p mower with 1200 hrs for 12K. Is that a reasonable price? Also, are there any problems with the 4200 size? I've heard that the frame might be too big for the power? The 4200 is ~2500 lb compared to a Kubota B7800 at ~1800lb. Any one have any...

I am looking at purchasing a 2000 Model of the JD 4200/4WD. It has 420 loader with 185 hours. The owner is also selling a "Bush Hog" 60" rear discharge mower and a "Bush Hog" post hole digger 2000 models on both. There is also a converted boat tailer for the tractor. Curious of total value/fair...

My hydrostat 4200 JD is having problems starting. When I try to start it, the engine turns over, but never starts. I do not turn it over for long, because when it does start, it starts very quickly. I can wait five minutes,try again and sometimes it will start. However, sometimes it will take an...

I am in New-Brunswick, Canada. I have the opportunity to take over a lease on a JD 4200, (soft cab, hst, 7 foot FEL "420", 60 inch mower and 60 inch snowblower. It is 3 years old(don't know exacly the year), 400 hours, was used mostly for residential snowblowing. Payments are $400/month until...

I posted pics of this cab for you all to see. Boy! am I happy that I didn't settle for anything less than this cab! It took awhile to come, (of course I ordered it in the dead of winter). But I'm in love with my tractor all over again. Everybody at the dealership was talking about it and...

This week my new Jodale Perry Cab should be coming in for my John Deere 4200 Tractor. I can't wait till I get it. I've looked at several cabs, but I wanted something that does the job and also looks like it was factory installed on the tractor. It is the New Boxer Cab design, very sleek...

My wife and I just bought our dream - we have 4 acres of flat grass and pasture land ( with a great bank barn to store all sorts of toys) My needs would be mostly mowing grass and pasture, but also some snow clearing and general work such as animal care (manure and feed/hay transport), dirt and...

Just asking for some assistance on installing a MMM on my 4200. I bought the mower from an individual, 60in - 1 year old. My problem is that when I received the mower and parts it did not come with the lift arm bracket or hydraulic lift cylinder. I have requested these parts from the...

I'm in negotiations for a brand new 4200 with hydostatic tranny, # 47 backhoe and a 420 loader. We're at around $24,000.00 right now but I have a feeling he could go lower. Any advice? I'm new at this type of equipment purchase. Thanks.

I have found a 2000 JD 4200 with loader (HD bucket), ballast box, turf tires (w/ chains), 5' JD rotary mower. It has 316 hours. The person used it for brush removal and the such. They are asking $14500. Is this a good price? I have been looking at the new 4110s and saw this in a local paper.

I am brand new to tractors and tractor buying. How much should I spend for a used, 18 month old JD 4200, (200 engine hours), with post hole digger, backhoe, front loader, ballast box, brush mower, leaf blower and york rake. The guy is asking $27,000. Is this high low or just right. Thanks, Joe.

If you've been following my "saga" recently, you know that I have now narrowed down my choices of tractors to the Kubota B2910 & the JD 4200. Well, today I went & rode them both again & climbed in & out of the seat a bunch of times. I am clearly zeroing in on a decision. Here's how I see the 2...

I'm looking to buy a used JD 4200 4X4 Hyrro with 410 hrs. It was used by a local school to mow grass they trade every year. The dealer is asking $14,900, it has a 60" mid mow deck and for that price the dealer will put on a new 420 loader. I can buy a new Cub Cadet that is very similar for...

I've been torn between two tractors. The 4200 and the NH TC25D. The 25D has 475 hours, being used at the combine factory, so it still can be sold as new with the warranty. With a belly mount mower, and the 7308 loader, he's down to $16,500. The 4200 new was at $19K when I first got the...

I'm down to the above 2 choices. The NH dealer has a '99 TC25D that was used for 475 hrs. at the NH combine factory, and can sell it as new, with a warranty. It has hydro-FWA, super-steer, mid-PTO and new turf tires all around. He wants $11K for it. The Woods/DuAl 60" loader is $4150, and...

I am about to buy either a JD4200 or Kubota B2910 . I have the price negotiated close enough on the B2910 and the JD4200 (within $550 of the B2910) on a Tractor/Loader package. My question is weight of the JD ? Is it better to have more weight when using the loader or not?? I will use the...

I am about to buy either a JD4200 or Kubota 2710. I have the price negotiated close enough (the JD is within $500) on a Tractor/Loader/Backhoe package to make price not much of a factor. I'm leaning towards the JD as 1) The loader has higher lift height and weight 2) the 3pt hitch is about...

I am about to purchase either a Kubota 2710, or JD 4200. I have the JD 4200 price negotiated to within $500 of the Kubota (Both packages include Loader & Backhoe). I will probably go with JD as 1) The loader lifts more and has better height and reach 2) the 3pt hitch is about 400lbs stronger and...

On a tip from Torch and John, I contacted Jodale Perry about their Cabs for the 4700. They do offer them for models 4200 through 4700, and it does look factory like the orange one. The base list price is $3475, and they offer many optional features depending on your needs and use. The...

A plumber frend of mine installed my septic yesterday and brought along is new JD 4200 with backhoe. He didn't dig the big hole with it (his big yellow JD did that), but his son got up under my porch awning and finished digging the trench. I didn't drive it but it is an impressive looking...

I am perplexed and need a little bit of help. I am looking for a Compact Tractor around 25hp. I will need a Front Loader, 60" to 72" Mid Mount Finish Mower, Rotary Cutter, and the capabilities of a Backhoe in the future. I have looked at both NH and JD and can't see any major differences...

I am in the process of deceiding whether to buy a JD 4200 or a Kubota B2710. This will be my first tractor. I will use it for mowing and general loader work. I really like both tractors. The specifications seem rather similiar except for the weight of the tractor. The Kubota is 900lbs...
