Great site wanted to ask question about tractors and RTV's

Just purchased a yanmar ym240. Changed fuel hoses and cleaned fuel tank got it running but belt broke. Bought new belt but wondering how to put it on. Do I have to disconnect the radiator hose just to replace belt?

How do you submit a new post? AI says to click on FORUMS the POST THREAD, don't see post thread. What am I missing?

Alright, this is for my truck, not a tractor, but I figured you guys might be able to help. I was recently changing some tires and I decided to change the valve stems at the same time. A few weeks after, I noticed they were slowly leaking from the new stems- air was seeping between the rubber...

Hi there! I have already had a lot of help from reading through quite a few threads here. I'm still having issues with a new to me JD 4110, so thought it would be more beneficial to walk through my journey with some help here for others to view in the future.

Thank you for the add. Just bought a 03 Kioti CK20. Stepped up from a Kubota. Only played a little with as it has a left front axle leak.

I own a Kioti (Daedong) LB2214 that I purchased used from a guy a few miles down the road. I bought it about 15 years ago. It was garage kept, came with a belly mower and a scraper blade. It also came with a user manual (all in Korean....LOL). I sold the belly mower early on (never gonna use...

I cannot find any new information on the new electric Slate pickup. I am seriously looking at trading trucks though my 2014 only has 60,000 miles. I want all the new safety features and at age 71 I figure it will be the last one I well ever buy. I would get a Ford F150 but they have priced...

Hello all, Im Andrew Just joined the forum and happy to be here. Looking forward to learning and taking part in the discussions. Thanks!

My new truck ( Ram 3500 ) is diesel. So - DEF is also in the picture. However - there is SUCH a wide range of prices between different brands. Examples ...... Kleen DEF - $56/ 2.5 gal. Blue DEF - $17/ 2.5 gal. For those of you, in the know. Is this price difference justified?

Hi I’m looking forward to being a part of the group and learning more about my equipment through experience and the knowledge of others. Hopefully I’ll be able to contribute some knowledge as well. Thanks

Hello everyone. Grateful to be in a group experienced in outdoor life. I bought a very good condition early 80s Ford 1520 about 20 years ago with a Ford 7108Q loader, a heavy yellow ford 6 ft box blade with rakes. It has been an incredible workhorse on my 30 acres of wooded hills adjacent to...

In west Wales it doesn't really get that cold compared to the more mountainous areas but my NH TD5.95 has been having some trouble starting the last month or so. Battery seems ok as it turns the engine but the damn thing takes some time to "fire". This is usually accompanied by the exclamation...

Purchased this on Tuesday and bought a grapple too. Dealer was about 3.5 hours away. I love this thing. But I’m also comparing it to a 32 y/o Kioti LK3054 😂. Like comparing a F450 to a pinto. It was supposed to have delivered today, but the dealer messaged and said it won’t be until next week...

I had a new metal roof put on my barn in the spring. I have not had any issues until today when I went into the shop and found that it was leaking real bad. The other part of the barn has leaks as well. I have a Gambrel roof with a lean-to roof off the back for my shop. I had two sky lights in...

I have about 5 hours on my new Kioti. It does this thing that when it starts to struggle under load, I try to back off the pedal, but it feels like the petal continues to depress and the tractor ends up stalling. Does that sound right? Thanks, Joe

Took delivery of a John Deere 4052R with the “snow cab” today! Nice machine. Looking forward to heat and A/C! Replacing my Massey 1742.

Kubota BH77...I have added a hydraulic thumb. Everything is installed, but I have not reconnected the hydraulic lines to the tractor yet. It occurs to me that I have added 2 12 foot long hydraulic lines and a 30inch (extended) cylinder to the system. How do I bleed out the air that's...

I’m trying to replace the seals in the steering cylinder (pn# 5189892) of my new to me TN75 using seals kit # 5190591. Can anyone help me to know which outer seals go where?

Well guys this is my second thread here in the forums and I am glad to report that my first problem with the JD 650 is solved! Big shout out to Mike aka thepumpguysc ! I had issues with my tractor idling and wanting to run away from me, after some talking back and forth trial and error on my...

The front rims have stress cracks that are not able to be welded. As the cracks are welded, new ones form. Looking for alternative sources as Kubota is mighty proud $590 each. Photos attached.

Over the weekend I got a call for cow/cattle hay. I was thinking typical 1-3 bale sale. He wanted 24 1,800LB bales. He planned to get them in (3) trips of 8 bales each. His F-350 had electrical system troubles, so he only got 2 done, but paid me in full for all 3 loads. We talked a lot about...

Imagine it's 1948, and a farmer has just bought a brand spanking new 8N as his primary tractor. How many acres would he likely farm? The large scale of agriculture industry today makes it hard to imagine a time when a feller could successfully farm with just an 8N, especially for us young...

I am planning out my garage for a new build. I plan on working on my cars, tractor and UTV in this garage. Which would be the best way to go? A lift, if that is even possible with a tractor considering how back heavy it is, or a mechanic's pit? FYI. Tractor (Kioti DK6010SE + filled tires) is...

I am helping a neighbor with his blower. I did a fuel vent test and it really slows to a trickle when the cap is tightened. I believe that is part of the problem with his blower. The cap is the newer Techumseh style like this: Do these go bad? And how do they actually work? I don't see a...

Bought this New holland 545D, under the fuel tank it has a screw on type thing and wonder what goes there

I bought a LS tractor knowing diddle squat about tractors, but man do I love it now. I put in a new battery for the winter, I got nothing. I checked the terminals, clean. I checked to make sure I didn't put it in backwards. I tightened it down with a torque wrench. I swore at it a lot. I...

Greetings. New member here from Canada. Only been on a day or so and already have found a great bunch of information. Looks like a great community.

Kubota batteries used to be sealed with no caps to remove and no adding of water or maintenance required. I loved it. Last year I bought two 1000 amp Kubota batteries and while each was said, by parts dept, to be sealed and no maintenance, the battery caps can be removed. I looked in and the...

just bought a new ZTS2 50 so far so good. I do not see many posts almost having second thoughts ... maybe should have bought an 4 or 5 version. I have about 2-3 acres to mow.

Het guys. I was down in Russell Springs Ky couple of weekends ago looking at some attachments when I ran into a JD rep. I asked him about the about the DEF programming that the EPA is saying the manufactures can now change to stop limp mode. He basically said JD is looking into it. Anyway, I...

Hi everyone. I'm looking to buy a new 25hp tractor/FEL, my first brand new tractor. I'm replacing/upgrading my old Kubota B7100. So I'm seeking a little advice. My first instinct was either Kubota or JD as I've owned both, but after a quick look and comparison, they come with a premium price...

Hi all, I had a nice older IH 454 that I sold, and just bought a TC30 with loader instead. Was looking for something 4x4, hydro, and a little smaller to maneuver in small spaces better. It was sold as a 2007, but I think it may be a 2004. These are its numbers: HK30780 Engine: N843-95998...

I'm about to pick up a new MT120 wide track. I'm getting the 50" GPX bucket, 48" grapple, 14PH Auger, and Mini Pallet Fork Frame with 36" forks. The dealer has told me that I have to get the Mini Pallet Fork Frame and the standard is not available to purchase with it due to the manufacturer...

Have decided to join the Bobcat family CT4545 delivered this late afternoon. My 1st cab tractor so quite an adjustment ahead. Didn’t really do anything after delivery as it was late other than scan the manual. Already have a couple mods in mind, but need to get info on cab wiring etc. Will be...

After finishing adding a rear view camera to my Kioti today I backed my tractor into a shed to drop my offset flail mower. The PTO would not lower the mower(3 point hitch) to the ground. My first thought was I did something during the camera installation that caused the problem. I inspected...

So I’ve been lurking on the forum for some time now and finally decided to pull the plug and get a used PT425. It came with a bunch of attachments and I’ll soon be hooking them up. It will take a bit of seat time to get comfortable in it. It has the rare and desirable Subaru Robin...

Finally got my new trailer. Couldn't be happier. Canada Trailers CE718-10K Build quality and components are fantastic! Tongue and front is done in a stone guard coating, 12,000 pound jack, rear jack legs, 5200 pound axles with brakes on both axles, Dexter hitch, galvanized rims and the...

Hello You'll, I noticed that my 4WD Shift Lever is leaking (pouring) Hyd Fluid from where it enters the Sump. After consulting with my local Mahindra Dealership Service Dept, I was informed of their backlog and the lead-time to get it looked at/worked on. One of the Serviced Technicians...

I bought a new 2025 TYM T25 TLB last week. Just waiting for the shop to button it up and deliver it Monday, OR I can get it myself when it’s ready this week. That being said, does anyone have a checklist for NEW tractor delivery? Something relatively thorough, but not NASA Pre-Flight level.

Hi everyone, I’m new here and wanted to introduce myself. My family has been in the agricultural parts trade abroad for over 30 years, and I’m now preparing to expand and open a small business focusing on tractor (and possibly truck) spare parts in the U.S, based in California. I want to make...

Hello all. New member, Schips here. Quick question is the emissions on new tractors real headache? Looking to buy first tractor and am planning on buying more than I need. Thank you.

Just got my first backhoe at 63 years old, after much research I opted for this little guy. Runs great only one hose leaking at the left outrigger. Nothing serious guess I better find a hose shortly. I've already put her to work. I will post pics soon as figure it out. Looking forward to any...

I know my wife shouldn't use the zero turn like a bush hog, but she does, and that isn't going to change. Occasionally the inner deck baffle gets bent and the blades hit it, so I jack up the deck, get on a creeper and beat it back into a reasonable shape with a 4lb sledge hammer since that's all...

This all happened the day I picked it up. .3hrs on it. All I did was ride it around the yard and adjusted the anti-scalp wheels. Neighbor drives up and stops. As I'm talking to him and I see a yellow engine light. Then I notice the temp guage is pegged. Manual says it should be beeping an...

This is probably old news, but I discovered this week, after 20 years, that you can pull up on the PTO switch while it's engaged and it will not disengage in reverse. Funny thing is, for the rest of the day, I instinctively disengaged before backing about 90% of the time forgetting what It'd...

Hey guys, first post and need guidance in the purchase of my farm tractor. I have experience in commercial heavy equipment but want all info regarding my farm tractor purchase. I have a 14 acre plot with about 11 acres of pasture that needs to be brush hogged. Some steep areas so 4wd is a must…...

Hello friends, I think I may have reached a point where I am done with my Pat’s Easy Change system and am looking at Quick Hitches. I’ve managed to crush the tabs on my Pat’s several times and need to use Vice-Grips to add and remove attachments and have had to for a while now. That really...

I have a 2010 Scag Wildcat zero turn mower with a 26hp Kawasaki engine that I bought brand new. Last year it started running poorly and I assumed it was a fuel issue. I changed the filters without any success, and sort of just got by with it losing power or just stalling out on me, then...

Against my better judgement, I signed the papers for a new leftover 2024 model year TYM T224 with FEL and 54" MMM today. I shopped the Kioti CS 2220, and the Mahindra 1120 as well, but the store I got the TYM from came down to a price I couldn't resist as they were very motivated to get this...

I'm having trouble getting the new seal to enter the barrel on this single acting cylinder. I've rebuilt double acting cylinders before and the seal is tapered in a way that made it easier to get started. Is there any trick to doing this?

Today while going through hell trying to run a hot wire to my W.R. Long remote "kit" and install the final hose clamp to keep a hose off the right rear tire, I learned something interesting. After going through the misery of running the valve's hot wire around and under the tractor to the fuse...

I just did a hydraulic lid rebuild on my '73 Ford 3000 and my piston was in terrible shape and scarred up the housing pretty good. I ordered a new 3" piston from farmtractorrepair.com and was super excited to change it. My bush hog would drift down and jump back up while mowing. I tried to put...

I acquired a new to me 1977 210. It would run but wouldn't start anymore. I bought it to put on my 31 tiller and leave it so I could keep the mower on my 110. Anyways, I put a new starter on it and now as I crank it, it seems to make a knocking noise until it fires up. Sort of like the teeth...

In May I ordered a new Mini Excavator from the shop I've patronized for 36 years. While they didn't have one in stock the salesman said he would locate one... 2 days later he called and said he had one incoming from another dealer, but it was lacking the quick coupler and bucket and that...

My New Holland TC 25 just stopped starting. It is some electrical issue. When I try to crank, all electric power stops. I have to reset the electric by disconnecting the battery. Once reset, I turn key on and dash lights come on. I can pre heat as well. As soon as I try to start, the dash...

I bought one of these last year at a consignment sale and used it for the first time yesterday. (Not my lift, mine is the same exact thing, but painted yellow and has a new holland/ford dealer sticker on it). Originally I bought it to be something of a poor-man's forklift for moving pallets...

Hi All, in a post I made a while back when I was deciding between a MX6000 cab and the Grand L. I decided to go with the Grand L 6060 and finally just took delivery. I have a few questions nothing major I was hoping to get some input on. Here is the link to that post if anyone wants to see it...

If you were looking at getting a new saw, and have the need for a 24 inch bar with the option of using a 36 when needed to cut off stumps what would you get.

2008 Cat 297C with almost 'bald' tracks. Recent Auction purchase. This is an MTL (Multi terrain loader) and will be used purely for farm cleanup, dirt work. Not alot of grading etc, although I cannot say never. But its primary use will be clean up and dirt work around a farm. So my primary...

What is considered the best, reasonably priced thumb for a new KX018? While I haven't seen one in person it appears that the Amulet POWERBRUTE mounts to a long bar which is then welded to the stick as no factory mounting point exists on the KX018 like with larger machines. Would a thumb that...

I believe they are the same model number but wondering if there may have any running changes (strengthening) in the last 5 years... Thanks .

Just bought a new GC1735MB for light work, very happy with it. But after using the backhoe for just a bit, it started leaking. The dealer said that it was a known issue and is covered under warranty with an updated part. Just posting for anyone that buys a new GC with BH to work it early...

I have finally located a replacement tedder for my Pequea TT6100 @ 26’-6”. Its actually an older tedder, but it’s 2’ wider, which just barely meets my width requirements and has a more sturdy road transport cart than the Pequea. The Pequea tedder was fine in the field, and in it’s 8 years of...

Just picked it up yesterday. Read the so-called manual. Does not mention what oil to use, I understand there is a special oil for air cooled engines. What is it or will Rotella T4, T5,or T6 work just as well? How about Mobile 1 5-30? How about a number for the oil filter so I can cross...

Saturday I went out to my newly acquired 34 completely raw undeveloped acres and attempted to do some brush hogging. I currently own a relatively newer Kioti CX2510HST 25 hp tractor/loader/backhoe. I have not used it for anything up until this point for doing anything other than some light...

Hi, I have a New Holland TN75S with error code 13. I am confident that either a 4WD solenoid plug has become dislodged or there is a wiring issue to chassis. As this Tractor has a cab it is hard to get to the transmission area to inspect. This possibly has been caused by pressure washing the...

I took delivery of a new L3302 with the 526 loader yesterday. I put 2.3 hours on it today cutting grass today. I should have bought one of these ten years ago. I traded my 2008 JD 3005 on it. I didn’t realize I had that tractor that long. I got the gear drive transmission and am well pleased how...

I purchased a new metal gasoline tank for my lawn mower (1952 8N Ford tractor. No instructions included. I installed and all was well for about 1 year. I started tractor and began using the finish mower. The tractor stopped running and when checking gasoline I noticed some kind of plastic...

Just checked out a 4066 Deere with a fantastic cab. It's like a rolling sofa with all the safety amenities. They do a great job of fit, finish, compact design engineering, and value. I should stay away from the green dealer as one day I will cave to a garage sale and purchase. With 55 acres...

Just got delivered so I am reading the manual. Never owned / operated a tractor so trying to get it right. Came across this: A. For new engine operate at a light load for first 50 hours. B. When operating at low load (less than 30%) limit operation to less than 1 hour to prevent carbon...

Now that I'm installing rear remotes on my Kubota L3710, I have new hoses flopping around. Before I spend all day Googling and hoping I come up with a good way to anchor them, is there some product out there that is generally considered best? It looks like two hoses will have to run inside my...

It only took 18 months of looking, debating in my head, researching, but I finally bought a tractor. Decided on new vs used, as all the low hour ones here weren't much of a bargain, and I wanted what I wanted, instead of "losing out" just to get a bargain. I got burned on my last used purchase...

On our new 425, I’m having trouble (typical for me having troubles😆) with the Float feature. I had found it on the old 2001 unit by accident and found it to be easy to use. (Only glitch was sometimes the joystick would “fall out” of its Float position, but I’m sure that 20-plus years had a lot...

New to me, but well used. 3200 hours. Picked up a 2012 Wacker Neuson 8003-2. Its about 18,000lbs. Yanmar 59HP diesel. Has WB manual quick attach, hammer lines and thumb line. AC still works great! Has 2 speed. All glass in-tact. Pretty good tracks.

I have 140 hours on my tractor and have had a dashboard fault code s27 F08 which is a problem with the EGR valve. Sent it to the dealer, they cleared the code and couldn't get the error to come back. If the error doesn't repeat then the dealer can't repair under warrenty. I was a week without my...

I just brought an RK25 home on Good Friday. Have barely had a chance to do anything on it yet but it is a a dream to run so far. I got a quote for a T25 from the local TYM dealer, 19k plus $375 to add Rimguard to the rear tires. RK was advertising $18k with Rimguard from the factory. When RK...

April 10 we took delivery of a new PT425. We drove down to Power Trac and Terry even run it up on the trailer for me. (As most of you know personally, he is a great fellow, and is a walking encyclopedia for Power Trac!😆) He took a lot of time with us on a couple of trips down there and was with...

Hello, my 2005 TZ25DA has 676 hours on it. Bought new. Last fall put in fresh fuel, changed secondary filter. Primary filter changed several years ago at about 380 hours. Tractor used this past winter for several snow removals and today started fine, running well and then died. Tried...

My JD 2520 is 14 years old now. It's far from worn out, but reaching the point where I'm curious about the idea of trading it in for a new one. I'm surprised though, that it looks like not much has changed over the last 15 years. The equivalent new John Deere would probably be the 2032r which...

I’ve lived in homes as old as 1910 and as new as 1993… In many ways I think I dodged a bullet with older as I’ve seen some really bad new construction build quality on brand new development homes friends bought in Arizona and Texas… All have had conflict around the new home builder warranties...

Hi Everyone, Looking to purchase a new-to-us tractor for the first time. A local dealer has a 1994 New Holland 1620 with MFWD, hydro, turf tires, mid & rear PTO, 3-pt, 1 rear remotes, Koyker 155 Q.A. Loader + Bucket, 914A Mid Mount Mower. Sale price is just under $13k. We are new to the...

My NH T1520 (35hHP) has industrial tires and the rear trac width is just a hair over 5 foot. Just want to use for dressing up my Jeep trail and ATV's. I'm leaning toward the 6' unit but would like to hear some feedback from other scraper owners.

I have a 1725 that’s leaking transmission fluid where the drive shaft comes out of the rear of the transmission how hard is it to change the seal

Hello New Holland owners. Does anyone here currently own, and/or have experience with a New Holland TN55, 65, or 70? I just recently purchased a 1999 TN55S with 8X8 transmission and left hand power reverser. It just arrived last night after dark. I did get a chance to try it out for about 20...

So I am getting closer to purchase of this new CK. Just wondering if I should care about the model year... if the dealer only has a '23 or '24 in stock, does it matter? Has there been any major changes/upgrades over the last few years? And another newbie question. So when I was out shopping, I...

TractorByNet experts, I was getting ready to pull the trigger on some big red iron in the form of an older International 986 or larger. No loader, 2 wheel drive. Recently, a T4.75 with 3000+ hours in really good shape became available. It has a loader and 4wd, and its about 10K more than the...

Bought this 2023 U27 in Oct 23 primarily for home projects, we live in a canyon with some steep slopes so terracing is the only way to get some flat space. I have built trails, dug trenches, cleared a pond, made a nice backdrop for shooting range, cleared ditches, replaced culverts, and soon...

So, I'm on my 3rd Branson (4220, 5220c and 5520c) and I had one little mouse burrow in behind the firewall and I cannot believe the damage it did. Strangely, it not only chewed through the jacketing on the wires, but also the copper as well. The tractor is usually stored indoors, but I stored...

I have a 2016 New Holland Boomer 47. It has 4 ranges with a four speed transmission and shuttle (f-n-r) driver on the column. When increasing the gear ratio, particularly in 3rd and 4th range the tractor bogs, slowing way down. The motor does not drag or decrease RPMs, just the drive portion...

Good afternoon, just introducing myself.. New to the forum. Family just purchased a New Holland Powerstar 110. I was informed "Pics or it didn't happen." So here's she is. Probably will never be this clean again. Literally, off the trailer.

Hi Everyone, Recently came from a Mahindra 3540PST which I was very pleased with over the last 7 years. I have bumped up to an RX7320P and I am also initially very pleased with it. Here are couple questions which I would like to better understand. 1. What do you guys run the RPMs at when...

No dog in the fight, just sharing information. Little too far from me, but looks like a good deal if you're near Harrisonburg VA. I was told 8.1 hours on the unit. FB Marketplace. 2022 Massey Ferguson GC1723E with backhoe and mowing deck. 2 Year Warranty with 5 Year Powertrain Warranty $23,400...

Attending a concert at Red Rocks amphitheater outside of Denver in August (really looking forward to that as wife got great seats by the stage). From Red Rocks, looking like we will be staying in Red River New Mexico for a week to check out New Mexico as well (we were thinking about spending...

Hi Guys, I have a T255HST on order. Any hints and tricks for this little tractor ?

I got a Kioti NS4710 HST last week and don't think it initially was like this, but am not certain. It's been somewhat cold (0-10 degrees) overnight. I have an engine block heater and the optional fuel warmer. I've been starting it and letting it run for 10ish minutes, then raising and lowering...

Could they possibly be making something more unsafe trying to make it safer? I got this fuel can a few weeks ago for chainsaw gas. Of course it dispenses fuel pretty slow which actually works ok for filling a chainsaw. There is mechanism you have manipulate that takes two hands to engage but...

I am into year two of a vacant 30 acre parcel, mostly woods, 5 acres of prarie, mix of flat and Michigan hilly. My MF135 with Davis 101a loader is super useful but it has no power steering and that loader will hold enough to make turning almost impossible. Its been great with the box blade...

Is anyone thinking of changing their investments with the new administration? I started changing mine after the election and, except for a couple weeks when the market dropped, so far it has paid off. Haven't gone full aggressive but far more so than a year ago. I only invest in mutual funds and...

Purchased 2000 New Holland Tl70 back in the summer for small holding. Started not wanting to drive forward when you start the tractor. Like it has no power in forward gears. Reverse is normal. Will drive forward if rev up. Can hold the tractor by breaking in forward but not in reverse. Currently...

My m59 is getting some new attachments soon! I ordered a Catawba land plane and HD box scraper which are set to arrive this week! Looking forward to getting my driveway in shape, as it's currently washing money away with the high amounts of rain we've been getting vs heavy snow fall this...

I have a TC55DA EHSS. I was running my tractor and as I started to park it, the tractor kind of rolled forward just a little. This was while I had the Inching peddle pushed all the down. It felt kind of like the inching peddle was giving a signal to move forward, the first time this has...

New here. I'll try and make it short. I have kind of same question as poster BUT will be specific with situation and WHY. Looking at KIOTI CK4020SEH with lift capacity of 1631lbs. the impliment I need to lift is 1388lbs on a regular. Meaning, impliment is a Verti Drain aerator. Will run/operate...

I have a 1996 New Holland 3930. I replaced the safety switch and wiring harness along with transmission cover gasket. I have transmission oil slowly coming out the safety switch wiring as it exits the cover. The filler cap and the small breather vent cap is located on top is approximately 6”...

Waking up to terrible news this morning. Apparently, a truck plowed through a crowd on Bourbon Street around 3 am this morning. I live about 2 hours from New Orleans, and I really don't want to visit there anymore. It's a fun, beautiful place to visit, but it is now also very dangerous...

Best wishes to Everyone for the new year. May 2025 grant all the rewards that 2024 withheld and may the curses of this last year become a distant memory going forward. Hoping for Health, Success, and Prosperity to all TBNers and their Families. (Good tractor times too)

Finally! A worthy non DPF option to the Kubota LX2620 factory cab! I really like it. No steering brakes, but the hydrostat is super quiet. Thanks for finding these Will!

Did a little work on the tractor today. The older 7320 has metal channel iron pieces you put on the cylinders for safety purposes when working under the loader to keep it from crashing down. The 7340 has a lever on one of the hoses that prevents the loader from coming down. My dealer didn't...

My new Kubota M6 front windshield washer drains back into the reservoir. It takes over 30 seconds to get water to the windshield. Dealer tech says they all do it. I have never had a tractor do it. If this is standard I can put a valve in the line but I cannot expect this happens to everyone...

I have never bought a tractor at a dealer, my last one was bought privately. Does the same deal negotiation go on at a tractor dealer as happens at an auto dealer? Looking at a B2601HSD and received a quote. What advice can this forum provide? Thank you!

My tractor sat covered for six months; I went to go start it, and had a 1200 amp jumper on the battery, but none of the lights on the dash went on; no horn; no flashers. I was sitting on the seat, it was in neutral, when I tried to jump start it; it was running fine with no problems the last...

Good Morning All, With 2 months off work, i've decided to tackle rebuilding my improperly built, rotting front deck. I'll post some "before" pictures later today, but the deck was approximately 40' long by 12' deep (5' in some places) and screwed directly into my siding. Not only was this deck...

Hi all. Thank you for this site!! Needing some help in understanding this shuttle. I parked the tractor after plowing a field and when I tried to move it the next day I couldn’t get it in forward. It will go into reverse just fine. I check the hydraulic fluid in the rear case and it is at the...

I just bought a 2007 Kioti DK65S, cab (1500hrs). I took a chance buying this from a dealer online and it arrived on Tuesday. So far, it is everything they said it was. I am pretty impressed how clean it is and how air tight the cab seems to be. The loader has a bigger lifting capacity than my...

How do you find top dead center for a new holland tc35d? Need to redo the timing

Was perusing Craigs List, and came across a T293, with just over 500-hours, heated cab, TX2000 FEL, rear blade, and the rarer than hen’s teeth factory front mount snow blower. I’ve been keeping my eyes open for a T233, T273 or T293 with a cab for a few years now. The guy I bought my T233 from...

I replaced my fuel leveler and my seat yesterday and now my hydraulics aren’t working. We filled the hydraulic fluid. It took the whole 5 gallon bucket. We see no leaks

I have a few of the older American SK tools (the ones that haven't walked off) and was a bit disappointed when the brand closed down. When they came back after Ideal sold them to a Chinese company I was a bit worried that it would just be another case of a Chinese company buying an American...

Trying to figure this one out. First had error code 81, jumpered the switch, then error code 82 showed up.

This will sound really dumb. I purchased my 1st tractor last December, I bought a trailer at the same time but since the tractor was delivered by the tractor company I have not used my trailer as of yet. I am currently getting chains etc.. for future move. When I bought the trailer i asked the...

well i finally got my tractor back this afternoon after 2 months - mostly waiting for glowplugs and gowpluge timer or some such thing. the driver told me that mahindra was boughten from the Indian manufacturer by some US company. anyone hear of this or have any details. He also said the US...

Good Morning, All, from South Carolina. I use a ten-year old Kubota L3200 and a much newer John Deere 3043D for bush hogging the field around the residence and to prepare food plots in the late Summer. I have owned six tractors, all were either JD or Kubota, and have enjoyed good service out...

I broke my 6" Northern Tool Chinese made bench vise yesterday, so I'm looking for a replacement. I've always considered the Wilton Tradesman to be the gold standard of vises, but at $600, it isn't cheap. Any recommendations for a similar vise, without breaking the bank? Or buy once, cry once?

Hi guys getting tired carrying my Echo 9010 backpack for long driveway cleaning, hurricane debris, and raking [blowing] leaves. using debris forks and some straps BINGO! sit in comfort on GC and use loader to direct blower outlet. works for me! Echo PB9010 one of only 2 super powerful blowers on...

While driving the tractor at night, the idiot light for the battery came on. I thought it was a problem with the Ater/generator. I was using it for a hayride and as long as I kept the RPMs up the light would go out. We tested the battery and it was weak so I purchased a new battery and put it in...

So, I am not a landscaper, just a small hobby farm guy, clearing my property, and making it "home". I have been using my SKIL 40V Power Core Line Trimmer (I call it a Weed Eater) around my house for some time now, with great results. But, now that I have moved onto the property, I needed a more...

Hello everyone, I'm the proud owner of a new MF GC1725MB! I really love it so far. I have 37 acres but most of it's woods, so aside from some trail maintenance I mostly work just on a few acres in the front. I've had an older MF 231 for a while but it's too big for most of what I need it for...

After years of hand jacking square bales from the trailer into horse stalls for storage, I bought a hay grapple to unload the trailer. Made it easier to stack them in the aisle next to the stall door but still labor intensive to put them in the stalls. I am building a new 30'X40'X14' hay barn...

Any insight, experience or opinion as to where the new SM series fits in with the YM and YT models? I can't find dimensions on the 37hp (?) SM model fits in.

We lost our yellow black mouth cur, Mason, just about a year ago, after he fell ill with a fungal lung infection that was misdiagnosed by multiple vets. It was a big loss for me, as he was my little buddy that followed me everywhere. My girls always teased me that he was the son I never had...

Hello been a long time visitor thought I should register, and and help share and recieve knowledge

Last year I had my riding mower break down while mowing in Somerville Texas. I had to finish before traveling back to Waller Texas, so I went to Burleson county Tractor Supply and bought this Troy-Bilt pony 42. The only one I could afford. I have only used it 2 or 3 times and now have my...

100% how I will feel when my 'new to me tractor' arrives. Do I just rev it up and pop the clutch in 3rd to get it to wheelie? :ROFLMAO:

I have some new rear remotes for the 3038e getting installed on the right side & wanted to redo the work lights to keep the lower right portion of the ROP clear for the remotes install. All wiring runs up the left, over & down for the right side mount. No penetration of the ROP for mounts or...

I purchased a new battery for the Jeep the other day after noticing the old one was going on 8 years old. While doing the research, I noticed that prices have increased drastically and yet, warranties have been reduced. Sign of the times I guess. At any rate, while prepping and installing, I...

Yanmar just released 3 new models, and they are all re-badged TYMs. https://www.equipmentworld.com/ag-equipment/utility-tractors-loaders/article/15683052/yanmar-releases-its-highest-horsepower-tractor-the-sm475

Have a new lx4020 and having a strange hydro pedal issue. When trying to reverse there’s a metal piece that looks like it raises up into the operator platform that snags (misaligned?). If I push it over it works fine but seems to snag regularly making reverse not work. Related the pedal also...

hey fellas, a few weeks ago I bought a new 5155 and in 8 hours of running it, the tractor performed flawlessly with a Mahindra Bush Hog. I mean it has been a beast. today I went to run and it started the PTO just fine and I was mowing about 5 minutes and noticed it wasn't really mowing...

Hello all, I recently acquired a 1967 MF 150 in a trade for a truck. I also have a 1962 Ford 851, that I use for everything around the property. The 150 has a lot of oil smoke on startup, which tells me maybe a valve job may be in order, but it does run well and most everything seems to work. I...

Is that just a dumb idea? Paying to get it hauled to the dealer would get expensive, but I would do all the basic maintenance and repairs myself, on site. Some of these 75-100hp utility tractors I'm looking at are going to be 7-10,000lbs with a loader. Factor in a trailer (4,000lbs? at least)...

Installed my new R4 take offs today. I found this complete set on Machinefinder a couple weeks ago. Brand new with rims. They still have the rubber tips on them. Upgraded from the 19-5 R4's.

I'm trying to understand what's going wrong here. This flail cutter has been used twice as it's brand new, and both times I've burned the belts. I spoke with the representatives at Betstco on Friday, and their mechanics walked me through a few troubleshooting steps. The first issue identified...

I use the FIND THREAD > UNANSWERED THREADS option for those with no replies. Most time it's those people with hard questions needing answers. Well, the AUCTIONS listings has now hundreds of postings and totally RUINED the feature on this site to help others. All I see now is the AUCTIONS...

Every day I check in and click on New posts. It seems now that nothing posted in Front Porch show up to me when I click New posts. I have to leave New posts and go to Front porch to see them.

At the top of my forums page is the following: [FS] Custom Forum Widget and scrolls thru items for sale. Is this something new that is supposed to be there

Not saying I would buy one, but this is a new truck on the market with amazing features. I like the base 6 cylinder diesel engine option. The product video is long but highlights some pretty innovative features.

New Holland TC45 diverter block leaking at supply junction. As a novice, should I attempt to repair leak in pto diverter block? Does it require removing the block from the tractor?

After countless hours of reading thru forums, watching reviews, looking at the dealers in person, talking with sales people. I finally convinced myself to put a down stroke on one today. Once I decided on a Grand L60 cab today, then I had to pick between a 54hp or 60hp which took me at least...

Inherited this tractor. It has 417 hours on it, and it is clean as a whistle! It really is a beauty. I am interested in any and all info you all can share with me on this particular model. I don't know much about Yan Mars, but grew up with Deere and a Pasquali. Intend to use it around my farm...

I recently purchased a MT226HEC to replace my old Long 35hp my neighbor gave me. It has a hydraulic link at the rear which allowed me to add a budget top link (pretty awesome). Do they (LS) make a kit to add hydraulics to the front for a grapple? I haven't called my dealer as I'm not quite...

I bought a shredder from the dealer here in Finland. Before I fired it up, I double-checked the mower deck and found that they had not installed one of the zerk fittings for the flail axle. I am disappointed that the dealership will take your money but not do their diligence in delivering a...

i have a 4550 mahindra, looking to trade for a new 6075. am i crazy.. almost readyto pull the trigger

I am getting rid of my Jinma 284 (25hp) as it has seen better days. Considering a Bobcat CT2025 that is a 25HP, 4WD. It is a 2024 model at $17K. I am wondering if anyone has had experience with Bobcat and your thoughts. Especially, the CT2025 model. Thanks in advance for sharing your views.
