3 ph position control, bi-speed turning, hyd. lift

civilrider · Oct 5, 2003

Where in the B series line do tractors start to have position control on the 3ph. I know that the BX and 7500 don't and I think the 2410 does. But what about prior year models like the 1750, 2100, 2400 and others.

The other question is about the bi-speed turn feature. Is it worth while. What are its main purposes.

Finally what prior year models have the quick attach mechanism for implements similar to the current BX series. I'm especially interested in the 1750, 2100, and 2400 models.
Thanks

The B2410 is the first current model with position control and the only model with the bi-speed option. It is a $400.00 option used for mowing as it decreases your turning radius and helps lessen turf scuffing. Those options were available on the prior B4200 also. Hope this helps.

Eqipman's responses were correct to my knowledge. I have a B2410 and it indeed has position control. If you plan to use a box blade, don't let anyone tell you it's not helpful to have position control.
I also have bi-speed turn. I assume you know it only works in fwd and rotates the front of the tractor at about 1.7 times the normal speed. I'm not sure if this will help much mowing, unless you mow in fwd, but I do use it regularly when working in tight spots. I hadn't ordered it on my tractor, but the dealer threw it in for the same price since he couldn't locate a tractor without it. I use it much more than I thought I would. It helps turn the tractor much quicker and is a nice substitute for the ridiculous design of the individual brakes and forward hydo pedal being on the same side.
Sorry I really can't help much with the older design of the B2400 but I know there are members on the boards who have them. Good luck.
