Cleaning up Brush with the 45

Oleozz · May 23, 2006

Final pic, shows more of the tractor than the brush being lifted. It is nice working inside, not something I've been used to but am getting accustomed to real quick. For a lot of the lifting I didn't even need 4wd, even when digging in the heavy soil. Only complaint on this tractor is the on/off of the FEL, so far everything else has worked well.

What do you mean? Taking it off and on?

I want to gather up the dirt also so it is working fine. This will be an area where I am going to be doing some dog training so don't want to fall over piles of dirt. I had attempted to burn those brush piles before with no success. The top of the loader bucket, so far, is handling the stress fine. I put it back as far as I could on the top, bolted it down with 6 bolts, am careful about backing away with a load and not twisting and pulling when the arm is down. The Dehner grapple is a beast, seems suited for that size tractor.

What about the FEL on/off comment? I'm curious as to what you meant about that. I assumed you meant the taking off and putting on of it.

KJ---I posted something a while back, it's on page 2 entitled, I Will Never Take My Loader Off Again. It's about my trials and tribulations with the 451 loader removal, no big deal compared to the problems that many are having with the cracked loaders but at the time was frustrating.
