GC2310 Help!!!

[thdavey]

Bought a 2310, love it. Bought several implements at the same time, not MF but whatever the dealer recommended. At the time he asserted that the implements would fit the tractor.

Problem is the auger, a Bush Hog PHD2101. This thing is a brute. I am unable to get all three connections to the 3 point hitch connected at the same time without having the auger head over a foot off the ground. There just isn't enough distance between the tractor's upper hitch point and the lower arms to accomodate the spacing of the connection points on the auger.

Anyone have any experience with this? Are there other augers that will fit better? Is there a way (and is it safe) to lower the lowest point the 3PH arms will go?

My dealer said he would check with Bush Hog and Massey, but claimed that all augers have same connection point spacings.

Any help or advice will be GREATLY appreciated.

You will need th yoke in the set of holes closest to the front.

Try this on for size:

Woods PHD

There are four holes. I should have said the hole closest to the front and the bottom.

I have a similar problem with my GC2310 and a King Ku**er PHD. I was able to get the 3P to attach ok, but with the top point in the hole closest to the tractor, I can not raise the PHD w/9"auger high enough to clear the ground. I have to swing the auger forward and latch it to the lifting pole to be able to travel with the PHD on the tractor. Other than that it works fine.!!
Anyone else have this situation?
