Hi, i just bought a wheel loader and found the TractorByNet full of information on many of the things that I wonder about.

I bought the loader mainly to clear some snow, but I also plan to buy a work-basket (right term?) to use on the pallet forks to get the snow off the roof of my house. The loader is about 7500 lbs (3400kg) and comes with snow and sand buckets, hydraulic pallet fork, and a hydraulic v-plow. I might buy a snow-blower if needed, but that will be next year. Hope to get some snow this winter

I have no experience driving these things, but will like to learn.

G'day Mate and welcome to TBN from Downunder.

Enjoy the site.

Hi All

I am Michael, new to this forum. I am A home farmer and having samson tractor modal M. I bought a used tractor and just wanted to know how can I maintain its reliability so I can use this for long term work.

Good Day

Really Michael? <sarcasm> In a different thread you stated that for 1 acre of land you have a Claas Axion 900 series tractor?!? A 410hp tractor? Well, no wonder you're looking for a few more (3, to be exact) acres. :laughing:

Oh, but let's not forget your Samson Model M... when was it built Mate? (here's a hint, somewhere between 1918 - 1922) At least the Samson Model D was only built in 1919.

If you're going to ADVERTISE by 'stealth' (with your bottom of the post links)... you might try actually being 'stealthy'.

 

[Spanner]

Ah I just went looking and found those other posts Waggy. Stealthy indeed! I presume one has to pay to advertise on here?
I wish I could run one Claas per acre.

 

[Wagtail]

Yeah, Mate. I've been noticing over the previous months some weird people joining TBN, mostly starting with an introduction thread, but the profile details (mainly the tractor listed) or their story just doesn't add up.

I couldn't put my finger on what was wrong... certainly not enough to use the triangle to report them.

Welp, good old michael001 got greedy. Or lazy. In his 3rd posting, he included the advertising links.

:detective:

I just take them at face value - until now. I just looked up the Profile to find the other threads you referred to.

Wonder if that's got anything to do with the "Sunday Forum Corruption Syndrome" we've been suffering?

:scratchchin:

 

[Wagtail]

Dunno about the Sunday shenanigans, although I'm aware of them.

Seeing as you & I live 'in the future' to our North American friends, they're usually fixed by the time we wake up.

Congrats on your new toy

Thank You Catherine.
I was supposed to get it delivered today, but now it seems tomorrow will be the day. Days, Months, and Years seems to get shorter when you get older, but sometimes time still passes at a snail's pace

Watch YouTube videos on it until it arrives. That's how I would pass my time. :laughing:

Michael's disappeared. Keep up the good work Detective Wagtail! :salute:
