When your guardrails get wet, it’s perfectly acceptable to simply leave them in the sun to dry. There’s really no need to wring them out like a dishrag. But as is often stated here after an opinion… YMMV.

If you think there’s any chance it’s legitimate, you have the two phone numbers for the two businesses located at the same address. Call both and see what they each have to say about the other. If they share space, they should be familiar. I wouldn’t hesitate to drive 200 miles for that deal...

There appears to be a legit tractor dealer at the 1445 Main St address listed on the web page associated with the link you posted, but the web page doesn’t match and neither does the phone number. https://www.woodburytractor.com/ Woodbury Tractor looks like a legit dealer. Case IH Agriculture...

Kind of reminds me of a manual fork rack. No grease requires hammer, kicks from sturdy boots, cussing optional. Lots of grease just makes a mess. A light coating of grease disbursed evenly on mating surfaces makes things move easily. Near miraculous difference. I would lightly grease the slidy...

If you don’t already have a hydraulic top link and you want a bit more clearance for this type thing, it’s something to consider. Pulling the toplink all the way in with the lift fully raised gives more clearance than simply raising the lift. I’ve found that particularly useful raking leaves...

Had a tree in the pond. Not a big one. Needed to come out. A bit of a PITA because it was about 90% rotten the first 12’ or so and split 3 ways when it fell. There was nothing near solid ground to hook to. Whether running a chainsaw, rigging lines, cleaning drain pipes, or anything else, seems...

Sounds like a good day…

Pull the 3 point control lever to full up position. If the 3 point goes to the top of its range of motion without the relief valve bypassing, it’s adjusted properly. So how do you know it’s at top of range of motion? How do you know the relief valve isn’t bypassing? Range of motion: With...

Hit the wrong button the first time. Had to edit. 😬

Cleared some deadfall off the trails a couple days ago. Grapple and winch both made it much quicker and safer than chainsaw and muscle. Neglected to take pics. Need to go back with the bucket to deal with a stump hole left from a fallen pine after removing the maple tree that fell in the pond...

Very realistic picture IME. My girl also enjoys hanging out in skimpy bathing suits on the yacht with a pipe threader. OK, so I don’t have a yacht or a pipe threader. At least I got a girl…

Thankfully, only one experience with a notice. Shortly after I bought my L4701 new from a dealer, I received a stop use letter direct from Kubota (not dealer) due to a potentially mis-torqued bolt in the transmission. According to my dealer’s service manager, if this particular bolt came all...

The extent of my experience operating a BX is limited to driving one around a dealer lot for approximately 3 minutes. I have, however, used turnbuckle/chain stabilizers, fixed length flat iron stabilizers, variable length rod stabilizers, and telescopic stabilizers (obviously on a variety of...

Second the water level suggestion. You can make one or buy one. An electronic version such as below makes one person operation easier. I have a store bought one around here somewhere but I’d be hard pressed to find it. Now I’m wondering where it is and probably will until I find it.😕...
