My tractor is too big or the kitchen is too small! I'd like something on rubber tracks to carry those 40 to 50lb sacks of dog food up the steps and dump into the bin!

That is what child labor is for. Problem is they move out over time and it takes too long to raise another set.

Thats a big reason I purchased my L 3901. One back surgery 2013 and the second pending.

We are just simply trying to stay on our property as long as we can and this little orange beast has been a huge blessing. I have relocated allot of junk and filled the trailer twice with scrap.....soooooo easy with the tractor.

I moved two yards of #2 stone "up there". I had to back up the field then go forward and down hill, get in position and back up to the work, dump and get another load. They excavated a French drain and a small dry well so #2 + perf pipe + sock sleeve, back fill with #2 then topsoil. This 'ol gal earned her diesel today - I also moved dirt from the excavation site to the garden plot in the back field so win/win. To be honest there was no room for a front loader and ballast box in this case. Very tight to the chicken coop, trees, and rock walls. Once you get the hang of it these are really neat attachments.

Today I discovered that my B2920 has a center PTO. Who knew?
Damn man, I was worried about that today working with the new B Hogg for the first time on the sides of my road. Had the pucker happening a few times.:eek: Hope your Betsy comes back on her feet with no damage.

Moved a bunch of dirt for the outbuilding addition, using both the miniX and the tractor to their best advantage. Moving the dump bed trailer, loaded like it was and with just the scraper blade on the tractor rear for counterweight (plus my filled tires) was handier with the tractor then using the pickup.

I now have 10 whole hours on my new BX1880! Yesterday I ripped out a ton of stumps, cleared a path through the woods and built myself a small access path to my woodpile, moved a bunch of cut logs and then smoothed things out.

Now let's hear the rest of the story.:)
well ok.

So I was clearing some space for a pole shed that I'm building. I cut down a tree which didn't fall entirely in the direction I had planned so it fell between two trees. I was using the chain on the bucket and 4WD with front tires turned to the other side so as to pull the tree out horizontally. The end of the trunk was somewhat high off the ground, about 3-4' so I had the bucket raised as well so I could pull slightly upward... As I was doing that, the right rear tire came off the ground. When the tire comes off the ground, I have developed an autonomous reaction to immediately lower the FEL, which in this case, caused the tractor to roll.

Anyway, I had the ROPS up and as the tractor started to go, I hopped clear and watched it fall. So I was completely unscathed.

I looked at it for a few seconds before realizing I should probably turn the engine off (it was still running).

That's when I noticed hydraulic fluid running out of the vent, down the rops and into the left turn signal light.. Once the turn signal was about half full of hydraulic fluid, it started dribbling on the ground. I then finally understood what blinker fluid is.

My son came by with a 60" Hi-lift jack. We put it under the ROPS and jacked it up full. The hi-lift was nicely stuck under the hinge point for the ROPS. Once we got it jacked all the way up, it was a simple push to flop it back down on all fours.

I gave it about 10 minutes for oil in the cylinders to drain back into the sump and then started it up. It fogged for mosquitos a good 10 seconds and then ran fine. Didn't lose any engine oil, fuel and not much hydraulic fluid.

No visible damage to the tractor at all except an oily left blinker.
