New L2501
- Thread starter fenderbender
- Start date
I have had my L2501 for about 3 months so far I'm very impressed. Depending on what you are doing with it you will love it. Sometimes maybe a little under powered but for a 25hp tractor it does a pretty good job for me
I have had my L22501HST for 9 months now. Got 97 hours on it. They are tough little machines. I am maintaining 35 acres of pasture with it. The loader is great. Lots of torque when pulling. Only complaint I have is a lack of horsepower when going uphill with a 5 ft bush hog.
Eray have you pulled any aerators renovators or rippers with your 2501 and if so how did it handle them
Just yard work and cleaning up. We bought some land that has been neglected and needs a lot of cleaning up. Been using it around the house here too. My wife's list of projects continues to grow

I love mine so far. We have some steep hills here on our 10 acres and I thought that I would have to use low range all the time, this has not been the case. I use medium and find that backing off the hydrostatic control pedal when the engine rpm drops while climbing works great. The tractor slows but continues up the hill. Before I discovered this, I stalled the engine on a steep grade with the loader bucket full of dirt. That scared me as the tractor started rolling backward when I tried to start out again. I thought that keeping the rpm up and pushing all the way down on the hydrostatic pedal was the correct way, not so.
Clearly this is my first tractor but it is doing everything and more than I expected. This machine is awesome

I have been doing some soil moving with a 5 foot landscape box with the 5 rippers all the way down. It has unbelievable torque pulling. It rips up hard ground like it is nothing. It must be geared a lot lower to the wheels than to the PTO or something. I can't believe how much stronger the tractor is when pulling than when turning a PTO implement.
