    Brand new implement rust and bent

    Those of you who have been giving the OP a hard time for asking about what to do about his grapple that he received NEW, on a pallet, with a bent tine, are full of s***. If you had received a product like that, you would be on here screaming bloody murder. Back off and stop giving the OP such a...

    Hanix Mini Giant excavator?

    I have one of the Ingersall Rand air saws that I have had for 30+ years. I don’t use it much, but works great getting into small spaces.

    3 pt hitch install after 9 years

    Do you have the owners manual for the backhoe? It will tell and show you how to take the backhoe off.

    LX4020 mid-mount mower deck

    Have you checked out the owners manual? Usually for most models it is in there. Have you asked your dealer? Being a new model tractor there is not many on here who have one.

    What Attachment?

    One thing to consider MRudy86, and that is how much time you want to spend picking rocks after tilling your land. Unless you are one of the lucky ones to one the 10% of total New England land that is rock free, using any sort of chisel plow or cultivator that everyone is pushing you to buy, will...

    What Attachment?

    The best implement for use if you have only one to choose from is a disc harrow. Keep going over and over BUT each time, go a different direction that is at an angle to the first time. This will help chop up everything and fill in the ruts. Also, plan on this taking time, possibly a few weeks so...

    Open Discussion

    Don’t talk bad about your competition, instead, point out features that are better on a Kubota. Bad mouthing competition is a turn off and to me really means that you don’t know what you are talking about and don’t know your product, so it is easier to just talk trash about the competition.

    Lost a tire today, now what?

    Most likely you lost air pressure over time, then with cold weather it dropped even more to the point that the tire could not hold a grip on the rim. Try blowing it back up and if it will reseat on the rim, then monitor it for a few days and see what happens.

    M7040 Slower than normal in higher gears

    Did you let the tractor warm up good before changing the oil? Possibly you have some condensation moisture in the oil and it froze somewhere when it got cold. It would take quite a while to thaw out because all that steel holds the cold for a long time.

    Rural water pressure from well and how to improve

    Dave, your posting is very interesting, particularly how technology has changed the way water systems are set up. Unfortunately, there is always a few on OTT who think that they are better than the rest and go out of their way to make sure everyone knows that they know more than everyone else...

    Rural water pressure from well and how to improve

    Nobody seems to understand that these Variable Speed Drives are actually Variable Frequency Drives which are converting 1 phase electric into 3 phase electric to be able to change the speed of the motor to meet the demand. The motor on the pump is now a 3 phase instead of 1 phase. The 3 phase...
