    Best tires for snow?

    I can kind of see how on pavement where the snow has been removed, that turfs may do well. My dilemma is that I need to do snow removal on paved surfaces and on my neighbors dirt drive and some areas in the dirt road around my mail box. I guess there's no perfect option. Hopefully the...

    Anyone Heard of A New BX70-1

    I agree too, when there is a risk. But the fear of litigation can sometimes go too far. Better not leave your ROPS folded or someone might get on your tractor and roll it. What will the insurance company do if your 'having a cold' one while mowing. What about any Mods you do to your tractor...

    Anyone Heard of A New BX70-1

    Removing the ROPS also makes it easier to pass under the laundry line and avoid branches (and no, I don't want to cut my branches shorter). Tell me, umm...how many people override safety switches on everything from lawnmowers to heavy equipment. What a worry-wort society we live in.

    New BX25D (Leaking)

    Yeah, I got in touch with the dealer. They sent a guy out today who was very nice, changed out the coupling and took his time to make sure there were no other leaks. I hope to have a go with some light backhoe work tomorrow. Hopefully it is all sorted now.

    BX25D-Curtis Cab Install (All Steel)

    It will probably be a couple of years before I can get my cab. Perhaps a bit sooner. I have a Toro Groundsmaster with a cab that I bought for pushing snow around but I might just sell it and use the money towards the Curtis Cab:o What was the cost of the cab and heater? Could the heater be...

    Best tires for snow?

    Well, I'm glad to hear that at least some people say that the R4's (Industrial Tread) are ok for snow. I was getting ready to panic buy a set of Ag's. I guess I'll wait and see....

    Can anyone else comment of turf tires in snow? As compared to Industrial.

    Best tires for snow?

    Yeah, I don't get that either. He said they work more like snow tires on a car. I could see mayby turfs with chains, but turfs on their own don't seem right to me.

    Best tires for snow?

    Hi All, I just bought a BX25D with industrial tires and an extra set of turf tires. I aksed the maintenance guy how the industrial tires would perform in snow and he said that turf tires actually work better. Previously, I had used Ag tires (for winter) on my BX1850 abnd they worked great...

    New BX25D (Leaking)

    Hi All, I just had my new BX25D delivered last Thursday. I was a little disappointed to find that it was a 'D' and not the newest 'D-1' and that it already had 5.2 hours on it and was showing some evidence of being stored outside. But other than that I have another more worrying problem. It's...

    Jack up the tractor??

    Hey, excellent vid...Thanks Skeet! I'll try and check this weekend but I am still not sure that my 2006 BX1850 will have the clearance. I'll try to double check this weekend. It could use a grease job and clean anyway. Thanks again for taking the trouble to post the video:)
