    MX Series rear remotes

    I got that exact same set up on my MX5800. I always got them hooked up for top and tilt. They come in handy with my hydraulic blade too! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Seat Safety Switch

    I put a L3901 in my pond because of that stupid lawyer switch. I was bush hogging the freeboard side and turned too far to see the tail wheel touch the water. Tractor shut off. My first move was to hit the switch (PTO was engaged, so that move was wrong). Next move was hit the brakes...too late...

    Brush Guard Ideas

    I just pull the pin as normal and the guard tilts forward. If you look very close at the expanded metal in the photo you can see that it is actually two pieces. When I tilt the guard forward to access the hood the fold of the expanded metal just bypasses the cut of the other piece of expanded...

    Totally discouraged

    Have you looked at the universal joint on the PTO shaft? When the needle bearings wear out they are notorious for making that squeak, squeak, squeak sound. May want to grease the universal or replace it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    I will ask him. He will need the grill off the tractor so he can do it in his shop. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Brush Guard Ideas

    I got the idea from a member on OTT; tlefire. I got a fabricator to build the guard for me. It has saved me several times. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Does anyone own the Lane Shark cutter??...

    I bought a Lane Shark several months ago, I have no complaints. Well built implement and it does exactly what it is designed to do. I have it attached to an MX5800 and it saves an incredible amount of time limbing up trees and keeping the hard to get to areas clean. I would recommend it to...

    MX5800 (200 hour service)

    Hey guys and gals, not posted in a while but I have been enjoying reading your posts. I am at hour 202 on my MX5800 and was wondering what the 200 hour service entails. I looked in the manual and it is confusing. My dealer says he will do the same service as the 50 hour service. Your guidance is...

    Ordered an EA Wicked Grapple today.

    Wicked Grapple arrived two weeks earlier than expected. Got a chance to use it over the weekend. What an awesome product by Everything Attachments! Just outright awesome craftsmanship and quality. No complaints. This is my first grapple and after only a weekend of use I can say that the...

    MX5800...it has arrived!

    I think the mechanic may have forgot to do that. They sent the adjustment with the tractor along with the center link. I will add the adjustment to the left side tomorrow. I assume by adding the adjustment you can shorten the left side and make the tilt greater and lengthen it to make the tilt...
