I made this up one afternoon. Works fine and I use it a lot. M

I haul my MX4800 2 or 3 times a week. I have an IronMan 24' with 2x17k axels and electric brakes. It is a hydraulic tilt trailer, takes 5 minutes to load or unload. With my grapple or bucket and 6' LP rotary cutter the tail wheel sets just off the back. I haul it behind my Ford F250 Superduty...

I have the LP on my MX4800 and it is the most useful implement I own. I have no experience with other grapples. I agree that you should see if the dealer will come down. M

That is a beautiful piece of work. Would like to have one for my MX. Only addition/correction would be an opening above the plate on the bottom as that is where I thread my chain thu when I put it on the trailer, which is often. My MX is about a year and a half old, 140 hrs and already I have...

As Air Force One arrives at the Heathrow Airport, President Trump strides to a warm and dignified reception from the Queen. They are driven in a 1934 Bentley to the edge of central London, where they change to a magnificent 17th century carriage hitched to six white horses. They continue on...

Yesterday, at 143.8 hrs I had my third regen on my MX4800. Could not have happened at a worse time. I was about 100' up a very steep grade, with my grapple pulling blackberry vines out to swamp in a new trail/path. It was steep enough that if I stopped I would just spin 4 wheels if I tried to go...

That is an excellent suggestion. I purchased a Lincoln wire feed for about 350 a few years back and it has made many good easy to do welds. That said, I used to be lazy and would leave my MMM on my bx2660 at times when I was doing other work, I hit rock or stumps with one of the wheels and bent...

Checked the coupling bolts, I got about a quarter turn on one, others ere tight. A little bit of runout on the driveshaft but not excessive. There was a buildup of grass between the shaft and the plate under it. no play in the shaft. Vibration is interment. I used it for about an hour or so...

I noticed it When mowing. I stopped, disengaged the MMM, and throttled up slowly to see if it was the mower, that is why I was sitting still with no implement attached at 2000 rpm. checked the fans and belts, I have noticed it is at idle as well. Think I will check the injectors M

On the bare or rusty spots underneath: After washing it well, grind the bare spots a bit, then coat with OSPHO, which is phosphoric acid. It is what we use on ships, it stops rust and makes a base for paint. Let it dry a bit, Then I spray it with a rattle can of paint. Done this for years...

Yesterday my bx2660 2012 with about 300 hours, developed a vibration. no attachments, not moving, I feel it around 2000 rpm. Very slight, but there. I can feel it in the steering wheel and through the seat. Any ideas? M

Put in in a press and straightened it with no problems. Works great now. Thanks all for the info. M

see if I can upload a photo from my phone.

I backed into a hole and bent the tailwheel fork spindle on my 326-668H Land Pride brush hog. Anyone had luck straightening this? worried about weakening it. M

Two chains and one binder. Both my BX and my MX I use the same chains and the same procedure. I drive it on the trailer, about a foot forward of where I want her, hook a chain at the front right corner of the trailer, pass it thru the front grill guard, then back to the left front corner and...

A Priest a Pastor, and a Rabbi walk into a bar....

I thought I had a lot of blackberries in Amboy... Then I got a place in Cathlamet ... I had no idea... but this and my grapple keeps them slightly at bay.. I have to say, I love my backhoe... almost as much as I love my grapple. It goes on and comes off in less than 5 minutes. Thing that...

OLDER people have problems that you haven't even considered yet ! A 71-year-old man was requested by his Doctor for a sperm count as part of his physical exam. The doctor gave the man a jar and said, 'Take this jar home and bring back a semen sample tomorrow.' The next day the 71-year-old...

I have had my LandPride GC1072 almost a year now, 98 hours on my tractor and probably 50 to 60% of it using the grapple. I have picked up stumps which the loader would only roll, not lift. I routinely open it and drag it backwards picking up rocks, limbs etc. I use it to pull up small trees...

I regularly move my 3000lb 24' trailer with my BX. it does it wit ease. I have moved it with my mx4800 , 6' brush hog and grapple loaded on board, A bit of a strain but it gets it moved. M
