After watching Project Farm's testing on his YouTube channel (I highly recommend subscribing to it if you haven't already), I have been using Hot Shot's Secret Diesel Winter Anti-Gel. I plan on using it from October- March here in the Northeast.

Agreed. The mid frame compact size was best for my property and my needs. It doesn't perform tasks as quickly as full size utility tractors, but if you have a solid plan and reasonable expectations, you can accomplish a great deal.

Thank you. Its attached to an LX2610 that I got earlier this month. Still working on finishing the 3rd function install which is why the hoses are coiled up and the pin is still in. I was very happy with it clearing the two feet of snow that we got on Thursday.

Yeah once you cut them off I'd either use C clamps or tack it until you find what works best. Here is a picture of my Land Pride blade if it is helpful. Sorry for the snow as its been busy lately.

Is your current setup single cylinder angle or dual cylinder angle?

I'm hoping to get the snapped bolt drilled out tomorrow and tonight I mocked up the hard lines with packaging tape to try to install them like this. Stay tuned...

@Fatfenders you don't happen to have a mid mount mower do you? I've read mixed reviews on whether 2" spacers would work with a mid mount mower on the B2650/LX2610 and R4 tires. Was hoping someone could confirm if this would work with R14 tires.

After further research, I realized the other combo switch requires a seperate hazard switch. Because of that, I may just run a seperate horn switch as I like the idea of being able to warn others when reversing, but not at 4:00am or 11:00pm.

There is a switched 12v for the rear work lights under the right rear fender so that's definitely an option I can research further. Also, I noticed the B2650 with the cab option has a horn where the hazard switch is on my ROPS LX2610. Any chance I could just replace the switch and possibly add a...

Thank you both as these seem like promising options!

Haha thanks for the suggestions. It is a hydrostatic transmission. We got two feet of visible snowflakes yesterday so I got quite a bit of seat time.

Good idea thank you. I'm not a big fan either but the neighbors kids run around unsupervised on my property and if it doesn't provide a warning for them, I'm hoping that it annoys the hell out of thier mother.

Since neither the LX2610 or the B2650 have reverse lights, is there any way to add a reverse alarm or is everything only mechanical? I know some people hate them but while plowing yesterday I really wished I had one in case people approached unexpectedly.

Are your hazard bulbs leds by any chance? If so, they can only be wired one way instead of either way like incandescent bulbs. If they are, look at the wiring on the working side and swap the wiring on the non working side and see if that corrects it.

I agree with Roadworthy. If the bulbs, fuses, and connections are known to be good, the flasher and switch assemblies would be the next places I'd look.

Love me some Project Farm reviews.

I'm of the opinion that the 60" bucket will be more useful for what I will use it for (moving gravel, dirt, snow, mulch, etc.). For anything other than basic grading, I would rent a machine that is designed to do that kind of work. Just my opinion however.

So I'm always willing to admit responsibility for poor decisions and this is no exception. I realized today that metric bolt grades are in no way equivalent to standard bolt grades. For those unaware, a grade 5 standard bolt is your average bolt and a grade 8 is a hardened bolt. A grade 2 bolt...

Yeah I have had similar problems with the bulk bolts there in the past so I purchased two M6 x 40mm individually wrapped cap screws from the drawers. All I can think of is that they were low carbon and I got too aggressive trying to make it fit when tightening initially. Then when I attempted...

As requested. Sadly, tonight did not go as planned. I removed the boom cylinder and routed the hard lines. This was fairly easy. The issue was when I tried to install the new tube stays to secure the hard lines in the loader arm. Even though I routed them exactly as depicted, the new bolt didn't...
