    Front Blade

    Latest project is a fel mounted blade for snow. This is just a very simple blade, it does not angle. The loader is off of my old B7200 and I just don't think it is strong enough to take that kind of pressure. Also the quick attach plate is not heavy enough. The reason I am building this is...

    Hey Guys. I took the b7200 to my local dealer because I thought the hydrostat was weak. I called today and they said that they checked the charge pressure it dumped to nothing.

    OK I lied, the b7200 is back.

    I sold my b7200 and figured I would never see it again. But the fellow who bought it put a rear mower on it and the tractor will not pull it up the hills, and these are not very steep hills.this is in high range. The hydrostat was never that powerfull in my opinion but it always did what I...
