So I took my dash apart last night to do some tests. I think I may have figured out what the issue is. Time to break out the soldering iron I guess. Hopefully that's the only spot that was eaten... After soldering it back together it started first crank. At least now I know all my sensors...

According to the manual (I never actually noticed when the tractor was in operation) the parking brake has an indicator right on the dash by all the other warning lights. I'll give your advice a shot, I have been busy with other work and the tractor has been sitting in the field for a few weeks...

Thanks for the advice everyone. I've checked all the fuses and they're fine. I took off both battery cables and cleaned the connections. I've double checked with my battery tester the battery is both charged and good to go. I moved all the levers around to see if maybe one of them wasn't set...

My B2650 was running fine, then I parked it overnight and when I came back to finish the job I was doing the tractor will not start. The dash lights up, the two red oil pressure and glow plug lights come on. One click and then nothing, no turn-over. I charged the battery to full and checked...

Amazon has a Grease Gun category? Huh, never would have thought. My grandfather had a great grease gun that he used for 20 years then passed it on to me where I used it for probably 5 years before it "walked off" on one job. I have gone through more grease guns than tubes of grease since...

From what I was reading on a bbq forum a while back these don't even smoke all that well since they're wild and don't have much fat. They're basically "garbage" meat like those horrible asian jumping carp that invaded the Mississippi.

He's not talking about a pin that holds the backhoe on he's talking about the pin you put in to keep it from swinging when you're transporting it. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Must be solid titanium for $55!

That looks really heavy duty! I can see how they justify the price. The pictures they have on their site make it look like it would be much longer. I imagine that this would hold up really well to heavy (ab)use picking rocks and stumps. This looks really slick. The serrations are really...

No kidding? Looking at it it seemed that since it is longer than the other ones it would require you to get much closer to the stump than the other ones to get leverage. Could I bother you for a picture or two? The one tiny picture on the site doesn't really show much and I have had no luck...

I was all gung-ho to buy a 3 point hitch attached power rake until I saw the $8k price tag :eek: Maybe if I decide that I should become a landscaper I could justify it!

I have been looking at picking up either the Bro-Tek Ripper or the BXpanded Talon Ripper. I can't really decide between them. The Bro-Tek appears to have the ability to add on a trencher shield and overall seems to be geared more toward trenching than stump removal. I have a bunch of stumps...

It was not an easy decision as the salesman I dealt with I'm sure will attest. I really hate to open my wallet. I just felt that I should get the backhoe now rather than wait then possibly never get it. Same thing with the grapple. I have an old 57 with a backhoe on it so I could probably...

Well, I ended up getting the B2650 with quick attach forks, grapple and bucket as well as a backhoe with 16" bucket and filled turf tires. $30500 before tax. It was juuuust slightly more than I wanted to spend ($20k) but I think I'll be much happier with this tractor than the BX. I better be...

So I think I've made a decision. I'm going to go down and buy the B2301. The size and extra lifting capacity swayed me. Of course there's also the B2601 and B2650. Is that extra 3 horsepower on the B2601 worth it? What extra goodies are there on the B2650 that would make it worth the premium?

Ah I see. That seems unnecessarily annoying... I was only on one that had the BH attached and it was raining so I didn't even have the opportunity to play with the hydraulics. I'm going to go back to the dealer tomorrow I think to look it over again. Assuming it's not raining again that is.

The 3 point position control seems to be a pretty big issue. I will be doing some work with it but it won't be the primary use for the tractor. My old tractor's 3 point hitch had a wingnut and bolt that was used to stop the handle for the position control. Is there not something similar on...

I recently sold a good amount of my property so I am looking at downsizing my tractors. I currently have an ancient Ford 641 that I used for site work such as (dirt) plowing and grading and an 861 with a loader and backhoe that I used for everything else. I'm going from ~100 acres to 2 so...
