I bought my Kubota BX1860 last November and readied it for the winter snow. Equiped it with chains and hydraulic front blade and was good to go, however, never got any snow............anyway, come summer put the belly mower on it and am pleased with it's mowing capabilities. Living in central Virginia I was a victim of that damned derecho that came though in late June and I have been using the 1860 to pull trees around to cut up. Mostly bull pines that are 30 feet in length. I attach a 4500# log chain to the cleavis, put it in 4WD and pull away. Makes me happy to be able to do that kind of stuff. Anyway, an exacavator came out to finish up some of the tree work and I was telling him about my Kubota and how happy I was with it's power to pull tree trunks around. He made the comment to be careful with it, that I could damage the transmission. How do I know if I'm going to damage the transmission?
