I added a FEL to my BX2200 purchase as a last minute, not well researched, splurge. The first thing I did when the tractor arrived was to remove the loader and get familiar with the tractor and mower deck without any unnecessary complications.
This week was to be my loader training week. I ordered a load of topsoil to play with and it will be delivered 1st thing tomorrow morning. Today, I pulled out the loader manual and read about something the dealer never mentioned -- additional (beyond loaded tires) rear ballast.
So, it looks like I may have a pile of dirt sitting around my yard until I can figure out the best way of adding more ballast. Are there other ballast options readily available for the BX2200 aside from 3pt implements? If not, it looks like I'll be buying my 1st 3pt implement too. The rear blade looks like something I should be able to put to pretty good use. Any recommendations? Thanks.
