How would you improve your tractor?

   / How would you improve your tractor? #12  
I'd add a tool box, cup holder, working hour meter, place to hold some chains, hydraulic top link and tilt, 3 point down pressure, wider stance, etc. I recently was wanting a workbench to mount my vice on and figured it would fit on my tractor. It bolts onto my brush guard and clears the hood barely went mounted forward. I can also turn it to the side. I've already used it to fix small things. Since it is held on with 1 bolt, i can easily remove it before i got out working in the woods.

I can only think of 2 things.

1-For my land, in mid-range 4th is to fast, 3rd painfully slow
2-The shuddle shift wires under the tractor are not protected. When clearing land I am always think I am going to get them ripped out.

A better system for stowing the BH hoses when using the three point hitch.
With 58 hrs on it you can see signs that the hoses have been dragging on the
three point arms. Two bungee cords and a prayer every time I change over now.

A tractor that can transform to whatever I need at the time.:D I'd like to have a bigger hour meter on my Kioti. Already gots a cup holder- I thinks it needs to be a cooler. That's it-a space to mount the cooler.:D:licking:Standard Pats easy change, top n tilt, lights on loader and rops. Toolbox for chains.

4- The tail lamps on the ROPS should be designed so they can folded in-ward of the bar to prevent snagging of trees and such while operating in close quarters.
4-Thats one reason to go with the widest MMM you can get.
Keeps tractor farther away from things such as trees walls ditches and banks resulting in less damage danger & back breaking trimmer use.



2 For some reason when using my 3pt lift I have grabbed the gear selector and shifted into neutral instead of lowering the 3pt. Maybe a little lock-notch in the fender to prevent this?
2*This can be a disastrous error on a BX going up or down hill.
Very scary!


On mine a good operator would make a world of difference!:thumbsup:

Well of course:thumbsup:

A good operator can have many different conotations.:D
This can be very hard to find :drool:

That's when it first happened going down backwards, tried to lower the BB and :shocked:!!!!! Right into neutral she went, smooth as glass.
I need to figure out how to avoid this. Quickly!!!

You Massey boys aren't alone, of course. I might begin with:

- improving the 3 pt arms and check turnbuckles on the BX.
- give it a better hour meter and readable tach.
- might even offer true position control on the 3 pt.
- a less rpm oriented engine.
- lose the HST fan system
- reduce the HST whine
- change to a one piece, easy lift hood.
