Friends, I was using my BX2200 with bucket to clear away some snow today. As I was about an hour and a half into it, I raised the bucket to its full height, but was unable to lower the arms. The bucket still moves up and down. And there is still hydrolic pressure, or at least some, to the arms...

Friends, I need an airator/spreader for fertilizer or lime or grass seed. Can you all recommend a good rig to pull behind my 2200. Thanks.

Friends, Had an early summer idiosy experience. Mounted up the mower deck to my 2200 and gave the keys to my wife. She comes running in a few minutes later saying that there is something wrong - stuff coming out of the tractor. I go out and immediately see that the PTO was disconnected. I fire...

Friends, my BX2200 was delivered yesterday, with FEL. 60"mmm and Land Pride brush hog. It won't be so long before the snow starts to fly (in Maine, any time after July 4th is fair game). I'd like to get my rig under cover before that happens. Short of constructing a small barn for it, are there...

Friends, My dealer is installing a FEL. Should I have him weld some sort of hook eye or other fittings that I could use to hook up chain for hauling or lifting. What is the best place on the bucket to do this? Thanks

Friends, I am completing my purchase of a used BX2200 from a dealer in Florida. I am not picking it up, but am having it shipped to me in Maine. The dealer calls me and says that he needs to charge sales tax despite the fact that I am not personally taking delivery of it in the state of sale. I...

Friends, Can anyone suggest a trucking company that can get my BX2200 from Florida to Maine? Regular freight shippers will not let you drive it on or off the truck.They require it to be crated or palletized, which apparently is not possible according to the guy I am buying it from. What about an...

Friends, My wife says "we need a new lawn mower." First I pinch myself and then get to it. About 15 years ago I bought a nice Honda rider for about $2300. But the last five years, doing 1.5 to 2 acres has buried it. I began looking at the Kubota T rigs which go for appx $5k with a bagger. Then I...
