    Finally Bought a Stihl

    Picked up a MS251 this last week and used it all day today. Can't believe I waited so long to buy a quality saw. I used to hate trimming limbs and cutting firewood with the crappy Poulan I had. This should be the last year I have to buy firewood!

    Any advice on how to fix this?

    Tin horn, French drain, pond,??? I leveled it a bit which has helped keep most of it from the gate posts.

    Posthole Digger  Are augers universal?

    I'm getting ready to drop $100 for new teeth and a fishtail so it got me wondering. Could I put the auger on a new digger if my old digger blew up?

    What to use for gate posts

    Can't make up my mind and it's about to drive me crazy. I'm putting up a 14ft entry gate, tired of "lost" folks driving down my road. Nothing fancy just a steel pipe farm gate. My dilemma is what to use as gate posts. What I'm considering: - 6" treated wood posts - 6" treated wood h braces...

    New 3560 Layout

    Made the mistake of sitting on one of these the other day. eBrochure - L60 If a year ago they'd had the joystick where it is now I might have ended up with one of these. Love the seat too. I didn't look at a new non-Grand but anyone know if they've moved the joystick on those as well?

    Tires  Broken valve stem

    Broke a valve stem on the front tire of my DK40. It looks like it has a nut at the base of the stem but not sure if it screws apart or you cut it from the back side of the rim. I tried a standard racket but it spins on the inside. Didn't want to drag a compressor and impact wrench out to...

    Loader  Bucket Will Not Roll Forward

    The bucket on my DK40 will not roll forward. It will go forward three or four inches but no further. I see the hydraulic hoses flexing but still nothing. I've greased all the zerks thinking one of the joints is frozen up. Was working fine the other day then wasn't today.

    DK40SE HST - Loss of speed after 50 hour service

    After completing the 50 hr service I've noticed a loss of speed. I've topped off hydraulic fluid, checked for leaks, etc. Hydraulic fluid level is about in the middle. Haven't done in loader or PTO work so can't say if there's a loss of power too. Weather will be nice this weekend so I will...

    DK40SE 7 Pin Adapter Kit

    Anyone else installed the kit? I'm wanting to add 12v to the rear and had found a 7 pin to 12v adapter. I bought the kit but it didn't include the mounting bolts so now I'm trying to figure out their size.
