Looking for a little advice...
I have a 2acre property with a 1 acre pond. I have been looking for a used 422 /425 to do some landscape projects such as a little regrading, tree planting, moving landscape boulders etc..and figured a machine like the pt would be perfect. Since I haven't found a used one, (please advise if someone knows of a decent one for sale). I may have to bite the bullet and buy a new one knowing it will not get the use that it deserves. I do not believe that in my limited use I would need anything more than a 422 with a few attachments such as stump grinder, minihoe (for tree planting) and a bucket . First question is advice on buckets ; thoughts on a 4 in one? I would like the occasional use as a grapple for brach pick up etc... But do no know if I can grade with it. Are ther teeth available with it? would also think a lightweight bucket would be useful for mulch, but perhaps the 4 in one would be ok as well for this.
Second question is if there are ROPS available for the 422?
Any advice is greatly appreciated
Thanks for the help.
