Don't know if it's been posted before but someone just showed me this video of a homemade welding table and I thought it was cool. http://youtu.be/_OnF6_V28DM

Here you go. This is on my DK 40. In my opinion bucket level indicator is very useful. I use it all the time. When rod is even with the top of the tube then the bucket is level. I'm sure that you could find or fabricate clamps to hold the rod and tube brackets to the hydraulic cylinder if...

I know from previous threads that a number of people have been using flax seed or flax oil in their diet to maintain their health. I recently discovered hemp seed and have begun using it in my diet. I'm fascinated by the nutritional and other useful properties of hemp. I always knew that it...

I have two control valves on my Kioti DK 40 that right now are controlling cylinders for the snowblower chute rotate and deflector functions. The one that controls the deflector has a shorter handle and a detent which is quite aggravating when trying to feather the position of the cylinder...

Here are a few pix of some of the cleanup we did after the "Blizzard of 2013" :laughing: The blower got a real workout and worked like a champ.

I've got a DK40 with less than 300 hrs. Big snow is coming and this tractor runs the blower and generator. It cranks but won't start. Not even a sputter and I'm getting a little panic'd. Panel lights come on and glow plug indicator comes on and goes off normally. I think I've noticed in the...

I'm with the others and think it's a coyote. I looked up pictures of red fox and gray fox and it doesn't look like either of them. Red fox Grey Fox

Lazy dogs. St Francis Terriers. All rescues.

Subject is a LT 2180 lawn tractor. While mowing along yesterday, the engine suddenly stopped. Turned off the mower PTO, pressed on the brake and tried to restart but nothing. It won't crank, nothing. The only thing that I can think of that will stop the engine while it is running and mowing...

I've got a JD 1032 walk behind snowblower that I'm trying to recondition before winter. Need to replace the auger and impeller bushings. Got all of those out real easy. I've got one bad wheel axle bushing that needs to be replaced. Problem is that I can't see how the axle comes apart to get...

Here is an interesting item I ran across on youtube called Robo the rock picker. YouTube - ‪Robo the Rock Picker‬‏ Here is a link to one for sale on an auction site. It has a bunch of photos that give a pretty good idea of how its constructed. 2011 ROBO MFG 700 Other Equipment -...

Anybody have any info on prices for these units? Land Pride HRS30 Hydraulic Reservoir System

50 degrees F outside today. Still lots of snow out in the back where the wife keeps her horse trailer. Perfect weather to do a little snowblowing with the new machine :) Sweatshirt and a ball cap. Wouldn't it be nice if after every snowstorm it would warm up so that you could go out and do the...

I recently aquired a new B74 Rad/Bervac Blizzard snowblower. Overall I think it is an awesome machine. The only thing that disappoints me is that the manual chute rotator can not seem to be adjusted in any way to make it reachable (at least not very conveniently) from the tractor seat. I've...

A front quick tach loader mount snowblower that is run off a PTO driven pump using the tractors hydraulic oil supply (no rear PTO reservoir). Unique feature is the coaxial auger and impeller. Anyone ever hear of them? Anybody have one of them? Sheyenne Tooling & Manufacturing

I know that most folks go for hydraulics or electric to make their chute rotator (and deflectors) more convenient to use from the seat. I was wondering if anyone has used flex shafts (something like this one) Amazon.com: Eazypower 30167 40-Inch Flexible Drill Extension with 1/4-Inch Keyed...

I just wanted to relay an experience that happened today when I went to use the tractor to move some snow. The tractor lives in a tent garage and it was pretty cold out (was in teens overnight). It has some snow that blew in from the high winds and the degraded front flap door on the tent...

I noticed that Northern Tool is now selling 3 point snowblowers from a company called Braber. They look to be a pretty basic, no frills machine. Anybody ever hear of them? They look to be offered cheaper than something like a Farm King blower. Braber 3-Pt. Snow Thrower — 72in.W Intake...

I bought a used Befco T50 (72 inch width) tiller from a fellow TBN member off Craigslist. It has a few dings and dangs but it seems to be a pretty well contructed machine. Brought it home and greased all the bearings and chain drive, gearbox oil. Had to add longer hitch pins to adapt to my...

I'm hoping that it's just me, but figured I'd ask if anyone with a Kioti DK 40 or 45 feels unusually top heavy and prone to rollover? I did have a old larger tire utility/farm type tractor years ago, but most of my more recent tractoring has been on smaller, lower center of gravity tractors and...

I usually have 1 to 3 containers of diesel fuel purchased from the gas station for fueling the tractors. I recently purchased a hand fuel pump and hose from tractor supply to install on my heating oil tank. I have a PTO generator and figured that at least I would have a couple hundred gallons...

I am a new owner of a DK 40SE. There is an unused/unconnected electrical connector at the left rear of the tractor. Can someone tell me what this connector is used for?

Just about every fall I watch leaves being processed (raked, blown, vacuumed, etc). Around here in CT some of the collection is done at a town level or by landscape companies with big truck mounted vacuums. While mulching the leaves is good, I thought that with the price of heating oil, propane...

Attached is a pic of the Mrs giving the new power riding wheelbarrow a first check after delivery. DK40SE HST and loader. Sorry for the lousy cell phone snapshot.

I've been shopping different tractors recently. I'm interested in the Kioti DK45SE. Haven't had a chance to drive over to the nearest dealer to look yet. Can anybody tell me if Kioti offers skid steer quick attach on the loader?

Thought you PT'ers might want to check out the modified PT stump grinder that I mated up to my Magnatrac backhoe. Pix are posted in the "build it" forum under subject "Stump Grinder". The grinder uses the hyd motor and cutter wheel from a PT 425 stump grinder. The Magnatrac has similar...

Here's some pix of a stump grinder that I put together for my Magnatrac. I bought the hydraulic motor and cutter wheel from Power Trac (one sized for the PT 425). I made up the bracket to fit on my backhoe in place of the bucket (used 5 inch channel, 3x3 and 2x2 angle). Its gonna take some...

Here are a few pics of my most recent project with "Maggie". John in CT

Thinking about adapting a PT stump grinder attachment for use on my Magnatrac. Would appreciate any and all info (photos would be especially helpful) about the PT stump grinder... how it attaches, how it is powered, how it is maneuvered, how it performs, etc. I'm guessing that it is powered...

Here's a few pix of my new toy... a Struck Magnatrac 6000 diesel. Got only about 15 hours on her so far but have been pleased with it. So far, I've just been clearing brush in the back yard and digging out stumps and rocks to get practice. Boy, do I really enjoy ripping out and running over...

I am interested in buying one of the new Struck Magnatrac Model 6000 tractors with the diesel engine. I would like to talk with someone who owns one to get your opinion of it. Thanks!
