Hello everyone, First off I would like to thank everyone sharing thier opinions on this site. Your comments and suggestions have been instrumental in swaying me into puchasing a new 425. I would also like to give special thanks to Duane for letting me operate his pt 422. Today I sold my 1984 Kubota b7100 that I restored this past winter, and tommorrow (providing the check clears) I will be ordering the upgraded pt 425 with big and small buckets along with the forks.
The question I have is this, if you folks had a chance to do it over again would you get the turfs or the bar tires? I do not plan to mow with this machine but I will be using the loader on finished lawns so damage to them needs to be avoided.
I also have this implement design bouncing around in my head that I am going to take a 30'' diameter by 4' stainless steel roller, mount it to the quick attach, apply down pressure, and steer with the front wheels off the ground. This will allow me to compact the stone dust the I apply when installing synthetic putting greens. I may even use some kind of vibrotary tool in conjuntion with this implement. Anyway I am a little concerned that the back wheels may leave tread marks with the bars. Thanks everyone
