TripleR,
Great looking tractor! Do you like the top and tilt you have on your tractor? Right now I only have one remote which I use for power angling of a power rake and anticipated hydraulic scarifiers on the new box. The Landpride box you have looks heavy also, how much do you think it weighs? I had the Gannon from years past when we did alot of yard grading and it was almost too much for the 2WD Ford 2810 that it was on.

Thanks!

I really like the top and tilt especially as I get older my tractor seems to get further and further from the ground.:laughing:

Mine weighs 1119 pounds and use it on our 5740 and M8540, if I could afford it, I would get a bigger one for the M. For that I would get one from Gannon.

I use topntilt with my box blade and it makes everything easier to do. Would not wan't to be without it now. My box blade is an 84" model at 1260 lbs. about all the 4520 wan'ts to handle. I also have a small Cammond box blade for my garden tractor and it is well made, I suspect you will like this brand.

I tried the auto throttle today with the rpm s set at 2000 like you suggested. I really liked it when doing loader work. Great advice. Thanks!

Do any of you have a 805 loader? If so does it seem to have weak break out lift and curl? I have a kubota 72" 4 n 1 bucket on mine which is plenty of bucket for the machine. Other that it's a great machine.

I am glad to see some other folks like heavy fancy box blades and tricked out tractors, great looking rigs!

Thanks and be safe!
