Well, Dang!, now you have got it all dirty.!

 

[Gittyup]

nice. Be careful on those hills. You're going to get a lot done now!

So far I have only went up and down the hill. Front yard I went sideways and it felt fine, but I am wearing my seatbelt with ROPS up. I did have a pucker factor the yesterday, I was moving some dirt with FEL and hit a root, when I was lifting the FEL up a bit and rolling back to fill bucket it caught that root and lifted the left rear tire off the ground!!!:shocked:

Pushed FEL in float mode and all was well once the wheel sat back down. Backed up a bit and just rolled bucket back and continued doing what I was. Lesson learned! Machine is strong enough to lift it's self under the right conditions!

Yeah. Watch the loader on uneven ground or tractor will turn into a teeter-toter..... or worse: flip over on you. Keep the loader square to the hills when dumping, and as low as possible at all times.

Never allow either rear wheel to leave the ground or you could lay the tractor over on its side. There are several possible outcomes that would be bad for you and the machine (including death).

1) Is it an optical illusion, or is there 2 studs missing from the left rear wheel? see photos in post #40
2) you mention stumping. Try a single leg ripper. You can break the side roots off more easily than with a bucket, and move far less dirt. Also the ripper can be used to split stumps into smaller more manageable pieces.

Be real careful if trying to pull things like logs with a 3PH instead of the drawbar. The tractor can also flip over backwards, especially if going uphill and dragging something that gets hung up. The big rear wheels will change center of gravity and the power of the tractor will pull you over backwards. Technically, the lowest COG point, (at the drawbar), is the only place the tractor is designed to draw from.
Like when the rear tire hops up, you do not want to be experiencing a rear rollover.

3PH is good for towing things like a box blade, brush hog etc., but the 3PH can and does present some issues, especially when you mix newbie with snow, dragging logs, roots, etc.

I too have the Big Foot brand hoe stabilizer pads on my KB-2485 hoe. I wouldn't be without them. they're worth the extra $ in my opinion. They were already on my hoe from my dealer's prep.

BTW, Amvcane,

Can I get a shout out on a part #, UPC code link, for the pads? I can't seem to locate them online?:confused2:

Thanks,

CM

Enjoy the machine, steady and slow as she goes...:thumbsup:

It is an illusion. They are there, those are the nuts and the rest are bolts. Odd, never seen a set up like that where it is a mix of two nuts on studs and the rest are bolts.

I have been using the draw bar, kind of a pain to put on and take off. But I agree lower it better!

One thing I have noticed and I am glad about. It loses traction before it loses power.

I have working really slow and taking my time. Last thing I need is a flip or roll over not to mention the injury or death that could happen from me being in a hurry.

All of the compact tractors I have owned have been set up this way.. 3 different brands.
