Delivery Day for the B2601.......

River19 · Oct 29, 2020

Big day finally arrived.

When I got the call the tractor was ready I caught on to the fact they kept saying "Box Blade" and I had ordered the RB1560.......rear blade....well honest mistake they had prepped a BB1260......which I probably would have gotten in the Spring anyways. So.....just keep that on the truck and add the RB.

So 48" commercial blower, FEL, Box blade and Rear Blade.........

Did some quick basic loader work in the rain today then mounted the BB1260 for the first time dealing with a 3PT......I won......leveled it off in the garage out of the rain. Quick hitch comes tomorrow.

Let the journey begin......

Thats a sweet ride, they fixed pretty much all the things I wish my B2620 had.

See you also go the third function, you'll be impressed with a grapple on it.

Thanks. I think they did a nice job on the finer details on the tractor at this point.

I don't have a current use for the 3rd function, but all the advice was to get it installed with the tractor initially in case we have a use for it later so I figured I would go for it.

Grapple might come in handy some day but first I need to figure out a second shed solution for the implements/tractor as my wife would like her SUV back in the garage for winter lol

I went cheap and got a deal on the Northern Tool one which is pretty much the same as the Harbor Freight one.

As I knew going into it I had to take a grinder to the top hook to open it up enough to play nice with my LP implements but that took a whopping 7, maybe 8 mins including finding an extension cord.

It works.....I'm not sure you could convince me the QH15 is $300 better.....
