    thinking of trading my 2011 ex2900 on a ??

    I really have no good reason to trade. I wish my ex2900 had more foot room and room for getting on and off. This is really only an issue in the winter when bundled up. Also, I had been using a slightly oversized blower for a couple years and now the rear hydraulics creep slightly when loaded...

    3 point hydraulic drifting on yanmar ex2900

    I have a finish mower on the back right now and I've noticed that every minute or 2 the hydraulics kick on and raise it. It's drifting down. This is during idle and I've never had this problem before. If I shut the tractor down I can hear the mower creak as it slowlyyyy sinks. The last 2 years...

    shear bolt question(s)...place your bet

    I have a 721CTS http://www.loftness.com/Literature/filezone/index.php?path=./SnowLogix/Obsolete%20Snowblowers The pto shaft calls for (2) 5/16"x1" grade 5 bolts. The small sprocket on the blower's chain drive calls for (2) 3/8"x1" grade 2 bolts. The large sprocket calls for (2) 7/16"x1.5"...

    Who here is glad they went to a snowblower this year??

    I sure am. Ditched the plow and and am having a blast hammering on all the snow we've gotten. Ordered edge tamers for the bucket this weekend too. We get drifted in like crazy so the blower saves the day!

    Lugging her down

    How much do u guys let your tractors lug down when running the blower? Ours is hst with pto speed at 2600. I usually run 2500. It will go down to 2300 or 2200 rather often. I never let it go below 2000. Is this typical for many?

    Diesel knock and overall sound

    Why are some brands of engines louder in terms of knock than others? It seems like I've seen pretty drastic differences at times.

    NX4510 vs XR4046

    Both with cab and hst. What say you?

    Looked at a XR4046 yesterday....

    I think this tractor is soooo sweet. Can't get it out of my head. Can't justify it though because our yanmar does the job well. Love the blue!

    Help me with wire connectors please

    How far does the wire go into the metal connectors? Should I strip more of the wire covering? Where do I crimp and where do I not? I am sort of an idiot! Trying to hook up LED lights to my harness. Thx

    LED light questions.

    So I ordered a couple 27 watt lights and the opt7 dual harness and received them today. I want to mount them on the rops where the halves hinge together. I want to run the bolt that holds the hinge assembly through the light bracket. It will require me to get a bracket with a larger hole as well...

    Snow Equipment Owning/Operating  How to build and attach wooden snow pusher to loader??

    I searched but couldn't find what I'm looking for. It's either this or edge tamers!! I'm just looking for something simple on the bucket for light snow/manicured surface since I've finally got a blower on the rear for the heavy stuff

    Hydraulic oil mix question

    I have a yanmar ex2900 that currently has wolfs head ht in it from the dealer. The dipstick is telling me to add fluid. I can't find it by the quart anywhere. Is it ok to add a quart or so of something else like the traveller premium fluid or do I really need to buy another 5gal pail of the ht...
