My 4 year old 4310 has 2 simple problems. The throttle and 3 pt slide and will not hold on their own. When new both stayed put after placement. Anyone know how hard and what is involved with tinkering. Any site of adjustment seems to be buried behind cowling, etc. Thanks.

Is there a way to get the rear PTO to operate my new PTO chipper without me being in the seat? Thanks in advance.

I know there have been several threads about chippers but I still need a few opinions. I am pretty much settled on the KPX chipper over DR, Woods, Wallenstein... I am trying to decide whether the 6" or 8" model would work best with my 4310. I am clearly of the bigger is better school as my...

The second best day with your JD is when you finally pay off the 0% financing. Done. Now what do I NEED to buy???

Anyone have any experience with a snow blower on this model? I have front hydraulics already for a 4in1 bucket. JD website has very limited information. Thanks.

My 3 pt control lever is constantly sliding down. Seems like the friction has been lost. Haven't had time to dive into it. Any experience/guidance? Thanks.

Despite recent "problem" posts, my 4310 is performing like a champ. Now has 186 hours used to tame and reshape the 3 1/2 acres we are turning in to our home. The house is nearing completion and the yard is taking shape. I h ave moved countless loads of material, LARGE boulders, and mowed...

Well, I had to twist the arm of the 23 year old daughter in graduate school to believe there really was something called a bucket level indicator. After nearly 3 months of saying that is what I wanted for Christmas, you'll never believe it, she did the right thing and got ol' Dad taken care of...

Anyone have any experience with this type of attachment? Plastic or metal drum? I have a JD 4310 with rear SCV. Does one hose attach to the dump cylinder or how does it actually work?

Has anyone else had trouble maintaining a smooth speed when operating the hydro on less than smooth ground? I was mowing today and decided to go "against the grain". I mowed across my usual path and was rather surprised to find the ride rather rough. Given the record rain falls here in KC...

Can anyone suggest a source for these blades?

I am still struggling with my cruise control. What is the best way to stop the cruise control without having the tractor come to an abrupt halt. Usually I am using the cruise at moderate speeds while mowing and come upon an obstacle requiring me to take full control of the speed/direction...

I have had a lot of difficulty from day 1 with the installation of my 430 loader. The plate does not rotate up to lock the loader in place very well at all. I lift the front tires as per instructions. When I pull on the lever to lock the plate it makes a solid metal on metal sound. I have...

I am building a new garage. Does anyone know the height of the 4310 with the folding ROPS in the up position? I am some distance from the tractor or I would just measure it. Thanks in advance. Want to be able to get the baby in the garage without folding or hitting the garage (done that)...
