I have the 300CX loader and have noticed lately the joystick "sticks" in the curl up and down functions(full left and full right). It makes for some conscience effort on my part to return it to center when using the loader. Has anyone else had an issue with this? My initial thoughts are...

I decided to shelter my 3320 with the approach of Dennis here in Crestview, FL. Has anyone left one outside during a hurricane? Bob

Manual says GL-5 oil. Is there an equivalent oil I can get at an auto parts store? I'd like to have some on hand in case it is needed. Bob

Just finalized all the details on a 3320 w/300CX loader and MX5 rotary cutter. Delivery set for Saturday morning!! After 6 months of tractor shopping, my wife said it's a Deere or nothing. Oh, hurt me please! I can finally get some work (uh, play time) done!! Thanks to everyone who...

What\'s Up??? Did I miss something? Last night, I downloaded for the last time the 4110 spec sheet. Today, I popped on the site and noticed the following changes to the spec sheet. 5-16 spec sheet -- 5-17 spec sheet HP = 41 --...

What is the largest round hay bale you could safely lift with a 3510/112 loader? My wife wants to know and I don't have a clue! Owners please chime in!! Thanks! Bob

What is the largest round hay bale you could safely lift with a 1533/1525 loader? My wife wants to know and I don't have a clue! Thanks! Bob

It\'s the Final Countdown! First, I would like to thank everyone on this site for their valuable opinions, various expertises, and dealer experiences on compact tractors. My search has been narrowed down to the Massey 1533 and the Mahindra 3510 both with QA loaders. I will be buying either...

I just recieved a fantastic price from a dealer in Central Florida on a CK25HST w/FEL. For you CK25HST owners, what can you say/tell me about the tractor? Thanx!! Bob I'll buy something soon!

I recieved a quote for a 1533 w/FEL for approx 18K out the door. Is this a bit high? I live in the Florida panhandle. I like the 1533 and am wondering why it is about 2K more expensive than the Branson 3510 and Kubota L3400DT. I really like the dealership (20 minutes away from the ranch)...

This is for anyone who has had their clutch replaced. How long does it take to completely replace the clutch on a Branson?? I've asked numerous other brand dealers and am coming up with 4 hours to 12 hours(12x$50 an hour +parts-Kubota dealer in Crestview, FL). I have narrowed down the field...

Okay y'all! I've narrowed down the selection to the 2810HST. What would be the benefits to upgrading to the 3510HST? It is about 2K more with a larger motor. They weigh the same in the brochure, use the same loader and share the same specs throughout. Is the only difference the...

On the Branson 3510, does it have a cutoff switch on the seat to kill the motor in case an operator stands up or is somehow thrown off while in gear? If not, why?? Thanks in advance, Bob

I can't remember..... Does the 10 and 15 series tractors have an auto engine shutoff if the operator suddenly "leaves" the seat while in gear? Thanks! Bob

Well,..... I arrived at the dealer yesterday and there it was, a brand new 2810 Sync! Very nice but was missing...the toolbox! I looked under the left side mat(it's there on the 3510 sync) and found a flat metal deck. I was disappointed! Because of the literature, I had built myself up to that...
