I still have the JD 3320R. It's a low HP tractor for it's frame and the T474 is a high HP tractor for it's frame.

I’ve had my T474 a couple of months now. It is used for logging. I don’t know if there is anything more demanding on a tractor - moving heavy logs, pulling stumps, running a chipper. I’ve learned I need to be easier with it than I was on the John Deere. I’ve already bent the loader mounts, but...

Yes on the 20 series but I in the woods 80% of the time and I want the smaller size. Georgia Land Equipment got a tractor sale today. They will deliver it to me next week.

Wow! I called Georgia Land Equipment because they are 2.5 hours away and if I had to I could make that drive or even buy the tractor from them. They gave me the price over the phone and said it would be at my door in 2 days. For everyone that replied - thank you.

I was very close to buying a T474 to replace my John Deere 3320R but I did an anonymous call to check on getting parts. I am going into day 3 and they can't even give me a price on the part much less availability. I asked what was going on and they said they have to call in each request to...

Problem solved. I had to calibrate the sensor under the pedal.

About 3 MPH off in "B". I have not tested "C".

My 3320 ehydro has been loosing MPH. The manual says in range "A" at 2600 RPM I should run at 3.8 MPH. I have tested range "A" and "B", both fail the test unless I run in reverse. The best I got in range "A" was 2.6 MPH. It is due for a fluid change but it is not over due or low and the air...

I occasionally will use a logging chain connected to the back of my 3320 to pull a stump up. Has anyone had any transmission problems related to this? Sometimes a little momentum is required.

My 3320 HST has an err 12 code. No forward or reverse. The speed sensor was unplugged but had been for a long time. I think what took me out was the throttle sensor plug got knocked off. When I found that I plugged it back in but still no go. My thoughts are that the Drive Controller got...

I have a separate lever to open and close my grapple. Is there a standard for which way I should hook it up. If I push the lever down should it open or close?

I felt a slight jerk from my 3320s transmission. I stopped and checked everything, saw no problems and continued on. I was in 4wd and tried to go over a 4" log later on but the front tires would not move and there was a popping sound like gears not engaging. When selecting 2WD the jerk was gone...

I have a John Deere 3320 that I would like to put a Root Grapple on. I like the design of the Faver products. The problem is they are heavy and may be over kill for my tractor but I am hard on my equipment. The one that I am looking at is 619 lbs. Is that too much my my loader? I an not sure how...

Heavy duty Howse Bush Hog broke a blade at the bolt hole. How common is this? I even have a clutch on the shaft. I was cutting some saplings in the woods and had run over some Poplar limbs about 2" in diameter when it came off.

This was a quick project that has really been helpful for me getting logs out of the woods. There is a limit to what the tractor will lift. It works well for pine and light weight logs or small diameter heavy logs. I can get into very tight places with this setup and not tear up the ground and...
