I can't find my manual for my mower deck. Figuring someone here can give me the answer. How do I pin the mower deck in the up position so that I can use a rake on the three point hitch without removing the mower deck? Thanks

I'm going to try to get some ground cover established along the bare slopes on my property. I'm trying to figure out how to water the plants until they get established. The areas are too far from the house to run a hose. Would one of the sprayer set ups do a good job watering? I assume...

Does anyone have a recomendation for a sprayer for the back of my Polaris Ranger? I have a remote part of my proprety I want to seed this spring, and I'll need to water regularly. I think I want something with a 12volt pump and plenty of capacity, at least 30 gallons. Any suggestions? I...

The Badlands and the Gondo look too similar to be coincidence. Badlands gondo Does anyone know if one is a "rebadged" version of the other? I know the Pug product has been available for at least 6 years, so I assume it is the original. I also read a post somewhere that Pug is presently shut...

I hate to admit when I was wrong and you guys are right, but you were right. So far this year I've used my expensive front mounted snowblower for exactly 22 minutes. I've used the relatively inexpensive Bushhog 60" rear blade almost exclusively. I know it will change when the heavy snow...

Does anyone know if the 2781 (50") and 2782 (60") snowblowers are interchangeable? They both connect to the newer style universal subframe (Quick Hitch Subframe System B2761) that can also support a front blade or sweeper. I want the 60" unit. My dealer says I can only attach the 50" unit to...

Any of you have thoughts on how the various compact TLB packages would do on hills? I'm referring to the Kubota BX23, Massey 2350 type tractors. I should just buy a powertrac, but I have a hard time abandoning local dealer support. I'm looking for a machine mostly for loader and grading...

Does anyone own the Power-trac snowblower? If so, how does it work in wet heavy snow?

I remember a couple of you went to Tazewell looking at the 1430 and ended up purchasing a 1845. I'm in a similar dilemma. What were your reasons for choosing the 1845 over the 1430? As I see it, if I choose the single wheel version of the 1845 it lays out as follows: 1845 has: 15 more...

Anyone seen a Gehl Advantage at work? Gehl Advantage Brochure It looks comparable to a Power-trac, but with a telescopic loader arm.

I posted this on the general buying/selling forum, but got little response. Thought I would try it here. <font color="blue"> I need some input. I've been looking at tractors for about a year. We have 13 acres of hills and trees surrounding our house. We have a 400 foot level driveway and an...

I need some input. I've been looking at tractors for about a year. We have 13 acres of hills and trees surrounding our house. We have a 400 foot level driveway and an old dirt road leading to the recreational portion of our property. The road goes down a hill that covers about 130 feet of...

One of my friends bought a 2001 Deere 4200 TLB a little over a year ago. He found it in NC listed in one of the online classified (trader) sites. They struck a deal, he wired the money and had the tractor shipped here to NY. It was what was promised and everyone was happy . . . UNTIL HE GOT...

Background: We own 13 acres of hilly land on the shore of an upstate NY lake. The house is 130 feet above the water. We access the dock and waterfront area via an old dirt trail 6-10 feet wide. We’re not allowed to run “motor vehicles” (road going vehicles) up and down the trail, but “ATV”...
