    TPH String Trimmer Caddy

    I have been looking for something like this to purchase but found nothing. So I made my own. It works and I'll use it. But it looks hokey. Does anyone know of any vendors selling something like this?

    3320 1,000 hour review

    My 3320 recently passed 1,000 hours (and 10 years) of service. This was my first John Deere product and the experience has been good. I really am a big fan of this tractor, and by extension JD as a whole. I did not come to this opinion overnight. Perhaps some background is in order. Day one...

    Snow  Lots of snow to move

    Today it's 19 degrees with 35 MPH winds. The snow is drifting to about 2'. I love it!! You guys with cabs don't know what you are missing. In a world of heated and air-conditioned everything, it just feels good to bundle up and do a little battle with the elements. The sting of the wind...

    3320 200 Hour Review

    I have owned this tractor, 72 MMM, 300 CX Loader and angle plow for just over a year. The tractor has 200 hours on it, the honeymoon is over. I think at this point I can probably provide a somewhat useful review. Background: Here's what I bought on 8/18/07: 3320 Hydro, Turf Tires 300 CX W/...

    Ready for Winter

    They dropped off my slightly used Buhler 60" rear blower today. It seems to be a good fit for my 3320. I am hoping that the front angle blade will handle most of the snow falls we get here in southern Michigan. The blower should handle the rest. KB

    Oil & Fuel  3320 Fuel Usage

    I was pleasantly surprised to see that I used 16.5 gallons in 28.8 hours of use. Mostly finish mowing with some tilling and loader work. That is .57 gallons per hour. At first I thought the hour meter must be off. So I checked it against my watch. Nope. It's right on the money. Is 1/2...

    72 7-Iron MMM Removal Aid

    The most cumbersome part of removing this mower deck, in my opinion, is lowering the front anti-scalp wheels. In order to do this, you have to put the two spacers that are above the carrier under it. In order to do that, the wheels have to be removed completely from the carriers. And you...

    3320 Unnecessary 50hr. Service

    The manual says don't worry about the engine oil and filter for 200 hrs. and a heart stopping 400 hrs. for the hydro fluid and filter. But I'm old fashioned. I like the 50 hr. service, dang it. It's comforting, like mom's macaroni and cheese. So I blow my $220.00 on 5 quarts of 15 W40, 8...

    $85.00 Hydro Filter for 3320

    I decided to change the engine oil and filter, and the hydro fluid and filter at 50 hours. It's not really due until 200 and 400 hours respectively. But I figured it would be cheap insurance. Turns out this insurance really is not that cheap. The attached bill shows a total parts cost of...

    3320 - Day One

    I ordered a 3320 on 8/6/07 and was told it would take three weeks to come in. 12 days later, Saturday 8/18/07, I got a call at 8:30 am saying everything was in except the Frontier front angle blade. Would it be OK if they delivered later that morning? Let me think about it and call you back...

    B3030 Floorboard Vibration

    I have driven 3 (new) B3030’s now. One was a cab and the others open. All three had a very annoying thrum in the floor boards. The last one was like a vibro-massage that had my feet tingling after a 3 minute trip around the lot with the tach at 2,000 RPMs. My 3 cyl B7610 was smooth as silk...

    Any 3320's WITHOUT problems?

    After selling my rock solid 325 hr. Kubota B7610 (24 HP) and searching for a 30+ HP replacement, I have decided that the 3320 is my favorite, hands down. I absolutely love this tractor. I even worked out a decent deal with 2 local dealers. I just have one hesitation- from reading this board...
