@Cycledude bought it back in December, haven’t needed it since. We did get 2” late last month but I used the plow on my truck. 3/4 of the way through plowing I blew a fuse in the Fisher headgear so I got the tractor out of the shop. Side by side comparison the Meteor did just as nice job as...

Mark thanks for the reply. Probably take me half an hour to take off my loader, but I’ve never done it. Don’t know if I could give up my loader’s 3500# at max height or the versatility of running a blower and a bucket or mower and a grapple.

@MarkFromWA how long does it take to R&R the Bonatti loader? My dealer is saying it can lift 1500-2000# (not 700). I like being able to work both ends of the tractor but the dealer says AC won’t warrantee the tractor if I put on a front loader.

@AssyrianKing hope it works out for you. The website is gone. I had found the tractor on Facebook marketplace, only way I’ll buy anything on fb is to go see it.

Looking at tractors at Westland Equipment In West Point, Nebraska. Has anyone bought from them before? Would you recommend them?

This is how the Twose did it.

Nice job! If overheating is a real problem you might try getting some hydraulic line bent up to replace as many fittings and elbows as you can. I don’t think there’s an elbow on this Twose.

I‘ve been running a Toro 18” electric for 12 years now. Doesn’t throw snow like the 74” blower on the back of the tractor but it’s great for the deck and walkways.

I’m planning on setting up a hydraulic winch on at least the rear of my tractor. Whenever I’ve gotten stuck it’s always been “what was I thinking?” and have been pulled out to the rear.

Looking to make some guarding for my tractor. Have a boom mower and a 3 pt winch that may want to kill me. Looking for a heavy 1 X 1 mesh. Not interested in expanded steel. Anyone have a source? Thanks

“an old beat up 5' bush hog”. I bet it’s pretty loose and you’re going through a resonant frequency as it spins up. As someone also suggested you could be extending a blade that was folded. If it spins smoothly at speed your fine.

It’s hard to beat a tractor with a bucket on the front and snow blower on the back for some snow removal situations. Get rid of your tractor and snow blower for a new tractor with an cab and an inverted blower.

It’s a COT’s filter (commercial off the shelf). UCC was bought by Parker and I think they obsoleted the filter. Make doesn’t matter, but it was Twose.

1998 mower. UCC return hydraulic filter. 2-5/8” diameter at the top. 2-1/8” diameter body. 9” tall. It’s a one piece cartridge. Anyone have a part number or possible source? I haven’t been able to come up with anything. Thanks for the help.

Did a search for Twose and found this thread. PM Lou the OP and asked him some questions. Ended up buying a 1998 Twose 395, 13’ reach 39” flail Hedge Trimmer. Too new to me to be a pain to attach but I suppose it will get old. My tractor is twice the size of the minimum so it handles it well.
