Greetings, was hoping to see if anyone has information on what service/parts manual required for a 2023 Branson 3515H. Are there separate manuals for the TYM 3515H? I'm guessing Kukje A1700N4/TYM T1700N4 engine manuals are included with Branson/TYM 3515 manuals? I seen a few other posts that...

That is also a good point about wheel bearings. Thank you. Not all OEM parts (i.e. bearings) are made for use/abuse. Maybe consider looking for quality bearings? I buy bearings from a company who deals with only bearings.

Max height lift specs are analogous to some "minimum" lift capacity based on the reasoning/assumption that more height = less lift variable relationship. But its more realistically (but still unrealistic), how far your loader is away out front that undermines lift capacity. Farther away = less...

Thank you, I do have training in mechanical engineering but this spreadsheet was mainly formulated using data from specsheets I retrieved from various companies, and tractordata.com (i.e. using statistics). However accurate/innacurate those specs may be. You provide many accurate points, maybe...

Very good idea, thanks for this. Would be interesting to compare the rankings at 60" vs at max height.

That would be very interesting to see. To add, you could take those tractor-loader dimensions and calculate the moment (tendency to rotate) that causes the tractor to tip over (on level ground).

Thats very true to point out, however its hard finding specs consistently at 60", either at pins or certain distance away from bucket; across each brand/model. Especially with brands using metric/imperial measurements it gets extra complicated.

Thanks, in the future I will link a Youtube video I saw of someone else doing a similar chart (if I can find it again).

Thanks, Im up in Ontario south of Algonquin. Right before the shield begins to develop. I think the terrain is similar to Adirondack Mountains in northeast NY. Beautiful land! Thank you for all your advice.

Will definetely find others ways around for safer travel if needed/possible. The forest has many lowland creeks/ponds/swamps that require basically Argo XTV capabilities to travel through unless high ground is taken, where granite bedrock sheets mountains protrude occasionally.

May I ask what type of chain these are called? Forestry chains? I don't plan on being rough with my tractor, just worried about suddenly slipping on some uneven smooth granite bedrock hilly areas (that I cant avoid) while carefully pulling a couple small sawmill logs. What are some things to...

Thanks again for your advice!

Thanks for sharing this, anything you would recommend for solid granite rock, or bare tires is best bet?

Greetings, Im looking to get a couple pairs of tire chains (front and rear) on my Branson 3515H, mainly for forest logging and snow clearing. Traction on ice and hard bedrock is needed, I dont mind heavier chains to add lower centre of gravity. Anybody can recommend Trygg tire chains? Im...

Hey, thanks for your response. If you don't mind me asking what brand/model machine you are operating? Im only interested in skidding 1-3 logs at a time, 25 inches max, 10-15 ft long (up to 2500-3000 lbs); but could not find information on attachments available (only some videos) for these...
