Not sure the best forum to post here, 'attachments', 'customization', 'hydraulics'. Anyway, I want one and want what they mow with it ....incredible! New Mower Cuts 30 Acres/Hour : Triple Tree Aerodrome

Not sure the appropriate forum to post this but here we go, feel free to move it if there is a better spot, but this is one of my projects for this fall and next year. This past weekend, I took some pictures of weeds in hopes of either spraying this fall or a plan for next year. This field was...

I am interested in what or if anyone here has experience with these? Most of the posts here are on the smaller units. I have a DK 55c and am considering moving up if there are some deals next year. Anyone have a feel for the value of or interest in a pre-owned DK 55c with 250 hours?

I'm in the process of trying to re-rig up a spray rig from a variety of pieces. First, I am trying to use old food service 55 gal barrels. The problem is tapping and putting an outlet in the bottom. Anyone have experience with this? A hole cutter will make a nice hole but the issue is how to...

I need some help with some pieces of equipment and whether it is worth working on and resurrecting or attempting to. Here they are. 1 thru 3 - a hay conditioner maybe? 4 - a conveyor for bales I think 5 - a bale tosser Any help appreciated - I may post some other stuff later.

There was lots of junk/garbage left on our property and a big question for me was how to get rid of it. Nearly impossible to handle by hand I decided a grapple was the way to go. I have a 4n1 on my Liebherr but don't find it as easy to move material. Here are some pics.

Anyone seeing any problems in the financing market? I think Kioti uses GE Capital, used to use AGCO (Agricredit).

Since there doesn't seem to be much chat about DK55s here so I thought would start a thread. Likes - Smooth running, AC, Nice controls, very fuel efficient, stable, extremely easy to service(filters, drains, hood design), adjustable 3pt links, dual remotes. Dislikes - running into things(trees...

Anyone know of a source for Locking Fuel Caps for our tractors? I would like to have one to secure my fuel in my tractor.

I'm not sure this is a ripper, but it is missing some prongs/teeth. I am figuring 3 of 9. First question is where can I find these? What exactly is this used for? I am wanting to rake some roots, debri up from a field I am clearing before disking. Thanks for the help.

I've got a 2005 DK55C and pulled it out to check it over and noticed oil all down the left side of the under carriage. I opened the hood and pulled the sided panels and noticed a plastic or hard rubber plug under the alternator just barely in the hole(see picture) with oil all around. Upon...

My dealer got his first DK 90 in on Friday. Did a brief walk around -- a big machine. Anyone priced these yet? He hadn't got his invoice yet but thought $40K+-.

Caught this on one of the news blogs. Motor Authority » Three bidders left for Jaguar and Land Rover

I am interested in putting some trails in on our property and am not sure what is best - I don't want to bisect the property but I also am wary of zig-zagging everywhere. I really just want better access, to keep an eye on things and a nice path to either hike or drive a jeep through.

Howard Brandon in Murray, KY will be selling a lifetimes accumulation of stuff, antique cars of all sorts, but also what appears to me to be an extensive collection of old farm equipment - I don't know what all this stuff is but I've been going through tomorrow's sale stuff and it appears a...

Well, I think I bought a track loader today. This unit is a Liebherr 631. Gross weight 37400, 150HP Mercedes V6, Cab heat only, 4n1 bucket. Talked to Liebherr factory folks and they were helpful and encouraging. The purpose is to reclaim some pasture and maybe clear an area for an airstrip...

I bought a used tiller and it looks like it may be too small for my DK55. It is a Kioti(I think these are new idea) unit - KIOTI KT03-55 If anyone has an interest you can PM me - it is located in Kansas.

I just bought a 6500 - my second Mahindra. If anyone has an interest in these I'd be happy to discuss. I also have Kioti DK55c.

Went by the kioti booth today at the Farm show in Louisville. They had the DK35SE, DK40SE and DK45SE - looks like three new models. Sharp clean tractors. Also on display - DK65S Cab DK45S Cab CK20TLB. May have been a couple of others. They were right next to the Bobcat booth - imagine that.

Hi, I bought a combination generator/welder at an auction yesterday - Honda EW171. Honda EW171 Generator - Honda Industrial Generators After reading several posts I thought this might be a good combination since I don't have power in my barn/shed. Also have quite a few gates and post that...

Well, It's been about a week. Been accumulating stuff in a low part of the barnyard. Ultimately hope to be able to keep everything clear and cut. I thought since we had received over an inch of rain two days earlier it would be an okay time to burn the pile. Started about 10 o'clock and by...

Does anyone make a locking gas cap for the Kiotis? I have DK55 and would like a locking gas cap. Also, I like the lighting when I have the tractor in reverse - more of a flood as opposed to the rear lights that when on are more of a spot. I would prefer the flood type when working after dark...

Anyone had any experience with these. I've got a friend with a D5 and a Hitachi excavator and it looks like this would be a neat machine. http://www.kobelcoamerica.com/products/products_series_detail.asp?Reg=NA&RL=ENNA&NavID=000004724403&line=000004792103...

Changed the oil on the DK55C today and had a hard time finding the oil filler cap. The one shown in the owners manual was down by the injection pump on the rightside of the engine. Ended up finding it on top of the Valve cover under the compressor - a tedious spot at best. Anyone have a tip on...

First, I am a car dealer - used only now, but previously a new car dealer so have a fair understanding of some of the challenges any dealer faces. The question is whether dealers find consignment sales beneficial? In the mid-eighties another dealer in our 20 group recommended taking vehicles...

I am interested in getting a root grapple and not sure of the benefits of the different types. Seems there is the Scoop Type and the Flat or Push Type It seems with the flat front type you won't have the same leverage stress on the loader elbows. Anyone else evaluating or using either...

Looks like I'm joining the pack. I've made a deal on a DK55C. I currently have a Mahindra 6000 4WD FEL which I am very happy with, but will be selling. The opportunity and the fact that the closest dealer to our property is a Massey / Kioti dealer were factors. I am still doing some field...

Saw a Mahindra Ad on SpeedTV pre-race show today. First time I've seen one looked pretty good. Hope they can buy enough so that folks will begin to recognize them. Of course, I haven't seen any tractor ads from any brand.

Anyone have experience with this unit. I'm looking at a tractor that has one on it. Thanks

I guess the question is whether it makes sense to upgrade? I've been very happy with my 6000 4WD loader. Bought used and have maybe 50 or 60 additional hours. Been cleaning up brush and clearing some areas seems to do fine. Have a possible opportunity to go to a 7520, but it looks like it'll be...

I may have the opportunity to upgrade to a 7520 and am considering selling my 6000 FWDL. I have been very happy with this tractor. In fact it is so strong I am selling my small dozer as well. It probably needs to bring between 16500 and 17000 to make my other deal work. This should be an good...

Greetings, I have 60s vintage seed cleaner and may sell it. Where is the best place to determine a value - I had some inquiries. It is a VERY interesting piece of machinery. Thanks

What\'s This? I've got several curious pieces of eqmt. What is it used for and whether it is worth salvaging or fixing up. Thought I would start this string and post some pictures. Thanks to all for your help.

I ran across an accessory light(JD) and decided to mount it on my right rear fender to have lights on both sides. There appear to be numerous nuts welded to the inside of the fender in various places. I have a 6000. Does anyone know what all these are for? I like the JD fixture more than the...

I have been looking at what unit to buy. Have about settled on Kodiak brand. I have 6000 4wd and don't know whether I should go with a 6 ft or 7ft HD unit. I have some cleaning up to do but am also wary of it being too wide. My tractor is 77 inches wide and was thinking I need something at...

I am looking at some small track dozers. I want to try and clean up some overgrown(20-25 years) fields and other areas. Would like folks experiences, if any with these models. All have six way blades ex forest service so are fairly low time. Thanks

I am trying to find Metal Roof material from one of my buildings. Haven't had luck with local folks. This appears to be a stamped aluminum material. Thanks

Greetings, I am looking at some trucks and not sure what size and what I need to be looking at. These are mid-80s GMC 7000s with either rollback or dovetail beds. 8.2L Detroit diesel engines. Mileage seems moderate. Not sure what they were used for most likely to haul light dozer or equipment...

I did a search for tires and didn't find a discussion on the cost of tires and also if you can convert to R4s from R1s or the other way around. Here are the tire sizes on the tractor I am looking at. 12.5/80x18 / 19.5Lx24 industrial 11.2x24 / 16.9x28 Ag I'm thinking those are different size...

Just noticed Massey has updated their website - Looks great at first blush http://www.masseyferguson.com/AGCO/MF/NA/Home.htm

I am interested in one of these. Looking at the 1533, 1540 or the 4 cylinder 1548/1552. Would be interested in experiences with the 1400 series as well. Primarily want to keep edges of fields clean, cleaning out an over grown orchard, moving junk and scrap, maintaining fence rows. Want...

I have become so enamoured with the tractor and implement market, I have been thinking of opening a dealership. I would be interested in talking or networking with active dealers. Please e-mail me privately if you would be interested in sharing your experiences. Thanks, rvaitor...

Greetings, A AGCO / Massey Dealer Show coming up in Nashvile - lots of interesting tractors. Here's a link to some snapshots. AGCO Show

Anyone know what new models are coming out. I talked to a dealer today who says he has a 70HP Cab coming in(31K with a loader). Says it looks like a large 4510. Said there was another new large tractor. Nothing on www.mahindrausa.com yet

Greetings All. We have an Eqmt Shedd with this in it. I have no idea what it is, but it sure looks interesting. Can anyone identify it for me? Thanks

Greetings, I am now looking at the 40-50HP Mahindras. I am curious what folks think of the different models, specifically the 4500 vs 4110. The dealer I am talking to has a used 4500 and a 4110 coming in. Attached is the PDF comparing the three 4WD 40-50 HP machines. Thanks in advance

Saw a used Mahindra the other day and am struggling with the value. 4WD, FEL, a little damage on the front grille headlights, tires worn on the back sides(dealer says this is from running on pavement), was used primarily for contract grass cutting, approx 200hrs. 2002(?) model. With new...
