I dont understand why someone would buy a tractor and not use it.

My thoughts are to take the muffler off and take it to a custom muffler shop see what they can do.

I am going to keep the GC2410 instead of trading it in for a new 1700. What would I have to do to upgrade her bucket to a QA? Thats the only thing the new models have that I wish mine had.

Did you know the first vehicle to reach the South Pole was a 28 hp Furguson tractor. Quite the history:)

Been using Ryobi and Milwaukee batteried tools now for over a decade. Had 3 m12 batteries die, no m18 yet. Had onky one 40 volt Ryobi go because i dropped it on concrete. I have 10 40v various sized Ryobis...runs two weed walkers, leaf blower, garden cultivator, puah mower and saw. I am...

I have been using the whisper quiet 40 volt mower for three seasons and I really liked it for several reasons over the gas jobs. They had a recent recall which had me disable the one I owned. Then they had me pickup a replacement at Home Depot last week. Most got the replacement shipped to...

My GC2410 came with thick rubber pads on one side and teeth on the other.

I got 14 years of reliable battery life from the original. It outlasted my battery maintainer even, now I have a Delta battery maintainer for the new Walmart Everstart Max. So far so good.

I just went with a Walmart Everstat Max grp 51...so far so good.

BH=Backhoe

I am very interested in the new 1m.25. No BH but I think Im done with BH work now. I wonder if the mmm 2360 will fit? Probably not.

I have ATT and it works in my house using wifi calling.

I have been using M18 and M12 for years now. To date never lost an M18 battery but have lost two M12s. Do not risk your life and assets buying clones....the money you save in short run can cost you everything in the long run.

AGCO Part Number looks correct 3756565M91

I visited the plant in Canoas Brazil-it was a state of the art plant built by South Brazilians. Alot of the model tractors are made in kit form and sold to be assembled elsewhere. There are several other MF plants in Brazil I cant vouch for. Canoas

GC2410 here- I added 4 led external lights and along with the old bulbs for the headlights and tail lights it draws a hefty current. Thinking if I replaced the old bulbs with led it will help alot but which ones for the headlights and tailights do folks use

as long as you can get to the one bolt.

I was a gamer addict for 12 years. My life was...come home from work, get online play multiplayer games like FarCry, Warcraft, Battlefield and so on until 3am. Go to bed wake up go to work...on weekens would play from friday evening straight until Sunday evening. Was a PC gamer and built my own...

I bought my own router mesh...Orbi and high speed modem. Only had to call Spectrum about the modem. I also put them on a UPS...never have any issues and I pay 90 a month for 400mb. When we are in South America we can access all my home stuff to manage my home. We stream all our...

I got them from R2 Manufacturing 6 years ago. well made and they do the trick until the round freezes. They now have poly pads for them.

I have 100s of M12 and M18 tools. The M12 brushless tools really carry there weight. For example-I have the M18 Chainsaw and the M12 Hatchet chain saw. Although the blade is shorter it is my go to for chopping up trees and stuff. Nothing wrong with the M18-but the M12 is easier to grab on...

Almost ready for winter-just need to put the softcab and edgetammers on.

I found several places that make hoses near me so i am ready. I havent used the BH in years.

Had residual leak since new but it got so bad it just dripped out leaving a puddle on the concrete overnight.

I went to Massey Dealer and had to put it on order...said it would take two weeks. Went to John Deer United, the threads were too loose for what the had Tried Kubota, Kioti, Branson...none had the one I need. John Deer United was the only one helpfull enough to recommend Omni Hydraulics Hose...

Im calling ut good for now. Never needed blinkers in 14 years. Need to remember that it will blow the 15 am fuse if i do try it. Next year when Im bored I will dive deeper.

All fixed, hopefully ready for the winter now.

Took the MMM off yesterday so I could put the 3ph snowblower and cab on. Nezt morning noticed a puddle of hydraulic fluid on floor under the DL100 4 Quick Disconnect Couplers. Took DL100 off and cleaned the male and female ends and made sure connections were tight on the threaded ends. Seemed...

However the flashers do not, I followed the wiring back to the tailights but everything seems in order. I dont really need them but I dont see why they shouldnt be working. Have to hit the auto store for spare 15amp fuses.

We are the USA, you can buy whatever you want if you can afford it. I always wanted a RAM 1500 crew cab limited but I aint payin 80k for that junk. So instead I bought a 30k Subaru Outback which fits my utilitarian needs with great gas mileage and excellent safety. Even used RAM 1500 limited...

New LG is crap too, have to put small loads and low spin or otherwise get UE errors everytime. Tech came out said it was normal and washer was fine. I hate new crap! Now Im stuck with a 1500 dollar wimpy washer.

Looks like I need to add checking these to my yearly maintenance list in the spring. I just bought a used 60 inch MMM.

Also-go with M18 if you plane on sticking with M18 and M12 tools. I use Milwaukee for all my hand tools and Ryobi for all my yard work tools. I have the M18 1\2 inch and 3\4 inch fuel impacts. I am impressed with the 3\4 fuel...has never met a bolt it coudnt remove or break. Yes there are...

Never buy Milwaukee products from Amazon. As part of the selective distribution system, Authorized Milwaukee Dealers – the only companies with access to genuine Milwaukee items – are prohibited to sell Milwaukee branded products via third-party sellers or online marketplaces, such as Amazon...

My wifes family is from Brazil so I guess it could be both. I have three good friends that moved from the US to Brazil and they dont ever want to come back. I traveled to South Brazil-Rio Grand Du Sul and Santa Catarina several times-no USA folks around except me. Most foreigners were from...

Still have my 2004 Husvarna 20 years later, 1700 hours. Bought it at Sears for 1700 dollars with mulch kit, dethatcher and 3 bin bagger. Runs like new but the lights stopped working. Has hard time in reverse now so I bought a used 60 inch belly more for my Massey just in case.

Thats what they said to me 12 years ago before I went to Brazil. They said I would get kidnapped, robbed, poisoned and even die of the heat. I even had a special kidnap fun waiting just in case lol. 12 Years later with 8 trips, one for more than 3 months and I am happy to say everytime I went...

When it comes to complex machines like the subcompact market-4 wheel drive, front and rear implements, mid and rear pto-the swiss army knife of tractors, you are bound to have problems no matter the brand. Yes you will need a good repair and parts service department to count on. I need my...

I will probably go sxs next like a rzr.

I have been a Honda ATV owner since 90s, last ATV I purchased I still own. It is a yellow 2004 Honda Rincon, brought me so much fun and helps so much around the house. Was even able to pull a 1200 pound moose from the woods one hunting season. Honda decided to ditch the Rincon and added a...

yes, check up on the reviews as far as support and parts availability. I almost went Mahindra before I went Massey. Massey sold me because when I test drove it it seemed more solid and the parts and support team were really helpful. That was 14 years ago-no regrets. today I would consider...

I have a whole house 16kw NG gen from Generac. 7 years its still protecting my home and loved ones. Dont buy it under the false pretenses its cheap on fuel or I dont need to spend money to maintain it or its a set it and forget it machine. The whole house auto transfer switch is a miracle...

I have a depth perception issue lol

Yesterday damaged the corner of my house with a raised loader bucket while mowing-grrr. Spent 18k on this 3 years ago.

Have you checked the inline screen for filings and debris yet? I think its the same as my GC2410, behind the wheel on the left (looing from rear). The gC2300 could be a concern if its from the spline. It could also be from the rear axle lock mechanism.

I keep it on a dewault battery tender so I assumed it was okay since it was charged and in green when I took the tractor out.

If my Brazilian wife leaves me I will be going to the Philippine's for a new one :) For now I go to South America almost every year. Last time I stayed for 3 months. Everyone told me I would get robbed or kidnapped on and on. 10 years later and so far so good. The risk was a good one in my...

Hope not, just bought an LG Front load washer to replace a Samsung. LG washer is supposed to be most reliable.

Just had a Samsung front load washer destroy itself after 3 years. Wife put three small pillows in it and washed them on normal cycle. During high speed spin it got out of balance and flopped around. Was so bad it ripped a concrete weight anchor bolt then another one just tore a chunk right out...

Fixed it so I dont sound like I was having a mini stroke.

Was already on my way to dealership before your post, had already been to tractory supply and they didnt have these. Good to know next time:)

Here is the replacement part info.

Everything I blew today because of a 1 rookie mistake..I should know better as an former electronic technician.

Another view

Trying attachments again for others search for this later

Got them from the dealer...two for 18 bucks. They stayed open past 5pm just for me. I also blew a 10amp and a 15 amp so have to replace those spares I took. Up and running again. Had to replace the origional battery in the middle of a field in the sun. Battery was 14 years old and finally gave...

I blew both of them on my GC2410 just now cause Dumb A55 me hooked up the batter polarity wrong while replacing the origional battery.

Im pretty happy with this mmm, should have bought one years ago. Now I just need a place to store it for the winter.

Can be repaired and reinforced cheaper than buying a new one.

I am pretty darn impressed with the 5 ton electric log splitter, the quinn digital torque'angle wrench and those cheap dollies. Also bought a herculese hammer drill and battery and brought it to my Brother in law in Brazil 4 years ago-uses it every week...still same battery.

I bought 3 MAGA signs and one MAGA cap.

Bought this in 2005 from Sears and only time I had problems was when Uncle Sam forced the ethanol on us. Was just one time when it had less than 200 hours. I learned how to store my tractor and never had another carb issue again. The only thing that broke was the rod for the forward and...

It was hot as heck and I was in the sun lol. The wheel shaft kept digging into my ribs which didnt help...it was also the first time for me.

Installed the new to me mmm 2326-what a bear it was to install the pto shaft. So much that even though I installed it to test it out I aint taken it back apart now until winter.

Only in the winter.

Yes, you have to install the proprietery zip compressor/decompressor.

Thank You-That did the trick.

Waldoboro, near Amish country :)

This one was on Facebook Marketplace

Got a 2326....need to get owners manual because I have no idea how to mount this monster to the GC2410.

I think I found a 2326 - was told it only was used 2 months. What should I check on this?

Here is my 2 cents, I am also a Windows Engineer. 1-Laptop vs tablet or both and touch screens. Why not both? I have an Asus 2 in 1 and it allows me to do everything very well. I can edit video or photos, internet work, programming while at the same time use it for entertainment as a tablet...

My 2006 Husqvarna is getting tired (1800 hours), transmission will not reverse well. I could buy a new ZT Toro 50 inch for about 6k. My brother reminded me I still shpuld be able to buy a mid mount mower for my GC2410. I also need the three bin bagger setup-cant do without that now. Has...

lol....I mowed over my dogs chuckit toy yesterday, heard and felt a loud fump and saw it shout out 30 feet. Not a single scratch.

Made a big and heavy mistake when I order PATs from Amazon. What I got was a Cat II hitch version lol. Sent it back, was my bad because I didnt see where you choose the size. I would have had to order new PTO shafts for the snowblower and post hole digger anyway. When I sized them up it was...

Also(and I have done this) make sure when mowing you are on low not high when using PTO attachments.

This is solved I hope. Was the temp sender connection. I checked to make sure the gauge was good by grounding it(went to the top like you and the Agco mechanic said it would). Then I cleaned the connection and made aure it was snug after checking upper (141f) and lower(121f) hoses were flowing...

Its hard to get to the sensor at the moment. Im wondering if I am confused and the cullprit could be a stuck thermostat. That could be why its showing cold. I warmed it up last night and both the upper and lower hose had pressure in them and were at 100f temp wise. The oil showed 135 and the...

Yes I did-When I turn the key on it moves up to C and thats it.

I think the temp sensor is bad...how can I sheck the sensor itself? Tech manual doesnt say...only says for meter side.

Hey Folks, was out and about with the Massey and I notice my temp gauge isnt registering the temp after warm up. Where is a good place to start troubleshooting? I see it move when its first started but thats it. Shows below C and never moves up.

bought a 5 ton electric splitter from Harbor Freight-for my fire pit.

Cheap and inexpensive doesnt mean its bad unless your rebuilding dozer treads. They are just light duty, meaning thinner metal capacity and cheaper transformers mean the less you can run a bead before it overheats. My Harbor Freight was that way-weld for 5 minutes and let it cool off for 30...

Make sure you have good ground too. Sometimes with thin metal you have to spot weld a little at a time. I made alot of thin metal tanks that way.

if welding in 110-go cheap. Why because 110v will be a light duty cycle mig anyway. Get one that will weld both flux core wire and gas. Practice a bit using flux core wire then go to gas-you will see a huge difference in your welds-properly set with gas sounds like cooking bacon :) I gave...

Had a near miss, tree came down where I was worried and it was a miracle. Came down between the bedroom (barely scraping by) and my smoker and 3k dollar Weber grill almost ontop of the natural gas meter. A friggin miracle I tell ya. Got to work on getting these widow maker trees gone. We...

Must have used it for mowing 20 plus acres or as a full time PTO generator. If none of the cylinder's are leaking or bent, frame is solid, starts right up and idles or throttles fine. Goes in reverse, high, the PTOs engage, the 3 point goes up and down....in the very least you offer 5k in cash...

Please provide more info.

Well...they are calling for 18 plus inches tonight 4\3\24 :( Heavy wet snow and 55 mph winds. I should have had some half dead trees cut on the side of the house but nooooooo, procrastination is my middle name. They are right on the property line between my and my neighbor so I will have to...

Got 14 inches here but upper 3 inches sleet and frozen rain. Coudnt use my walk behind snow blower so I had to break out my Massey and the 60 inch blower. The pile the city snow plow left wasnt even a challange.

I think a 48 or 50 inch tiller would work better than a 60 inch.

I inspect them every time I grease the fittings. So far had to replace two in the back.

Thanking your family for their military service. I served Army and Airforce then retired in 2008. My burial plan is to be in a VA cemetery as well. I also served in the 80s and its comforting to know that folks like your son are on watch now.

Same I am north of Sabego Lake

I only have 1.5 acres to care for so the Battery tools are way more than enough for me. I can say for sure 2 acres or more and youll be going and charging many batteries and going through head units.

No snow for you Tuesday?

I will never go back to gas powered chainsaws or yard machines. Get my milwaukee chains from Home Depot. Keep extras on hand just in case.

In case anyone is interested- Update campaign FC6192 Steering cylinder mount Ok, just went to dealership to get my "update". All it is, is a brochure that tells the tech that the right side bracket that holds the steering cylinder on serial #'s MFGC2600 from first to JVC93222 MFGC2610 " " "...

My 2 cents...this is OE. Look at the front tires and if you see scuff marks inside or outside it could mean the wheel got cought on a stump or rock bending the brackets. The stop bolts wont help much as the bracket is the weak point...as it may be engineered to be. Stop bolts only stop the ram...

I might as well face the facts, as long as I own this home I have to have a tractor.

I have a tractor with loader and rear mount snowblower and a walk behind snowblower. These past two storms in New England left heavy wet like concret snow. You cant use a snowblower. You have to clean it up because it will freeze the next night. Without my loader I am doomed. I do have an ATV...

I use lots of short bungee cords to keep them tight.

I forgot LOL. I don't remember but I was comfortable with going with gear oil since the front axle doesn't have clutch packs or any fancy pumps in it. So far so good! I will have to check my maintenance log in the garage for what I installed later. I also may have mentioned it in the post I...

After I did mine-I put in a thicker weight oil. 100 hours later-still no seepage still :)

I only put my chains on when we have one of those winters where the driveway and yard becomes a sheet of ice and it snows on top. Snow never stops me :)

Lost power here for 30 hours, internet also came back. My whole house automatic natural gas Generac once again worked like a champ 6 years later. So much wind and so much rain. Used the forks on my GC2410 to remove whole trees the wind killed from my yard...matter of minutes. Later in the...

I bought the BEBIRD Ear Wax Removal system from Walgreen's.

My vertigo comes from the middle ear hairs breaking off and setting of the remaining middle ear hairs.

3 inches in my are-not worth using my 60 inch snowblower or installing the edge tamers for the tractor bucket. Ground is very soft and might get stuck on the mud. Even the walk behind snowblower got stuck in the mud so I gave up and just cleaned the asphalt driveway.

I also have the M18 Chainsaw but always reach for the hatchet. I also have the Ryobi 40v pole chainsaw and that also works better than I expected.

I have been wearing since age of 30 for 27 years now. Had many disturbing side affects from it like severe vertigo (labyrinthitis). Sever tinnitus (that included 24x7 screaming in ears) Heard ransom explosions, incoherent voices, clicking, pinging, and now my left side hears my heart beat 24x7...

LMAO-friggin commies.

Let me see-Biden is the current President of the United States.

I have both the m12 mini hacksaw and m18 saw. I use the mini as my first go to every time.

Used my tractor to move, spread 3 yards of crushed rock, forklift the grill and smoker off the deck and get ready for winter around the house. I am so blessed to have this, thank you God :)

This would really get me angry. Here is what I would do...get on every public advertising for this dealer and just give them the tale of what you found without making accusations directly. Buyer beware sort of tale. Next thing is fix the tac and speedometer and sell it to one of these posters...

Wow, I was stationed on Hanau Germany 1987 to 1990. Had the deisel chevy blazer...M1009 CUCV on the Autobahn at 91 mph. Shortly after there was an all stop on them because the tires would blow atv 55mph. I did own and drive a 1982 Mercedez sedan but was too chicken to drive over 100mph with it.

Various sizes from 2ah, 4ah, 6ah and 8 ah. They all came with the tools because unlike my milwaulee tool line for m18 and m12 batteries, Ryobi doesnt uave much in the tool only category at HD. I only bought one 4ah extra seperate from all the Ryobi tools.

While I dont have the rider yet- Ive had the Ryobi self propelled mower with two 40v 8ah batteries and it does what it should. I can mow for 30 minutes plus per battery and it handles the tall grass well. Light and quietish-easy maintenance and storage. I have been using Ryobi outdoor tools...

Still way to muddy for me to take my tractor out. Got a heavy hutch to move with my forks when it dries up a bit.

All axles have a vent..otherwise you would blow seals left and right. Always make aure they are clear and above the water line.

I saw a set at TSC a couple years back and maybe its worth it to buy a whole set instead of trying to find one matching replacement arm? Also...the new set just has to be close in dimensions? Just something to consider.

Can someone fix the link for me? The Mobile App doesnt seem to have a link embedder.

TYM bought out Branson in what appears to be a very good financial choice. I am looking at TYM myself to upgrade my Massey. Partially due to price but mostly because their (including the Branson line up) subcompacts and compacts meet the size vs weight amd HP ratings.

Update..well bought a new batteru from walmart...500 cca. Brought ut home and put it on the trickle charger to make sure its 100% before I installed it. Wellllll....the trickle charger was doing the same thing on the new battery as it did on the old...flashing red and green. After running...

Got everything ironed out and hydro lines managed better. Later I will work on having some spares made up just in case. Lost almost two gallons of hydro fluid which had me worried I hurt the pump. Last snow storm with heavy wet stuff had me trial by fire the fixes and pump condition and I am...

Strange..these are wet brakes. I as well as several others have found the brakes somewhat lacking. I didnt think this was even possible. Maybe its a combination of linkage settings on the brake side and hydro petal side? What hydraulic fluid are you using? Is it at the propper level...

In the past I had my fair share if garbage brand batteries tgat just werent the lead used to make them. For example..sears die hard when it was sears was tge biggest crap I ever owned in Maibe cooold winters. Always had problems with them. At the time Duralast was the best. 10 years ago Mopar...

The dealer messed up when color coding them and I was to lazy to fix it lol. One has yellow and red because the yellow ones connect to each other when the BH is off and the red one is when its off or visa versa lol.

I will check out NAPA Legend, Maybe Die Hard?

So I think im good now. Going to try one more time with that stupid safety plate.

My battery is now having a hard time with the trickle charger. Its origional and 13 years old. Was wondering what would be the best replacement brand wise? I have never had an issue with the current capacity or CCA. Even whith my snowblower the LED lights, and electric chute and deflector.

I thought the hoses for the BH were power beyond? Anyway..I spoke to my dad yesterday and he reminded me that at least I have a warm garage to fix this in:) Yeah Im nervous about removing that safety plate but it is the main reason for destroying these hoses. Its impossible to manage them around it.

The auger is pto driven and the deflector and chute are electric.

I am so frustrated with this setup on the power beyond hoses. Finally replaces the hose I thought was busted...added 1.5 gallons of hydraulic fluid (thats what I lost) and tested it. Pump seems to be ok. Well..apparently the 36 inch hose wasnt the only one leaking. A 24 inch hose is also...

Hi Folks. Was clearing some very heavy wet snow yesterday when I started to smell hydraulic oil and the loader started to shutter during lifting. I immediately pulled into the garage and noticed the entire 3 point hitch area is saturated in hydraulic oil. The glass shows no oil at this moment. I...

Ill take a pic tomorrow...i believe I git this one from Advanced Auto

Maybe the dealer gave me even thicker oil? I remember it tool a long time to refill it :)

Took me half a day but im no mechanic. Take your time and dont cut any corners. Watch the hub covers as they are made of aluminum. I used too much pressure on the pinch bar in the pry point on one. They can be stubborn to remove.

Sounds like the pivot arm seal is leaking and it will have to be replaced on both sides preferably. I as well as others have replaced them and its not too bad if a job. There is instructions and pics on how to do this as well as seal part numbers here in the forum. The hardest part was finding...

Im thinking about it. https://summit-hydraulics.com/product/electric-rear-remote-valve-kit-for-compact-tractors-two-spool-three-spool-four-spool/?ref=tim_marks

By the way it looked like the clip was hanging on the gear in the picture. That would prevent it from going up too.

I have a slope for a back yard.....When I use my 3 bin bagger to pickup leaves I have to get on and off my tractor 100s of times to empty them. Still doesn't bother me to disengage PTO, and put parking break on. I have one more round of leave bagging to go before winter.

Good luck with that-I got better things to do with my OCD than a garden tractor :)

I added a fuel valve on mine so I add fuel stabilizer and shut the fuel off letting and run it untl it starves of fuel. Then I take an air hose and clean all dust and dirt and filter. Same with the 3 bin bagger. I also seal the baggers in a plastic bag to keep critters out. Then I store it in...

Did something I hope works. I have 40 yards of clay sitting in a pile I want to get rid of. My lawn needs alot of smoothing out so I decided to try mixing GC2410 load of loam with one load of clay, then add half a load of compost. Worked well with flowers and garden. Ill let you know next...

Could be one of three things-an injector not working(engine miss), broken engine mount(s) or in my case at one time the main drive shaft was out of balance and dealer fixed by moving shaft.

All frames allow for some flex same with unibodies. However on my dads farmall tractor the transmission and axle housings are the frame. Dont see how they can flex.

Went to change my oil at 288 hours. Started it up to warm the oil and I had the hood open while it was running. Niticed something odd on the muffler side. Lower Alternater bolt was spinning against the belt. At some point the nut came off and the only thing holding the bolt from falling out...

to me. it looks like you have some air in your sump which is giving you a misleading level in the glass level indicator. How many quarts did you add? I would try removing at least a half a quart...then purge the air by raising and lowering the loader and curling the bucket 10 times, same with...

Its too hot to play

I love some if their standard features.

Thanks Everyone

The BH is mounted but yes I do see where it goes. Was wondering if that side of the turmbuckle also had a nut like the topside of the turnbuckle does. I noticed the ones they sell at The Tractor Supply store do not.

I would never circumvent a safety item especially on a tractor. I have a snowblower and i will gladly live with the pto safety switch any day. There should be a disclaimer for all posts of this nature...do at your own risk, life, limb, relative, pet.etc.

No, and I have a better reason to than most because I already have a 7kw upgradeable to a 10kw solar system on my house. It would mean I get my fuel for free. A couple if months ago I bought a brand new car but it wasnt an EV. It is a 2022 Subaru Outback limited....no turbos. It will be...

Found this in my yard but I know its from my GC2410. Is this end supposed to have a nut? It just came off by itself.

Nice, I wouldnt worry about the paint just rust.

it wasnt the pin that hit me on the head it was the ROP. Man thats heavy-I did not go to the hospital because it was a small lump, no bleeding . I didnt get a headache either. So far so good I think.

Hello, Hope all is well with everyone. Wanted to share a misshap I recently had with my tractor. Took the tractor out of storage last week. Had it in the shed with a trickle charger and the ROPS up. To get it out I had to fold the ROPS but I dropped one of the pins behind the BH and couldn't...

I have had the 6.5 HP HF Plate Compacter for 6 years. Bought it with a discount and coupon at the store for 500. Works great, never had a problem except everyone wants to borrow it. Right now its at my dads house and I need to get it for some projects of my own. So far I used it for paver...

As a MF GC2410 owner for 12 years and I would recomend going with a compact or subcompact tractor with bigger drive train and bigger tires for handling 18 acres. While the MF GC1705 will get it done, the question is cost of tractor vs cost of your time. In other words a 72 inch brush hog will...

Got home from my Brazil trip after 90 plus days and the first thing I did(not kidding either) was check on my GC2410. Sure enough I see now that there is a small fuel leak in the same spot.

Last week my dad had a second heart attack and ended up in the hospital. My mom was so worked up about it she had a bad fall, ruptured her gallbladder and also diagnosed with multiple spine fractures. No my dad has to wear a pacemaker and my mom had her gallbladder removed and will wear a back...

I am in Cuiaba Brazil and its not warm its hot-95f today.

I miss my GC, havent seen it in three months. My neigbor is using his subcompact John Deer to clean out my driveway while Im away.

Yes its summer-Carnival time. Its so hot here today 95f and yes after three months I cant wait to get back to Maine. I had a little fender bender with my rental car and a city taxi in Canoas when I visited the Massey plant. He was going three times the speed limit when we hit. Was a bad day...

Just returned from Canoas but they weren't taking tours due to the pandemic. Sorry...

Cant comment on the blade but I have the 60 inch Woodmaxx on 1n 18.7 HP rear PTO. It does pretty well on this but I would recommend the bigger tractor. I have the electric auger, and deflector as well as add on LED lights. The neck thing does get some getting used to-I tried the mirrors but...

I would rather hit a deer (and I have several times) with an SUV than a Smart Car-just saying:)

Some good points but I think your wrong in saying its due to larger vehicles. I have seen elderly and children run over far too often by compact cars...much more so than large SUVs and cars. Technology can help, we have all kinds of sensors and cameras now. Some of the bigger pickup trucks and...

Here is a video of the plant sorry its in Portuguese(not my video)...

I think I talked with you a while back when I last visited the plant, they also make them in Mogi das Cruzes (Brazil). The kits go to different places in the US and world, but they do export the whole tractor to various places. I can only say what I saw with my own eyes that the Canoas plant is...

34 c today here (93f) and its the rainy season-Mato Grosso Brazl. Yes I am from Maine.

I still hope to be able to tour the place-sometimes Americans can get vip status for these tours.

I am currently in the Brazilian state of Mato Grosso will be going further south soon. I tried PATS QH but found the extension too much of a pain in the but. On my snowblower I would have to get a new PTO Shaft so I returned it.

Keep in mind they manufacture and sell tractors in kits-they are assembled in the US or wherever else they are sold to.

Out of the frying pan and into the oven...its in the 90s where I am now with near 100% humidity (rainy season) Im almost wishing I was back in Maine-almost. Next month we are going further south not too far from Argentina-temps are muchhhh better-I hope.

Andrew has week rocks.

Dang-well, no tour for me :( Friggin pandemic! MF Canoas Visitor’s Experience Tour Thanks you for your interest on getting a Canoas Visitor’s Experience Tour. As your health and safety is our top priority, our factory is at the moment not opened for any visits due to the coronavirus pandemic.

I will be near the Massey Plant in Canoas, Rio Grande Do Sul-Brazil in a few weeks. I am going to try and tour the plant and vlog some of it if they let me. I just want to show you that Brazil manufacturing is as good here as in Italy or Germany. I remember some saying they didnt think Brazil...

I do use CBD products for anxiety, it does work but it could be the fragrance and not the CBD oil in it (Placebo) If its medicinal properties work so well why cant the synthesize it like they do aspirin from willow tree? I think with all the information I have now-its a marketing gimmik but...

I have the Woodmaxx 60 inch and I run it using my GC2410 with 19HP at the PTO. It does way 695 pounds-the more the better on a rear snowblower. It does not go up unless you raise your a arms:) It comes with some heavy duty adjustable shoes. I love this snowblower, if I could do it all over...

I hate anything to do with this weed. To use valuable land to grow the junk which should be considered and invasive species is so wasteful. I have smoked. and consumed its garbage-like eating junkfood.

Jeep is not made by Dodge, but both are part of same parent company. I have owned 4 generations of Jeep and put over 150,000 miles on all of them except the one I drive now (have about 10,000 miles to go before I get there.) I have never lost a transmission, transfer case or engine on any of...

I have a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, 140,000 miles. Owned it since almost new, been in one minor front end fender bender. Still runs like new, had front struts replaced, front axle seal and bushing replaced, front drive shaft U joints replaced and other than normal maintenance still...

I think its a mudhole where the water collected and it sunk while it drainied in these two spots.

Had one blow up in my face when I was a kid....I didnt know any better but my stupid father should have. He was in the loader trying to start it after a boost and I was the one clamping the jumper cables. Apparently there was alot of gas....and BOOM. Acid all over me, my face and clothes not...

Isnt that the point? It looks like those suggesting the missing 4 bar link will not only offer more stability but it will shorten the cylinder travel length. I tend to agree that bucket was not designed for this type tractor-it was designed for a skid steer. This setup offers way to much...

I got my PHD four years ago:)

Have-a-Heart traps its their name brand. I got mine at Tractor Supply Store.

I know its a bit tight but if you tuck in the chains using bungee cords or rope you do not need spacers. I use chains and I have a 60 inch woodmaxx blower..never needed front chains. Chains are not recommended for steering wheels on almost any vehicle even when they are powered. If you break...

Mine is doing ok only because its always parked inside and i used to wax it with Mothers. But no-most tractors are not painted with good quality paint-that includes implements. My box blade which is powder coated included-however, they will still outlast me.

Its simple, bring back the horses! Oh I forgot, they fart....... Ok, how about we all go back to the 1800s? Oh I forgot-they used coal.....Oh man I give up.
