    3-pt leaf blowers

    I am looking for a 3-pt leaf blower for my John Deere 2210 tractor with a PTO rating of just 17.7 HP. Most of the leaf blowers seem to start at a minimum requirement of 20 HP at the PTO. What performance issues should I expect by running a leaf blower requiring a minimum of 20 PTO HP on my17.7...

    Kubota diesel engine

    Thanks. Not lax - have the machine serviced annually. Correction about not stalling - it still stalls.

    Kubota diesel engine

    I had previously checked the air filter, but in response to these suggestions, I ran it both with and without the air filter in place - no difference between the two. But now, instead of stalling out in a few seconds, it continues to run but sounds like it will stall. Still black smoke and no...

    Kubota diesel engine

    My Skag mower with a 25 hp Kubota diesel engine has given me 13 years of trouble-free operation. On my first attempt to use it this season, the engine "popped" when I started it, and the exhaust began pouring out lots of dense black smoke. The exhaust sputters and makes a sizzling sound. The...

    Width of 3-point Implements

    The overall width of my tractor is 6 feet. I am intending to buy a land plane/grader for driveway maintenance and general landscaping and I'm looking for opinions on whether a standard 6-foot grader is adequate or if it's best to go with a seven-foot grader for coverage outside the tractor...

    Asphalt driveway and R4 tires

    I have a Mahindra tractor with a loader and ballast in the rear tires (R4's) that weighs just a little under 7000 pounds. It is frequently run on our gravel driveway, but we are looking at upgrading to asphalt that will be spread 4 inches thick and rolled and compressed to 3 inches thick. Once...

    John Deere 4044R

    I am looking at buying a new John Deere 4044R tractor, and there are several reviews on the JD website. Some of these complain that the tractor (43 hp) is under-powered. Has anyone had similar experience with this tractor, or with the 4044? If so, how was it being used? JD customer support would...

    New Holland Boomer 54D Tractor Error Code

    I have an intermittent problem where error code 3350 appears as the instrument cluster is trying to excite the alternator over the period of half a minute or longer. The service manual describes the fault related to the error code as "terminal 50 (crank input) always on", and "engine cranked for...

    New Member - New Holland owner

    Hello. I recently traded in my 2002 John Deere 4410 for a 2015 New Holland Boomer 54D. This was a real step up for me in terms of power (more than I need) and technology (what could possibly go wrong?) We have six acres and I use the tractor for maintaining a long gravel drive, snow removal...
