I presume you mean "trunks" rather than "roots". You will need a tractor with a weight of 5,000 pounds, equipped with a Backhoe, in order to dig out trees with a 15" trunk diameter. A mini-excavator will dig out such trees faster than any compact tractor equipped with a Backhoe.

What is the diameter of the holly tree trunks at ground level? Tractor weight and 4-WD are the deciding factors for the tractor. Moist soil is a critical factor as to whether or not the roots will let go from the soil.

In 4-WD the front wheels turn about 5% further than the equivalent units for the back tires. This is primarily to aid steering in the dirt. Hence 4-WD tractor tires have tread. 2-WD front tires are grooved, not treaded. 4-WD also increases traction.

Are your tires "loaded" with liquid or tire foam? Do you have iron wheel weights attached to your wheels?

Indubitably to Three Point Hitch mounted implements.

Deere, with its great history in Iowa and diverse Big Ag product line dominates the prairie states where square mile farms are not unusual, a big swathe of the USA. I rarely see Kubota, LS, Kioti or Branson tractors on farms in Iowa or Nebraska, for example. Deere is everywhere but Deere has...

Ford Tractor company came out with the 1000 series tractors in 1967. The 3000 was the compact tractor of that time and went on to become one of the greatest tractors that has ever been built. They are still fetching fairly high prices fifty years later due to their bullet proof design, battle...

I am unfamiliar with tractors. The fundamental importance of TRACTOR WEIGHT eludes many tractor shoppers. Tractor weight is more important identifying compact tractor capability than tractor horsepower. The most efficient way to shop for tractors is to first identify potential tractor...

David Brown is an English tractor. I speculate obtaining parts in Alaska would be impossible. Deere is better than most with parts. I expect that parts for the German built, 35+ year old Deere 2350 will be reasonably available from Waterloo, Iowa but VERY EXPENSIVE. Parts might take 3-4...

I’d like to use it in my wooded plots. In food plot work, a Disk Harrow no wider than the tread width of my rear R4/industril tires fits between trees. A wider Disk hangs up on trees, after the tractor is through. Backing up a wide TPH Disk in the woods, especially on a slope, is difficult and...

It is understood you need to move them. Do you need to lift bales in order to stack them two or three bale rows high? An open station tractor with a bare weight of 3,700 to 4,000 pounds can lift and move 800 - 1,200 pound round bales using a bale spear on the Front End Loader and stack bales...

"Huge" round bales I interpret as 1,400 pounds or more. For safely moving and stacking 1,400 pound round bales with a FEL bale spear a 5,027 pound bare weight open station Kubota M7060 is about right. In addition to the 1,400 pound bale you will have a 1,400 pound FEL hanging off the front...

I stand by this post. The proposal that HST transmission will negatively affect pulling a flail mower is silly. HST might limit pulling a heavy Disc Harrow or other ground contact implement sunk in the ground, but not a flail mower which rides on rollers.

I passed 25 years in the employ of two Calfornia wineries. At both wineries the O&V tractors were Deeres.

I want something a little more powerful to run my flail mower without bogging down. Transmission choice will have no effect on power transmission to PTO powered implements.

2-WD or 4-WD? Loader? Gear or HST? Inside stored or outside stored? Where is the tractor located?

(Generally speaking....) Tractor hydraulic flow is for intermittent, not continuous use. Steering, FEL movement, hydraulic tilt, hydraulic Top Link control, scarifier extension/retraction etc. Power for implements is provided mechanically, through the PTO shaft. The exception are Orchard...

You have identified the main differences between the L series and M series. You have to make up you mind which set of tractor attributes will serve you best. The only advantage I see to the L series is potential compatibility with some of your to35 implements. I've been avoiding looking...

Yes, GOLDENROD. Goldenrod is a perennial which spreads by seed and roots. If you want to use mechanical control plowing, then disc harrowing soil 6" deep will kill Golderod over 2-3 years. You will have to plow before plants set seed, then disc harrow every time new growth comes up during...

I am not a mechanic, I have new hoses fabricated either at the Kubota dealer or at NAPA nearby. I only know enough to install the replacements.

My experience differs. I have had four or five Loader hydraulic hoses replaced and the metal fittings were reused each time. Perhaps my Kubota L3560 hydraulic hoses are not the crimp on type.
