Correct. Just under 2" inches per side is what it gave me.

My driveway is well established with all the nearby stumps ground down by our Woodland Mills stump grinder, an implement that works far better than advertised.

E-mailed King Kutter back and forth several times. Basically came down to me not having the paper copy of my receipt. Their Customer Dis-Service rep Cody told me I was S.O.L. Unless I gave them a receipt. So keep that in mind when you buy attachments for your tractor.

Hardly. They have no warranty on their products.

1. Take cash from my farm budget stash and put it in my pocket. 2. Use three recovery straps all linked together and my '77 Chevy in 4wd to pull my little 4x8' trailer through 100+ feet of 3' deep snow until it reached the main driveway. 3. Shovel 3' snow off of the little trailer. 4. Hooked...

Just a picture of what I described in my last post, I had another picture, but my phone breathed it's last breath on planet earth uploading this image.

I already replaced it. My local farm store had ~20 or so in stock.

That is a darn good point.

We just need to get the chains on. Job done. Moving >500lb tires from side to side in blowing snow is not my first choice.

Two Harbor Freight jinky jacks, light from my Polaris Ranger, a spare card table and the job is done. My wife stopped by to bring me beer and moral support. 1. Break torque on the inner hub to rim bolts while on the ground. 2. Jack up 3. Remove the (6) nuts from the wheel hub and punch out...

Yeah, I have the rake too, same setup.

I'm dreaming of a smooth concrete floor right now. What I got is a semi flat, ice and snow covered dirt lot. I'll manage. I always do. I'm going to get it off the ground and go for setting 2 or 3 in the book. I can't put it super wide or I won't be able to get around in the forest. We'll see how...

Split right on the seam of the pipe. I would have thought this seam would have been facing 180 degrees from where they installed it. Weakest part of the pipe in the highest stress area of the mount. No warranty of course. Going to take it to a local welding shop and have them re-enforce it a bit.

I don't need but an inch or so. The manual says the wheels have 4 different settings and it ships with them installed in the most narrow position. I really should have widened them before, like before winter. But the tractor was doing what I asked of it in the narrow position. And I'm very busy...

Silly me I thought my 4wd tractor would be okay without chains this winter. It's doing ok, but I'm slipping a bit much for my peace of mind. So I guess my tractor needs chains to get around our property. So we spent a small fortune on some nice chains. When I went to put them on, while they are...

First time using the PTO on the tractor so I was sort of just waiting for something to break. Spotted a minor hydraulic leak, I'll deal with that later. Overall it was a successful day

First stump down! 5 million to go. This was a ~30" pine stump.

This tractor has been a royal pain in my butt so far, broken hard twice. But it's working fine now and we are at ~72hrs. Moving some nice downed tress to the wood mill pile and some junk to the firewood pile. https://rumble.com/vdh189-massey-1735m-moving-logs..html...

Started up the 1735M and it seemed like it took a few more cranks than normal. Dash has the error light, code 000723 and below it 02 . . something, something crank sensor if I read the code and interpreted the manual correctly. Turned it off & pulled the neg cable on the battery for a few...

So I popped the radio cover plate off yesterday and see the power/speaker/antenna plugs. Looks like any old car radio should fit. Is there a Massey plug to adapt to a generic radio or should I just remove the wires from the two existing plugs and splice into the radio I buy?

Grapple on! So at least the front is useful to me now! Notes: That Diverter bolt/thingy is a ***** to get at with the cab on. Holy ****. 15/16" or there abouts. Ratchet would not clear so I had to use a crescent wrench. Not fun. Did I say "Not Fun", yeah, not fun at all. The 12v source should...

Well here is the $105 diverter plug. Came with an o-ring installed. Would have been nice to know that since the o-rings are only available as a pack of (10) at $3 each. So ~$135'ish + S&H for this plug. I got an oil filter for the 50hr service while I was at it. That was probably another $30 I'm...

I'm noticing that getting parts for these things is not the simple matter I'd expect it to be. Seems like Agco forces you to go through the dealer for everything. Just called a nearby dealer to order the two small parts Diverter Plug (SL103119) and O-Ring (SL103143) I need to complete the...

I'm trying to add the 3rd function to my (broken) tractor to get some use out of it while I wait for the repair to happen. First off, I'd rate the provided instructions for this as terrible. I'm a decent mechanic and the instructions are "meh" at best. The instructions refer to the "loader...

I was going to get the Everything Attachments grapple anyway . . so may as well get it now since my 3-Point is useless. How difficult is the 3rd function kit to install? They said it replaced the knob on the joystick among other things. So I'm thinking there will be considerable work involved...

Better pictures.

Did I just have some bad luck? Or do these things break like this on a regular basis? Another user mentioned seeing a similar break, but wasn't sure if it was a Massey. This broke pulling the same box blade my Ford 2N has been pulling for years. I'm new here and have been lurking and reading...

Here is the broken bit. To add salt to the wound the tractor had 5.2 hours on it when we brought it home so I got less than 3hrs of use on it before this happened. I just can't wrap my head around why this part was the weak link that broke. Also makes me worried that even if it gets repaired...

We've had a 2n doing work around our 60 acre forest / farm for many years and decided it was time to upgrade. While useful and reliable the 2n just wasn't getting things done in a timely manner. I could work on our 1/3 mile long dirt driveway for an entire weekend with the box blade and make...
