    Stihl KM94r or Echo PAS-2620?

    I've been researching pole saws lately and decided that a multiple attachment tool would be a wiser purchase than a stand alone tool. I would mainly be using it for use with the pole saw attachment, but eventually would also add trimmer and brush cutter attachments. I have one Echo dealer and...

    Yamaha Wolverine X2

    I've been looking at UTV's for several years, but none of the big 3 Japanese manufacturers of UTV's (my preference is Japanese motorcycles and vehicles) had made anything that checked all the boxes I needed checked: sport, utility, bucket seats (comfort), tilt wheel, reliability, affordability...

    Stihl FS85 or FS94R?

    I have a choice (for free) between a Stihl FS85 or an FS94R (assuming they both run the same). The choice between a bike handle or not doesn't matter to me; I just wanted to know if the older 85 is a better made brush trimmer, or if I should choose the newer 94.

    Changing fuel filter

    I've never changed the fuel filter on a tractor before, and the filter on my 4047 is due. Are the instructions in the manual adequate, or are there any tips that would be helpful to add? Thanks in advance.

    Fuel gauge rust

    I've been having some issues with my fuel gauge lately, so I took it apart yesterday. Upon pulling the apparatus from the tank I saw that the top two or three inches of metal were rusted. I sanded it down to the metal, cleaned it up with brake cleaner, and reinstalled. Just thought I'd pass...

    Pat's Quick Hitch...anybody have them on their LS? Opinions?

    I was thinking about purchasing Pat's Quick Hitch arm ends for my 4047. If anybody here has them on their 4041/4047 I was wondering if any grinding was necessary to get them to fit?

    Opinion on backhoe for 4047

    I'm kicking around the idea of getting a backhoe for my 4047. If anyone here has a hoe on their 4041 or 4047 I'd like to know what they think of it. And how it compares to other hoes on other tractors they've owned or operated. P.S. I'm not interested in buying a mini-excavator or a...

    PA price check on 4041H and 4047H

    PA price check on 4041H and 4047H...Edit...4047H on the way After much tire kicking I am ready to pull the trigger on the purchase of one of these two tractors. I like the dealer, he's established, seems committed to the brand, and he's also the nearest dealer to me. He quoted me a taxed...

    LS vs Kubota vs Bobcat hydro "smoothness"

    I have been shopping (and researching) for my 1st tractor for a few months now. During one week I test drove an LS 4041H, a Kubota L4240, and a Bobcat CT440. While the hydro's on both the Kubota and Bobcat were smooth the LS was very abrupt. In other words when first starting to move and when...

    Newbie intro and LS pricing question

    I've been browsing this forum for a couple of months now and first, wanted to say "hello" and comment on how informative this forum is. My wife and I live in northeastern PA and we own 72 acres. Probably 15 acres are pasture and the rest is wooded, and most of that is pretty steep (40-45...
