Went to check the engine oil after greasing the entire machine and pulled out the handle without the dip stick attached. First question is has this ever happened to anyone? I know the dip stick is in the oil pan but don't have a clue when it broke off. I had probably run about 10+ hours since...

Hope everyone is having a good day. Ok, I received free from a guy at work (who had inherited it) a Lincoln 225 amp AC welder. Just can't beat the price so I am going to start welding. It is pretty dusty and just needs some attention. I went ahead and hooked it up to a 30 amp breaker (I have the...

Just wondering how long can I store diesel in a clean 55 gallon drum out of the weather? I just need an easier way to fuel the tractor and I am tired of shuffling plastic 5 gallon cans. I have to get it up over the hood and the old 58 year old back does not like it. I would ad the right amount...

Well after 6 years and almost 2 months the old 4025 original battery finally died. I hate to admit it but I do not even know the brand because it has never been out (tucked in there tight and nothing on top but the warnings) . Unless something is really cheaper I am going with the exact same...

I looked at the Kubota, Cub Cadet and John Deere before settling on the Bad Boy. All were comparable except the Cub Cadet that really was strictly for residential use (the model I was looking at). The Deere was eliminated because of the dealer attitude. They are all good mowers and all do the...

I did not think this part of the TractorByNet web site would be this dead. Just noticed most threads here are months old with nothing but members viewing.

$5699 out the door. The Tractor Supply Elite ZT is sold for $4999 with a Koehler engine (nothing wrong with the Koehler). I bought it at WC tractor in Navasota mainly because I can have it repaired there if need be and parts are on the shelf also. I have also picked up a few implements from them...

So far she is well pleased, I guess the real test will be in July and August when we are busting 100+. We will see if she is still as excited!

Well, we took the plunge and went with a new Bad Boy ZT Elite rigged with the Kawasaki FR730 engine. I have only moved it once but the wife has already claimed it for herself since she enjoys the mowing thing (3 acres around the house). Just wanted to see if anyone has experience with one of...

Hope I am posting this in the correct place. I have the opportunity to get a Tanaka chain saw as a safety award gift. I have a Husqvarna that has been great and a mid size Poulan for lighter cutting. I have never seen or used a Tanaka but I have heard of the brand, the particular saw will be a...

Happy Thanksgiving from Grimes county Texas.

Has anyone ever changed the timing belt on an RTV 500. The manual says change it at 1000 hrs. (it is at 1165). My main concern, is this a "clearance" engine meaning to me that the valves will not hit the pistons if the belt breaks. Is this something I can do? Is it something the dealer should...

My first post in this section, I am looking at buying a 2006 RTV 500 with 1158 hours on it. I have heard the machine start and run and it sounds good. It is at the local Kubota dealer and is currently recieving full service including a new seat and the bed is being repainted and rhino coated...

Does any one have any experiance with Mahindra or Kodiak shredders? (Kodiak makes the Mahindra) Are they worth the money and reliable. My first cut is going to be a little on the rougher side but after that it will be normal use and nothing big. I do not push my equiptment hard as I am not...

My 4025 has just had warranty repairs completed today and will be back home today. Power steering reservoir had a cracked weld at mounting bracket and was leaking. The best part is that the dealer picked up the tractor and made repairs and are returning it today, no transportation charge. Wow...

I was wondering if cleaning the transmission srceen requires a complete transmission drain? The screen is located on the bottom and appears to allow the transmission to drain if the cover is removed. If this is the case I guess that just changing the filter, cleaning the screen and replacing the...

Does any one have a 6 foot tiller that they use with ther 4025? I would like a 6 foot wide model to cover the tractor tracks. Or should I go with say a 4 1/2 or 5 foot model that offsets. The soil is sandy lome with very little clay and a few moles. Just want to know if the 6 footer is pushing...

After delivery of my Mahindra 4025 my neighbor stopped by to have a look. He had never looked at one up close, said it looked like a nice tractor but did not know of anyone that had actually owned one and was not sure about long term durability from a Indian mfg. About 3 months ago a new John...

Has anyone had a problem with coolant loss. I noticed that a very small amount seems to vibrate out of the vent cap on the recovery tank at 1500 to 2100 RPM. It takes 10 to 12 hours to reach the low mark. Do you have a solution if it has happened to you.

Does any one have some cross reference filter numbers for a 2010 4025? I would like to get a stock of them since the dealer is about an 80 mile round trip. I do not have to have a certain brand. Need fuel, both air, oil, hydraulic and power steering. Also if you are using a brand of...

Hello, just joined. The new Mahindra 4025 w/ loader was delivered on 5/14/10. Will soon have questions on alternate brand filters and lubricants to start with.
