I recently purchased a bottom plow and need to replace the point. I am having a hard time finding one to fit. So the question is does anyone have a Star catalog. I found Star MF CO stamped on the back side with the numbers HS 111. Any help in identifying a replacement would be much appreciated.

Anyone know about this plow. It could use some parts replaced but I cannot find anything on Pittsburgh plows online.

I traded for a WAC finish mower, I see parts for this mower and several others IE First Choice, Sicma, Kioti, Phoenix mentioned. If you have a WAC or one of the others and happen to have an owners manual I'd be eternally grateful if I could get a copy. I am refurbishing mine and it will be like...

I thought I'd post about my 1st 50hr maintenance. I purchased my trans fluid from Amazon it was Triax Agra UTTO XL SYNBLEND Premium Tractor Hydraulic & Transmission Oil 23.19 a gal and a wix filter 23.58. If I had it to do again I'll go with a different filter. It took about 3 gals to refill the...

Anyone have issues getting the rear axle to lock. Sometimes my locks fine and at other times it will not lock.

This tractor continually surprises me. This tree blew over in a fierce rain storm this summer the base of it is probably 18-24 inches in diameter. I was concerned about pinching the saw so just for kicks I decided to see if the tractor would lift it and it did. was able to get it cut up and...

I'm learning to clear out small saplings and vines and small tree stumps. About the biggest I've successfully tackled is in the 3-4 inch range anything larger I really have to abuse the tractor. I cleared about a 35-40 x 15 foot bank Saturday. It is all trial and error for me because it is my...

Has anyone purchased these spacers? If so are you happy with them? I am very impressed with their customer service I emailed them Sunday morning expecting to get a reply sometime this week but got a response same day. Here is their response and what the sell for my tractor. I would like to...

I bought one of their plows that was specifically for a SCUT. It has a brand name of Tarter when I received it. When I went to install on my tractor the top link would not fit the slot. I had an old one that worked but the one that came with my tractor was to wide. What would be the corrective...

I added a toolbox to my tractor and after using the loaded for a little while I've decided I do not like the location. It obscured my side view of the loader and so I can't tell when I have to bucket level with the ground so now I am thinking behind the seat.

Did my 1st oil change today. I had 18.5 hours on the HM. I didn't search on here for filters but did a cross on the baldwin site and came up with Baldwin Heavy Duty B7356 Spin-On Lube Filter. I like Baldwin and their filter case is RED so what's not to like. LOL I should have done this a little...

Well I have already broke a light. I saved all the pieces and glued it back together and looked to buy another to replace it with. Holy cow, someone is making a ton of money on these lights. The cheapest one I could find for an exact replacement was 117.00. I decided I needed to move them to the...

I'm a newbie so if this is a dumb question please be easy on me. I am used to the 3 point lift control on older tractors being set at a certain point with stops. So How do you always attain the same depth setting on the new tractors? It is like an on/off switch it goes down till you let off the...
