    hydraulic drifting

    I thought maybe I neglected tractor too much over winter. It was wet here and no sense getting it out. When I did finally dust it off, I had a new problem. Loader will drift slowly down, or up, after letting go of handle. I've dug some unintentional new holes while driving and not watching...

    Classified ads and I'm a klutz

    Classified ads and I\'m a klutz I just posted my first ad, which took me 3 tries to get right. First I forgot to check state so I was shown as being in Alabama. I couldn't see how to edit state so I deleted. I submitted new ad and then noticed I left off that it was 4wd, so I edited but did...

    Trade-in value - 4200

    Well the dealer finally made it out to evaluate my 4200 for trade-in. 4200 manual, 600 hours, loader. I had prepared myself for disappointment, which was a good thing. They were only willing to give $7000 trade-in. This really burst my bubble. I've seen ads for this tractor for between...

    How many platinum members?

    Maybe I need to wait for the user list for this. But I was curious. How many veteran members are there? Platinum? Total? etc. It's been a while so I can't remember what was on the user list anymore.

    Plant name

    I'm looking for the name of a plant. It grows in southeast Texas. It looks a little like corn, without the ears, and a lighter shade of green, and taller. Grows to 8-12 feet. People use it for privacy borders. I see it along fences, roads and in some yards. I'm pretty sure it's a grass...

    2210 and RFM

    The posts here on 2210 mostly mention purchases with mmm. Is anyone using a 2210 with a RFM? What size? How is it working? How does this tractor handle other 3ph implements (ie phd and brush hog)? Now that my lot is cleared and larger work finished, I'm considering trading down to a smaller...

    Demolishing concrete culvert

    I have three 4-foot diameter by about 6 or 8 feet long cement culverts that were on my place when I bought it. Any suggestions on how to demolish? I can't move them except maybe to just nudge. I tried a masonry blade on a circular saw to slit into pieces, but first cut was only 1/4 inch deep...

    Leaking well tank

    I didn't get an answer to this on Countrybynet, so I thought I'd try here. I know I can get a new well tank for 2 or 3 hundred dollars. When I drilled a new well I put in a new tank and kept the old one. It's plumbed up so that it only feeds my outdoor faucets. It's an old green fiberglass...

    $100 Survey

    Thought I'd share this with you. A couple of months ago my wife got a call that we were picked for a survey. And that they would pay us $100 to answer some questions. They were to call back when I was home from work. Naturally skeptical, I asked what the hitch was, was the $100 in the form...

    I figured it out

    I finally figured it out. What CUT stands for. I didn't want to ask for fear of being labled stupid. So I've been blindly skimming over term thinking it was a brand name I hadn't heard of. I've figured out probably all the other other ab.s used here, but that was a new one. Is there a...

    Rust protection of hand tools

    This is off topic but I know folks here will have some good ideas. What should I use to protect my hand tools in my garage. They seem to rust up while your looking at them. I've tried WD-40 but this seems to only postpone it. I've also used a product called phospho that I would only use on...

    Lights stay on - mud in fuse box

    Last weekend I was on tractor when I noticed the lights were on. Switch was off. I turned switch several times and turned ignition key on and off and even put key in and out. Lights stayed on. I finally pulled fuse for obvious reasons. (Lights went off with fuse pulled.) When I opened door...

    Thanks.

    Just a thank you to all who have posted to this forum. I've been at TBN for a month now but ignored the safety forum, figuring it would be boring, and not have info I needed. But it has the most important information of all forums, and most actually very interesting. I'm always careful with...

    Trading in Loader

    I have a 4200 with loader, 400 hrs, collar shift, that I'm thinking about selling or trading in this year or next and moving into a ten series. I'll probably go with 4210. Basically I'm looking to move up, not in capacity, but to hydrostatic. I was going to ask dealer about transferring 420...

    Sod Cutter

    A yaer ago some one posted looking for a sod cutter. Responses were few and the most helpful was go rent one. I have lots of beds to put in. I won't do them all in one weekend and don't want to "go rent one" every time I want to put in a new garden or flower bed. And I've tried loader which...

    tractor seat separation

    I have a JD 4200 that I've had to leave outside for most of its 3 year life. The seat separated from its back and bottom. The back I think is plastic, the bottom I suspect is reinforced witrh metal. But basically the vinyl and foam separated as a unit from the shell. I tried to glue it back...

    tire slips on rim

    I've been picking up some heavy loads of wet sand with FEL lately and noticed a spinning sound up front when backing up and going nowhere. I can't see what's happening but I think left wheel is actually spinning inside the tire, with tire firmly anchored in sand. Can this happen? It seems to...
