I'm trying to figure what the markup is on a $2,000 Cub Cadet at a fairly good sized dealer. The dealer owes me from a previous deal that he screwed up on. I'm thinking I might have to spend more and get the machine rather than haggle with him over how much cash he should return to me on the...

Garden finally dried up enough to give the tiller a try. Expecting rain on and off for the next few days so till while I can. I'm not good at attaching 3 point equipment so that was a struggle - but no more so than it was with my previous Bolens G274. Part of the problem is I don't have good...

The new tractor just can't hack it like the old Bolens G274 it replaced.. I was trying to widen the swale of the drainage ditch and the ground was wet. - She sunk in a little and the 4 wheels would just spin . Eventually I realized that the York rake was digging in behind me even though I had...

Had to mow in 3rd gear low range. Is there an adjustment that will keep it in high or is it just worn out ?

I haven't been able to float the 3pt rake on my new EX3200. Disappointed because I could on the Bolens G274 that it replaced. Nothing in the operator's manual - and the dealer suggested turning the control nob all the way off. Tried that but still no float. This is a pain because the 300'...

To add to my stable of 128's and the CCY EX3200. About 900 hours on it - used by a retired homeowner. Looks like it was well maintained. The mower deck vibrates a little more than I am used to so I'll check the blades to see if they are balanced - or maybe just throw a new set on. Other than...

What should the price difference be ? Compact tractor with loader that goes for about $17,000 for the 2011 version. There is no noticable difference in the same model over the 3 years. I can buy a leftover, only 1 or 2 hours on the meter, with new tractor warrantee, and save money. How much...

Just got a new Cub Cadet Yanmar 32 HP and forgot to ask the dealer to weld drag hooks on the bucket. My old machine is a Bolens G274 and I used the hooks a lot. I don't have electricity on my "farm" and it's a 2 mile drive to take the tractor where they could be welded. I'm thinking of just...

How critical is the HP rated for the tiller on the low side ? The 5' tiller I just bought says it needs 25 HP. Knowing the tractor ratings are a little flakey and my compact (Bolens G275) is 20+ years old, I figure I'm right around that. My plan would be to just not utilize the full depth of...

Just received a service manual for Bolens G274. I was hoping to find the fix for my non-operative PTO "feathering control". No mention of it. I'm still in the dark as to why it has no effect when moved.

Some examples: New Holland T4000F Switchable 540/1000 rpm PTO allows you to run a variety of implements. The PTO operates independently of the tractor driveline. Hydraulic servo-assist PTO engagement provides for low-effort PTO engagement with feathering capability. Permco PTO controls Kicks...

Bolens G274 (new to me) - I have an operator's manual but I can't seem to get the feathering control to operate. Unfortunately there must have been a design change between printing and manufacture. The directions talk about a dash switch, a dash lever, and another lever down by the driver's left...

Thursday I went to a Tractor Supply Store about 40 minutes away and bought a post hole digger with auger, a 5' wide tiller, and a 5' wide rake. I put the PHD & auger in the back of my small pickup and told them I'd be back the next day with a trailer for the other 2 items. I was treated pretty...

So two of us recently bought G274's. Mine came with a NAPA 21521 oil filter and the other with a NAPA Gold 1334. My local NAPA dealer said they were not the same application. I did a little searching and found my 21521 has American threads ( 3/4 - 16 ) while the 1334 has metric threads which...

Recently purchased Bolens G274. The owner's manual that came with it says it has an Isuzu 3AE1 engine but the only name (on the valve cover) I see on it is Iseki. The loader frame and hoses block my view of where the serial # is supposed to be located. Anybody have any clue as to what I have...
