Slip clutch arrived from Agrisupply and I installed it on my 60" Modern mower. This clutch has the groove in the shaft for the safety circlip unlike the one I'd seen on Ebay. It's made by Eurocardan. Any advice on clutch useage/adjustment are welcome. I plan on at least covering the...

I'm looking for a new way to take care of pine needles. I've raked up and burned in the past but was wondering if a shredder could make them nto somekind of garden mulch. Does any one have a good way to deal with this? snoboy

This summer is I'll be doing a lot of 3 point implement use. The backhoe is off and I'll be doing a lot of rotary cutting, chipping, box blading etc. I have no experience with the 3 pt. quick change setups so I'm wondering who makes the best design and what are the pros and cons of each. Thanks...

OK I went the Tytan route. Had been tossing the Jinma's around for a couple years now and then I saw the Tytan and liked it's design a little better. I know it's more money but the price is still reasonable IMHO. I like the rotating chute and the feed roller drive system. The feed roller is belt...

I have had the snowblower installed all winter long on the back of my Branson 4020 until this past weekend. I took off the PTO snow blower and installed the backhoe, now the backhoe does not seem to have the power that it should. It is sorta slow to respond and just seems weak. Any body else...

Does anyone have experience doing this and if so any words of wisdom. My project is a 4 foot wall apx. 40' in length. I have a Branson backhoe with thumb.

Local guy sells them @ $299.00 for the unit, $120. for 9", and $140 for the 12" auger. Is this a fair price?

Does anyone know of this Cenex protection program? If you do can you shed some light on it for me?

I had some time to kill today so I stopped by the local NH dealer and asked him what brand of chipper he sells. He said Woods but then said I think I have another product you might be interested in. He took me to the back lot where he has 5 new Jinma chippers in the crates fresh off the boat. He...

I got no responses on my spring service thread so I'll ask outright. Has anybody else done the steering fluid service, screen filter cleaning and fluid change? Just wondering if I'm the only bozo **** enough to do it? snoboy

OK this weekend I finished changing out my fluids. Replaced hydraulic fluid with Cenex Maxtron THF (synthetic blend) which has outstanding cold weather specs., but is an all season fluid. I used the factory Kukje hyd. filter and cleaned the pre-filter screen as well. I did the front axel and...

I spent summer digging and running at 1400 rpm alot for dirt work then spent the winter blowing snow at 2600 rpm PTO speed. I changed...

Whats the strongest, longest lasting grease? I have been using Amsoil Heavy Duty w/ Moly. Its OK but I was wondering if something else will keep the hoe tight for a good 8 hrs. Or am I just asking too much from any grease? Thanks...snoboy

I was wanting to install a couple of Fram type sure drains on my Branson 4020 tractor. Does any body know the thread pitch of these drain plugs? I could wait till my next oil change and measure the plug but I would like to have them in advance so I can put them in during the oil change.

Please read my post up in oils and lubricants. Thanks

How often are we supposed to change the hyd/trans fluid. My manual says every 2 yrs. or 300 hrs. How often are you guys changing fluid. I will never hit 300 hrs. in 2 years, but waiting that long seems like too long. I dont know how much wear this stuff gets. Seems like it gets a good workout...
