Here's my setup, it works pretty good. 2 plastic mortar pans and a couple of wood blocks, a gutter scoop and broom that I clean as much as possible before bringing in to my heated garage. The pans catch most of the water. I just have to mop up a small puddle usually. If it's above freezing, I...

2019 2025r. The SCV valve for the raise and lower function is suddenly very stiff. It loosens a little as it warms up, but is still stiffer than normal. The curl function has the normal resistance. It feels like maybe an o-ring that has swelled or gotten out of a groove. I tried spraying with...

I use this pooper scooper and a wheeled trash can to pick up sticks. I also use a front mounted dethacher that works pretty well.

You need that tractor!.... In 1976 we bought our first home on 1 acre, 1/2 acre of lawn. The next year I bought a 16 hp. Wheelhorse 8-speed garden tractor with a 48" mower deck and 48" plow which served me well for the next 34 years. Especially during the blizzard of 1978 when we had 3' of snow...

It sounds to me, since it comes right back up after disengaging the MMM, that it is a problem with the MMM, such as a seizing bearing as it heats up. I would try turning the mower by hand prior to mowing, and then see if you can still turn it when the rpms drop. Or, check the temperature of the...

'49 Ford, 3 on the column, flathead 8. I paid $50 for it in 1960.Similar to this one.

All done! 8-50# bags of pea stone. used the drive over bracket from my mower deck after I installed the lock n’go to hang some suitcase weights if ever needed(I doubt it). 2-2” PVC tool holders Ready for action!

OK, I went with 6 50# bags of pea stone. Looks like I can fit 2 more. I think I'll bolt a bracket to the back of the box to hang some suitcase weights on also. Ill keep my chains and stuff in the 9" extension tool box. Thanks for the responses.

Well, we have soft water. 😆

I read somewhere that the water adds weight and can’t completely evaporate because it can’t escape once the concrete hardens. Any truth to that? Of course, water only weighs about 7.5 pounds per gallon and I suppose I won’t need more than a gallon, so your idea about future removal sounds good...

Just upgraded to a 2018 2025R with a ballast box. My 2004 2210 went to my son. I added the 9” extension which I am going to use as a tool box to store chains etc. or fill with removable weight if needed. I am going to fill the original box with concrete. Can I just dump the bags in the box...

Yeah, we’re going to keep looking. He‘s contracted the plowing for his home and business for this year, so we’ll wait for a good package deal that fits his needs better. Missed out on two deals just today. They’re asking $21k, and the dealer quoted around $24k for a new one. The backhoe could...

Thanks for your replies, I managed to contact the selling dealer in PA and verified that it was a clean sale. One minor warranty repair to SCV valve. Still deciding if it's right for my son. It has the loader and backhoe for 21k, but he needs a mower deck and snowblower. The backhoe, while...

Thanks, I should have mentioned that I have a call into them, but can't get through to a human and I'm going to look at the 1025 in 30 minutes.

I'm looking at a JD 1025r, with loader and backhoe with 200 hours, on facebook marketplace. Is there any way to check the serial number for issues, either mechanical or financial to avoid any problems? I have the serial number.

That's 50 years as number one in furniture manufacturing (in my mind...)

Can anyone identify what is happening with this tree? I'm not sure if it's an oak or maple (until and unless it grows some leaves). I'm also seeing some of that rust colored stains on some other trees in the area. It looks like it has some kind of fungal disease.

Mine was built in Dubuque in 1970. I don't have it any more, but I do have a manual in a pdf. If I had your email address I can email it to you.

JD 2210, Can I attach the loader with the quick hitch still installed? I think we are done with the snow for the most part. I would like to remove the snowblower and attach the loader now, but would like to keep the quick hitch installed just in case I need to attach the snowblower or plow...

Upgraded to the air assist for $42 with a 20% off coupon and $30 credit for the bad cylinder. I'm happy with it so far. It held the pressure for over 16 hours, more than enough for my use. I can see a few jobs that the air assist could be handy. Thanks for all the responses.

I bought a HF 12 ton shop press with the idea of clamping 8 layers of wood to glue it. The glue dries in about an hour. My problem is the press loses all the pressure in aout 15-20 minutes or less. I thought it should last until I release the valve. Is it defective? or is that normal? and I...

Info on Pro-Seed overseeder I bought a Pro-Seed 3 pt. over seeder this week. It's a discontinued brand, made in England, but it's like new and as a homeowner I probably won't need any parts for a while. Anyone familiar with this unit? Anyone have an operator's manual? It's about 48"...

Here's what I did, and it's worked pretty well but limits how tight a turn you can make.

Just wondering... when I go down a steep grade with my JD 2210 HST, do I have more braking with higher RPM' s or does it matter? I don't fully understand how the wet braking works, but it would seem that higher RPM's would allow more hydraulic pressure and thus more braking action.

When the snow flies, I remove the 210 loader from my 2210 tractor and store it in the shed until spring (which happens to be the first week of March this year :) .. Over the winter, the lift pistons creep out and the mounting brackets end up on the floor. I then have to jack it up high enough...

Our garage has no floor drain, even though I clean as much snow as I can off my tractor and snowthrower, it always leaves a big puddle on the garage floor. A google search turned up some containment systems for about $300, but there were several negative reviews. I made my own for around $40...

OK, it worked, but the PVC flexed and chattered against the impeller a little. I replaced it with black iron pipe and it works beautifully. I need to move the bolt heads to the inside of the pipe and then I think I can use it on the blacktop driveway too. I'll start a new thread with my next...

I need to clear a path about 50' across my front lawn to let the dogs "do their business" when it snows deep. Invariably, I always scalp a few spots when I hit a dip even though I'm trying to keep it an inch or two above the lawn. I cut a piece of 2" PVC pipe and slit it lengthwise on my table...

JD 2210 FEL, 54" MMM, 46" Snowthrower, 54" Snow Blade This replaced my JD 400 Industrial backhoe/loader and 1977 Wheelhorse C-160. Forced to sell the JD 400 by my neighbors who complained that I was storing construction equipment against town ordinance. The 2210 is better suited to my present...
