Anyone know of a source for a shelled corn cracker? I am looking for a small one that would be hand fed and preferably electric. I am familiar with the high volume ones used when filling a silo or feed truck but I am interested in a small scale one. Any ideas would be appreciated. dsb

I looked at a 2004 2wd M6800 w/cab yesterday. This tractor has the standard 8F/8R w/shuttle and is equipped with a Woods loader. It also has dual remote hydraulic valves. My needs are planting a few acres of food plots annually, mowing, general farm maintenance and snow removal. My questions are...

I stopped by a TSC yesterday and saw the Bad Boy model they carry. I noticed right away the solid front axle. I wonder if that is contributing to the slipping and slidding. Seems like there would be a lot of torgue on that frame with terrain changes. Looks like you need to get into the Lightning...

Was doing grapple work last night and periodically experienced a faint antifreeze smell. Got out and looked underneath a couple of times but didn't see any drips. Engine temp was running normal. Was getting dark so I kept going. When I got back to the shed I raised the dump bed and saw the cap...

We've been cutting up oak for firewood in a timber approx. 5 miles from home. Initially we would saw up everything onsite then load it on a trailer, head home and unload it. It's been hot here and I'm struggling to find time so I decided to take the Toolcat along to load logs that I can cut up...

Like a lot of attachments I've been wondering how one of these would work on the Toolcat. I don't have a pressing need for one but figured I would keep my eye out and if one could be had for a reasonable price I would get it. Well, a recent thread sparked my interest and as luck would have it I...

Yikes! Looks like they are changing the website. I sure hope it is a work in progress. I can't find much and www.toolcat.com no longer works. dsb

I've heard this from time to time. Well, it's -3 degrees this morning here in Northern Illinois and we have 1" of new snow on the ground with up to 5" forecasted. Luckily the winds have calmed down so 5" won't be a big problem. Will need to warm up some before I get the Toolcat out. Doesn't look...

Anyone have any experience with the Yamaha Grizzly 660? I am close to pulling the trigger on a pair of them. Will be used for running around the property, pulling a trailer and taking trips to the various trail systems around the midwest. dsb

Does anyone else crab steer their Toolcat? I find I use it a lot mowing. Don't see anything in the manual about it. I wish it had a designated button for selecting that mode. Also wish it had an option to select rear-wheel only steer. dsb

90\" Mower Been mowing quite a bit with the 72" mower. Does a good job and the Toolcat doesn't seem to have any problem running it even in tall grass. Thinking I need the 90" version. That would give me an additional 9" on both sides keeping the Toolcat further away from the building, trees...

Finally had a chance to run the Toolcat with the 72" mower. Adding an additional strip of foodplots in some CRP ground and the long grasses were not cooperating with the moldboard plow. I set the mowing height to the highest level (5.5") and cut three mower widths. I only went over it one time...

I have numerous thorny honey locust coming up in CRP ground and some multiflora rose in the pasture areas. I've tried cutting the honey locust off at the ground only to find out it grows back, sometimes multiple trees from the same root. So I fabricated a puller to remove them, roots and all...

I have a 46 or 146 loader (mine has the two dump cylinders) on a Deere 4010 diesel. It is currently driven by the rear hydraulic outlets but I've purchased the parts to plumb it in. With the parts, one of the hydraulic lines goes into the replacement hydraulic filter cover but I don't see where...

Been quiet on the Toolcat forum lately so I thought I would throw out some info on my soon to be first service experience. I received a safety notice from Bobcat on the 72" mower. Was surprised it came as a registered letter. Called the dealer and gave them the serial number. They called in the...

I've been sawing trees along fence rows and using the utility grapple to carry them to various ditches. What a great tool for that job. However, I've noticed when dumping that if I get too far into the ditch the brakes will not hold the Toolcat from continuing to roll forward. To maintain my...

I've got a tree/post puller almost fabricated for use on a Toolcat (standard Bobcat attachment). Basically it's a hydraulic pincher attached to the loader. The pincher arms are 2" square steel. I was planning on welding steel teeth on the inside of the pincher arms to grip the tree or post...

From reading in this forum I know there are owners of all the series of Toolcats. If I were to start looking at used Toolcats (hard to come by) are there any specific items I should look out for on the A-Series or B-Series? I'm wondering if I couldn't get into a low hour used one with...

Got behind the wheel of a 5600 Turbo today. Pretty impressive unit. It did not have any attachments on it. The dealer (owner actually) brought it inside to give it a once over then I cruised it around the lot for a while. I was impressed with the 4 wheel steer, very maneuverable. We talked...

Been reading thru all the posts on the various applications for the TC. Although it is probably a stretch ($$$) I keep thinking that a TC would be a great tool for me. In addition to the various tasks I could use the TC for around the property, I need to mow about 30 acres of pasture once or...

I've often thought that if my 2210 had a front mower instead of the mid mower it would be a much better all purpose machine. The front mower would need to ride on it's own set of wheels so it would follow the contour of the ground the same as my F911. The front design would also let me mow under...

I converted a JD 47" 2-stage from a 318/420/430 to my 2210. Long story short I bought the snowblower with the intention of converting it for my F911 but that didn't work out. Although I've wanted a snowblower for some time I just couldn't justify the total cost. This one complete was about a...
