Anyone know of an aftermarket belt for the 2315 mower??? I know the 2325 is a b111 and that is what i bought last time, however it is a bit long.

May be partially due to the rarity of this mulching mower deck ( uses 3 long blades and 3 shorter ) and the fact the Canadian dollar is so poor right now, but i just paid $82.50 EACH ( just replacing the 3 longer ones ) for new blades! They are extremely heavy duty, however the price seems...

Wanting to get a wood chipper and curious how the GC would handle it? Looking at a Wallstein 42s which will handle up to 4" trees.

I have noticed that my new GC1710 doesn't seem to start like my GC2310 did. I find I have to hold the glow plugs on WAY longer than my old one ( in warm weather ) and when it does start, it does so with a pretty good puff of black. My buddy at work has the exact same 2015 GC1710 and it acts the...

Has anyone noticed their Gc17xx has a really stiff throttle ? I had a Gc2310 which the throttle was smooth but my new 1710 is really stiff and getting worse. My dealer says it is normal but it's not. It does not seem like the cable but the linkage. Maybe I need to lube the linkage or loosen the...

Got a call from my dealer. There is a recall on my GC1710 CB65 backhoe. Saying it is a recall on the valves? Anyone hear anything about it and what is wrong ? :confused:

I have always used AMSoil in my GC2310. Now that I have a GC1710 Teir4 Engine, I thought I would ask Amsoil what they think. They said: Engine - we recommend Heavy duty diesel and marine (AMEQT) Hydraulics Universal tractor and transmission hydraulic fluid ( ATHQT) Front Diff Same product...

I found out my new GC1710 does not come with rubber stabilizer pads anymore. And they are not cheap from Massey ( hundreds of dollars ). As well, I heard that the new CB65 backhoe has a spot for a factory Massey mechanical thumb. Could not find a picture or part number online though. Going to...

Going to be trading in my beloved GC2310 on a 2015 GC1710 or GC1720. I can't help but notice, the 2015 seems "beefier" and has much better loader and backhoe pins, loader hydraulic hoses (hidden in frame ), backhoe bucket replaceable teeth and a few other refinements than the 2013/14 model year...

Other than the 2.5HP and bit more hydraulic flow, is there anything else different between the GC1710 and GC1720? Is it just through RPM's? Injector pump? Wondering if the difference is noticeable for the extra 1K. Thanks

Recently my loader GC2310 joystick when cold, is stiff when raising or lowering. After I work it a bit it loosens up and is normal. I store it in doors when not in use so the elements is not an issue. I lubed the knuckles so that is also not an issue. Any thoughts ? :confused:

Well, finally blew my first hose on my 2006 gc2310. It was the 3 pt hitch/backhoe hose. Looks like it wore thru by rubbing and got pinched. Will need to route it differently. Off to Goodall for a new one, except it is saturday and they are closed.... :( Figured I would fix the leak on the...

Does anyone know where to get replacement or aftermarket mower blades ? I have a 54" midmount mulch mower for my GC2310. It takes 2 per spindle, but I think one per spindle would work if they have more of a typical mulch pitch ( as these are straight ). They work ok, just not REAL happy with the...

I changed all my oil in my 2310 at 50 hours, but because I am fussy am going to change the fluids again at 125 hours. Question I have... I am switching to AMSOIL in engine and hydro/tranny but am wondering how to drain ALL permatron out of hoe/bucket rams ??? I know it compatible with permatron...

I have a LandPride 1050 tiller that I just bought and MIGHT have one hour on it. Last night while tilling DIRT I noticed the shaft was not turning. Thinking I broke a shearbolt I discovered the main tine shaft was broke in the middle ! This is a pretty thick shaft too, I have no clue why it...

Hopefully this will be a good post.... I am thinking is it worth upgrading to a GC2610 ? I saw one today, and the new platform and loader control is an improvement except it is all plastic. It does have more HP ( although, I am sure it is because of the 3000 rpm ). I like the new foot controls...

Hi, I am buying a new Landpride tiller in the next day or so. I have the option of the 50" forward RTA1050 or 50" reverse RTR05 tiller. I will be tilling garden and some sod but mostly areas that have been cleared of brush, so there will be some small roots etc... Which tiller should I go with...

Hi, Does anyone know where to find Massey paint codes or at least something showing what colors the equipment is.I am doing some work to my '06G C2310 and would like to know the rollbar, front bumber and mower deck colors. The black on the rollbar does not look quite black ? Anyway, if anyone...

Hi folks, Looking for a tiller and would like some advice. Looking at the King Kutter XB 48" ( for subcompacts ) OR the Bush Hog 48". Both around 400Lbs. I like the Massey brand but kinda pricey. Not sure what would work best weight wise and width wise. As well, being in Alberta, Canada I am...

Hi, Taking my 2006 unit in for warranty work for some minor leaks and in my opinion excessive hoe pin slop. Are they any updates I should get them to perform or anything else anyone can think of ? After the warranty is toast, the bills can get expensive, so I want to them to perform anything...

Hi folks, Quick question about trailering a 2310. I just bought a 77"x14' tandem trailer to haul my unit. It does fit, but does not allow me to lower the backhoe boom onto the deck ( unless I swing it to the side and then lower it ) Is it best to lower the boom in transport, or is keeping it up...

I know this is a Massey thread, but I have a 2310 and looking for a decent but not too expensive tiller. I found a Jinma tiller on Ebay. The price of them are a THIRD to HALF of the cost of a new massey or equivelant brand. I bleiev they are a chinese build unit. I wonder if they would stand up...

Looking for some advice on what size of tiller to get for my 2310. Is it better to go a little smaller and have the hp or slower and go bigger? Soil is pretty good here, but there is some clay. Will also be using it to prepare the soil where I have used a brush mower, so there will be some small...

Hopefully these are just little bugs to be worked out of the tractor, but I have noticed my backhoe is leaking oil from the main lever manifold. LOOKS like it is leaking from the bottom of the manifold, they are round fittings with a "rubber" cap or plug on them, they are tight to the body but...

I noticed lately that when I raise my mower, the one arm lifts and then the other. Same when I lower it. They don't raise at the same time. It never used to be a problem. I only have 40 hours on the machine. Any ideas ? As well, how high do most you you cut your grass? The is a sticker on the...

Greetings, I was wondering if anyone can tell me the height/width of a 2300 ROPS... the reason I ask is that I HATE my 2310 ROPS ! I have a lot of trees and it always rubbing on branches and such. As well, it is JUST an few centimeters or a 1/4 inch ( for my American friends ) to high for my...

Does anyone know where a person can get different backhoe buckets? Such as an 8" or smaller for trenching or a 16" for the bigger jobs. As well, what about a toothbar for the FEL ? Does it actually help ? I live in Canada so if anyone knows of any dealers up here that would help on...

Greetings, I have about 50 hours on my new toy. I have used the hoe a fair bit and have noticed a fair bit of play in the boom ( side to side ). Seems to have the play on the single ram ( for side to side ) and the main boom ram. I can't remember how much play there was when it was new. Do the...

Greetings, I am looking to buy a midmount for my baby ( gc2310 ). I have always used a mulch mower and would like to know anyone who has the 54" mulch mower and what they think of it. It is an enclosed unit ( no side discharge ) and uses 6 blades. My previous JD mower was a 54" with a mulch kit...
