I do have a heavy rear multi-angle blade - maybe I will swap that out to try to do some angled blade leveling/grading. I have been pulling the rake square/perpendicular to the tractor thus far. Thank you all for the help.

Thank you for the tip, I have had the rake square/perpendicular with the tractor. When you angle the rake, do I need to set one gauge wheel lower than the other?

Hi all, I've had an LR1684 for two years now and have been working to level out my beach - I recently hauled in 50 yards of clean sand and added a set of gauge wheels to the landscape rake with the idea being it would provide an equal depth of cut without following the contours of the land...

When you say they self center do you mean it would move the blade once you take your hand off the remote? If so, that seems not desirable?

bdhs that’s exactly how mine work. That’s why I was questioning why anyone wouldn’t want that extra float detent position?

I only have float remotes. Price aside, what are the use cases where you’d want a double acting rear remote over a float rear remote? thank you.

Shoes vs not always a big debate, especially if you don’t have fancy custom fabricated ones. Sorry I’m not much help. I’m also in the UP.

That’s disappointing that they’re trying to make you pay while it’s under warranty. Are you able to view the fuel separators, or have a sample of the fuel analyzed? I was thinking there is a code for water in fuel.

Corn and soybeans obviously!

I ended up with the L4479 due to the weight savings (300lbs)

I thought I wanted a 40 horse and ended up with a 60 horse L6060 because I wanted a front mid PTO driven blower and also the bigger loader lift capacity. The extra cash hurt a lot and I smile every time I start the tractor. I did also drive myself wild trying to decide between the “utility”...

The utility version (L4479) showed up and it is a beast! Looking forward to trying it out this winter.

10-4. Guess I’ll find out. Let’s go!

Would you use the skid shoes with snow? How about on concrete with snow?

Yeah, both the RB and the RBT can be offset. I think I’m going to go with the RBT3986 with one cylinder for angle and I can always add more cylinders later if necessary but for snow cleanup the occasional manual offset shouldn’t be a big deal.

Thank you I am going to check the RBT3596 out.

Found an in stock RBT3596 for a pretty good price. Are they really that much better than the RB37 series?

Hi all, Looking to add a rear blade for supplemental snow removal (have a front blower on an L6060) and am eyeing up the RB3796, possibly with the hydraulic angle cylinder. Do you think this will be a good fit for the L6060? I also plan to do some general gravel road maintenance with it as I...

Thanks I think I’ll inquire on it.

Hi all theres a like new : never used woods HBL84-2 listed in my area for $1200 and I’m trying to figure out if that’s a decent price as I didn’t see too much online and I don’t think woods makes that model anymore? It looks heavy and like it has a manual offset. It’s go on the back of my...

As much as it sucks, at least it wasn’t something simple.

A bush hog carry all? Got a link?

Yeah, these are both front blowers with heated cabs.

I’m going to go with the utility version and if I’m unhappy with it this winter will trade it in on the commercial version. I am attracted by the additional 140 impeller rpm of the utility version as well as the 360lbs weight savings as well as that the L6060 is at the top of the power rating...

I wonder if a molex connector became disconnected somewhere.

$2k difference - L6060 I’ll try to figure out how to update my profile. 200” of snow annually and yes I have a loader/bucket that I’ll have to remove.

That last part is the crux of the dilemma. If you have to slow down with a larger unit are you really better off? Especially since the fan is only 2” bigger.

Yes. Mid-PTO driven front blowers.

Here are the two model specs side by side:

Hello if you have a 62hp tractor (L6060) with 53hp at the pto would you rather operate a utility snowblower rated for 20-60hp at the PTO or a larger, heavier commercial snowblower rated for 35-80p at the PTO? cut widths are the same but the commercial has a bigger fan and auger and several...

I am not brand loyal and respect that you like huskies. If you’re interested in checking out a Stihl the ms400 is a nice sized powerful saw. Also the ms462 and ms500i. All three are their pro line saws and spendy.

Have an L6060 with mid PTO and front PTO driven blower. Recently saw a similar JD and the blower was hydraulic and powered by a rear PTO power pack. That must be JD’s solution and I was slightly confused as to why they didn’t do a mid PTO as you can’t hang a rear blade off the back. Does the...

Hey thanks for taking the time to reply. Makes sense and I appreciate it.

Are you all leaving the chain loose when in the down position to accomplish this?

That makes sense. Thank you.

I also noticed the work master had a quieter cab.

Hello, I have an L6060 and I also got to spend a few hours in the seat of a Workmaster 75 with the power shuttle transmission today. I love the L6060 and also enjoyed the Workmaster very much. I like learning as much as I can so I am posting here. I realize the Workmaster seems to be in a...

This is my favorite one I’ve seen yet! Do you also use a quick hitch?

I am looking at the big tool rack and their promo material claims they've had no returns in 7 years. I figured there had to be at least one ornery person not happy with their big tool rack so I looked into their return policy. "Returns will only be accepted within 14 days of the receipt of your...

Lack of fuel, air, or spark.

So that the tines still dig in but not as deep? The idea being they will help pick up the rocks a little? Better than flipping it upside down with the tines pointed upward? Thank you.

Hi all, Recently got first tractor (L6060) and have been using it to clear our beach which on the lake side is mostly sand and on the grass side is mostly dirt. After back-blading to tear up most of the grass and roots I started dragging a drag/chain harrow with the tines in the down/dig...

Bumping it back up

Any recommended brands?

Hi all I ended up with an L6060 since there was one on the lot and I liked it very much.

Bumping this back up - anybody?

The documented specs on the L6060 HSTC cab height are 92.5" which leaves me 2" to spare on my 8' garage bay. For the specs, do they use the tallest tire option to document the cab height? For example, should I expect the top of the cab to be at 92.5" when selecting the REAR - 17.5L-24 R4 Titan...

Hi all, I've been searching around but not minding much info on the differences between the L4479 and L4474 besides price. Anyone have additional info to share? When you select L4474 (commercial) the hydraulic up/down deflector option disappears so I suspect it's got built-in rotation and...

The information shared thus far about mid-PTO and standalone splitter has been quite valuable and I appreciate the time everyone's taken thus far to share with me.

Sounds good I will check it out - thanks for the reply. The more I think about it the more that makes sense to have a standalone splitter.

sounds good. The ice clearing was an idea not a requirement. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. We get 18+“ of ice and the rink is right near shore. I have no idea if 40hp is enough I’m just guessing. We do have a side by side and I agreee!

Hi all, Never owned a tractor before but recently built a home on a lake that's tucked away down a 1/3 mile private gravel road (note that I consider the house driveway and the 1/3 mile gravel road to be separate) and each day when I drive by the tractor dealer on my way home I find myself...
