Here's some photos. Getting a little bit more efficient with the grapple. Was able to pull up three and a half to 4 in stump of a tree. Currently have 40 hours on my tractor.

I now have about 32 hours on my Branson 2515R. My soil condition I would for the most part view as soft. Mostly sand. I did some grading with my tractor. I found when hitting some roots like 3" plus. That the 24HP engine in the low gear (low gear is really slow, like i might go back in time...

It's pretty cool. It's way out my price range though.

yea, I decided against it. I don't want to abuse my FEL.

I'll check that out

Actually, I actually did think about doing that and then adding a snap block getting a little bit more mechanical leverage. Thanks for the info my gut feeling was stump bucket one be that useful but I don't know what I don't know

Was wondering is a stump bucket worth getting for a tractor? I have a root grapple. Even when I tried to pick up small stumps out of the ground like 2" to 3" Diameter. I still lift my rear end off the ground. My rear tire have liquid ballast (water) and 300 LBS Boxblade. Would stump bucket do...

I'm into 17 hours with my tractor. I would say the first 8 to 10 hours is basically learning how to be effective with it. (though I think I got a ways to go.) Even when I come across a 2" to 3" stump in the ground from a previous time when I cut the sapling down. I try to lift it out of the...

That's a good thought. I'll see if he'll deliver the manual top link. That came with the machine.

Connor tractors on the corner of 326. I highly recommend him. He's definitely not high pressure salesman very professional he went out on the other dealers. He's not the only one that sells that line in Ocala but he's only one that I would use.

I finally made my selection. I bought a Branson 2515r, with grapple, boxblade, rear remote and hydraulic toplink. They will deliver it this coming Wednesday

I definitely going shuttle shift if I purchase branson 2515. Most forklifts and telehandler I have used have been either manual or power shift

I just got a quote. The CX2510 with backhoe and 3rd function will cost me $25,700.00 plus tax. The Branson 2610H with backhoe and 3rd function will cost me $25,600.00 plus tax. The Branson 2515R with backhoe and 3rd function will cost me $25,700.00 plus tax with a dealer rebate. I think I'm...

thanks

Grass most the time 95%, some saplings less than 3/4". Grass would be less than 12" worst case scenario. during growing season I tried to mow once a week providing weather allows me. With my 21 hp Zero turn mower it takes me 3 to 5 hours (If grass is tall goes real slow) Takes 3 to 5 gallows of...

If can use a flail mower, would be nice. If 25hp works that's fine. Though I wonder if mid mount mower would be better. Boxblade work & mowing is more important than FEL capacity

If I up the engine hp to say 30hp would that make a big enough difference?

Thank you your info is always really good. Really appreciate it.

Ck2610 is 1k more in my area. Though I have thought about ck3510 to. I would have enough pto power run anything I would need

About 1k to 2k more 2515R $18,500.00 2515 $19,500.00

For me probably about $500

I will discuss a little bit about the elephant in the room. The one dealer I prefer deals with kioti, branson. And because of the acquisition by TYM of Branson. He is also a TYM dealer. Now he told me during the pandemic kioti did better with having parts and much easier to approve warranty work...

The property have is 3 acres. Most likely that will not change. There may be opportunity someday to buy the four acres next to me since it's in Trust. But cannot base my decision on that because cuz it's not certain. I have approximately 1,200 ft of County unmaintained Road which severely needs...

At the moment I can't trailer it. That will change in the future. Though I'm seriously considering Branson. I've got 2 dealerships with in 20 miles of me. That are both rated well by reviews. I only have one kioti dealer though I really like the kioti

I'm considering one of the following tractor and was wondering have experienced with these tractors. Cx2510 is around 2200 weight Tym t264 is around 1880 weight Branson 2610h is around 2000 I know weight of a tractor is real important for things like grading and stability. I'm also concern...

Yeah it is. It also cost him , i think 70k it is a Bobcats

Yeap, I agree. My friend up the street removed one that was about 36" . He had 6 ton mini excavator. He could not pick it up he could only dragged it out by flipping it over. If my memory serves m How do you like your tractor over all?

Thanks for the info. I can use all the helpful tips. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Thank you!

I lived in Travelers Rest, SC. I would take road trips to Asheville, NC. So our far are from Asheville?

I'm in Florida and mostly sand with little pockets of clay.

I got a friend up the road from me that has 12,000 lbs mini excavator. He had already dug out hug live oak tree. Which dug quick than small tree because lack of tap root. The hard part was getting it out of hole. What size root stumps in your opinion works well with tractor backhoes if given...

We plan to dig 300 square feet of pond. So I'll plenty of dirt to fill in. I'm guessing the root ball will be very heavy. I figured pulling out of hole would be the hardest thing

It been a while since my last post. Realistically is backhoe on tract like ck3510 capable of digging out large stump like a 36"? If not what could it take out realistically? Let's say in 6 hours or less in time I have use for backhoe for other projects. I'm not concern at the moment the fact...

Does anyone have the manual for the 15 series and the bl150 loader?

Update on this post. I was that DK45s on a Sunday. The following day Monday I called that it sold on last Friday. He did not update his His website. Back to the drawing board. Still considering either DK4510 or CK3510, perhaps a Branson 2515R/H or 3515R/H. Looks like I'll buying New.

Randy, So I understand what do you mean by "fuel rail parts leading to runaway" Does mean that the RPM go out of control. I was given a free lawn mower that suddenly the RPM shot thru the roof. I tried throttling down did not work thinking it was some how getting to much fuel. (In hind sight I...

I'm considering buy this used tractor. In had 1129 engine hours. Was wondering if this is a good model? Since its 2008 would it lack the computer electronic for the engine? The dealer says it has been serviced and all the cylinders have been repacked. Here is some info. DK45S w/ KL451 Loader...

Thanks for the info on tractors have no title in Florida. I knew a lot of states don't but was not sure on Fl

Thanks for input. I did stopped a dealer that I like. Looked at some kioti & Branson. Next one on my list will be LS. I'll be on that side of town tomorrow

I'm Looking At MT240E – 40HP. Does anybody have one or similar model and how they like. Is it good on fuel?

If you have followed my other posts you know I'm searching for a tractor. I clicked a facebook ad for a 2018 Kubota Grand L4760. $16,000. I clicked on contact seller and sent email. Right of the bat, The price is to good to be true. Red flag is going off. I already heard the husband died...

Rob, Thank you. Nices pics.

I agree with that. I could by for 3 to 6k zero turn that would be better. But zero turn will not lift, dig, or grade. The fail or finish mower get gives me options. Backup when my zero turn needs repair or does.

My zero turn beat up residential model that my son in law got lawn businesses. It seen abuse. It drink gas like champ. I use close 4 gallons to mow 3 acres

I have about 15 trees. I plan to use the zero turn.(until it dies) just consider finish mower upon death of my zero turn

What was hp scut & cut?

That was very helpful, if I decided to go a SCUT route, do you think it has enough power to handle finish mower even if it's small?

I'm not sure on HST or shuttle. Why do you prefer shuttle? Like to get more insight

I'm glad for this point of view. Thanks

It way been in the plan to do my own maintenance. I do all my own repairs on my zero turn, cars, ect. I try to be self reliant as possible. Of course some time what needs goes beyond my abilities or my equipment

I have been looking for Branson 3515H or 4815H. The dealer here Ocala does both Branson & Kioti. The don't have 3515 or 4815 Right now, but they have 2022 Kioti dk4510m unit. Kioti website. I would have to deal with Regen and more electronic control engine. It is also shuttle shift. The plus for...

Yes, I'm familiar with tym. I'm still think about getting t474 tractor or t494. I was told that they more plastic like for the hood. I could have been told wrong though. I have tym, Branson, LS, Kubuda, John Deere, kioti, New Holland, Bad boy (made by Branson), dealers in my area. Most with in...

I live Ocala, FL. I have 2 dealers I could deal with. I one about 10 miles and one about 60 miles way (Brooksville) Unfortunately, The one that is 60 miles away is the ones the one that's give me the warmest fuzzy feelings. Though I think the on that's closer to me would be fine also. I will...

I have learned from experience that I don't base my decision few bad reports from the BBB. Even reviews on products in general. I can't tell how many times I have read a bad review, but when I read between the lines I find it is customer expectations issue not a product issue. I have bought...

This example does not fit this model that broke in half but to illustrate how company mislead technically with the truth, and yet misleading. See the pic below Lift Capacity 1835. It uses the KL4030 You figure that it's the Lift Capacity to Full Height at Pivot Pins. which would be 98.4" in case...

hope its not out of Warranty :eek:

Thanks, fellow Floridian :)

Thank for the feedback. I'm really New to tractors. Do you think that more HP like 35 or 48 for fuel economy since at that point your not working the engine as hard?

I'm considering purchasing this Branson 2515H tractor? Wondering if anyone has one and what they think about it? Also what type of fuel consumption I would expect? The operation rpms is 2100. It 24hp engine. It nearly 3000lbs in weight.

thanks for the input. I'll take a look into it.

80% of the time it will be on my own property. I do have 1,500 feet unmaintained County Road. From time to time I'll do work on. But don't plan on any commercial work.

Want to find out if anybody has experience getting insurance tractor? One dealer says it'll be about $25 a month to ensure the tractor. But the tractor I'm interested the dealer does not provide insurance. So I'm looking for independent insurance agent that can insure my tractor. So I was...

Thanks

thanks for the input

I'm looking to buy a tractor for the first time. I have been looking around. I have consider Badboy 4025, RK37, RK25. I think I want either T474 or T494. It has the Kukje engine which is mechanical fuel injection. The engine it self does not require all of the computer electronics for it to run...
