Had the same tractor and sold it a few years back. Was a great hay tractor and I never had any of the issues you described. Only problems were the starter went out around 200 hours and the neutral position sensor failed around 250 hours. Otherwise it ran strong for us for quite a few years...

The new “Lamborghini” is a Deutz Agrotron 9340 TTV. Top of the line for SDF

Free way to get around it is to put the gear selector in L and manually go to the highest gear. It disables afm or dfm and drives like normal.

I have a big part of my family in northern Michigan who are loggers and run Husqvarna only. Between the stihl 290 and the husqvarna 460 rancher me and my dad own I prefer the husqvarna

There is always a point where you “could” consider it losing money as in value compared to your expected value, but leaving it on the field is actual lost money. And people like some of us that have cattle will feed it there to at least get some feed value out of hay that may be unfit for the...

Good job getting it off. I worked on one for DAYS on our old brush hog. With heat, pounding, prying, impacts, every darn thing we could think of and it didn’t move an inch. So instead of taking it off to tighten down the bolts holding the gearbox we just welded the gearbox solid and welded the...

Mine was on the same shifter. I did just replace the sensor and everything worked afterwards. No adjustments or anything else. Hope ya get yours figured out

All I can say is wow I am glad I didn’t drive an old Yanmar home from the dealership it would have been an 8 hour ordeal

I had one that came with a clutch so I am no help. I would always have a shear pin or clutch for all pto implements though

We baled ideally around 15% and 4x4 were about 650 apiece. Our baler was a massive PITA though so I sold it and got a 4x5 and another small square baler. 4x5s of Timothy and clover mixed ran right at 1000 lbs.

I don’t know about the vinegar and calcium buildup but wouldn’t using a water softener in line before the tank eliminate this issue long term

Appears to be a Massey Harris model 37 2 bottom plow. Sold in 2 or 3 bottom in the mid 50s

I use Ike’s total pest control it’s 7.9% bifenthrin and works like a charm. And a gallon covers over 10 acres

Don’t know if this is the same but I had a 2018 farmall 50a. Was a good hay tractor for the 300 or so hours i owned it. Only issues I really had was a neutral sensor and starter both around 50 hours of me buying. Worked a 3 bottom plow, disc, and tiller at times too but it spent most of its...

I used to cut with a 6 foot with a 21 pto hp tractor and it worked alright, then I went to a 45 pto hp with the same brush hog and it cut so much faster

That’s neat that it can move itself to park. My question is can it pull the Dodge/Ram pickup that broke down on the way to camp?

Not from Florida but here in Michigan if your a farmer best to just not ask for permission and do what ya need. And do it right. Only way anyone complains is if the landowner is a jack*** about it

Sure the beans are easy 1 can dark kidney beans drained 1 can light kidney beans drained 1 can black beans drained 1 can navy beans drained 1 medium size yellow onion diced 4-5 strips of bacon (sub pulled pork or chopped brisket if you have some leftovers to use) 10-12 ounces of bbq sauce 1...

I started with a Walmart clearance special. It was awful to smoke anything on and became relegated to smoking over direct charcoal when we would dogs, burgers, or chicken by the pond out back. From there the wife bought me a Masterbuilt electric smoker. Did a decent job of cooking better bbq...

Ear plugs! Same as I use when my wife starts talking about Amazon shopping. Sorry I’m no help

I sometimes Thank god I don’t live in California

I had a L2501 and outgrew it quickly. Purchased a Case 50a and outgrew that over a few years. Sold the Kubota at a loss of 400 dollars with around 100 hours on it. Sold the case at a loss of 700 dollars with 350 hours I had put on it. Neither tractor owed me a thing when I got rid of them but I...

More they were there to free up a body to throw and stack hay. Because 5 year old girls that weigh 40 lbs are of no use throwing 55 lb hay bales all day

My daughters were 5 when they “drove” the pickup truck and trailer for small bales. Set it in low gear, 4 low, and tell em keep it in a straight line. After a half mile walk picking up bales go turn it around at the end for her and walk back picking up the next row.

He’s got the belt on so there’s a positive. My son was 2 when he drove our 50a case tractor baling hay for the first time. With me standing on the side step with him of course. And he only baled the last 100 yards of the last row but he was in heaven. Yes that seat switch was bypassed at the...

I would probably drive it for a few hundred feet if ya hadn’t already and stop with the stem at the top. Just let air out til it’s at 16 or so. I can’t imagine a ton of rimguard would come out but could be wrong. Either way it’s just beet juice so no harm in a small amount of spillage to get...

Definitely sounds over filled

Yeah, drive ahead until the valve stem is at the top and it should be good to let out some air

Still working on selling a case 50a. And waiting to hear from the dealer. He thought mid to end of july it would be in.

Pay off debts, college fund for each kid, and buy the wife some fake hammers... then carry on as always

Went back to check out the Deutz again and love it. Have a few more weeks of waiting til mine arrives.

Does anyone have any idea where i can find specs on this Grain Drill. Wondering how much the machine weighs as im trying to lift one on a trailer with a loader tomorrow. Cannot use ramps but will have a 1500 lb capacity loader available

The 5080d is about 4k more off the lot in my area. But considering its got radials, tires filled, block heater, fenders, and a few other nice things i can justify the difference.

It is next to the dash. Theres a little lever you twist to release it and it moves back towards you far enough to hit the gear selector. I found it comfortable locked in about 4 inches above the gear selector. We will likely have it within 3 weeks he said. Ill take it out in the woods with the...

We only have gear tractors on our farm so anyone here can drive it. AC seemed great i turned it down because I was more listening to the noise levels in the cab but it stayed cool enough. Comes with 3 standard remotes. 3 point is just like we are used to. The control is a little lower than id...

Darn i wish id have seen this before i went. Lol all i have is the speed sticker from the window. But i dont do all my work in km/h. Went to the dealer and tested the Deutz out and loved most everything about it. The area in the cab around the buddy seat was pretty cramped and the door doesn't...

Deutz dealer called and said they finally got the 5080D in and its already spoken for. But hes going to let me drive it tonight. Excited to finally get in a smaller model than the 5120G premium. That was an exceptional tractor to me but way more than I need or can justify on these 60 acres. Will...

Our soil is fairly heavy clay. I have about a 3 day window to work it where its not too wet not too dry. That said ive pulled a 3x16 with my 50A in our back field which is a little more loamy and it was able to handle it pretty well. I do sell a ton of small squares of horse hay off the field...

Jotted down a side by side comparison of the two tractors not figuring dealer network or price and there are big positives and negatives each way. This only makes the decision tougher. Waiting for a trade in quote from the Case dealer and selling my kubota L2501 this weekend. Hope to figure out...

Thanks for the response. That is kind of where i am leaning right now especially with some of what I've read about new case tractors. Got hay done yesterday and a free schedule tomorrow so I should be able to get into the Deutz dealer. Looking forward to operating one finally. This will be a do...

Are the quality control issues anything that should make me worry about it being my last tractor purchase for 20 years? I know the case ih 50a i have needed the clutch sensor replaced and just yesterday had the seat sensor light come on and had to disconnect and reconnect. Small issues but its...

That 25 mph is alright. I make one trip a year to my mothers farm to cut her hay. Usually by trailer but i don't have one big enough to haul either of these tractors which should weigh in around 10k with loader and rear weights or filled tires. Ive never seen a Deutz at work but the specs look...

Thanks for the response. I have a farmall 50a open station and its been good aside from the clutch sensor i had to replace at about 220 hours which took probably 8 phone calls 2 dealer visits and several hours of online searching to rule out all the other potential issues first. Trading that and...

Not sure much about the Deutz. Haven't been able to get to the dealer when they have been open. Been cutting hay and kids softball games all week. The Case 75a is a fairly basic cab tractor.

Looking at both of these tractors for my last tractor purchase for a while. Will have a loader and be used to make hay and any chores around the farm. Seems like the Deutz may be a little overbuilt and last forever. Pros and cons? Any thought? Edit: Both are cab and loader. Both dealers are 10...

I have a L2501 and am selling for a larger tractor. I have liked it but like you say lowest loader capacity. Very reliable tractor and great for bush hogging and land maintenance in general
