Different than a frig but I had a whole basement dehumidifier that I paid $1700. Three years later the fan went bad and was not replaceable and new unit was $2000. Fortunately an electric motor repair shop fixed the old fan and a 1/2 inch drill motor for about $140. Glad there are still...

It is looking nice.I live in Ohio. Last fall with sealer added it was just at $200 a yard.

I have a 6 foot Bush Hog brand rotary mower. Need to change the gear oil, it is almost yellow, looks like it could have gotten water in it. Sat out all winter uncovered. 80/90 weight gear oil sound correct for new fluid?

Thanks for the quick and helpful information.

I have a Mahindra 4510 with the ML 114 loader. Could also use the braces. Any info you have on the same you can share would be appreciated. thanks

I have found ash to not weather well.

Around here once the tracks etc. are removed they are gone forever. Often turned into bike/walking paths. A good rail system just seems so efficient.

When they clear woods here in Ohio they at times dig a trench, push then in the same and burn them. Some just push into a large pile, let them dry enough and burn them in place when they have a steady breeze to give plenty of oxygen. Here they often use diesel and old tires to help but...

I have been fighting that battle for years. The small ones I cut carefully with a chain saw and later burned in a pile. Once they were dry the thorns actually burned up well. Some of the bigger ones I had a track vehicle with a mulcher type mower start at the top and grind them down to...

I have a 4510. Unsure how close they are but I once had some type of simple clip break and I did not have the front tires pulling. The shop made it a simple cheap fix. Obviously could be other issues.

Just as an update, I used some standard rebar but most was fiberglass rebar. I kept the all thread rod for other things.

I had a 1969 Corvette and a friend had a 70 and they had windshield wipers. They were under a panel at the end of the hood just before the windshield. The panel lifted up and then the wipers engaged.

Thanks for all the replies. Even though it is a nice trailer at a good price I am not going to buy it, just too short and light for my needs.

I have Pella wood windows I wish to install in my lean to attached to my barn. Question 1: The frame wood is not primed on the parts that will be in the wall. Is there a reason for this and would it be OK to prime that area before installation or are they left bare for a reason...

I have a chance to get a Quality Steel 18 foot tandem axle car trailer with winch. I think made in Decatur, IN. It has a steel deck. The axles are both rated at 3500 each for a total of 7000 pounds. I think the trailer with winch could be near 2000 pounds. I would like to carry my...

I used the 3/4 as I had plenty on hand I wanted to use up. Stored inside for years but got rained on once before the house wrap went on. My metal roof is a type of standing seam, there are no visible screws or gaskets. The only thing new is leaf guards on the spouts and snow...

Under the metal roof is 3/4 inch OSB. The inside/underside and under the eaves also is completely vented. On top of the OSB is a snow guard type sticky membrane.

I did put a heavy moisture covering( rubberized or vinyl roofing material) over 2 inches of EPS foam under the concrete. Gravel under all that and the concrete also had a sealer put into the mix. I do not see the moisture inside the lean to, I have not yet installed the two 36 inch...

I have a lean to on my building. Decided to enclose it. Poured a concrete floor. Block on top and then stud walls covered with 3/4 inch plywood and some 3/4 OSB. Covered with house wrap by Carter Lumber Co called R Mor. Top and bottom edge now sealed with brand name sealant tape...

thanks

For several days as I exited the ramp on the interstate I saw a hose laying in the side ditch. I left it there in case someone that lost it would pick it up. The clean up crew would probably pick it up Monday and it would be gone. So today I picked it up. Unsure what it is. A black...

Personally I would go wider and taller if possible. One never knows what you may want to put in there in the future.

I do not know if this helps but here goes. The river is quite low now, maybe 6 inches to 1 foot deep. The river bank edge is about 7 feet above the river now but during floods it goes out of the banks. The area that I would like to drain I dug down with a manual hand held rotary...

Certainly good information provided to me. I will try in the near future to get some measurements, depths etc. Could provide a photo but really do not know how to do that and my flip phone does not take very good photos.

I do have a DR mower but enough small stumps etc that it has not worked well. I have a pull behind for my ATV but similar issues and of getting stuck. Not quite like jello the ground but pretty infirm.

If I get time I will try to measure how high the land is above the current water's top. It is really low now. Several times a year the river floods and overflows there, the rise then could be 7 or 8 feet for sure. Right now I "think" the bank top is 4 or 5 feet above the low water...

I have an area about 150 feet wide and 600 feet long that stays pretty wet near the river. I have been able to have it mowed twice in drought conditions to get rid of junk shrubs, saplings etc. Even then the track equipment nearly got stuck a couple of times and certainly left large...

I use the good gas in my smaller engines but at nearly twice the cost of other gas I cannot justify the cost in my truck and the many miles I drive.

If you cannot find olive wood in the sizes you need you could glue smaller pieces to size.

Hope you got the glow plug issue resolved.

My records indicate 336D-40379. Also 3T84A-400515. Hope this is of some value. Before I got the Yanmar heavy duty parts I has two after market ones break in just a few hours.

I got two of those kits for my 336d that had breakage. I think that was over 15 years ago and was told I got the last two in existence. True or not I do not know but no troubles since.

I think you would have better luck with the 5 footer

In my area woodland is taxed less. If feasible one could put the open area in CRP (Conservation Reserve Program) and the Feds will pay you an annual rent for 10 or more years. Check out all the details first with your FSA and SWC people.

keep us posted with your results

I have seen flies on an animal within a minute of blood being there. My opinion is that either doe or buck it had some injury and thus it was difficult or impossible for it to move. I have had them hang tight when mowing but always moved when they would be ran over. Now with a bat...

Hopefully 8 pages of info will be posted. Also have part numbers and photos if needed. Trust this may be of some value. Sorry about the delay in getting this to you. Holidays.

I have the manual at home now and it shows wiring diagrams etc. My wife tomorrow thinks she can copy it and forward it to this site. If there is something specific you need I can try to focus on that. It gives trouble shooting repair ideas on the glow plug functions also. Let me know.

I have a parts and maintenance manual for the 4510, would that show anything? I will not be to that location unfortunately for about a week.

I have two. I have 3/4 inch plywood that has a black "sandpaper" coating on one side. I would like to use it to sheath the outside of a lean to that will be heated and insulated. Should the black "paper" be facing the heated interior or facing the exterior? No markings as to...

Thanks.

I have a Woods 3 point hitch 750 Backhoe attachment. There is a steel piece about 8 inches long with a hole in one end that slips over a projection to lock the boom from swinging around or moving in transport. Unfortunately upon loading the tractor/hoe combo the bucket must have made...

Nicely done.

I have often seen quoted that a bush hog needs as least 5 horsepower per foot for normal mowing.

Some of my ground has been in CRP since it started in the mid 80s. Some is in tall prairie grass. Normally one cannot hay it but in two drought years they did permit that. That was difficult as some of it was over 6 feet tall even in the drought and thick. The rest is in wildflowers...

I saw one like that in Ohio recently.

If that is a diesel they were Yanmar engine based and excellent engines. If maintained that is low hours, that many hours or more left.

Labor here is not too far off of twice that. I have a Yanmar 336d, similar to the JD850/950

A nice wood for inside. Does not weather well outside. I lost over 250 ash trees because of the ash disease. They are just rotting now except for some that went for firewood.

I should have indicated what I plan to do. Have a lean to (15x40 feet) on an ag building. Would like to pour concrete in it as a floor, enclose the same so I can put in a toilet, shower and sink so I can clean up after working. The plan is to have 2 inches of concrete rigid foam...

I should have been more specific. This is for a slab pour that will be inside and really have nothing heavy on it.

At a work project they were going to put several hundred feet of all thread rod in the dumpster as the job was complete. Most is in 12 foot long sticks. Most 1/2 inch, some 3/8s. I have no near future use for it but have a concrete project coming up. Can I use it instead of rebar...

I have a 4510. Damaged the fuel filter at least 3 times but thankfully they were relatively inexpensive. Built a guard for it but not necessary since I went with a steel cartridge type filter.

Price?

Can you post the actual size of the tires?

My Mahindra 4510 cab tractor has these measurements. Height to top of first step, 18 inches, to the floor of the cab 30 inches from the ground. So from the step to the cab is 12 inches. My tires are ag type, 9.5x16 in front, 16.9x24 on the rear. Hope this is of some value to you.

I have a 4510 cab tractor. I am not sure how close that is but I will get the measurements today.

Well done. I recently put up over 17 feet long x 4 feet wide 4 inch thick ( 1/16 inch steel, 4 inch spray hard foam the another 1/16 inch steel) on my ceiling. The drywall lift strained a bit to get them up, sagged on each end so a combo bottle jack on each end took the sag out so the...

If anyone has an engine for a 2004 Rhino 660 UTV please let me know. thanks I am in western Ohio

I have sufficient used but good galvanized fence that I would like to use in a concrete pour. If that has any merit would they be secured together with wire as with rebar or some type of plastic strap or other wise? What also would be best to hold them up in the concrete during the pour...

Hope you get it back up and running soon.

I had that happen on my 4510 once. Not sure why. Noticed it before any damage occurred.

I have a 4510. Had the same problem. Lowered the battery and added an electric fan. Did not help. Took both side panels off and it has never overheated or got warm since but I do air hose out the radiator when I get all the debris, dust and dirt in there.

That looks similar to the filter I had on my 4510. Damaged two or three when brush hogging in thick stuff. That was enough, ended up putting an automotive filter (like an oil filter with a steel outiside shell) on, much stronger and have had no damage issues since. Hope yours is...

My brother has a NH 40 TC tractor with a loader. The loader will operate properly but the 3 point lift arms will not lift. They can be lifted by hand but will not with the hydraulics. Thoughts?

I changed the heading so it would give more information

I have a large quantity of commercial rubber roofing. It is perhaps 1/16 thick or a bit more. I plan to extend my gravel drive. In the past I have taken the top soil off and then put gravel in. Only needed to refresh after about 8 years but get some weeds etc. in the same. The...

Perhaps the Roman's built roads that would last for 2000 years is because they expected to be in power that long?

One State has given the county the right to restrict solar and wind. The City and County can but the landowner cannot sell/lease to the power installer for a large installation. They say the farmers do not want to lose ag ground. Should that be up to the farmer to decide and not the govt...

I had heavy duty liners put in my tractor tires. That stopped the thorn flats.

I have used mineral wool/rock wool. It is a good product but some feel it is more itchy than fiberglass.

Am I missing the price on this?

Some clay. The ruts on the hill are about 500 feet long.

3TS That rate of growth is just amazing to me. I can only guess if they are that wide they may not get too tall. Some of my walnuts in the woods are nearly 40 feet to the first branch. That is a best guess, I did not climb up to measure them.

I have some deep tractor ruts from when the ground was quite wet. Been there about 15 months. On the more level ground I considered using a box blade with the rippers slightly lowered in an attempt to spread/fill in the same where there is rut compaction. On the steep inclines rather...

The CCC ( Civilian Conservation Corp) did some work about 20 years ago for a open pavillion for the City for public use. Just a thought.

They had about a 2 page write up in the current edition of Farm Collector or another farm equipment related magazine at our local library. If I remember I will try to locate it and send you the exact name etc. It was interesting.

That work is impressive.

It is hard to imagine that much growth in 43 years even if he put in a large oak with a tree spade. Around here in the woods about 1/4 inch per year on the diameter is standard growth for an oak tree. In town with no competition perhaps a 1/3 inch or a bit more. I really did not see...

Unless you can really get it cleaned up I think the bush hog will work better than a flail mower. My flail mower was good for grass but struggled with any wood saplings of almost any size. You have your work cut out for you. I have been doing it for almost 35 years and it is never...

Anyone have any comments on either as far as likes, dislikes and reliability issues etc. Thanks

I have some used tongue and groove panels that have a 4 inch rigid foam core with 1/16 inch white steel sheets covering the top and bottom of the panels. I would like to attach them on the ceiling. The spacing there is 16 on center 2x8s. I would screw or lag screw them to the wood...

An excavator removed a number of mine, roots and all. Put in a pile. I will burn it sometime as locust is very slow to rot.

I have had a 336D for about 33 years. Good, solid little tractors.

Spare titanium (unobtanium), that is a good but unusual item to have around.

Just considering my options, try to find a used power unit, part it out or sell as is. Do not know at this point or even how to price is should I sell it. Thanks for the info provided.

I live in western Ohio between Lima and Dayton. Unsure if that is anywhere near you.

I have a 2004 Yamaha 660 Rhino UTV with a winch, snow plow, aftermarket lights, wheels and tires and sound system. I bought it from a retired fellow that said it just quit running while he was driving down the road. He did not have it long but bought it from a State that did not issue...

I either used Trex or Timber Tech on two porches over 25 years ago. Best decision, just as good as when installed. I am sure treated would have been past its prime. Cost more initially but well worth it.

Good news to hear.

I have a similar height building but 40x81. I have 4 doors on the long side and 1 on an end. Also two house size entry doors. Makes it easier to get things in and out for me.

The drywall covered a light switch on a remodel I had done about 35 years ago. It was the old popcorn/glitter . I was able to find it and cut out the needed area without having the contractor back. Did not even have a stud finder then.

I have such a system for my 1/2 ton pick up. It works well IF the load is not too heavy. If I put in too much gravel I then have to still shovel of enough until it is light enough to crank. Lighter/ less material and it works quite well.

I had heard in Canada the hole is often put on top.

Does anyone bury the propane tanks in your area?

Encouraging news.

great news

Nicely done.

I have an old Yanmar 336, about 33 HP, with a subrame mount Woods 750 backhoe PTO unit. It works but is for small work. I have had it for over 20 years. I first had it on with just the 3 pt arms but was concerned and bought the subframe for it.

I have a similar area near the river. Part I think was caused by a road that followed the river years ago but flooded often and was abandoned. The roadway was built up some and that dirt is still there and traps water trying to flow downhill and get to the river. Watching your posts with...

If you were not so far away I would have interest in it but Ohio to ID is a long way.

I have not read all the past posts but my Mahindra 4510 hood latch really works poorly.

They make solid machines. Mine is 40 years old and still going strong.

Kiwibru: Lyly Silbernagel, US Farm Innovations, 3712A Enfield Road, Austin, Texas 78703. Phone mobile 512 423 8443. www.usfarminnovations.com Hope this helps.

Shipping costs can be high also I have found.

I have had that happen on my Mahindra. You will find the replacement glass is not cheap. A company does make a "lexan" type cover shield that is said to protect the glass but also not cheap.

Goes with the truck color pretty well.

I started it twice today and there was no noise. It was 15 degrees cooler it that made any difference.

I have a high pitched squeal on my tractor. Could it be a bad water pump, alternator or AC condenser? The fan belt seems to me to be a bit too tight but it is new and has probably 20 hours on it. Would have thought it would have gotten looser, not tighter. The noise is from the...

I had to use it over the weekend as he needed it back by Monday. I did 7 hours on a Sat and 1 hour on a Sunday. He delivered it and then picked it up but lives within several miles and I have had him do almost $60,000 of excavating, grass waterways etc. in the last 2.5 years.

He finally said $75 an hour so that is what I paid.

I thought the Ford trucks now were aluminum?

On a related note is cerrowire, 12-2 with a ground pretty much a direct replacement for 12-2 romex?

Thanks for all the good inputs.

I have a chance to get 250 feet of 1.5 inch flexible aluminum conduit for $350. I want to wire my barn. See any advantage/disadvantages in this?

I cannot say the Mahindra is better or worse than other tractors I have owned or operated but a recent part problem causes me concerns. My 4510 was in the shop just one week shy of 9 months. Most parts came in but they were unable to complete the job awaiting one part. Got it back today...

Depending on which farm he had it at about 2 or 5 miles. I used it 7 hours, to refill took $120 of diesel. About 3 gallons per hour.

The owner said I could use if for free. I do not want to do that. I will refuel when done and I will also operate. He delivered it and will pick it up when done. What would a fair rental rate per hour be? Thanks

I am going to mow with the same. It has a MTL Extreme xcl 7 foot mower on it. The owner said no charge to use it but I will not do that. I will refuel when done but any idea what a fair rate to pay him per hour? I will run it. He dropped it off and will repick it up. Thanks

I cannot think that would be right. It would be difficult to check/air up the tires but then again maybe there is a reason.

I have a Mahindra 4510, made in 2004. Last Fall I had the same thing happen. As I needed to complete some work my brother put an old bolt in and a nut as I recall. I used it for several months that way. I had my tractor in the shop later for other work and they replaced the...

Anyone know of a right door for a Mahindra 4510? Need the glass/frame and handle. Thanks

I have a Mahindra 4510 built in 2004. My problem has been very slow parts availability even on some minor parts. Waiting for a door part since Jan 2022.

Still waiting for a part. For the most part I would not need a cab but it had one when I bought it and the price was right back in 2008.

The side glass on my Mahindra was a fair amount over $1000 and still waiting for one part.

I was on the way to the farm today. Saw a clean looking JD 5055E with a H240 loader, an open tractor. Was not there yesterday. Saw it too late to really stop safely. Decided I would stop on the way home. Sold already. He did give me the details. 200 hours, a 2015 model...

I appreciate the info provided. Still unsure the best way to use it. The building will use it on the second floor of a non living area but will have some heat eventually. The second floor is of a gambrel style roof. The "studs" are a full 9 inches and is the support for the roof...

My current home was built in l897 so I know what you mean but it is full of blown in paper insulation. The building I am doing will have conduit on the top floor so it will be external but the downstairs may be in the walls.

I have 2x6 and 2x8 walls that have Rockwool in them. Will cover the interior walls soon. Any advantage of putting up fan fold or 1/2 Dow rigid insulation before the walls are covered to act as a thermal break? Also if done should the seams be taped? Thanks

I have quite a bit of plywood with a black facing on one side. Almost like a thin paper with a very fine grit to it, like 2000 sandpaper. Unsure what it was to be used for. Wish to use it on a stud wall inside a garage type building to enclose it. Rockwool is in the cavity...

I have on order over $5,000 worth of that insulation but it is still several weeks out from delivery. Even if you had listed it earlier the trip to Ontario would not have worked. Hope the costs of materials slows soon. Higher interest rates could slow building .

I do not have the answer but that would not be a fun ride down the hill. Hopefully you have a front end loader to drop to stop the slide ride.

It has been in the shop since early Jan. I suspect hard to get the AC parts.

I also have a 2510 Mule. The bed is hard to lift by hand if there is really any weight on it so I generally just use my tractor loaders.

Had to replace the seal on my 4510 maybe 10 years ago. Made a tool as I recall to help retract the old seal and I think some kind of collar to press the new one back in, similar to 3 gunr. This is all from memory.

The newer ones, the old ones around here were triple brick thick.

That engine could be flooded.

My 336D smokes a bit under load and has for over 30 years. Seems pretty normal to me.

I saw a train with about 200 cars recently. Unsure how long that would be.

An enclosed trailer has a 2.1 liter, 21KW Yanmar powered Stamford generator. Diesel fueled. The flapper on the exhaust pipe lifted in some manner and let rain water enter and get in the engine. It is a 2006 unit but only about 100 hours. Not sure how long the water was in but...

I have not yet had a chance to meet with them.

To answer Chuckacon's questions. The 36 inch depth for the PVC for the electric is what the power company requires. From the transformer to the meter panel (if that is correct terminology) is 50 feet. From there it splits (so I only have one meter and base rate of $40 a month...

Thanks.

I was not concerned about water getting into the PVC. I know it eventually will. I just wanted to help drain the area where the electric line will be, just had a free trench to do it in the right location. The farm drain tile would be to dry up the ground above, nothing to do with...

I typed that in wrong. I got a deal on 4 inch PVC so bought it, the electric company only requires 3 inch but the 4 was cheap and available so I bought that.

I am trying to drain the area above the electric line, just have easy access to do it when they trench for the electric. Did not want to do a separate dig in the same area.

The farm tile would be above all of the others. Maybe only 2 feet deep to also help in drainage of the area, not just the electric line.

From the transformer an underground electric line is going to be ran to the house. It will be in 4 inch schedule 40 PVC. It needs to be at least 36 inches underground. The area it runs tends to get wet. After the electric line is it reasonable above the PVC to place a 4 inch...

thanks

Thanks

I have a project I want to use rockwool, not mineral wool. Can't seem to find anyone that sources it here. Any thoughts on where it might be found.

Getting them attached to the ceiling was a concern but perhaps a drywall lift would help the matter. I already have to bring them in from a door on the second floor as I will be unable to get most up the stairway.

My brother said he could get 2x8 at 8 feet for about the same price as 2x4 at 8 feet. Unusual world.

I have enough of the panels to cover the ceiling. The panels are gloss white so that will be a benefit. So there is less air leakage should one caulk the tongue and groove lightly before they are joined? I will need 5-6 inch screws or lag bolts to hold them up. I wanted to use...

These thoughts are all appreciated. Working on a plan. Ideas are always welcome.

The building is exterior sided. Vinyl siding with a thin fan fold and vapor wrap. 3 block high foundation on floating concrete slab. Western Ohio. Planned to spray the gaps with foam. The building is 26x36 with 8 foot high sidewalls on the bottom and 9 foot high on the top...

I have hard foam insulated panels. The insulation "looks" like expanding foam. It is metal on each side. Steel I think and not aluminum but I will check with a magnet. They are 4 inches thick. Panels up to 4 feet wide and 16 feet long. I would like to insert those between studs...

It appears there is a problem with the PTO in the NH TC40. Squeals and the bush hog bogs down when in use and the tractor cannot move. If the PTO is disengaged the noise ends and the tractor has full power it seems. Maybe PTO seals? Anyone had this problem and possible cost to...

Just an update. I am thinking it is a PTO issue. When the PTO was turned off the noise ended. Also with the PTO off the tractor functions and operates normally with full power. If it is a PTO seal etc. issue is that an expensive fix? For what I need to do now, loader work etc...

I thought I had a new replacement plug. Just located it. It matches the numbers listed, 23491-120002 and is the same as in the photo. It certainly looks different than the original factory plug. The original is longer and has a 6 sided white "nylon" crush washer that went around the...

I have a Mahindra 4510 and a Yanmar 336d. I never thought they sounded really any different than most diesels.

I have need of a oil pan drain plug bolt and nylon gasket. Actually only need the nylon gasket but perhaps should get both. Anyone have a spare or where to get one? Did not see it listed at Hoyes. Thanks This is for the 336d.

I

I recently had two acres done with about that much snow on the ground. Wished the ground was bare but needed the frozen ground also to be able to do that area properly. Only problem a few large rock tops were covered and hit that could have been avoided perhaps.

If you want to do the work I hope you get it but I found at times the best jobs I had were the ones I did not get.

If it was in an ag area there is money available for grass waterways/tile etc. It pays about 90% of the costs in our area. That could help you both out.

My twin uncles each worked for Monarch for over 40 years. Good machines.

i do not want to hijack this but can perforated plastic farm drainage tile be in the same trench above the electric line?

Could you give some contact information etc. for those snow guards. I could use some myself. Thanks

Some of the logs were too heavy and long for the 2 horse teams and with a 4 team it was narrow in places. Also the horses got tired as it was hilly and I was able to help out and gave them some rest.

I caused the ruts helping drag out the logs where the horses could not. The repairs will be on me.

Those Monarch EEs were fine machines

In all fairness to the FedEx driver I read where a car spun on the ice in front of him and he attempted to avoid running him over.

I have a 336d. Decent little tractors.

I hope to have something done also since it is frozen. They are going to look at it today and advise. Hope it goes well for you.

I was at a Polaris dealer today. He said he had 77 ATV/UTV units this Spring. He has 0 in stock now, just a used one he just sold earlier today.

It will be lighter with the water out of it, lol.

sd455dan mentioned some Pontiacs in the 60s had aluminum bumpers. Tried to pull a guy out of the snow and attached with a hook like one did on steel bumpers. Pulled right through it. It was a Pontiac of the 60s, maybe 65. Perhaps AL.

That lease is over 4 square miles. That would be huge where I live.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Whether this is correct I do not know but an old tractor mechanic said if you put the tractor in the highest gears and then push against a strong tree if the tractor stalls the clutch is not slipping, if it just motors on then there is slippage. Only saying what I heard.

leaferfly What State are you located?

I found info on the purchase for my 336d Yanmar and Woods 750 BH. That will not help your model but I got the subframe on 12-14-1992 through a Case IH dealer. It cost $345.00 then. No model number on the invoice but I have some notes that seem to indicate 8561. Is that a Woods or...

Curious what you find out on prices etc. My brother has a NH 45TC with an aftermarket Curtis cab and a FEL. A 2000 year model with about the same hours, 2000 or so. I think he would like to sell it and any info you get is appreciated.

I did that once and I got my tractor back with a ruined clutch.

I should take that back. It may have been a unit built or provided for by the Woods backhoe company for the Yanmar. Just don't remember for sure. If I get time I will try to locate the invoice.

It is a Yanmar subframe. Purchased in the early 1990s from a Yanmar dealer. Can disconnect easily to remove the backhoe unit but part still remains attached to the tractor as I recall. Have not fussed with it for years as occasionally I have a use for the backhoe and I have a second...

Now this is not a direct comparison. I have a Yanmar 336d tractor, an early 1980s model with 33 HP. I have a Woods 750 3pt backhoe on it. Initially I used it without a subframe. That always concerned me. I wondered why would Yanmar make a subframe if they did not feel it was...

It supposedly is working and running tractor but has the rear glass out. Have no idea if replacements are available but the door glass on my Mahindra 4510 is now around $2000. I plan on getting some lexan shields for it.

I do not think I will buy a Chinese tractor but wanted to know if anyone had the brand and what they thought about it. An 80 HP cab tractor for under $9000 piqued my interest.

thanks for the information. I am going to pass on it but the specs will be helpful for anyone potentially interested in it. Seems like a well built trailer.

Also is it a 2 inch or 2 5/16 hitch? Brand of trailer?

Measurements and the weight of the unit would be nice for all of us. Thanks

Where are you located? Trailer weight and yard capacity. Thanks

Can anyone give me any insight on the Foton FT 804 Eagle tractor. Good/bad and pros/cons etc. Repairs and parts availability etc. Thanks
