The ROPS looks good.
I'm looking to buy a 3-pt spreader. Could you tell me about yours? Who makes it and how much? Would you recommend it? I need to spread fertilizer and lime in in Spring/Summer and sand/salt in Winter.
Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jim:
My spreader is a Herd-M96 and I paid $526.00 for it this past May 2003, when I bought my 2210 tractor. I bought the Herd based on discussions and recommendations of others on this site. Do a search on the Herd and you should find quite abit of the information I am referring to. You will not be disappointed in purchasing a Herd and I can highly recommend it.

Hey Chuck,
I was wondering if your folding rops rattle?

Hi Steve:
To be truthful with you Steve, I really don't know yet. I installed the new ROPS, folded it down, and that's how I have been using it. My land is as flat as an airport runway so I really have little or no use to have the ROPS in the uplock position.
However, I can comment in this regard. When I installed the ROPS I did check it for play in the upright/locked position. Once I had it in that position I did tighten the anti-rattle knobs and the ROPS was rock solid with absolutely no play.
Another comment for ya - there are two bolts that secures the top section of the ROPS to the bottom section. They act sort of like a hinge pin. By tightening these bolts or loosening them, you can adjust the tightness of the top of the ROPS as to up and down movement. This adjustment, in addition to adjusting the anti-rattle knobs while the ROPS is in the upright position, further enhances the overall sturdyness of the ROPS. Hopes this makes sense to ya.
