I dont even know what brand it is , it is red and has Farm Equipment Distributers , cincinati ohio, stickers on it. I tried to call the # on the lable but didnt get any ans. The price was $400 dollars. The dealer i got it at sales farm pro tractors, he had alot of king cutter tillers and HOWSE rotary cutters around his lot. im taking it back Fri. he said he would have some in and he would exchange it or give my money back. Its close to the kubota dealer wher i got my Bx they told me to bring it by and they would see if it would work. I quess i bought a pig in a poke....LOL

Junkman i called the guy i got the post hole digger from and he said it was a international brand made in Belfry ohio, not sure if i spelled it right or not.

NO , i bought the BX new about 3 years ago, just bought the phd. Had to return it , and get another one because some holes were drilled wrong. got the new on today it seems fine. Also got a threepoint carry all thing, it looks like a set of forks made out of angle iron, Dont know what i need it for, but seems like i needed at the time. LOL. one mor question what are the little chains on the pto drivline for , there on the covers that go over the ujoints. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

The light chains are to keep the plastic shields from rotating with the PTO. You hook them up to the tractor or implement (watch that they have enough free travel with the 3PH up and down). It's a safety thing that they should not rotate.

The carryall is a great investment.... Put a deck on it and haul firewood, furniture, tools, etc.... This fall I used mineto harvest pumpkins. This winter I'll use it to haul fencing materials.

....and a spray tank on the deck; ride around spraying Round-Up for a whole lot less than a tank with its own frame and wheels.
