I have a Kubota BX23S. I'm still a relative newbie, have had my SCT for a couple of years but certainly not an expert.
My neighbor asked me for a favor. He had a couple of dirt piles delivered and wanted me to move them. We live in Canada and it is still pretty cold here even end of March.
I told him I'd probably damage his lawn but he wanted me to try anyways. I did - dirt pile was frozen and the wheels just spin trying to dig the loader into the dirt.
He's a good neighbor and has helped me out a few times so I'm disappointed I could not help him more.
I would always wait until early May to have anything delivered... not sure why he had the dirt delivered so early but he did.
What consistent temperature would I need to be more successful? I'd like to give it another try but obviously the temperature needs to be consistently higher so the dirt becomes much softer.
Appreciate your comments. Thanks.
