I just purchased a SC2400 at auction with only 71hrs..was going to turn around and flip it but decided to keep it upon reading about how everybody likes this tractor. Now I'm looking to get some attachments. Thinking about a snowblower, roof and ?. Wanted to hear from others who own the tractor and what they love about it and what attachements they got. I got a mower and I like how easy it is to take on and off. Hear that the FEL is easy also. I have a Land Pride rotary tiller.

I have the Yanmar EA2400 - the Australian red and black version of the SC2400. The only difference is that fel loaders sold in Aus are required to be self levelling. Yanmar does not make a self levelling loader and so the one fitted to my tractor is made by another company (Ansung).
I have a 4 in 1 bucket operated by an electronic diverter valve - using the bucket curl and dump lines. this is very useful, although the extra weight of the bucket means that less payload can be carried. I think that the geometry of the self levelling loader causes a sizeable loss in payload capacity and so would be less of an issue for US owners.
I also have a 4' box grader with 3 cultivating tines which is very useful for levelling, scraping, cultivating and pulling out rocks in shallow ground. However when the ground is hard, the wheels will easily lose traction even in 4 wheel drive mode and so need to take several shallow passes - going around in circles seems to work the best for me.
I have a del Morino 4' rotatiller which my tractor easily powers, even in hard ground. I find putting it on my tractor to be a bit difficult because of the need to have a very short PTO shaft resulting in a high angle of connection between the tractor and implement. Also the 3pt linkage limits the height I can raise the implement, which can make it difficult to reverse over uneven ground. I am looking into ways of how I can raise the implement higher of the ground - such as attaching shorter lift arms to the 3pt linkage.
I also have a carryall - very useful for carrying bricks, pavers etc around the yard.
Hope this helps.

Hey green Tea-
Welcome to the forum and congrats on the 2400. I have one and love it. I happen to have a new front hitch and 60" dozer blade made for the 2400, and also a blower that fits in the same hitch I would consider selling.....if interested in either one/both PM me.
Good luck!

Welcome to TBN. I have the front end loader, mower and weight box. I love my machine still after 3 plus years. You were informed right, the FEL is easy on and off. Hope you continue to enjoy yours.
