Implements...

[Hunter8282]

Starting from scratch here. Kioti NS4710H Cab w/3rd function on order.

Are there preferred implement manufacturers or does it depend the implement itself?

Which implements does it make sense to buy used and which would you prefer to buy new.

I know I want a grapple of some kind to move brush and logs etc., some kind of chisel plow and disk, some kind of mower (rotary or flail), something to pullup small trees and remove small stumps, probably a tiller.

Do you find any value in renting to try an implement out before buying? I am sure I'll have tons more questions as we go.

Do you find value in getting them through the local dealer vs buying online or box store?

Any and all advice greatly appreciated!

For implements with a gear box, I prefer the "buy once - cry once" approach. Generally meaning quality name brand stuff. For implements like a rake, blade, or box blade typical farm stores can be adequate. I do inspect them closely for weld quality though.

Get a set of pallet forks, you won't regret them.
