Re: John Bud\'s L3410
Here are two pictures showing how it's feet got dirty.
Funny side note: At work a buddy of mine saw the pictures and asked if I was doing anything or just digging because I could! The nerve of the guy, actually stating the obvious /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif.
But really, I was making a snow melt retention area to attract ducks. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

Re: John Bud\'s L3410
John -- Just curious about the ROPS being folded down. Mine was such a pain to unbolt I drilled out the threads and replaced the bolt with a hitch pin and spring so I could raise and lower it quickly and easily. Seen too many ugly things happen with rollovers when the ROPS was down.
Be careful, bud.

Pete, Uh, yeah, guilty as charged. I didn't up, the ROPES for the photo. Too excited at the time. (That was September) I'm more religious about it now. I did look up the hitch pin action for the ROPS bolt replacement. I was wondering if there was a better way that didn't result in the bolts being drilled. Then I looked up and I saw the "wonder magnets" I ordered to make a Chalkley Cup, there may be a new addition to my tractor soon. I just have a few ideas to convert into actions....
Rob,
Over in the Attachments section, I have been posting on my quest for a rotary cutter. The short story is that I will be ordering a Woods BrushBull 600 Medium Duty cutter. It's a beast at 1100 pounds of gnarl eating aggression! oooh, I think I OD'ed on testosterone there for a moment. I am also investigating boxblades. The Gannon Industrial series has caught my eye and I may be getting one of them too, this spring. But aside from my home cobbled together sprayer, I have no back end tools.
I do have loaded tires and have never felt very light in the back. In digging a pit about 8' deep, I managed to stall the tractor while lifting too much, but even then it felt fully connected to the earth. Must be my massive weight /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif ! Or luck...

We've got some issues with attachments right now... give us a day or two to get it sorted out. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
