Great technique! I tried to find your previous post describing it, but no luck. Can you tell us the thread number or date? Thanks.

I think this is how to past a link to another thread. It was titled "Jinma Strong Like Bull" in the Chinese Tractor Forum. Towards the end of the thread is a picture of a fulcrum rock being used to roll one that's way to heavy for the tractor to drag.

That's it, and thanks for the guidance. You must have gotten a A in physics because this deserves extra credit!

That is a way of doing it. I just put them in the bucket though. Very seldom does the TN find a rock too big but if that happens I just push it. However, I don't use rocks for decoration. I keep finding them in the fields I plow. I know I have a big rock in the ground when two of the three bottoms trip on my plow. Then its time to start digging down till I find it and so far the biggest rock I found was 5 foot wide by 3 feet deep and it broke so it was only about 18 inches the bottom half that broke off was slightly smaller and came to a point so it wasn't as hard to get out. That rock is in the very back of our field now right next to the I-90 if anyone wants it just stop by while you are driving thru and I will load it up for you to get it out of our land. Still have a couple more rocks to dig out when I get the time but we don't plow that field too much anymore.

Hey DIY guy:
Nice looking tractor, I thought you had a 254 but hey that little 224 looks nice ahead of that rock, I moved a few that were that size+ after conversing with ya on-line about it. Mine were mostly burried though and I still have some that are 5' by 3' by? deep... I'm gonna dig around em with my import back hoe then chain em up & out with my JM284. So far I have about 4 that size and a few smaller ones that are plied up. Gonna one day get a rock garden out front so I don't have to MOW so much grass!.
