My 2520: working pics

[Mercmaniac]

I bought this tractor last May and so far it has been everything I have wanted. Just wanted to share a few pics of it at work. Thanks to all for the wealth of info given here, I have learned a ton since spring. A Lake Ontario fishing forum used to be my daily read but now its TBN :thumbsup:

Sure looks like it is doing the jobs for you.
On the third pic, did you plow before using the disc, or did the disc work up the sod that way?
Going to be a food plot?

 

[Mercmaniac]

beenthere, I plowed with a single bottom plow first and a month later ran the disc over it several times. In late Aug I purchased the tiller. I spread composted manure over the site and tilled it several times in early fall. This will be my new garden location for next year.

Is that a Markham tooth bar?

Sweet! I love your set-up on the quick-hitch for holding your tools. Can we get a closer picture of it?

 

[Mercmaniac]

wrflt, Yes it is a Markham toothbar.

Henri88, The pipes for tools are actually mounted on a JD 3-pt tractor receiver hitch attachment. I added the holder for the chainsaw after this pic.

I just recently (2 weeks) tried to find a Markham/Gator toothbar and could not make contact with them. I liked the way it was constructed. Finally settled for one from Iowa farm equipment. Almost the same, but seems it might be a little weaker. I am pleased with it so far though.
