What's the procedure for mounting/removing the belly mower? Jack the tractor up with the FEL and slide it under? It does not appear to be a drive-over.

You turn and pin all the wheels in the sideways position. Drop it to the ground and unpin two pins on the back and one on the front subframe. Disconnect the PTO. And the mower rolls away to the side. It is not drive over.

Remember grease gun nozzles are adjustable:. Loosen it a bit.

If you still have questions: please read this thread.

Thank you! I read some of that thread. Looked at the two nozzles I had (different brands) and was still stumped. I showed my wife and we got a vise grip and wrench. After mangling the nozzle some more I finally got it to turn. I don't know why they tighten it so much, but it is ridiculous! Now I can grease the recessed zerks.

I had 4 tons of rock delivered. The MT 125 was able to scoop up a full bucket of the 1 inch clean. We only did that twice, most of the time we were taking about 3/4 full loads. Not lifting to full height except to settle the rock even in the bucket. Still getting used to the loader and trying to reduce the jerkiness when making adjustments. I move or release the stick and the whole tractor jerks. The backhoe seems to be adequate ballast for this work.

Nice looking shovel and wheelbarrow. Sure beats doing it by hand. Looks a lot like my XJ2025 with smaller sneakers....

image.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpegHere's a few photos of my current project: doing a septic system for the new house I'm going to build. So far have the 1000 gal tank in place (the hole was 8' wide, 12' long, and 6' deep), the cross trench, and 1 run of the leach field ( need 2-56' long and 5' deep)dug. There's a pile of 38 tons of 1-2" rock that will go into the trenches. This little tractor does not cease to amaze me! Have 36 hours on it already and ordered all the filters for the 50 hour service.

Looking good! That is some extensive work! Have you used that tooth bar you bought? I was considering it for helping dig out bush honeysuckle and other light digging.

The tooth bar made a dramatic difference in digging / grading the dirt. I was able to take off the surface grass and topsoil w/o too much effort. It really made a difference breaking into the hard clay / dirt. Well woth the $199. For picking up the stone, I took it off.

The HST pedals seem to have gotten sloppy. When taking my foot off a pedal they don't return to a side by side position. I also think my travel speed is reduced. It does come to a stop when the pedal is released. I am looking at page 5-13 of the manual about adjusting the HST control linkage.
