What have you done with/to your GC Series 2300, 2400, 1700 Tractor TODAY

[MF RED in MT]

Storms from about the past 10 days dropped about 2' of new snowfall and a few days ago it warmed up with about 1" of rainfall.

About 2' of snowfall on the roofs was reduced to about 8" of wet snow.

The dog was scared of the snow monster (snow sliding off of the roofs) for a whole day.

Yesterday I purchased a new battery for the 8 year old F150 from Batteries Plus (about $300), just because as I call it preventive maintenance.

Thought for a moment about trying to get 10 years out of the OEM battery, but NO I am not going down that rabbit hole, ha.

Snowed about 2" last night and I agree that Spring is just around the corner.

Completed the "final regeneration" on the 1759.

hauled blower to help someone out, this 20ft trailer gives me good ability to place weight on axles where needed.

I looked at my tractor today. Sitting about 75 yards from the back door, in the shed. It’s still there. Can’t get to it because I got a broken ankle. Got a knee scooter, but it doesn’t go too well in snow or mud.

Hope it heals fast. How did you break it?

Need a knee sled

Yeah I do! Step ladder kicked out while I was pushing up hard on a 2x10, expediting my return to ground level. I was only 2 steps up. Wasn’t my ladder, either. Should have grabbed mine.

Hi all,

I have 2022 GC 1723EB, so I'm fairly familiar with the 1723 & 1725 models. But I am curious about "how we got here" and putting it together in a separate post/chart. I am interested in learning more about the previous models:
- GC 2300 / 2310 s/n below JNA25201
- GC 2300 / 2310 s/n above JNA25201
- GC 2400 / 2410 / 2600 / 2610
- GC 1705 / 1710 / 1715 / 1720

Specific questions:
- What's the difference between the early and late 2300 / 2310's?
- Did all the 2300 / 2310's come without a tach?

Would appreciate responses (either here or by private message) with:
- year
- s/n number
- model number
- loader model number if applicable
- joystick location (dashboard, loader frame, right floorboard, or ?)
- loader valve location (under right floorboard, dashboard, loader frame, or ?)
- backhoe model number if applicable
- hours
- problems and/or dislikes
- any photos you'd like to share

TIA, Dick

FEL Model is 2350;
BH Model 2375;
MMM is a 2325;
Blower is a 2360.

Bavarian, I'm interested in your "final regeneration" process.
I was under the impression that the tractor won't run correctly without "some" restriction in the DPF?
