what kind of dogs are those? :)

Great Pyr's are wonderful. You have my sympathy.

yeah - I'm well past needing to mow. But the rider is still in the shop and I'm not up to pushing the craftsman mower uphill that much. (yard on a slope)

I thought up to 30 was subcompact utility, 28-50 was compact utility, 50-80 was utility, and 80+ was "full sized ag". but - an AC D17 is considered an ag machine, and it's pretty close to the same size as my 3510. (and has nowhere near the pulling power as a neighbor of mine discovered a couple...

actually, on my mower - I figured they did the same thing with how they measure output that the auto manufacturers and electric motor folks did years back. they changed how they define HP. (I know part of this is because of materials improvements, but not all of it) a 20 year old 1/2HP electric...

the letter i got on this last night said you can also opt for an extended warranty rather than the $$. while I generally hate class action suits, this option almost sounds worth it to me, especially since I've already had the mower in for warranty service once.

sounds good! don't forget to post a couple of pics in the tractor pic thread. :)

welcome to the forum! PBinWa has a 2516, so he should be able to answer your questions w/out any problem. at the 50 hour maintenance you drain the front axel and after that I'd be surprised if the tractor generates very many shavings, unless you abuse the MFWD. If you're really worried about...

Good luck - and I completely understand about the wind. It's pretty breezy up here today as well.

cowboy - if you still have any of this left, there's someone in your neck of the woods looking for sucker pipe to build a fence. off craigslist on 3/24 but in wichita http://topeka.craigslist.org/grd/1659974092.html

since it keeps raining Friday/Saturday, it's too wet to mow -- my mower is going in for its annual tune-up/service Friday, so I will hopefully be able to use it next week (if the ground dries) Pastures and hayfield are looking good, though. Cowboy - I'm diappointed in you. I don't see any...

Bob - you can have some of my rain. I even have standing water on the slopes in my pasture! We get nice sunny warm weather m-th, then it starts raining Friday about noon and goes through until Sunday - every weekend the last 5 or 6, except for the ones where it snowed on us. :(

some folks use the 1100 RPM PTO speed at half throttle for low HP jobs - lets them get the RPMs without burning as much fuel. finish mowing is one of the uses I've heard of folks doing this.

My Mahindra 3510 is a rebadged TYM 330 - good machines. Welcome to the forum and enjoy!

Just outside of Hutch - you've got a GREAT resource in your backyard if that's true! Welcome to the forums. The 2740 is a nice machine, but the operator platform is a bit tight for me. :) and don't worry about getting stuck - that's what the FEL is for! (we've all done it - just ask Doc) More...

s'truth - he consistently hits the dirt 2 feet in front of the target stand! worst case of trigger clench I've ever seen...

I use a real estate sign for my target holder -- Klumpe has a buddy who is REAL green when it comes to pistols and he keeps hitting the steel frame... more on topic - I've used sawdust to pick up the worst of spills - then use it as fire starter in the shop stove.

we had 4-6" of snow that drifted the road shut again after the plow went through. it got replowed Sunday around 1. I stayed inside and helped keep the 3 month old neice and her other aunt & uncle entertained.

CJ7 beat me to it -- mender plate. epoxy it in place and use a couple of pop rivets to hold it there while the epoxy sets, then paint them orange.

Brandi, it was great to meet you in person - plus Booger, the ferrets, your son, and the big red beast, thanks again for showing me your place! hope your Saturday work went well.
