Thank You. With over 500 hours have you had any problems with the tractor, loader, or backhoe?

The only problem I've had is the rubber strap that holds the air cleaner canister to the aluminum bracket attached to the engine broke. I have been running it for quite some time without any strap. The air hoses have been more than sufficient to hold the light air cleaner canister. No other problems with tractor, backhoe or loader.

Your Welcome

Thank You Very Much

Your welcome!!! And welcome to the John Deere 1025R Family.

Your welcome, Let John Deere know maybe I can do a updated video with the new 2021 model then. 🤷‍♂️

THANK YOU!!!

Thanks you

Congratulations, Welcome to the family

Glad you enjoyed it!

Glad you liked it, I'm Planing on making a 5yr Review this year. If you like this lighting setup check out my current winter setup. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hsmCgNSJx87MfX0.html

Congratulations!!!! Sounds like a beast of a setup. Which R&S did you buy from if you don't mind me asking?

@@masterofeverything6468 Campbellsport Wi. Can't wait for it to be delivered.

I also have a 1025R with a Mauser cab. Love the cab. Very well made and the heater is great when removing snow. However, you will find the hydraulic couplers to the loader are next to impossible to get to as they are virtually buried under the cab floor. Unless you have very strong and nimble fingers you cannot get enough leverage to connect and disconnect the hoses, especially the black one. I have resorted to just leaving the loader frame on the tractor and taking the bucket off when not needed. Also, the Mauser cab has a fuel filler that is recessed too far and makes it difficult to completely empty a five gallon can of diesel. My comment on the mulching kit for the mid mount mower: it is worth every expensive penny !! You can trim on either side of the mower and no more grass clippings and dirt flying into the flower beds or on the sidewalk. And NO MORE RAKING !! WOOHOO !! And your yard looks great. Love this little green beast.

I will have to try that next winter Thanks

You will like it. Thank You

Thank You

Me too that is where it should be

Thank You :)

Thank You!!! Let John Deere know that LOL

CONGRATULATIONS on the purchase and welcome to the family. What was the backup switch problem?

Thank you

I'm very happy with my 1025R

Thank You. I didn't see you list a snowblower but if your planing on getting one check out this playlist first kzfaq.info/sun/PLIOEap-SqCps-YFNX8CGSmdedX7j8uR88

After seeing your video on the quick hitch and snowblower, how the contact points are worn after 2 years and your meticulous about your tractor, I’m seeking an alternative for snow removal

@@MegaJim58 Yep its not good and I hope John Deere steps up there game a bit. In the last week I found out a lot to new information and there will be a part 3 in the hunt for something better coming soon.

Just took delivery of my 2021 1025r Love it Set up like yours but without snowblower. The 54 auto connect deck has been updated

I like my mower deck for my 1025R, One mechanic multiple uses.

Well I'm GLAD it not just my loader.

I have not ran into the height problem

I hope they bring it to this side of the pond in the next couple years or I'm going to take a trip and bring one back. LOL

So you changed the 45 on the hoses to 90?

Sorry for the delay I have been busy... No Problems with either. If you mow at 2.5in or higher the cut is as good at my commercial mower a John Deere 648R. If you plan at only mowing at 1in you will scalp the lawn. The mower height is set by a knob by your left foot. if you get a loader get a heavy hitch for rear weight.

Glad you enjoyed it. The single point quick connection is crazy $$$. Also there best video for the add-ons is "Turning night in to day" and the snowblower is "Why I'm in the market fir a new snowblower"

Started out as a side job but starting 1-1-2023 will be a full LLC. Personally I would go with a 1025R over a X700 any day of the week. The 1025R is build heavier, has more attachments, is more versatile, and more cost effective. Take for example a X750 a mid range X700 cost 13k bone stock and it can only really do two jobs (snowblow and cut grass) A 1025R may cost more but you can do so much more with it. (Loader work, Mow, Snowblow, Backhoe, run 3-point and pto powered attachments) Not to mention the 1025R is diesel which will outlast the gas motor on the X700.

your welcome

I don't get a lot of dust and dirt. I get a lot of diesel soot in winter that wraps around off the back of the snowblower

? WHAT ?

Tractors are like garages, there never big enough.

Thanks the Deck is connected to the rear 3-point so you use the 3-point lever to raise and lower it

Good to know about the wire mine is a 2017. And with the skid steer QA in someone is worried about losing 100lb of lifting capability you already bought too small of a tractor. Next spring I plan on updating my lighting setup.

I personally don't like the backhoe, It too slow. But that is from someone who is uses of running full size excavator. What do you all plan on using your tractor for?

Sorry, I don't want to say exactly what dealer because it narrows down my location too much. I think one brake is fine... I really don't even use the one that much seeing the 1025R has a hydro trans. Doesn't it rip up the grass around the trees?

Thanks for the feedback

I'm thinking about making new hoses the right way to make it easier

Yes, with that setup the chute will stop and stay anywhere.

it would still be repairable with a simple fuel sender, its only 2 wires

congratulations on the purchase and welcome to the family of 1025R owners

I just got it back today, they had to mount the front loader and mower. I need to purchase a tooth bar and some other stuff from GWT now that I can measure the actual width of the bucket. Thank you for the welcome to the 1025R family! :)

Yep... There in the description of this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hL-Vp5qGvNi5lKs.html

Deere 1025R are updated ever few years with minor changers. If there do a redesign the model number will likely change. For example the older 1025R are model 1026R

@@masterofeverything6468 Hi there ! Thanks for the reply. I didn't know that, good to know ! 🎅😁

Thanks

I think R&S is probably one of the nicest and most professional dealers I have worked with any problems I have had are all ways resolved quickly. Anytime I go into my R&S everyone knows my name from the salesman to the parts manager so either I'm in there too much or they care about there customers enough to remember there first and last name. Both salesman I have dealt with have been knowledgeable about what there selling even when I ask a hard question I think should stump them. When I bought my new 648R a few weeks back I actually had one of the Riesterer kids as a salesman. If you don't mind me asking which R&S are you looking at buying from?

You will love the mulching kit

Don't cut the 1025R out of your mind just because of the snowblower. The tractor is solid. I agree with you 100% about the snowblower and this will be my last year with the John Deere blower. There are other companies out there that make a much better snowblower for the 1025. What do you all plan on using your tractor for?

@@masterofeverything6468 Snow removal, maintaining my woods, moving around dirt and mulch for yard work, moving project vehicles/engines/parts around, I'm thinking a CK2610 or 1626 are more the size I want to go for, and they can be had at a better price point. I don't want/need a belly mower on it, I have a Simplicity with a 60 inch deck that's already hard to get into certain parts of my my yard around my house and shop. Going to go the route my mother's gone and upgrade to a zero turn when this mower has reached the end of its service life. I'd prefer the higher capacity loader and larger frame with more stability and ground clearance. I just don't think this is the right setup for what I'm looking to do.

@@kylesonsalla7620 Ya it sounds like a 1025R is too small for your needs. Have you look at a John Deere 3025D? I look at a Mahindra and to me there cheap because there build cheap. Just my opinion.

@@masterofeverything6468 The MAX 26 XLT my mom has is actually built by Mitsubishi, which many of their mid range tractors are, their small E MAX series are built by TYM, and they build the larger ones themselves. Depends which you buy for the quality level. I'm heavily leaning towards the Kioti, from Swiderski, they have a lot of stock on hand and great prices. Need to get out and actually drive the exact models I'm interested in though. Also open to an L2601 Kubota. I don't think I could go wrong with any of them around here with how many dealers there are for all 4 brands and I don't think any of them make a "bad" tractor, just gotta see whose got the best pricing and which I feel most comfortable operating I guess.

I would prefer not to do that.

Congratulations and welcome to the 1025R family. What do you think of it so far?

@@masterofeverything6468 thxs,am very impressed so far an its super powerful

What size sprayer is that? Where could I purchase 1?

Not yet, I know the update your talking about but I'm waiting for the factory bracket on it to fail first.

I wouldn’t wait, supposedly the valve cover can crack and pieces fall into the valve train and destroy the engine.

@@terrywest7837 Good to know from my understanding only the bracket broke. I will have to look into that.

Yep, it already in the works.

@@masterofeverything6468 I want one too but the pricing is getting crazy.

You got to give a bit more information. What still works fine?

The short answer is if you have to do sidewalks get the 47in. I never wish I had bigger a lot of times smaller it better. With the 47 I can clear a sidewalk CLEAN in one pass without ripping up grass on both sides.

I'm sure it work but coming from someone who was ran excavators it way too slow.

Thank You so much.

We will see

Can you be a bit more specific?

Bypassed.. lol

Let me answer your question with a question. Why is every other sub compact tractor manufacture using SSQA but JD?

What is this, do you mean the tractor?

@@masterofeverything6468 Yes. To put a receiver on the front that I could hitch up my travel trailer to and move it around where I couldn't with my truck. Like you have on the back of yours to move your flatbed trailer around.. I'd need it on the front to make tight 90 degree turns to park my trailer for winter etc...

@@patrickp4827 No, There is nothing for the front. You can do it with the 3-point hitch. I back a camper in to a seasonal camp site with mine. There tractor is so small the only problem is you cant see past the camper so you need help to guide you. Also you will need a loader too for weight in the front or all you will do is a wheelie.

@@masterofeverything6468 Okay, sounds good. I was hoping for a front end attachment for precision maneuvering but even out the back, it'll do better than trying with my truck! -lol. And yes, I'd probably need some weight in the bucket to keep me from going end over end.

@@patrickp4827 Go talk to your local John Deere Dealer tell them what you want to use it for and see what they recommend. I'm thinking you may be better off with a bigger tractor then the one I have. I know some of the 3-series JD have a front 3-point hitch which will allow you to do what you want.

Its a 4in www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00W1ENGR2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

😂 Hard to wear out whats not there. There are no bushing or bearing in the snowblower mount. LOL

What model and year do you have?

What it on? X700 X500 1025R 2025R?

1026r 48” snow blower

Ya mine came with 45 degree fittings

One word "proprietary". I see the advantages of the JDQA but I would love the ability to choose to use the "open standard" SSQA.

@@masterofeverything6468 I get it.

A cab would be nice but it is a lot of $ to only get used 2 months out of the year and I don't mind the cold.

1000 Curtis soft cab well worth the money with glass windshield and wiper put a golf cart heater in it you will stay warm and the windshield will stay clear. Transferred the blower from my 425, never had a problem with the quick hitch. The one on the 1025 does have that extra part to deal with.I like that you can put down pressure on the blower to scrape ice. My 425 AWS was great for mowing with the power flow bagger. I just got rid of it and picked up a ferris is2100z efi 60 inch with oil guard and the premium suspension seat. My back needed a break. I agree the 1025 should have come with one. I have the 60 inch auto connect deck and wasn't thrilled with the cut.I took it off and keep it up for a backup. I ended up reinforcing the bucket,it was a little flimsy. I wish it was a little heavier tractor like my old yanmar 226D.I had a 3 point backhoe for it and the flow was good you could actually get some digging done with it.Other thing I miss is no split brakes, and power beyond. And with the emissions on it it drinks fuel compared to the old yanmar which was the same displacement and horsepower. But still a great tractor

????

Some of us use our phones to get customers and for billing. No need to be so salty!

Yep, There is a steel snowblower impeller to replace the plastic one for over $400. JD can be a little price crazy!

If the make couch's with USB why can't my 1025R have USB?

I repaired the bucket this spring.

0 what?

??? $1000

Its a review I'm going to point out the good and the bad.... If you don't like it don't watch it.
