@@mikeadams2339 I believe the cab size is exactly the same. I never understood buying an SVL 65. There’s only a $5000 difference between a 65 and a 75. I would much rather have the larger machine. I bought the 97 because it is the complete performer. With 40 gallons of high flow, you can run any implement there is. They make larger skid steers, but I don’t see the point. Anything larger than a 97 go by yourself a steel track dozer. Bigger isn’t always better. The 97 for me is perfect. It’s the perfect blend of power and maneuverability. I can’t really fault to 75. It’s just a medium frame machine compared to the 97.

The hydra bucket is a great work tool, but I’m not sure I would give up the standard low profile bucket with a reversible, cutting edge and its place. Although, I guess you probably could. Every implement is a tool and has its purpose and its place. The hydra bucket is wonderful for breaking up chunks of soil. The Hydra bucket is an investment. The standard bucket for its cost as compared to the cost of the machine is well worthwhile to own also. Pallet forks would be the next choice. The standard bucket and forks will be discounted with the purchase of the machine through Kubota. I hope that helps.

I just had a great experience with purchasing a BOSS XT V Plow for my Mule Pro FXT. Two weeks ago I spec'd out what I wanted on the BOSS web site and they directed it to my local dealer 50 miles away, with a reply email that said if I didn't hear from the dealer in 3 days, let them know. I lost track of days and received a followup from BOSS a few days later later that said if you have not heard from your dealer, click here. The next morning I received a quote from the dealer that was well below what I was expecting, and a confirmation that he had everything in stock except for the mount for my machine, which he could order. I drove into town a few days later to pick it up, and was pleasantly surprised that he had also found the mount in his inventory. I elected to do all of the install myself and it has been a rewarding experience allowing me to see firsthand all of the engineering and features that went into the entire system. I only got stuck one time with the plumbing for the remote smart hitch2, so I called the dealer and in 15 seconds he walked me through which plug to remove from the valve body for the solenoid and where to run the line. As I was cleaning up tonight I found the missing instruction sheet and there it was, all of the information I needed without having to call. Very impressed with BOSS corporate and my local dealer, realize maybe my experience is different than some, but cannot wait to use this thing.

The Pronovost P800 TRC uses three tractor remotes. Left/right, up/down, and the rotating drum. The rotating drum will blow snow straight out of the drum on either the left or right side. It will move a greater volume of snow as opposed to simply blowing it out the chute. It moves more snow per horsepower. The rotating drum is not entirely necessary. Pronovost makes snowblowers that do not have the rotating drum function. When I have the blower hooked back up to the L5750 this coming fall I will try to do a video showing the rotating drum and how it functions.

@Celeco49482 жыл бұрын
Yes, you can achieve a nice finished seedbed using the Hydrabucket, as you described, especially if the area is small. Where the Harley Rake shines is especially when the area is large. You get a much more uniform, even finish with the Harley Rake due to the wider width and especially because the Harley Rake has guage wheels which controls an even finished depth much better. So the Harley Rake gives a much even finished work. However, the Hydrabucket will get it close. It is a phenomenal implement. The Harley Rake will fine finish it a little better. The main difference is the guage wheels where the Hydrabucket relies on the float function. Fine grading the guage wheels on the Harley will win every time. The Hydrabucket is a must buy. Using them both together is worth their weight in gold. In alot of instances you could get away with just the Hydrabucket.

The 5740-4 was new in the crate in late 2014 when it bought it. The 6060 had just came out and I was in a rush to get one of the last new 5740's. I think the 6060 is probably a very good tractor. The 5740 does not regenerate and does not have a particulate filter. It is interm tier 4. The 6060 is tier 4. As the video says I like the fuel tank on top of the engine instead of under the frame. I have heard that transmission input seals have been a problem on the 40 series tractors. Luckily it hasn't been with mine. Kubota seems to update their models about every 5 years.
