He covers implement choices (Titan grapple, landscape rake, box blade, fence post puller) and DIY toolbox mount, then spends real time diagnosing a hydraulic fluid leak, tracing it to couplers, replacing them, and showing the ongoing drip. Useful for buyers curious about early ownership quirks and real ownership costs.
Posted by an owner-operator on their first tractor, learning and troubleshooting hands-on rather than presenting expert or dealer-level knowledge.
Yes, the owner lost about one gallon of hydraulic fluid over 10 hours, traced it to a leaking coupler, and replaced both factory couplers, though a small leak continued afterward.
He got a 60 inch Titan single lid grapple with third function, a landscape rake, a 60 inch Titan box blade, a standard 5 foot bucket, and a Titan fence post and tree puller.
He removed the fluorescent triangle that came on the tractor, drilled holes in the toolbox itself, and bolted the toolbox through those existing mounting points.
