He covers actual maintenance costs (around $100 for the 400-hour fluid/filter service), a recurring design-flaw fuel starvation issue that required a labor-intensive teardown to fix, using old sleeve-hitch implements instead of buying new ones, and mowing limitations around fruit trees. Best for prospective buyers wanting long-term reliability and cost insight, not spec details.
An owner-operator on his own homestead sharing hands-on, unsponsored impressions after extended use.
At 400 hours the transmission and hydraulic fluid, oil, air filters, and fuel filters need changing, costing around $100 total, plus routine greasing of fittings.
A design flaw lets trash collect in an elbow under the fuel tank, blocking fuel flow so the tractor slowly loses power and dies after running.
Yes, sleeve hitch attachments like a back blade, cultivator, and disc harrow from a garden tractor, mostly Brinley brand, fit and have held up well.
Not ideal, since the 60-inch mower is too big to get under low fruit tree branches, requiring a smaller mower for those areas.
