Coming from an Ariens 54 inch, I was all in on buying the new Gravely. Not offering a 54" deck was a deal killer for me. Bought the Spartan RZ 54 instead with the B&S 2500 CXI. Actually prefer that particular engine over the Kawasaki FS691 which was the only other option.

I studied subcompact tractors for two years before I made a purchase. I was down to Kubota, TYM and YANMAR. I needed the smallest model for my business to get in and out of customers gates. After studying them all closely, I pulled the trigger on the YANMAR 223. It has been an amazing tractor for its size. I would recommend it to anybody looking for a sub.

One of the best explanations of the transmission I've seen. Nice job!!

Great Video, super helpful. I am looking at one. Do you need to have that back bale on to counter weight the bales? The YM359 isn't that heavy I dont think. Maybe 3000 lbs....my bales are a measly 800lbs

What were the numbers from the pull?

$70 bucks 4 a tool box?? Haha. No way... ill put my $2 box with $15 dollar's worth of tools n bolt it down to the fender like i did my 1964 4006. Altho it had a small box on drivers side fender😂😂 made in 🇩🇪.. haha

If you can get the shuttle shift there's real no need for a hydrostatic

What that scale in lbs or kg

I just ordered a SA425 and want to order a piranha tooth bar. What size do I order from BXpanded ?!? I’ve seen 51.75” ?

Nice, but is the forward / reverse gear lever a pain when using the bucket? I'm sure its fine for field work, but constantly going back and forth seems like a pain.

all good points. I have had gear and hat. If your bush hogging especially backing up into brush, HST is a game changer. If all you do is mow fields then gear with shuttle is better in my view

Everyone already knows about the Deere and Kubota tax. Masseys compare much more with New Hollands as far as bang for buck. Both very good brands that really mostly care about the meat and potatoes sizes of tractors (60+ hp). CNH and AGCO tractor frames all seem to be a little larger hp for hp compared to other brands. They are both global conglomerates though, so you never know which country made which model. It could be France, Italy, Britain, Turkey, China, Korea, Canada, or here in the US. They also are massive equipment manufacturers too. Case is to New Holland as Fendt is to Massey, or in a fashion, how GMC is to Chevy. They are about 90% the same. There are more notable differences in the Monster class 9 units though, especially the tracked ones.

Is the pto a snap ring change or those dang bolts? We have a 6713 and are looking to upgrade to a 6s.

Why is my left drive handle lagging behind the right? Where do I adjust it on an RZ-C? Any help is appreciated...

I know im a year behind, but it was pretty obvious that the massey loader was mounted higher than the case in the video. At the end of the day, it comes down to price and dealer support after the sale with farm equipment. Perhaps a little bit of brand favoritism thrown in to boot.

I’m interested in a Massey 4700 series but prefer to not have def. But need closer to 100hp in the next few years. Could I buy the 4707 and after the warranty tune it to match the 4710? I just want the most tractor for the money but also don’t wanna trade up in 5 years

I got Massey Ferguson 3635 and it’s suddenly moving slow and I parked it, later it’s not moving but starting to engine is good. I replaced hydraulic oil and filter because showing in dash hydraulic low pressure sign. I replaced hydraulic sensor too. Still tractor not moving forward and reverse. Please help me, thanks

I have question for sum reason none of controllers are working on backhoe from back seat of tractor back cld it be fuses ??

How big a tractor you need to run it?

Wish the E series had standard rear hydraulics .

Wish you was in Kentucky. I want one!

FS22 needs a mod of this baler

Always interesting

Does it come with a block heater

$1,600 price difference.. 🤦‍♂🤡 What a joke.

Ahh the good old RCZ that doesnt even offer a mulcher or bagger option. No thanks

Does it have draft control for plowing?

Thanks for your time. I own a TYM 474, HST, currently 210hrs Has never regened (nor have ever indicated a loss of power). I am not a tractor mechanic. I would recommend for folks with problematic regens to install a pyro as close to the exhaust valve ports as practical, prior to the cat. I like analog gages, but an idiot light that illuminates if exhaust temp is to low will work. Tractors have a wide range of mechanic advantages that can work against engines that are subject to repetitive regens. The pyro will learn the operator how the manage the exhaust temperature to keep the cat hot. A hot exhaust is what the will prevent regen, not engine rpm nor jacket watet temperature will make the cat hot. All Diesels need a minimum exhaust gas temperature to burn clean. Regards.

Willmit pull a 2 bottom or 4 ft disc

Sat on a 2023 bad boy Mz, as well as a 2023 Spartan Rz-c. I was shocked on the difference. The spartan was bigger, beefier and felt better in every way. Local spartan dealer had a sale and I bought the spartan for a few hundred more than the bad boy. Really enjoying the spartan so far.

I HATE HATE HATE my 4710 because of this clutch! It never calibrates and is always jerking at the WRONG time! I will NEVER buy another Massey!!!!

I have this mower but when I put my code in. I get a blinking hourglass on the scene and and red light indicator and don’t know what that means or what the problem

How do these MF's compare to the Yanmars? Ive been going deep into the world of Yanmar recently, but despite MF making massive tractors, I dont see much on their smaller units. Considering a unit for a 10 acre horse farm, with a LOT of snow removal... Honestly, I was pretty set on the Yanmar YT235C but then I saw the MF 1835 M with a cab and Im back to more research. Thanks in advance. Really appreciate all the content you guys put out.

I need a company that can spray a 152 acres of forrest in CA. Do you know a company out that way or close to CA?

Spartan started from the Bad Bit team. Used tech from Bad Boy to start. This was a lame comparison.

Can I got from reverse to forward with the brake to neutral?

I have a 4709 with under 200 hours. In the last 6 months the computer has shut it down twice because the sensors show the exhaust is not getting clean enough. My dealer is telling me this is my fault that I need to keep it at 2000 RPMs at all times. Seems like a load of BS to me.

What does it weigh?

what about the single point loader hydraulic release

Spartans were great, now that Toro owns them, who knows

Loader Cylinder Safety Stops not fitted during your walk around setting a bad example! I did like your presentation thanks.

Great comparison. For those that are wondering, you can get the Spartan with a key ignition. My RZ Pro 54” has a key ignition and was the only one available at the dealer. They can get you a key ignition if you request it. Absolute fan of Kawasaki and I will buy nothing else. Before they were bought out by Husqvarna my Yazoo-kee was a Kawasaki engine and after 20 years I sold it to my father and it is still rolling and has not had one problem with the engine. Also this mower is not hydrostatic, which in opinion is fantastic and one of the reasons why I bought the mower. This mower is built like a tank and rides like a dream. I have an acre a lot and it literally takes about 30 minutes to mow my yard.

Where can I get one of those hats?

I prefer mechanical but I do loader work so the 1800m series is the best of both worlds.

I just bought an RZ C w Kawasaki 42 inch and it came with a key , no digital stuff other than hour display? And no debate dangit.

I just bought a 1745D 2022 model from Tellus Equipment, it only had 50+ or so bales run through it, upon delivery I notice the bale tension knob was screwed all the way in, and the bale size sensor was set to max. Could these two setting affect bale density? I have reset the bale size to about 57 inches and backed off the tension knob a couple of turns. What is the cycle start plug on the harness? I am thinking it is for a manual test? Also looking for operators manual and parts manual.

I have a 10 ft Taylor way disk harrow with 22 inch blades my neighbor has a 5075 deer it can’t pull it lol my 4707 pulled it down to the hub no spin no sweat lol

Great videos on the Massey Ferguson S tractors. Question: which 3-pt hitch option do you recommend for function and convenience (not cost)? telescopic ball ends with hydraulic top link? Or do you like the hook arms with balls (might be easy to misplace those balls...) And what are your thoughts on the automatic stabilizers?

Hey got a question? My handles aren't floppy, however both of them come in towards the center too far, the ends end up touching or going past each other. Is there any type of adjustments to keep them from coming too far inwards?

Saving the environment by burning more diesel during active regen. Government regs at their best.
