    Does anyone out there actually own a TL10? Do you like it. Any pros or cons?

    Takeuchi TL10 Review requested

    May I ask what you were quoted for a new TL10? I will review the SVL90. Our local dealer only had a smaller unit in stock when I previously looked at Kubota

    Takeuchi TL10 Review requested

    I like the size and power of the TL150 that I have . However, I view going to a TL10 as dropping only about " half a size" since the TL10 is bigger than the TL140 that it replaces. As to your friend having two outlets on his, that is a nice option. The unit I'm looking at does not have the...

    Takeuchi TL10 Review requested

    I'm considering buying a TL10 and was wondering what people were saying about this machine. Do anyone have a particular reason to recommend or not recommend it? I currently have and older TL150 and as a general statement really like the Takeuchi brand. I am considering trading to a TL10 to get a...

    Electrical issues Using a Bobcat 6 way dozer blade on a Takeuchi TL150

    I just purchased a Bobcat 6 way dozer blade to use on a Takeuchi TL150. The Takeuchi is an older model and does not have an electrical connector coming to the front of the machine. The Bobcat blade has a 7 pin connector / harness and a printed circuit board on the blade for controling the...

    New Holland Powershift Transmission

    Hi Grader Dane, I appreciate your reply. Have you had any issues at all with the LB 115? Would you buy it again? I'm looking at a 2003 for $33,500 with 1700 hours on it. Any thoughts as to that price? Tires are bald, but everything else looks very original.

    New Holland Powershift Transmission

    Thanks for your reply. You mentioned that you could switch to manual mode. Can you do this from the cab, or do you have to do something down at the transmission.

    New Holland Powershift Transmission

    Can anyone tell me how to operate a New HOLLAND Powershift Transmission. I'm looking at a LB 115 and when you turn the shifting knob, it lights up as if it is changing gears, but the speed does not change. I'm not sure what gear it is in, but it does go forward and reverse. It just doesn't...

    Backhoe preference? New Holland LB115 or JCB 214 S Series

    I've owned a JCB 1550B and had good luck with it. I sold it to get something newer / more modern. I will use this on the farm to clear fence rows and repair tile. Will also be pushing out fruit trees in an old orchard. In researching a new machine, I've discovered the JCB 214 "S" series with 4...

    '97 New Holland Powershift

    Hi Duke, I've been reading you comments from several months ago concern your LB 115. How do you like if now? I'm considering buying one, but was concerned that the may be "light duty" compared to JCB that I am more familiar with. Also can you tell me how to shift the power shift transmission. It...
