Super?
 
I'm considering buying a super, I'm wondering how well the hydro will handle a moldboard plow. I'm pretty sure it's a 2182 with a 3 cylinder Kubota in it. I plow somewhere around 4 acres every year for deer plots. Any advice?

Cub123 AKA Ben has 2 1782's with plows, he would be a good one to ask. Plenty of the guys here use Supers to plow with.

I think you would be fine, I run mine all day at plow day and I've had zero issues. Here's a quick video of the 1782 pulling a 12" brinly. ( just click on the pic)

Thanks for the input guys but it has already sold. Don't see many supers for sale here in Oklahoma & they don't stay for sale long.

On a brighter note, I've already done some plowing with the 122 this spring. I have to agree that there's nothing like the smell of freshly turned dirt!!!

Best thing you can do is plow with someone else's hydro before you buy one. I have plowed with several supers and hydro Cub Cadets. They are slower responding (lift-constant speed) once the hydro warms up. You will not be able to set the direction lever in one spot and keep the same speed.

I will take a manual trans Cub Cadet any day when it comes to moldboard plowing.

I think you meant to say "not" didn't you, Dale?

I meant to say not.

I see why you get the big bucks.
