Read articles →This is a short, practical warning clip rather than a tractor review: the creator demonstrates a real problem with third-function hydraulic kits (grapples, four-in-ones, etc.) where the hose can get pinched or pulled taut when curling an attachment. He shows rerouting the hose out of a steel loop and bungeeing it to the frame to keep it clear of brush and prevent damage. Best for owners who already run a third-function attachment and want a quick fix tip, not for buyers researching a specific tractor.
Posted by the Kapper Outdoors Modern homestead channel, an owner sharing hands-on fixes from their own equipment use.
If the hose is routed through a steel loop and the attachment isn't curled down slowly and carefully, the hose can end up pulled straight taut and pinched.
Disconnect the hose, pull it out of the steel loop it was running through, then curl the attachment all the way down and bungee the hose to the frame bar.
Bungee the hose to the frame bar or another point like a handle, after checking how far it travels when curling in both directions.
