    This is truly one of the best gravel work videos on RUclips. I bought an RK24 back in April 2021 with the backhoe, loader, grapple and box blade. 140hrs on the clock already and have got tons of work done. It’s performed flawlessly.

      Thank you. I appreciate the kind words and I'm glad your tractor has been as handy as I'm finding mine to be.

    I'm doing a driveway extension and prepping ground for a pole barn with a TYM T254. I need to use all my dirt to fill in the low spots in my yard and grade the slope but all the clumps of sod make this less than desireable. I decided to order a tiller and that way I can chew up the sod and the dirt together and then spread it uniformly over the property. Wish me luck.

    You could try using the cutting edge on the back of your box blade. Start with it on levelish ground, that way your tractor would stay level and not follow the all the bumps.

    Awesome job! I have the RK21 with the 4 ft box blade. I've dressed-up my driveway and laid in a mere 15 tons of limestone 2A with fines in areas I extended the driveway & new parking areas. The RK tractors are economical and serious workhorses.

    Nice job. I have an RK55 and have really enjoyed working on it. I watch videos of smaller tractors that take longer to do the job but I also reminded turning around on grass i didnt wasnt to dig would destroy it. Enjoy.

  • @danielmeyer403
    @danielmeyer403 3 года назад

    It's a good idea to "set" the larger stone with a roller to pack it down for a base for your smaller material. That way it also won't want to mix and burp up big chunks while spreading and grading the small rock.

      Absolutely, I'll be ordering more for a parking pad. If a plant has it near you, it can't be beat for the price. But not everywhere has a crusher with the appropriate screens for different size gravel.

    Love my rk24. More robust than my neighbors larger JD. Have had problems with excessive condensation here in central fl causing water to build in the filters and eventually get to the motor. If this happens to you, it's an easy fix. Turn off the fuel valves to the side and front fuel filter. Pull them off one at a time, clean, refill with diesel and reinstall. Take the air filter out and using a squirt can, squirt diesel into the throat of the intake and try to reatart the tractor. You will probably have to do this three to five times, but it will restart. Don't let it's size fool you.
