Anyone want to weigh in on what is the hardest thing on a tractor? I was thinking about this as I was moving snow today. I won't blade snow with my loader tractor or a field tractor unless I absolutely have to. I have a tractor that blades all of the snow but only runs about 5 hours a year otherwise. Blading is hard on a machine I think. Backing into piles, the torque of an angled blade on the three point, etc.
A field tractor has a fairly constant pull on it from the drawbar when cultivating. While it may be a tough pull I don't think it is especially hard on a machine unless you are trying to run too fast or with something too large.
Some folks are really hard on loader tractors, but I use mine for chores and it doesn't see any real dirt or rock work - something a skid steer is designed for.
I know some folks are hard on a machine no matter what is hooked to it. Those aren't the ones I am talking about. I'm thinking of an implement that you hook onto for its designed purpose.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
