Quirks and Features of the Summit TX-25 | Tractor Walkthrough

[@joeharmon9230]

Thanks for your review video. I've had my summit for just over a month now, and love it. I've put 37 hours on it so far. I did have a leak in the front seal of the 4WD drive shaft, but Summit sent a guy out to fix it. Fox Mobile Repair out of Aiken SC. I'm in Gilbert SC and have the first Summit tractor in the Columbia SC area. I have not done any videos but I need to as I have been putting it to the test in some pretty tough situations. Injoy your tractor.

Hopefully they hang around for those who took the leap. Thanks for the video

[@about12acres]

I hope so too. Thanks for watching!

I went with the Yanmar SA223 ,I checked out the summit but it just didn’t feel like you said (planted) I’ve run stuff that can scoop these little tractors up in there buckets and I’m just impressed with the sub compacts having enough power to get it done I have only ten acres though so I run out of things to do with it 🤷🏼‍♂️☺️

How in the world are you losing so many pins?!😂 Good video; the Summit/Solis twins really intrigue me, especially with Summits sales model through box stores. I really want them to succeed. They've got a good foundation to start on, the Solis H24 is one of the best selling tractor models in the world.

[@about12acres]

I’m rooting for them too. So far their customer support has been excellent! As for all the missing pins…it’s those damn briar vines! They are relentless on my property and will rip up your clothes and anything anything they can get a hold of, like the loop on the pins lol

Keep up the good work! Love me some Doug Demuro. 👊

I think you may be a bit off on your cost for self leveling loaders by other brands. I have a John Deere 1025r. My loader cost me $5,000 and the additional charge for a self leveling was $500 more. It’s well worth it in my opinion.

[@about12acres]

I’m sure you can get them for less, I’m just going off of the quote I was given by the closest John Deere dealer in my area. It was quoted for $6,833 as part of a package on a 4025R

[@W1ldt1m]

Your loader cost $5000 this tractor costs 19500 for everything my Solis with that loader only cost 16000.

[@goredwhiteblue]

I checked these out and they had some positives but the very sketchy situation with after sale support such as repairs and parts steered me right over to Kubota.

[@about12acres]

I definitely understand that. I’m happy to report that the customer service and getting parts shipped over the last few months has been remarkably easy. I will be posting a 6 month ownership review later this month

[@frankwrogg2515]

I saw a video on fluid changes and seemed to be more of a pain than others, but most are anyway.

[@about12acres]

Haven’t had to do one yet but I’ve seen the video and I think you are right, there’s a lot to cover.

[@markmceeachern8349]

Looka like a good tractor. If you were looking into using it for mowing price a finish mower or a flail mower before a bellymower. The rear mowers are easier to take off then the belly and you dont gor to crawl under the tractor to attach the pto.

[@about12acres]

So far it’s been a good machine with exception of a few small problems! I couldn’t imagine trying to hook a belly mower to it though, I’d never want to take it off again haha. Flail mower attachment is probably in my future

[@tclodfelter8789]

I've been on the fence about the 25... they have a lot of standard features ... they were supposed to have the larger sizes out already. I don't want to buy the 25 and have buyers remorse when the larger size comes out.

[@about12acres]

I completely understand and your sentiment, I constantly find myself making big purchases and then immediately a newer version of what I bought announced shortly after.

Ty

[@W1ldt1m]

I chose the Solis over this to save $3500 all I gave up were the mirrors, headrest, and third function diverter on the loader

[@about12acres]

Were you able to get that Solis in the US? I really like that third function on the loader, I can live without the other stuff I guess

[@W1ldt1m]

Yes. Solis USA. H24

[@jamesagnew5607]

I have to get my seat lower I can’t reach the key to start it or I have to figure out how to bypass my seat pressure switch my arms are short .

[@about12acres]

I haven’t been able to get the seat to really move either.

[@olkiedokie3173]

There are 2 adjustments on the back of the seat with 2 big knobs to turn. One is for the suspension/weight adjustment, the other raises or lowers I think just the back of the seat but it may adjust the height of the whole seat, I can't remember, I'll have to look at that again. I'll have to agree on the key location, I'm old and stiff and it's a long way to bend over. I'm a brand new Summit owner and loving it more and more. Rock on brothers! Enjoyed the video.

[@markvaught8884]

If you were a tractor, what kind of tractor would you be?

[@about12acres]

A question for the ages

[@kevinhardin2941]

I would just cut 2 inches off the blade end of the screw driver

[@donaldstrishock3923]

I Closely looked at that Summit Tractor ,once upon a time just 2 months ago. I need a "smaller tractor" to help-out my 4 bigger ones. I realize there is "NO such thing as the perfect Tractor"; thus my "fleet" of diversity. This Tractor very-easily got "Disqualified" upon my observation of it's "BUILD". First-off: what l "liked"/ the Mitsubishi engine, the color,the dual side steps,console loader handle& the self leveling-loader loader. What l ""DIDN'T "" like: was it's "Plethora of ginger-bread", it's Looonngg Extened rear Axle shafts comming out of the transmission housing( seems like a "very-week point"), the "entry-level" measly tiny 2 speed ( range) transmission, the "rather goofy" front axle( it's piviot-point is weird & like no others) & danglinging front drive-shaft. I would give this Tractor a "Real-Price" of 13,000$,& NOT the 19,000$ price that they are selling for with the "Tractor-loader " combination. It sure seems these "rigs" are marketed to the "First time Twack-tor buyers" that have "ZERO " experience with the "Real Tractor World". Of course ANTHING is Better than a "shovel-wheelburo yard-cart",previous format. I could only be "convinced" to have one of these Summit-rigs if the price was "A WHOLE LOT LESS". Thank you Sir for the Excelent vidio and happy safe tractoring. Best wishes with all your endeavours.

[@about12acres]

Stick around! I’ll find out if it’s worth it or not for you haha. Thanks for checking out the video!
