It's with lift, the heavier the load, more the noise at operating temp. There a couple of things I need to sort out and try with the loader/connections as mentioned.

It seems to be isolated to the loader. But what's interesting is it can lift heavy loads very quitely for several loads or more then eventually ends up with loud whine/squeal when in use. I have not noticed it when using a scraper/ripper under load.

The fluids have been changed using SUTD2. The tractor functions great, it just extremely loud when operating the loader. Can even feel the vibration like fluid is cavitating. It starts off completely quiet and then gets loud after a few lifts of load. Sounds like a common problem, however...

What I'm gathering so far is, air is NOT the issue where continued fluid change is the remedy? I wonder why the factory fuid is not sufficiant, taking they used 46HD?

It's been done and used SUDT2 with change.

As metioned, fluids/maintenance good.

I'm experiencing a loud whine, more so after lifting several heavy loads or digging with loader. It starts out quiet. Fluids/maitenance good. 300 hrs. From my eperience with any machinery, this is most likey casued by trapped air, however I'm not familiar with these machines. Is there a releif...

I did find that more that I use it, the more it wants to engage. My issue is getting out of both PTO's to rear only. I found if I slammed it back hard it want's to engage, so what it's telling me is the arm isn't quite long enough or the fender slot where it hits is keeping the lever from going...

Box blade!

Finding no adjustment for the PTO shifter linkage? I have an issue where when you throw the selector arm all the way back for the rear only it won't engage from middle position of mid/rear combo. If I get underneath and give it a hit at the pivot to push it in a little further it engages...

The drive shaft should have enough angle without hurting the PTO. The biggest problem is the 3 point won't drop low enough to mount /dismount so I use pallets to put it on.

Ditto..... :ROFLMAO: And I actually missed that the FH had a 10lb heavier flywheel. :unsure:

Sounds like the shipping company got a little rough to have those metal bands break. I love mine! It's a beast...... https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/threads/bestco-vlwcx-5-chipper.50348/#post-456345

Thank you Yes 80w90 Looks like it spilled from the breather.

Got lucky, just bought a very slightly used (20 hrs at most) 1285 for my 2650 for $1100, been wanting a tractor tiller for decades. The only thing is I tipped it back with the gearbox on it's side on the trailer bringing it home and it leaked gear oil. From what I can tell it takes a...
