That is the problem, it will be hard to use it because it is so new and shiny. I tell you what: you put this tractor into a glass cabinet in your living room and you buy a well used one for the work. :ROFLMAO:

I use Lidl 15W-40 Diesel engine oil for the engine and Kubota SUDT hydraulic oil for the HST and Kubota filters for everything (come all together in a service kit at a good price). I could not find any of the oils mentioned in the operators manual and the Kubota oil was reasonably priced.

Hi Paul, thank you for the explanation! I was thinking about a loader as well for my Micky-Mouse "tractor" at some stage and one of the problems would have been bending the front bucket. I have a bending bench, but it would not handle 3mm steel, I think. And you simply go ahead and build a...

Phantastic, brand new ! And welcome to the Forum ! If this were mine I would be afraid to use it, not to put a scratch into the paint of this shiny front bucket :ROFLMAO: p.s.: when lifting the bucket make sure to tilt the bucket forward as it goes up. Good few people put dents into the...

This is phantastic ! To be honest, for bending the round shape of the front bucket I do not think I would want it faster. What is this pneumatic over hydraulics thing? Is the pumping of the cylinders done with pressurised air? Could you connect your tractor hydraulics maybe?

After paint top coat cured I assembled my three point hitch tow bar adapter.

The operators manual says "if the light continues to glow above idle speeds...". I think this suggests that it is normal what you are seeing. The work shop manual may have more detailed information but I could not find that for download. With the worn belt: my tractor had been sitting idle...

Crisps are "Chio" paprika flavour (imported from Germany). Beer is "Murphy's" Irish stout (strangely enough much cheaper in shops in the US than in Ireland). Interval depends on what is been written in this thread :ROFLMAO:

I get beer and crisps ... :ROFLMAO:

You can get band material in various thicknesses as well, just cut off what you need. I use old electronics solder paste stencils for that. Stainless steel material with 0.100 to 0.150mm (0.004" to 0.006") thickness. There is always plenty of solid material without holes in it on the edge and...

The stop solenoid you have stops the fuel supply when the voltage is off. It has two coils, one with very low resistance of 0.375 Ω for pulling in the plunger and a second one with 15.6 Ω to hold the plunger while running. The low resistance coil is disconnected by an internal contact when...

Unreal! And the size of this rock! How long did it take you to dig it out, split it into pieces and move it with the tractor?

I know. But it is also the biggest problem. This is madness: List of Linux distributions The wheel reinvented hundreds of times. As I said: if there would be only one distribution there would be no microsoft any more. And possibly no apple either.

In my opinion the main problem with Linux is that it is open source. So everybody takes a copy and modifies it to suit their requirements. If there would be only one Linux distribution, microsoft would be long gone. I suspect that they actually support all those splinter Linux systems actively...

Yes, tyres get flat spots when they sit for ages. My experience is that it gets better over time, but never really 100%. Maximum pressure helps when storing for a long time. Or move the vehicle a few feet every few weeks.
