    Sickle bar hedge trimmer - hydraulic flow seems problematic

    We seem to have encountered several bad quick connects lately. Can you temporarily eliminate them? The odds of all load check valves being faulty is pretty slim.

    Where to Buy Parts?

    I know shipping isn't free. But, in the past I've ordered small parts, cylinder kits for example, and had them shipped Fedex or UPS which cost double or more what USPS would have cost for packages under 13 oz. Shipping costs have changed since I checked, but in my eBay days, USPS was almost...

    New engine advise

    What RPM do you need? Is it variable speed, automatic idle, or? Is this a one-off or multiples? I'm thinking you might luck into a wreck with a good engine w/accessories.

    Is there a best brand of grapple?

    Since OP will learn that the best grapple is the one you own, I say Land Pride SGC1060. šŸ˜Ž

    2023 BX23S Mower Deck

    I'm not a BX man, but someone may have swapped tires or installed spacers. Stock shows to be 26x12.00-12 turf tread tires. I understand there's not much room for customization on those models.

    b2650 loader bucket too fast.

    The regen on mine is definitely before normal. From a speed point of view it is backwards but the speed is controllable in regen and usually/always I'm dumping the bucket as fast as possible. I don't think I've ever tried to control the speed in the normal range. In OP's case, he'd have to go...

    B7510 tries to start and smokes but won't run after a fuel filter clog---??? Help?

    BTW, check your engine oil. Often, when the lift pump diaphragm fails, it pumps fuel into the crankcase, causing an overfill and oil dilution.

    B7510 tries to start and smokes but won't run after a fuel filter clog---??? Help?

    I'm pretty sure on that model you can bypass the lift pump if the tank is nearly full. At least for a test.

    B7510 tries to start and smokes but won't run after a fuel filter clog---??? Help?

    I'd go back to the lift pump. 'Spewing' sounds like it may be pumping air in via a broken diaphragm. You can temporarily gravity feed the injector pump to check.

    MX5100 Rotary Cutter sizing question

    Excellent choice. We run one behind the Ford, which is 47 hp I think. It'll cut anything you should be cutting with your MX. Ours has a couple of small dents in the deck from someone running over logs or stumps, but it's held up well. It also mows pasture well.

    Engine oil question.

    My L35 and Ford both call for 10w30, which is pretty limited here in diesel oil. I've used mostly 15w40 T6 in both lately. But I did put 5w40 T6 in the Kubota once and could tell it cranked noticeably faster. I saw 10w30 T6 for the first time at Walmart the other day and was on the verge of...

    F3680 Wheel Spin

    I sometimes have that issue on the 2WD Ford when brush cutting, especially when I'm in a hurry and/or the ground is very dry. Adding front weights helped, but I drag a little steering brake on the side I'm steering toward for the best effect. For your F3680, I would check: 1. Does your machine...

    Reviving An Old Acquaintance Buried In The Pole Barn

    Agri Supply has some low-cost quick-connect replacement yokes. You'd have to make sure you get the right size to fit your cross.
