    New To The Tractor World

    You say “rear remote” but that really is ambiguous. I think you mean a rear remote VALVE, but you may mean the rear backhoe connection points. A valve will apply flow out of either cylinder hose depending on where the lever is placed. As soon as you release the lever the flow to the implement...

    Front mount flail mower from mid PTO

    You would get a better product by getting it dynamically balanced. There will be a lot of force developed at 3000 RPM so you will need it balanced at its operating speed for best results. You probably could do this all yourself but would need some equipment and probably not worth your time...

    Looking for creative DIY ways to add weight to box blade

    Go to brake repair shop and see if they will give you enough rotors to suit your needs. Then put a pipe across the box blade that will support the rotors. You could fab a few pipes sticking out towards the rear and angled upwards to then stack the rotors on those - a bit more elegant and...

    Advice and pricing for newbie wanted.

    Since you are in a forested area, do you use a lot of firewood? If so then you will probably want to get a grapple to help move logs around the property and to hold them up to saw into splitting length. You might also want to get something to pull the logs out of the forest if you have...

    B7800 Spring/locknuts missing from feedback bar. Replaced and Lever still floppy, bar does not reach spring

    Since it appears that your pins have removed themselves from the holes, I don’t think you need to worry with getting that set of pins. I would suggest that you try to grab the pin(s) you can see sticking out with a pair of pliers (maybe vice grip type) and see if you can wiggle the pins out of...

    Over running Clutch

    Your tractor (probably) already has an over run clutch built into it. What happens when you push the clutch in? Does the tractor come to a stop or still want to move like the transmission is being driven? I assume you come to a stop and the cutter is still coasting down but spinning. That...

    B7800 Spring/locknuts missing from feedback bar. Replaced and Lever still floppy, bar does not reach spring

    I originally thought that the red circle was a broken bolt so I circled it. Then I looked at the parts diagram and saw there was NOT a bolt there, but it appears to be just some sort of nub sticking up. Sorry for confusing you, I meant to say ignore that. If you look at the picture in post...

    How to maintain rear PTO when not in the seat, B2601HSD?

    I noticed that this statement in in a plural tense 2. Make sure the shift levers are at NEUTRAL, and start the engine. So do you have a high/low speed and a separate gear selector? Are they both in neutral?

    B7800 Spring/locknuts missing from feedback bar. Replaced and Lever still floppy, bar does not reach spring

    Agree on the remove one spring and leave one spring suggestion already made. And start with the nuts around the middle to far outside end of the threaded section with the tab back against the inner nut and then the spring holding the tab and nut together. As to the roll pins they don’t look...

    Newbie with an L35

    I meant on the requested and any future hydraulic pressure tests you do, please post a picture of the gauge position. That way there is less problem understanding your results.

    Newbie with an L35

    And just to be clear what you did, take a picture of how it is connected or take a video and post it somewhere and link it to your post (You can’t post videos here.) And just out of curiosity, why can’t you use the cap that is hanging from the tee? Is it a different size or type of thread?

    L5030 overheating

    Is there a screen in front of the radiator that catches the large chaff? If so, have you cleaned it?
