And make sure the pin is in the downwards hole so it does not slip out either. (Do not use the upper hole...)

Also, if you want to insure the tractor, your insurance company may want a copy of the BOS, for the actual "value" of the machine. Mine did....

No title in Canada either. Just get that bill of sale signed by previous owner with serial number for tractor and all attachments (for those that have serial numbers)

Check where that 20A fuse goes to. Not sure about the BX25D, but my BX25 schematic shows it only goes to the back of the tractor for "work lights", but nothing plugged in unless you have some other options. The wires should be located at the back, under the seat area somewhere. You may be able...

If a dealer did the 100 hours service, you can ask for a receipt from the owner, or call the dealer and confirm the work was done. If so, it should be ready to go... If it was properly serviced at around 100 hours, the HST fan should have been checked by the dealer. No harm looking underneath to...

Also check the hoses, radiator hoses to be specific. Flush the cooling system and replace the coolant. In some cases, the power steering lines may need to be checked. Also, check your fuel lines, check for any abrasion on them.

You either broke the chain (or it came off), or the 1/4" key (part #21) on the PTO shaft to the chain drive or the key for the fan drive (part #13). Those are the most 2 likely points of failure.

I think it is the same reason as not running 4WD on hard pavement -hard on the tires and drive mechanism. The front tires (in 4WD) are made to spin (travel distance) just a little bit faster than the back, and accounts for slippage when on snow/ice/gravel. Also, when turning, one front tire has...

OpenOffice was the prime free package, but LibreOffice has taken over the development and is the most current (best) version of a free Office package. You get word processor, spreadsheet, presentation package and more. Anything "Google" has tracking software in it, watching what you do all the...

Removing the main fuse would work ok. There is no load on it, and you can remove and insert it many times with no issues. The safest protection may be to simply remove the battery, and bring it back when you want to use it. Or, remove one of the battery cables totally, carry it with you. Not...

If referring to the "tap and buy" on many new cards, there are sleeves that you can store the card in that prevents any proximity scan. They are the same "card shield" as used for newer passports (ones with chips in them). You may even be able to get a sleeve from your local card issuing...

For used, some things to check. At 54hrs, it should have been serviced for the 50hr interval. Ask for receipts for either the parts (like filters), or a service order from a local dealer. If none, then you have to do the servicing, deduct that from the asking price. Second,- find out why they...

I agree, that for the price of a good metric socket and wrench set, it does not make sense to do any "conversion". Just buy the right tools for the right job, problem solved.

Agreed, lets get back to tractors... Steve

You are right Larry, and yes, I took advantage of it because it was there. It is primarily the higher utility prices we have that pay for these systems. The concept, I guess, is that after the 20 years of the contract, they do not pay anything else, I just get credit vs what I use. Also, these...

Can't find that blower in the Canadian web site, but the B2655 (is it similar to the B2650?) is made almost the same as my front mounted BX2750D. The drive shaft rotation is counter clockwise as viewed from the drivers seat. reduction is by a chain drive in a box at the back of snowblower...

Price to sell back to the power people is much better (2x to 2.5x the price than buying) than adding other "stuff", and much better than feeding power to myself. As for "just in case", I have a 7.5kW automatic start generator, integrated to my house, to handle those power outages (propane...

As for the tranny fluid, manual clearly states to "replace the cap" then check again. That implies putting the cap fully back into its operating position. (Page 70 of my user manual under periodic service) The manual is not clear on the front axle dipstick, but I would assume the same logic...

Very "ugly" wiring... Anytime you see bare copper, you are in trouble... Get some good "butt splice" crimp connectors, to match the wire size, and re-do any splices/connections that exist. Weather proof the crimp connectors with either "liquid tape" or some other sealant, then tape them up. An...

My BX25 starts up here in Northern Ontario no problems. -20C with glow plugs on around 7-10 seconds, and fires first and every time (so far). Let it idle 7-10 minutes, and it's ready to go. Key issue is that the glow plugs have to be good, and you have to let the tractor warm up before using it...
