Cut down some small trash trees alongside the trail along the creek and chipped them up with the WM WC46. Got all but about 100 yards to do for tomorrow. Took 2 1/4 hours before I pooped out. Plugged up the discharge chute once.

Had diesel cars for 39 years and never used anti gel in them. Will not cause any harm. I use the PS white bottle stuff in the underbelly tank of the Isuzu and use its tank to refill the tractor. I use grease caps if provided but do not go out of my way to buy some to put on all fittings.

Have run diesels in our cars for 39 years and now tractors since 2004 and diesel generator since 2012. They all start with about a 1/2 turn of the crankshaft if all is right, even once at -22 F in Vermont on the old 220D Benz. The 240D started giving a bit of problems when 2 of the glow plugs...

Winchester Equipment Co in Winchester, Va is pretty good, too.

I would not worry about it. I bet it'll actually float on the hydraulic oil when cold and probably drop down when hot.

It'll knock decals off. Too high pressure for engine gaskets. They're only good for the approximately 20 psi of the coolant. Other gaskets are at risk, too, as are transmission and differential vents. Just use a water hose and some Simple Green or whatever to clean it.

Just tilt it up against the steering wheel.

Most often, the need for a sharp turn is not needed on grass or it's grass that you don't care about, like mine at end of a garden row. Even on ZTs, you don't want to do sharp turns because they will tear up the grass.

The B has two pedals with a lever between them. Just raise the lever and hit the brake on the side you want to turn to. My first tractor, a JD 4010 (like a 2019E if made today), would turn right around the stopped rear wheel such that you could end up right next to where you'd been. Great for...

Have to stop and often engage them where they're set on/off to get them to move. Only ever had 1 tractor where you could shift different ranges on the fly.

Like the 4wd lever, you sometimes have to move the shafts a bit where they are to get them to move.

Cut low limbs from about a half dozen trees to keep them out of the way in running the mower. Chipped in place with the WM WC46 chipper.

Age of the tractor makes no difference. I use the PS white bottle stuff plus some Seafoam. The Seafoam addition would be useful for your older tractor as it would clean some stuff. Beware. Like bio diesel, it could clean out the crud and cause the fuel filter to plug. Only time we ever...

Both.

Does the range have any effect on the FEL power? We removed lower limbs on a magnolia because it was getting too big. About 4 of the limbs had grown into the ground for about 2 or 3 feet. Tried one of them with the FEL in M range. Would not budge. Worked on them with a combo of pickaxe...

I'd just use the choke cleaner or brake system cleaner. Kero is a pain to find and store. All kero and jet fuel are essentially the same.

Do any ZTs have turning brakes? They made a BIG different on the JD 2 series 4010 that I had. Could do one row in the garden, hit the raise 3ph lever and right brake pedal, and it would twirl right next to where it was to the next one. However, saw a Youtube video on a B2601 where the guy...

Chipped up the lower limbs cut from a Grandaflora Magnolia that is getting far too big and never has blossomed. Hoping the stress will cause it to blossom. Doesn't look too bad. Needed to be done: lots of sprouts and vines. One tiny vine wrapped itself around the WM WC46 feed roller. Took...

I've never ever had troubles with water in diesel in 37 years driving diesel cars and 18 years of tractors and diesel generator. For the Kubota since I'm taking most of its stuff from the underbelly tank on the Isuzu, I'm doing it in 2 gallons amounts. Easier to lift, etc.

Not misshaped any by anything, just loose.
