    Left-handed

    I learned to shoot high powered rifles the other way so i can use the bolt action with my right. Reaching over or swapping hands didnt work. Never had any experience with handguns so i really cant comment.

    Left-handed

    Grinders,electric drills. I grind off the trigger locks to keep from locking them on. Why in the world would anybody want to lock the switch on a 7" makita grinder anyway? I have a massive prehistoric drill,locked it on by accident, try and stop that thing when it jammed the bit -Not happenin...

    Jacking up a l3800 one side

    I wouldnt bother with jacking. Keep in mind a little compressor will take a little while to air up. As mentioned, with compressor on, connect to tire. And leave it running to disconnect, this lessens the risk of damaging your guage. Guess a calcium compatable guage is in order. I would get...

    Any chance i could be something like valve adjustment? Set too tight, and not sealing? Unlikely, just askin is all.

    l245-dt drives in neutral in gear locks up and dies

    Cant say exactly what the approach would be, but i would consider moving the idler gears around to find neutral, then reinstall forks to check alignment. If it is a fork issue, it should be obvious.

    Diff. lock petal

    I have to say, that is impressive. We used an atv to pull much smaller wood, twenty cords one winter. My little L1501 certainly wont do that much, but i am considering building a skidding attatchment to pull a bit of wood this winter. I Use diff lock as a last resort, try not to get too rough...

    Help L3800 Starter Issue

    Connect a booster cable from negative post to a starter mounting bolt and try it. Your description tells me bad ground or bad battery. Easy enough to get battery LOAD tested, as some places use digital testers and they are all worthless. A proper load test will tell you go or no go. Or stick...

    FEL and Float

    So your loader does not have float. Pushing lever part way bleeds oil off allowing bucket to touch ground,and pushing the loader lever all way forward just puts downpressure on the bucket-making wheels lift off ground

    FEL and Float

    While in float, the loader will ride up and down, following the contours of the ground, by rolling bucket back or forward you can control how much material you move or to level, drag material while backblading. I find especially useful for clearing snow, it will scrape down clean and permit the...

    tier 4 warranty void

    It was my job to know the products i was selling, as i mentioned, was twenty years ago. If these laws are still in effect, then i am in fact correct. But, twenty years and a lot has changed, mainly the cheap garbage on the market, claimed to be as good as O.E.M We all know you get what you...

    tier 4 warranty void

    I have disagree with Koja's statement that oil is oil. I have had different experiences with oils. Quaker state from day one-short trips sludged up an inline six so bad it plugged the oil pickup. I ran cheap oil in my 88 lebaron 2.2 turbo, rep insisted it was good oil, turns out it burns up...
