The lock collars are to be tightened in the direction of the shaft rotation, in this case they might be tightened in either direction.

I helped my daughter acquire an old house and then I updated the electrical service. The required inspection for connection had an inspector tell me to run a ground to a short piece of copper plumbing despite the fact that CPVC was on both sides of that piece. The previous owner patched in...

Sounds like you continued to run the tractor without regard to coolant level, maybe the overheating did considerable engine damage. We can't see it from here to make a better diagnosis.

I don't know if it is a fire hazard but I cover oily shelves and line chainsaw boxes with pee pads, when they get ugly I change them out. Luckily I found a large case of them just 2 weeks ago at a benefit garage sale that well may be a lifetime supply.

I would worry more about it turning pink in the hot sun, can you find some shade?

Cutting too much root will kill the tree. Burying a root that has developed some bark will cause it to rot. You may need to go to another option and that is to do some landscaping around the tree that does not include grass or covering the roots with soil.

I would mount an indicator in the spindle and swing it in similar to what Blondi did at approximately 9:40. Of course she had way too much problem since she can't divide by two. Hopefully you have an indicator so you can tram the milling machine head in and indicate the vise.

My guess, mama deer chasing off a coyote.

This reminded me to check the do not call list. Got this response: "You successfully registered your phone number ending in XXXX on June 25, 2005." I changed the number to XXXX, but it is so great that the government is looking out for me. I wonder how many employees and retirees are well...

Yep, now you got it. I can still remember that drawing on the high school shop wall showing the proper use of a center drill. Just so you know, I have been doing machining for the past 62 years and have owned and operated my tool & die shop for the past 39 years. When you need a hand, please...

The reason that I brought it up is that you don't have a good grip on the bolt AND the 60 degree taper on the center drill is the locating surface for your 60 degree live center.

Why would you use a center drill as large as the bolt? I guess that you are going to turn the head down to the diameter of the threads?

Make your own from planks obtained at a sawmill, they will be safer than most plastic or tin ramps from an auto parts store. You can use a rope to drag them to the point of use. Most systems should be level for complete draining, so you should raise both ends.

I agree, my GM stock went to zero while the gubbermint took care of the union to buy votes. Of course those "workers" should keep a pension and I count for nothing.

Did you use an air powered impact wrench with a torque stick? How do you know that the lug nuts were tightened to the proper specification?

Pistons often have a slightly offset wrist pin to help prevent piston slap. The height should be the same even if they were installed wrong.

She has an advantage over me with those long thin legs. 😊

Kubota is good at painting grease fittings shut or not tightening them, so be sure that grease is actually going thru and not just forming a pile next to the fitting. Black moly grease is recommended for a backhoe.

I wouldn't be much help since I never did a delete but I am aware of much of what goes on. Basically a Diesel Particulate Filter collects the carbon particles that can be seen as black smoke, and then burns them when needed. Eliminating that filter and altering the electronics will allow the...

There is an extended warranty on the DEF heater, I don't know if a sender problem is included.
