Which thread - there are 3 different threads depending on the part of the injector you are interested in as far as I know.

Going by the parts diagram nothing else seems to have been superseded that might be necessary with your new clutch. Before having the old one rebuild, just to be totally confident, I'd try reinstalling the old clutch assembly and checking that the same problem doesn't occur with it. If the old...

The manual I have includes the M7500, dated Jan 1983, code no. 07909-70309-0. The clutch section is pages S.1-1 to S.1-4. Is that the same manual you have? Extract from page S.1-4 attached. There's no mention of a superseded/superseding clutch.

Thanks very much guys, I appreciate you giving up some of your Friday morrning to help.

Aha, so if the joystick has its own pressure relief valve, it would be safe to plug the work port that would normally go to the lowering side (I forget the correct word) of a double-acting lift cylinder? So system pressure would be maintained?

H'mmm, will that arrangement mean that on lowering the single acting lift cylinder, all system pressure gets dumped to the return, so I can't use any other function at the same time - e.g. curl?

What a cunning solution! Thanks so much for taking the time to explain that. I'll find out if the joystick can handle a single acting cylinder.

I hadn't thought of a diverter valve on the curl cylinder circuit. Thank you. Thank you. Assuming the single acting cylinder thing isn't an issue, then if I want to retain the use of the existing valves (for other functions) and hitch hydraulics can I simply insert the joystick supply into...

Top view of existing valves - one-way valve closest to camera. This valve has the built-in relief valve.

Hi Wolfman - yes the loader currently uses the 2 stock valves that are mounted on the RHS of the transmission casing. That joystick combo looks ideal. Forgot to mention earlier that the pump capacity is 7.3 US gpm (27.5 litres/min) so will check compatibility. Not sure if I've interpreted...

I'd like to add a bale clamp on the front end loader of my M4500DT. Currently it has one one-way valve, and one two-way valve both used for the front loader (single acting lift cylinders and double acting curl cylinder). So I need to add a two-way valve for the double acting bale clamp but I'm...

I had a couple of conversations with a guy who came up through the ranks from mechanic and ran a small Kubota dealership last century. I was wanting to know about stuff to watch out for on my M4500DT. He had some interesting observations that I thought were worth sharing with anyone...

Re: Parento Distribution...the rich and the poor Thanks for that. Great video! Thought-provoking. The story about distribution of wealth has been proven time and again by statisticians (if you measure wealth in terms of money or assets). I guess he's saying that the argument applies...

What you say lines up with what an experienced local told me too. When it starts feeling hairy he stamps on the downhill indepent brake and winds on the lock to turn downhill as quick as he can. With an oscillating front axle the greatest roll danger is usually when the tractor is pointing...

Troverman - I'm assuming that at some stage you'll be crossing slopes - but not the really steep ones - rather than going up or down. If in that situation, and if you get a sense that the uphill wheel getting light, do you prefer to turn uphill or down? (Theres conflicting advice on government...

All the advice above is good. Sounds like you already comfortably go up some slopes forwards and it's only the really steep stuff you go down forwards. Obviously I haven't driven your tractor nor seen your terrain, but using wheelspin to limit how far you can go up forwards has my interest...

Certainly I'd carry on with your plan. I'd also formally tell (in writing and verbally) whoever's responsible for public safety - I assume that would be your police or council - of the danger and make sure others know you've done that. Their responsibility to deal with the issue puts them in...

Must try the Brakleen trick, thanks. We have a lot of paper wasps here in the summer, slow to anger but very unpleasant sting. Normally spray petrol at them which it pretty quick (also good for putting down yellow-jacket wasp nests) but anything that works quicker is worth trying. As an aside...

Re: How to deal with bees Plus 'a friend' reckons those suits look pretty sexy on the right body, so it could be multipurpose addition to your wardrobe of amusement devices :rolleyes:

Re: How to deal with bees Get a bee-keeper's suit. I dunno how nasty the hornets are in your part of the woods, but if they worry you enough that you need the safety of your truck, I doubt that Raid will do the trick.
