When I bought my L3901 the dealer told me if you ever want to run chains the wheel spacer are required if you are running R4's. There is not enough chain clearance to the fenders with out them.

I attached a Fisher push bar from a 1971 International scout and a 7-1/2 foot fisher plow to a SSQA plate with third function hydraulics, it plows my 340 foot driveway with no real issue. I wanted my plow to have down pressure for back dragging snow from my under the house garage driveway so I...

I use Shell Rotella 15-40 in my 2007 Motor Coach with a Cummins, 2004 Dodge Cummins PU, Onan diesel generator, and now my second Kubota. Never had a starting issue, all my vehicles are kept in unheated garages or barns. I add anti gel to the fuel and keep battery chargers/maintainers on all...

I wrap all my Cedars and Yews with burlap to about 6-7 feet, last year there was no feed in the woods here and the snow came early, about a month before I usually wrap the shrubs and the deer trimmed them real well in one night. I suspect it will be two to three years before the shrubs fully...

Many years ago while standing on the side of a steep mountain side deer hunting I hear the sudden and loud sound of a jet engine, I looked up and I didn’t see anything. I then glanced down as a F-16 passed below at a guess of 100 feet off the tree tops, a few seconds later a second F-16 passed...

I made my own boom pole to fit on a SSQA plate. It is made from sch. 80 - 2" x 10 foot pipe with a welded 1/2" x 2" lower flat bar and rebar reinforcing and 1-1/4" support pipe. It will lift rail road ties rated at 200-300 lbs. each with ease.

I've posted my version before but here it is again. It is made from Uni-strut and sleeved with wood. I have since added a top brace bolted to the FEL hyd. valve support to control vibration, not shown in these older photos.

Those so called cup washers are most likely Bellville Washers, they are springs. See the below Wikipedia address for further explanation, changing the spring orientation to each other changes the spring washers characteristics, i.e. holding power/compression...

Before adding shim check the placement of the HST switch lock nut. If the lock nut is located on top of the bracket it is assembled incorrectly from the factory, From your photo that appears to be the case. The lock nut should be on the bottom of the switch bracket allowing the switch to sit...

I had a similar issue with my L3901 tractor quitting and not re-starting. The tractor would not crank and all dash indicators worked as they should and there were no codes. As a diagnostic tool my dealer had me crank the engine while wobbling the HST treadle pedal it always restarted. The...

If it is not the Seat or PTO switches check the HST “Switch, Over Drive”, item 060, PT # T1853-42790. See my previous post, I had the similar issue when dismounting my tractor, using the parking brake never made any difference...

Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong, my understanding is if you are fortunate enough to be able to thaw the paraffin wax build up in your fuel lines or filter with the fore mentioned hot water or PS 911 and get the vehicle running, you had better before the next freeze replace the filters with...
