Swallows are endangered here. Occasionally see barn or cliff swallows.

It may also be branded as an Arps loader - the predecessor to the Ameriquip name. My FEL has similar designed towers and it carries the Arps name on a very faded tag. Regardless, your local hydraulic shop can help you, it's pointless trying to track down the original parts numbers as Ameriquip...

Sheet metal?

Used the backhoe to dig out some wild currant bushes from the back 40 and transplant around the yard. Then dragged some logs to block off a trail (private property) that has been used for dumping, and did some cleanup.

I run Shell Rotella T6 in all my diesel engines. I would even dare say that the second L245 I bought and fixed up sounds quieter with the Rotella.

Those $150 clamp on forks have been the best investment. So nice to move or lift lumber and OSB around as I work on the backyard bar.

Given the similarity between the L185 and the L245 you may be able to find more options. Try the Messicks parts finder and check part numbers - it will show what tractors they were used on. Then try West Kentucky Tractor Parts, or get in touch with Lance on here for a replacement. Maybe start...

And an easy process to do so too! My L245 had been rolled and then dragged next to the barn and left for 4-5 years before the owner needed to clean the place up to sell it and listed the tractor for sale.

Can you get a manual? There may be an adjustment procedure?

My tractor has been contributing to my backyard bar build. Snagged a lift+ of 16' 2x4s salvaged from a lumber truck fire for pennies, and framed it all in. Putting the sheeting on now. Next is electrical and plumbing (even found a urinal!). Then windows and siding. Loving this self...

Nothing else changed? Have you run the tractor for a few minutes to get air bubbles out? Is there a speed adjustment valve for the 3 point hitch that is closed (on my tractor is it right in front and below the seat)

Re: B7100 4WD For Sale Sometimes a border run is worth it. With the current panic going on, now isn't it.

The L225 with the loader should have a subframe. The idea for the backhoe is to tie into that subframe and create a 4 point mounting bracket.

On my tractor, the ROPS bolts into the 3 point hitch toplink bracket and the pto guard bolt holts. Those parts then bolt over top with longer bolts. On the L245 that's 8 bolts.

Bought a lift of salvaged 2x4x16s that where from a lumber truck fire. Used to forks to unload a them - 50 at a time. A steal for all my framing lumber for my projects around here this year.

I've seen those rice paddy tires on the grey market models that are regularly brought in locally. Those are insanely rugged! Not saying don't get them, but don't use them on your lawn.

Did the L260 have a similar arrangement to any other model? You may need to try to make/bolt on a template of plywood/cardboard to sort out the layout otherwise.

Left of your drive transmission lever is the PTO range lever, with 3 speeds. If not, check your data plate (also right side) for model #. I bought an L225 once with a L245 hood and decals - took me a couple days to figure out why it was different from my L245 haha!

All good advice here. My L245F had not run in 5 years, and fluid and filter changes were all that were needed, but I also did fuel lines and checked over all the points above. Worth a try for starters.
