Glen, do a search on past threads on "Husco Control Valves". There are diagrams and very good instructions on fixing them. If your valve isn't a Husco, they may still give you enough information to fix yours. Good Luck!

Could you post a picture of the implement you are using? Have you tried lengthening the top link? If that doesn't work, you may have to add some weight to the implement to make it dig.

Butch, you may be right, but in my case I was pushing logs and didn't realize I had bent the curl rams when the logs rolled up onto them. Sure felt stupid and no amount of cuzzing made feel better.

Kevin, I also have a sthil trimmer (about 7 years now) and found it would weld the string also. What I do is to advance the string frequently, even though it isn't worn down to the point that is needs advancing. What I think it is doing when it welds to itself or breaks off is that the string...

Sounds like you've got some bearings that are worn out. You didn't say it it was 4WD or not, either way, if the bearings are gone to the point that it locks up, you've probably damaged the bearing races as well. You'll need to take it apart, get new bearings, races, and new seal. If the right...

Russ, I'm also wet behind the ears when it comes to hydraulics, but I think it will work if you use a bungee cord to hold the tractor's lever in the push position and here is why. My dad bought a M5030 w/ a bushog FEL. The so-called-dealer (now out of business) had simply plugged the hoses for...

Bruce, Welcome to OTT. I'm not familiar with an L260, but be sure to remove either the glow plugs or the injectors before you try to turn it over. Water may have leaked into the tops of the cylinders and it you try to turn it over, it will damage expensive stuff, such as pistons, connecting...

John, I assume you checked the battery to make sure it didn't die? Also, did you clean both battery terminals and the other ends? The similar thing happened to me. Turned out the neg. ground from the battery was badly corroded where the ground was bolted to the frame, even though it looked...

I agree with E/S. I had the same thing happen to my Dad's M4030. Bent both rams trying to use the FEL to move/handle logs. I had to replace both of the curling cylinders to fix it.

Imanirmite, welcome to OTT. I did exactly what you are wanting to do about 6 or 7 years ago. I have an L35 and can't remember which loader it has nor do I remember which adapter I bought from Kubota. I had to measure spacings and pin sizes to find the one Kubota made that would fit my...

I have a '98 L35 with backhoe. I wouldn't say it is "wicked fast". I will agree that the swing is pretty quick, at anything above idle, which is about 800 rpm. Like GWD says, you can feather the controls and ease any of the hydraulic functions into position. I've used mine to put into two...

Mr. K and Vic, a tip of the hat from me also on what you've done to help all of us OT owners. I've enjoyed the heck out of this site and would love to be able to visit it more often than I do. When and if you have time, a video on splitting a tractor would be great. Also information on...

I still have the turf tires and would love to sell them. Below are a couple of pictures of the bolt patterns. The rear one (on left) with 8 holes is the oldest one that is on top of the stack. The other rears look better. The front rim is on the right.

I have a top 'n tilt kit of my L35. I use it with practically every 3pt piece of equipment I have, even the mower. Mine does not apply down pressure because of the way the lift arms work. I also found without any weight of the back of the tractor (even w/ tires filled w/ fluid), the FEL will...

Dennis, I don't have a pickle fork. I've been able to remove the shaft of the ball that has the slotted bolt on top by using 2 large hammers. What I do is to strike opposite sides of the shaft or hole at the same time with the two hammers. The shaft is tapered and the impact of the two...

E/S, there are several sources for a grapple. Here is another for you to look at: http://www.everythingattachments.com/

Handy, that was an old post by Ob1 dated 11/25/09. As far as I know, Dec09 was the last time he posted. On my glow plug problem, I determined the controller was the problem. I'll admit that I didn't clean the contacts as heydannie did and that may clear up my problem. I bypassed the...

Eric, IH was at one time, in the 50's I think, the largest maker of farm equipment and rivaled Cat in production of heavy construction equipment. There was a lot of folks back then that wouldn't have anything else.

Cody, sorry about that, my pc is slow on the uptake. I agree with phildac. Good Luck!

Cody, could you post a few pictures?
