    3 Pt. Rotary cutter with a hydraulic rear end

    What width are you looking for? I believe they are called semi mount, any that design would cost more than a standard 3pt one. Most are semi mount due to the weight and being able to manipulate them around differently than a pull type.

    L2501 Overheats under load

    I would say it’s probably fine. But it’s almost ten years old and the manual states to change coolant every two years. So couldn’t hurt. On my L3800 one year I had to remove the radiator to get it completely clean. Mud, dust and grass seeds had become packed into the radiator even though it...

    L2501 Overheats under load

    As said above make sure there isn’t debris in the radiator fins. Also check the fan belt tension, it can’t cool off if it can’t move air across the radiator.

    Low RPM on PTO

    Every time I’ve ran a PTO spreader I’ve ran it lower than 540. You didn’t mention if your tractor is a gear drive or HST. Gear drive just pick the best gear for travel speed that shows good results from the spreader. HST I’d keep it at least 1500 rpm or higher just to help with hydraulic flow...

    M5400 won't start, have changed most everything

    Not 100 percent sure but on that model the neutral safety switch should be in the F-N-R lever. Not internal to the transmission. I’d recommend downloading the WSM(shop manual) for your model to help troubleshoot. Might be able to find it online or some members on here might be able to send you...

    Dealer runaround?

    Didn’t that model have a bulletin about fuel pump issues? Sounds like they are correcting it before you pick it up. One week delay? Are you going to cancel from them and then try to find an exact model at a different dealer then wait again for it to be ready? Not that long ago people were...

    Radiator Recovery Tank leaks

    I repaired a small hole in a plastic gas tank on a ZG127 with two part epoxy made for plastic. Not sure which brand it was though. The repair was solid and held for several years until I sold the mower.

    BX1500 Diesel running cold.

    Sounds like two separate issues. Stalling more than likely is a fuel issue. Does the temperature gauge move at all when you turn the key on? Find the temperature sensor and see if the wiring is still connected.

    If it happened right after you installed new filters what are the chances you damaged a sensor or wiring?

    MX 5400 Canopy mounted fan

    That’s why I added wired and fused correctly. All of mine have been added with auxiliary fuse blocks with proper wiring, relays, and switches.

    MX 5400 Canopy mounted fan

    I’ve ran one on all three tractors that I’ve had. As long as it’s wired and fused correctly. Just give enough room between the fan and the roof so it can draw air in to be effective.

    M7040 shuttle problem

    Maybe you missed it. You do not need to remove the tire to drop the fuel tank.

    M7040 shuttle problem

    I will add you can remove the fuel tank without removing the tire. Even though the instructions state to remote the tire to drop the fuel tank. I installed a creeper gear set on my M6040 right after I bought it, I did have to remove the fender though. Full access to the shuttle valve.

    Looking for Weight Rack and Suitcase Weights

    Also look at Tractorweights.com. What machine M7060? Do you have filled tires? Wheel weights not an option?

    Published weight

    I hauled a L3800 with a FEL and implement for 10 years on a 18’ 7k lb trailer. I believe the trailer weighed 2100lbs. I now have upgraded tractors and trailers. Never did weigh that tractor and implements though.

    Stabilizer on my L4802

    Not all tractors have the stabilizers on the outside of the lift arms. Your tractor must be brand new or you have never used the pin style. There is a reason they are standard on deluxe and larger models.
