    Rasing\Lowering Snowblower While It Is Running

    It states to not raise or lower the blower while plowing snow. I don't do that, so I'm guessing I'm ok with raising or lowering when not blowing snow. 😌

    Hydraulic leak on Flail Mower

    Yes, my fields are mostly flat. I also run it fully shifted out just so I don't have to run over the uncut grass with the tractor. Not as big in the pain in the arse as your issue but still a pain to have to keep adjusting it.

    Belt replacement

    My flail mower has three belts and upon inspection one of the belts was split open in 3 places. I have a new belt, but the older belts are about 10mm longer with a 10 pound weight on them. I'm guessing this will put all the power on the new tighter belt. Is this an issue or will it stretch to be...

    Hydraulic leak on Flail Mower

    Very good question. Well, the simple answer is because that's me. If the mower is supposed to stay in the position I put it in, then it should stay there. Having an engineering/mechanical mind I'm always looking to make things work as they should or improve the way they work. Plus, I'm learning...

    Restrictor Valve Install

    This what I have, it doesn't have a check valve so I'm assuming it restricts in both directions, which it does appear to do. I have the end labeled 1 conected at the rear romote connector,. I don't know if this even matters being as there is no check valve.

    Hydraulic leak on Flail Mower

    I would like to keep the mower from drooping down. As another option rather than using DOPV's I may try using the adjustment on the restrictor valve first. I could just close the valve from the back window when I have the mower in the position I want it in. I like having the adjustability of the...

    Thank you. Yes, my restrictors are mounted on the hoses at the end at connections to the rear remotes.

    Hydraulic leak on Flail Mower

    I know I'm stupid, but what is C1, C2,V1 and V2? Closing the restrictor valve or disconnecting hoses or whatever OldHokie's recommendation is I think a fixed solution and some others, (sorry I don't understand) are, but I want to be able to control the tilt on the fly being as my field/pond...

    Rasing\Lowering Snowblower While It Is Running

    Holy crap, I have a L2195A with the L2180-1 subframe and have been raising and the snowblower with the PTO engaged for going on 13 years. I guess I've been lucky. Could you point out for me where that is stated in the manual, guess I missed that information. Thanks for bringing this to my attention

    Restrictor Valve Install

    I don't have any info on it but will look into it when I get the make/model # off of it. I'm wondering if because it's adjustable that it may be a needle rather than a check valve.

    Restrictor Valve Install

    I put restrictor valves on my flail mower tilt and shift cylinders which helped a lot. I'm wondering if I connected them right. The restrictor valve body has printing on it for the connections at each end - 1 at one end and 2 at the other end. Does it matter which end, 1 or 2, connects to the...

    Hydraulic leak on Flail Mower

    No more replies so I may have asked to many uneducated questions, sorry, but hoping I can get some more help with the leak down. I have installed restrictors which have solved the quick, jerky problem, but still need to fix the leak down problem. Is the Summit Dual Operated Pilot Valve what I...
