    TG1860 becoming harder to start

    I have a TG1860 that I bought a couple years ago. When I bought it it had a hard time starting and I installed one of those relays that bypasses the wiring and puts 12volts right into the starter and that worked great. Been running for a year or so with that with no issues. Well starting in...

    Trouble starting TG1860

    So I just bought this TG1860 a couple weeks ago. I’ve used it a few times to mow. Started right up no problems. Today I went to mow and it wouldn’t start. Couldn’t hear the starter clicking or anything. I could hear like a relay or something turning on but that was it. Was doing some google...

    New to me TG1860 needs a little brake or hydro adjustment.

    So I picked up the TG1860 shown below this past weekend for $2000. Has right around 1100 hours on it. One owner has owned it since 2003. He just put a brand new radiator in it and battery. Not a bad find I don't think. The only thing i noticed when driving it is when I let off the forward or...

    Fan/Alternator Belt Replacement- B2710

    Was out doing some mowing with my B2710 when the fan/alternator belt broke. Ordered a new one from messicks. Is there anything I need to keep in mind when I put the new one back on? It looks like there is only 3 pulleys it needs to ride on and the alternator has the tensioner on it. That's about...

    Repair LA 402 Loader Cylinder.

    I have a loader cylinder that has a decent leak that needs repair. I planned on taking it to a local shop to have them fix the seals. This is my first tractor so I have never done this before. Is it pretty easy to just pop the pins holding the cylinder and disconnect the hoses. Are there any...

    RC72-27B MMM gear box pulley issue

    So I bought my 2710 tractor with MMM last year. Today I went to mow and only the center blade was spinning. I hopped off to check it all out and I can see the PTO spinning but the pulley that is right under the gear box is not spinning. It appears to have a lot of play in the pulley like it’s...

    L3901 won’t lift and curl at the same time.

    So this question is for my coworker that bought a brand new L3901 almost 2 years ago. And he said that when he has a load in the bucket that the loader will not curl the bucket and lift at the same time. He can only do one or the other. He said he spoke to the dealer he bought it from and they...

    Glow plug indicator light

    So my B2710 is my first tractor. This will be my first winter with it. I'm curious, should the glow plug light come on when I turn the key to the right but not all the way to the start position. I started my tractor on Saturday and it was probably 50 degrees. I wasn't sure if it's just not cold...

    Should I Change all fluids?

    I bought my B2710 in June with 920 hours on it. I was thinking I should probably do an oil change. Should I also change the Hydro fluid as well since I don't know when the last time that was changed? Or is that fluid good for a long time?

I tried switching...
