Thanks for the posts fella's, much appreciated....after I posted I though of asking that question about rpm's the only experience I have with diesels is with boats (volvos) which recommend 400 rpm below max rpm which generally worked out to around the 3400-3600. Is this the same with...

I have a L3010 bought used with 1600 hrs, from the get go the fel would not lift at idle, but if I bring it to around 2000 rpm it seems to work fine. Is this the nature of the beast or is there a blockage or restriction. All filters and fluids had been changed after purchase. Thanks ahead

Got another one for you, couple of weeks ago my glow plug indicator light was dim when I turned the key on, stayed on for a few seconds went off like normal. I don't think the glow plugs are being activated, if they are its not much. Would this involve the relay? I'm thinking this has something...

Not real sure about brush hogs, but when I use to do a bit of sharpening, I made sure to balance the blade when I was done the rough sharpening (grinding out large nicks etc.) to ensure the blades were "balanced" to save problems with bearings later. Just a thought to keep in mind, if you have...

A.O. That's good advise, and I'll be following that advise as soon as it is just a bit warmer, water is awful hard right now in these parts. -25*celsius tonight, (-13*f) I have a bit of work ahead of me yet, to get this in the shape that I'll be happy with........ with a little help from you...

Your not kidding Kevin, nice to have a good one every now and then.

I don't know what happened but I'm sure glad it did!! Blew out the driveway today, for a couple hours, as well as using the fel, when I was done and was parking it in the garage I lowered the fel on the ground and up came the front end of tractor, did it a couple more times and it worked like a...

thanks for your help Wolfman and KingCreek, replaced the controller and I now have glow plugs. -19* here right now with a wind chill of -30*c tractor strarted right up all the best bic

Can you clarify something for me, I ordered the part #030 as highlighted on the diagram. it was discribed as a gp relay, in that reply but in another reply it was called a controller, did I order the right part. the lady at the parts dept. advised the relay was #020 #030 was $71.00 and #020 was...

Thank you for the replies gents, and especially the diagram ( manual will be here Friday now) guess I'll be ordering the GP controller weather here has been between -20 - -29*c over the past couple days, bit chilly.... I'll let you know how I make out Thanks again bic

just checking to see what is the first place I should start, the glow plug indicator light on the dash does not come on when key is turned to first click. took panel off and checked bulb and it is fine, I don't think the glow plugs are working, tried leaving key on then checked plugs no heat.

Thanks Wolf, I've got a friend THat can probably help me out there, do you you think that is the next step? R is there something else I should be looking at first Thks bic

Hi again, the fluids and filters were all changed and I'm a bit ticked at myself for being so trusting, he advised me that regular maintence had been done and that the fluids had also just been changed. there was roughly 1600 hrs on the tractor and I would be surprized judging by the colour of...

Bought the fluid yesterday and one filter, second one will be in on Monday, change everything over then, see if that's the issue,how often do you normally change out the hydraulic fluid, stuffs not cheap! 4 balls work better than 3 balls :o:o

Back in business with the float setting, but still no "umff" in the fel.

just seeing if this worked

thanks D2cat, I'll head out now and see if I have all my balls :eek: and didn't drop them

thanks for getting back so quickly gents, thats what I was thinking (hopeing) all it was, a ball bearing may have slipped out of place, the decal on the side says LA482 and the plate on the left side of fel says Model LA482 serial # 14720 the stamped plate on the control valve reads as...

Well, I took the Husco control valve off to see if there was corrosion inside, which I thought may be part of my problem with the weak fel. I removed the up down side and checked the spring ,ball bearings etc. it appeared to have been done already by the prior owner. So I didn't (thank goodness)...

Good grief, it appears that I have lost my float position on joy stick for fel, after reassembling.....anyone?? A little help here....
