    Hydraulic Fluid Dye

    When its time for me to replace my trans/hydraulic fluid and filters... 1) Is it alright to add a dye while its still under warranty ? 2) If its alright to use it, does someone have a specific brand of dye they prefer, and if so, why ? Thanks

    Voltage output

    Im working with an L2501. After going a couple of days without starting, it sounds like my battery is getting gradually weaker by the sound when cranking the engine over upon a cold start. My alternator belt had just a slight amount of slack, so I tightened it for the first time since I had it...

    Warranty Forgiveness

    I have an issue with my hour/rpm cable not working. I called my dealer and they said it was out of warranty 18 days ago. I understand that they have to draw the line somewhere, but just curious if any of you have had experience where they cut you some slack on a warranty issue, recently after...

    Hour / RPM not working

    Its still under warranty. Has 165 hours. Cable is securely attached on the engine side of the cable. My question is, if I loosen the bonnet (just two bolts I believe), can I get enough room to reach my hand inside to see if cable is secure without removing the steering wheel and throttle grip ?

    Spreading fertilizer, lime, and seed together...

    Thats what my local COOP suggested they could do for me this fall, and I like the concept but I have reservations. I have a small area of around 1.5 acres that I want to plant some clover and winter wheat in this fall. Again, they said they could mix, load, and then spread the fertilizer, lime...

    New L2501 purchase

    Just wanted to mention a few words about my L2501 Hydrostatic. This tractor now has a little over 100 hours. I am very much impressed with all the functions of this tractor. The precision and power of the trans is amazing. Even with the R1 tires and turning with the 4wd engaged (which I dont...

    L2501 Hydro Clutch noise

    What could be the options of noise caused from when the clutch is resting/released and not depressed, while the engine is running ? When I depress the clutch around 2 inches the noise is gone. The noise sounds very similar to that of a rattling, thin sheet of metal, but apparently its internal...

Now my tires being the R-1s then they might have been contracted out to the local Farmers Coop but still... Anyway I thought that I would check the tire pressure to...
