Mr. King, Sorry for the delay in this reply. The adapter did indeed come with a steel backed rubber sealing ring that compresses between the shoulder on the fitting and the machined housing around the fill port. Thread it in by hand and give it just a nudge with the channel locks and away we go...

Good afternoon all, Well, after a few dead ends and a gallon or two of wasted diesel, I think I've got my return port, or lack thereof, situation taken care of. The transmission fill port thread on my M8540 is 1"BSPP. That's British Standard Parallel Pipe thread I'm told. I have a shiny new...

Gents, I cant thank you guys enough for all the info. It appears I have one "return" port on the side of my trans, but two lines already share that. Dealer and cutter mfg said maybe too much restriction. I get that. I looked the rear cover over and don't find a port or visible boss to drill...

Mr. Flip, Are you telling me there is/might be an existing return port on that back cover.? I have been so focused on the side of the trans that I never looked at the rear cover. This might be an option! Thanks for your time sir. Byron

Greetings, First off, A huge thank you to all the Veterans out there that fought for me to be able to be free in the greatest Country on Earth. Enjoy your holiday! I have a M8540 I'm trying to plumb up my FEL mounted cutter. My drain port on my trans is already occupied with two lines from the...

Good morning all, In need of a 6 or 7 foot finish mower. Was wondering if anyone would care to make a recommendation or more importantly, tell me what to stay far away from? Have 2 Rhino rotary cutters in the family, but know zip about finish mowers. Thanks, and God bless. Byron

Good evening All, Well, I think I might have figured it out. This pains me, but per D2Cat's request, I'm going to walk the plank. Tried some more heavy mowing this afternoon, and didn't take long to fall on her face. Unscrew fuel cap almost all the way, no help. Check fuel bowl, always full...

Good afternoon All, Thank you guys so much for the replies! Not used to so much help on forums! Sorry I haven't replied sooner, thank the Lord I have a job though! Ok, it is a DT model, and I see no smoke when this happens. I stopped and bought a new filler cap and filter. Drained my fuel tank...

Good evening, I have a three year old 150ish hour L3240 that is losing power. Happened a couple times now, both when mowing at rated speed, and ran long enough to drop a couple bars on the fuel gauge. And it's hot here, but engine temp was normal. The engine speed just started down and was...

Good morning E/S, Thanks for the quick reply. My draft control is all the way down, per my local service managers instructions. It appears to drop about an inch or so before it picks it back up. You are right on the money on the weight. About 1100 for the old unit, and 2000 now. I have also...

Good afternoon all, Happy to be on board with you guys. Need to pick your brains right off the bat. I have an '09 M8540 cab, 12 speed, hydraulic shuttle with about 650 hours mostly dragging a hay rake. Recently I purchased a 8 foot 3 point cutter. It will pick it up easy even at idle, but in...
