    HST pressure tester?

    Thanks for reviewing my video! Yes, I feel the clutch is still good. Correct, I put it in HIGH range with PTO engaged. Pretty much did a brake stand and no effect on the PTO. Rotated as normal. I guess I'm onto HST pressures now. Well, I still have travel, right? I can still limp...

    HST pressure tester?

    Lol misunderstanding for sure! I'm not afraid to say I'm a tractor newbie. That's why I'm here to seek advice and learn. Here I am thinking it'd stall like a manual car or like my massey 35! Haha. I will try tomorrow as we got rained on today. This HST is a different animal. I'll...

    HST pressure tester?

    I'm sure you are right from briefly scanning the WSM. Fingers crossed my hst is fine. Checked Messicks and an HST is now over $7000!!!

    HST pressure tester?

    It's raining right now but I'll be sure to give that a try once it's dry out. When I had the backhoe and loader on, they both felt to have good power when operating them. I didn't have them on long as both were leaking at nearly all cylinders so I took them off. I didn't put them under any...

    HST pressure tester?

    Okay guys, I may have a verdict. Couldn't get the tractor to stall in medium range, revs up, pedal full forward, brakes fully pressed. The revs didn't dip once. Clutch gotta be burned up. The tractor supposedly has 1380h on it. But it looks like all very hard hours as it's pretty beat...

    HST pressure tester?

    For now, I'm not even sure what to buy to test pressures. Can anybody point me in the right direction? As for clutch, the other day I only engaged the pto while in neutral and it spun fine. Revved it up a bit and the pto rotated faster according to rpm. Seemed fine. Tomorrow, 100%, I will...

    HST pressure tester?

    The pto engages and spins when still. With weak slow travel movement, I don't see a point to hook it up and put it under load when the tractor can barely move. I'd much rather take a clutch issue over a worn hst issue! My fingers are crossed that the hst is fine. Praying my weak hst issues...

    HST pressure tester?

    I will change the filter as instructed when performing the pressure tests. Fluid as well. Just need the right gauges and fittings.

    HST pressure tester?

    It's pretty vague when the WSM says "Check Charge Pressure". Which port and where? I can only find "charge relief pressure".

    HST pressure tester?

    Hi, I need to run some pressure tests on my HST. My unit is an L48 backhoe and the HST is extremely weak. I don't have high range. Low and medium ranges barely move the tractor. Is there anything on Amazon I can purchase to test the pressures? I looked up the units listed in the WSM and I...

    HELP: L48 Backhoe with Ag R1 Tires? Sizing?

    Looks like I found what I'm going to get. I'm not in the position to get different wheels. BKT RT747. Comes in the OEM size 17.5L-24. An Agro Industrial tire with more than plenty load capacity. 3500kg+.

    Kubota L48 TLB - cheaper alternatives to factory 3-point hitch

    This is incorrect. A member with an L48 purchased the L47 L3961 3pt hitch kit and verified it all works great.
