    Convert Kohler Terramite T7 from Propane to Gas

    I have a Kohler powered T7 which came from the factory with the propane fuel setup. I had a little problem with it freezing up yesterday and, since I don't understand anything about the propane components (regulator thingy, mixer thingy) I have decided to just make my life simpler and convert it...

    Gas Tank Rust

    It so happens that I am here today to get information on how to convert my Kohler powered T7 from propane to gas. I will be removing all of the propane related parts and looking for a gas carburetor if necessary. I have 2 good forklift tanks as well. It seems like we could achieve both of our...

    Moving a 210 Loader Ala Carte

    Yea, I moved it and it went fine. Any dangly parts were a figment of my imagination, the locked in hydraulics made it behave like a brick. Just so this thread isn't a total waste, here is a pic of where the center-of-gravity is. I have a 100# toothbar on my bucket and it was a smidge front...

    Moving a 210 Loader Ala Carte

    That's true, the hydraulics should stay put. I can probably re-position the dangly kickstand part when I set it down. My 2210 is an early 2005 model and I don't know if they refined the system after that.

    Moving a 210 Loader Ala Carte

    So I sheared the pump input shaft on my 2210 😭, and it's down and immobile until I come up with the money for Deere to fix it. The 210 loader, which is detached, is sitting in a spot in the shed that I need for another piece of equipment. I plan to move it by slinging it with my my other end...

    Sloppy 3-Point Bottom Links - What to Do? (video)

    Both bottom links on my Case IH 685 are very sloppy and I'd like to fix them. I pulled one to inspect it, and was dismayed to see that there does not seem to be a retainer clip holding in the ball, and it appears that the entire arm was manufactured as an assembly with the links not being...

    Looking at a BD2F Dozer - What Kind of Tracks Are These?

    I'm negotiating for a BD2F dozer. I'll probably take an expert to look at it with me because I don't know squat about dozers (save that I want one :)), but I don't recognize the track style on this thing. Can anyone enlighten me what their intended us is, and how they would work in clay for...

    A Really Useful "Branch Hacking" Mowing Aid For $11

    I took a chance on the Harbor Freight 18" Machete With Serrated Blade (SKU 62682 or 62683) at $5.99 for something to keep on the tractor to deal with intruding tree branches while I'm mowing rather than making a separate project out of trimming them. The serrated blade on the back side is...

    Water Trough Algae - Pool Shock?

    Algae in stock tanks is a constant problem. It's not a huge time waster to clean, but it would sure be nice if it didn't form in the first place. I have researched treating the water with bleach, but that requires 2-3 oz of household bleach per 50 gal trough, and the...

    Case/IH 685 3-Point Lift Control Tension Adjust, DIY Knobs, Labeling

    Little of everything here: First off, the 3-point lift lever on my 685 requires about 40 lbs of force to move. I assume (hope) that there is a simple tension adjustment for that, but I thought I would ask before I went exploring and broke something. Is the bolt through the "puck" holding the...

    Broadcast Spreader Settings for Triazicide Acre+

    I know, this is a long shot, but I'm trying to save myself a few hours of experimentation. I need to spread Spectricide Triazacide Acre+ at the .8LB/1000SqFt rate with my King Cutter 400 Poly 3 point spreader. Has anyone out there done this combination, and what gate setting/PTO speed/Ground...

    What Is This The Front End Of? - See Pics

    A guy in Hugo Oklahoma has this for sale on facebook as "Yard Art". I find it kind of appealing. Does anybody recognize what it's the front end of?

    Repair ATV Tire With a Bolt?

    UPDATE: Three years and hundreds of miles later, the nut/bolt fix is still holding without leakage despite my beating the crap out of the machine.
