    FEL uses ?

    I frequently read posts about folks that are unsure if the FEL is worth the money. How do you use your FEL ? Well, I thought that I would show an unconventional use of the FEL. O.S.H.A. wouldn't approve but it works well for me.

    15w-40 rotella

    Is it okay to use 15w-40 in my b7500? The manual says 10w-30 or 10w-40 depending upon the ambient temp. What does 10w-40 mean. I thought I knew what it meant until a friend asked me to explain. I know it has something to do with the oil having different viscosity when it's hot or cold. Please...

    Brakes explained???

    Can you guys explain how the brakes work on my B7500. This is my first tractor. I am very familiar w/ automotive brakes but, I sure don't see anything that looks familiar to me. Wet discs? Share the gospel w/ me. Is it OK to mention a B7500 or will TresCrowes get upset?
