I have been trying for almost 2 weeks to get the mouse smell out of this door panel that was partially covered with felt insulation. The mice had chewed up most of it. I used multiple heavy applications of enzyme odor remover, sun, and air. I got out most of the smell but not all. Maybe good...

SmokeyDog built a hydraulic Limb saw - you might find it interesting https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/hydraulic-limb-saw-project.447088/ gg

As John said - a grapple will set them down easy over the side rails. gg

It is August so I have started moving my wood for '26/'27 that has been split since May into the wood shed. Do it a little at a time while I have some shade. gg

Does it have a Lucas DAV injection pump ? I have a Dresser TD7G with a Dresser/Cummins engine. It has the Lucas pump it looks like this I can trace the lines and take some pictures if that will help. The fuel return line goes back to the tank like tinhack said. gg

I see the local Home Despot carries that. Thanks ! gg

How did you get rid of the smell ? I haven't put that panel back on yet. There is still about a square foot or so of insulation glued on to it that hasn't been chewed away. I'm hoping letting it dry and air out in the sun will do it but maybe there is a better way ??? gg

In my One-Ton. So I took the door panel off..... and cleaned this out of the bottom of the door gg

I have two Kubotas both gear drive and live in northern VT with a cold climate and use both tractors all winter. The L3010 I bought new in 2001 and use Rotella HD in it. The M5640 I bought used in 2017 and also use Rotella HD in it. Again they are gear drive not hydrostatic. No problems for me...

I'm no expert at all but have you checked to return line from the pump ?? gg

You’re not really missing anything - it depends on what you do. For me I routinely carry a lot of weight and would rather carry it on the rear which is designed to handle it. Also maneuvering around in the woods is a lot harder with a set of forks sticking out up front than a rear carry all...

That's where I carry my saw gas and bar oil. Not enough room for a tool box though. gg

My trailer tail gate is set up with a hinge at the top and at the bottom. The top is released with a spring loaded slide mechanism on each side. The two tabs hanging down flip up then yo slide them to the inside to release the top. The bottom can be released from the tractor seat via a rope...

EDIT: I see John beat me to it while I was typing - Another method, which I like, is to cut the stem a couple inches above the ground and then apply the glyphosate with a dropper bottle, like a fine spout oil can say, to the top of the stem right away before it dries. The glyphosate is pulled...

I was careful for sure. I found those plants and took the pictures back in 2012. They had already flowered. There were about a dozen plants in the area. I cut the stems and treated them with glyphosate. The next year there were only two small plants. I did the same treatment and have not seen...
