I have an Iseki 1700TU. Been a good running tractor however this winter while I was using it, a leak developed. After it warmed up to where I could get outside for longer then 5 minutes I found that I had a hole in the bottom of the transmission case. It looked like there was a bolt laying...
Winter was not kind to my Iseki. I was using it to get rid of snow when I noticed a puddle of oil underneath. I checked the hydraulic/transmission fluid and it was way low. Parked it and the next day, purchased a 5 gallons of fluid. As soon as I poured it in, it started leaking again. Got it...
Man, talk about a pain. Never, ever run your tractor on empty. It too me a day and finally changing the way I was bleeding air to get my 1700 started. I loosed the 2 screws on the filter. No problem there. The problem was that to bleed the injector I was removing the nut that held the bleed...
I'd like to get feedback on an idea to modify the hydraulics on my Iseki tractor. At the present, it has an FEL that looks like it was tapped into the existing main hydraulic line. The main looks to be about 3/4 of an inch and the FEL lines look to be 1/4 inch. Adapters were used to drop the...
Just bought a used Airco 225 amp arc welder. $60 total with a package of 6011 rods. Decided on the stick welder because I'll be outdoors and didn't think a mig would work with the wind and such. Anyway, I've been unable to find any information about this welder on line. On the front it says HD-1...
Jeez, if it's not one thing it's another. These tractors are like boats. Anyway, I got some good advise on the Bulldog loader I have on my Iseki. Whats going on now is I had purchased a 5 ft finish mower in rough shape. I restored it and went to attach it to the tractor. The problem is the PTO...
I have an Iseki with 8.3-22 Rice tires on the rear and 6-12 on the front. I'm finding out that it's tough and expensive to find turf tires this size. I've noticed that a common size seems to be a 24 inch rim on the rear and a 14 inch on the front. It looks lile I have a 6 lug design. Do the...
I have a Bulldog 285 Loader on My Iseki. In the process of digging the loader arms crimped and buckled. When I got the tractor the arms had spots where the arms appeared to have a crimp to get them twisted enough to attach to the front mount. The angle from the rear to the front is about 30...
I have a Bulldog 285 mounted on an Iseki 1700FD Tractor. What happened is that the loader support arms going to the front loader mount have flexed and bent under load. And not much of a load at that. They seem to be a thin gauge steel bent in a U shape. They are welded to the rear upright and...
I was using my tractor on and off today to take down a shed and do some grading. This afternoon it started acting like it was out of gas. I immediately shut it down and put gas in the tank. Not it starts but sometimes idles rough and will not throttle up when I give it gas. Geez, I only put 2...
After feeling my 1700f start going over sidways while I had a load in the FEL I'm thinking I need a ROPS. After seeing the prices I'm kicking around building one. It looks like I can secure it to the rear axle mounts by using a flat plate. Then weld a U shaped piece to them. Right behind the...
1st time tractor owner and bought a used Iseki 1700F. The Front End Loader is a Bulldog 285. Only had the joystick come off and a mounting bolt pop loose on the loader. Got the operators manual from Leonard at Town and Country. Nice people there. So for the question. I have 4 dash lights. A top...
