I’m not 100% certain but I think those gold plunger guides will just pry out with a screwdriver, once you remove the control stick and wobble plate.
On the outside of gold guides I think you’ll find a o ring that could be source of weep. Below the plunger will be your control spool which may...
Any chance it was used in a fruit orchard? Possibly the dealer or the owner/owners modified it underslung to keep it out of the tree limbs.
Properly designed orchard tractors always have a under slung or side exhaust. I had to look at tractor data to see that it was originally a tricycle row...
I think the lions share of weight difference is in the Massey’s rear end, really stout looking rear axle and 3pt hitch assembly. I’d be leaning towards the MF for the extra built in weight for my uses.
Been out pushing 6 stump/brush piles together for better burning when the weather is right.
Neighbor’s like to get in on the opportunity to get rid of they’re yard debris 😁
I’ve not had the issue with my Deere’s but I believe theirs a fine screen/ filter in your tank that your fuel supply line hooks to. I don’t think it’s to much of a job to extract it from the outside and clean or replace it.
Old and slow is correct, those outer cylinders that pivot the wing carrier tires need to retract as there what controls the wing cut height. Possibly you’ll want cylinder stops on those two cylinders to hold them at the proper wing cut height
Planted 170 replacement trees where I had taken out some older trees that had seen there better days. Now going through and putting tree guards on and 1/2 a bale of straw to each. Mulching newly planted trees is one of the best things you can do for them, conserves moisture and prevents weeds...
Besides oem JD buckets Werk Brau out of Findlay Ohio would most likely have direct fit buckets that would work.
If you’re machine has a thumb make sure the bucket profile matches up with it.
A pilot controlled machine uses hydraulic pressure to move/stroke the spools in the main control valve stack. This system takes the place of mechanical linkage .
It’s basically a separate hydraulic system known as a servo system. Usually it consists of a small gear pump that maintains about...
You’ve got two sets of auxiliary hydraulics plumbed to your stick. Primary which is always the higher flow set will run any attachments with high flow requirements such as a drum mulcher. Secondary set will run lower flow requirement attachments like the thumb or a rotator.
That 39 gpm primary...
If that machine is a tb 285 or tb 290 your 15gpm is wrong for the primary auxiliary circuit flow. Specs for either of those machines is 26.4gpm/primary auxiliary flow and 14,5gpm/ for Secondary auxiliary flow.
