I use 2 different mini hoes (they are not Power Trac models) quite a bit. They definitely put a huge amount of stress on things the way I use them when digging through our hard clay and shale. The swinging one can put some sideways stress especially when using it to pull logs sideways out of...

It has happened a few times over the years.

My alternator has always been on the high side, around 14.5V. Even the replacement alternator ran this high. One battery actually got boiled.

I replaced mine with flat face connectors - easier to keep clean and connect.

I am currently welding an 1850 adapter to a 1445(?) 4-in-1 bucket (I wanted the width to be as wide or wider than my tires). Does the bucket bend if you hit a stubborn rock while cutting in reverse? Ken

They are not too hard to replace. There are videos on YouTube.

If they are cheap and aftermarket, they are single coil. I do not know if the two coil ones are made any more. Some Deutz distributers were selling single coil the last time I looked.

The single coil versions have not lasted as long for me.

An additional pair of hydraulic circuits is an upgrade that I use a lot especially with my V-plow and swinging mini hoe. It is also very nice not to have to keep undoing the auxiliary circuit when using hydraulic attachments. I definitely do not regret doing it.

I have one that came with my tractor. I have never used it but you are welcome to stop by and try it or borrow it for a few weeks since we have the same attachment plate. Ken

You could build it back up and machine the keyway back in?

ABS plastic pipe works better than PVC. Steel pipe is better yet. I hate using a rear blade for moving snow. Very tough on one's neck plus yu are more limited in the amount of snow you can move. My favorite is a V-Plow on the loader. All I plow are gravel driveways on hill sides. I use...

I left the Quick Attach as a dedicated circuit. No chance of accidentally detaching your equipment. Ken

I must have not hit return - thought I sent this earlier: Ignition switch hyster-yale 272041 is what I have written down but I can not say for sure it is correct. Ken

Those are the same filter numbers for the PT1850
