I've disassembled one side after the snap ring failed and the wheel fell off. I've replaced the bearings, axle, and cover. But during the reassembly, I'm just stymied on how to get the two seals where they belong. According to the expanded view, PN 17 should go between the inside of the cover...

Since early last year, I have noticed a decrease in speed and power. Having no other point of reference other than my memory, I just figured I wasn't remembering properly. By September of last year, it got to the point that I really felt something was wrong. I spoke with the service manager...

Right up front, let me say this is operator error. I did not know checking the loader bracket bolts was something to do - but will from now on. After having been told by several internet folk I should have RTFM, I did just that, but found no specific reference to the loader bracket bolts, or...

I don't know what it's called, but I managed to bend/snap the shaft. It's from my 2016 2555CL HST Anyone know the part number or what it's called? I'm striking out trying to find it on Google.

I was helping to clear some <2" pine trees for a neighbor for the last two days. At some point, the hitch bar on my tractor worked itself loose, lost the pin, and dropped into the mow area. I saw the shiny round hitch ball and thought, "That's an odd place to put a Christmas ornament."...

I drove my tractor about 2 miles, WOT in H with backhoe attached. Route is slightly hilly, and it seemed to slow more than normal. By the end of the trip I smelled burning plastic/paint. Upon further inspection, I found the tranny on the left was hot enough to sizzle spit. The paint is gone...

My 2555 cab hst was running about an hour doing box blade work on driveway. No hiccups. When I should it off, about 10 min later when I tried to restart, it just cranked and cranked. After a solid 20 seconds of crank time, it started to fire. I got it up to speed but as soon as I dropped it...

This probably won't get most excited, but for the gadget geeks among us, it may be a worthwhile mod. While a plug-in power adapter to USB charger is certainly an option (they even have the kind that will provide power readings), I wasn't having much luck with mine staying put. Whether...

It's embarrassing, but I'm left scratching my head after reading the manual. There's mention of motor oil port (and dipstick), as well as transmission oil dipstick. But what about hydraulic fluid? Is it safe to assume the HST transmission uses the same hydraulic fluid as what lifts loads...

I know, I know, it doesn't look dramatic on video, but sitting in the cab sure left an impression. I was going nice and slow with 1540 lbs of concrete bags on a plastic pallet. I was going to go left, but the drive slopes ever so slightly to the right. In an instant, the rear tire was up and...

Rather than blindly buying something I think might work from Amazon, I thought I'd ask the community - what do you guys use to blow air from the engine-side of the radiator to the outside? I'm assuming some kind of wand with a 90ｰ tip? Looking to thoroughly clean all FOUR of the stacked...

Two troubleshooting posts in a row! When it rains, it pours. Just waiting for the third problem to pop up... As ambient temps got above 80ｰ, I started using the AC. When I shut the engine off, and restart it within a few minutes, if the AC switch was left on, the AC belt would start to...

Today I used the tractor to remove a gravel pile that was used as a berm to seal off a secondary driveway entrance. When I put her away, I noticed oil just below the driver's side engine panel, on the frame. Upon removing it, I found what looks like a leak on one of the FOUR coolers stacked...

When I bought my second-hand 2555CL, it came with about 10 implements, including a 1986 Woods BH7500-1. It had a leaking hose - which I've replaced - and the boom cylinder is bent (but functional). The dipper cylinder has an internal leak that lets it drop about 1" per second. The power to...

I recently moved to BFE in middle-TN. I need to find a supplier of raw metal supplies (tubing, channel, angle, etc), but haven't a clue what to search for on the web (or phone book, for that matter). I searched Google maps for welding supplies, metal suppliers, etc, and the results are for...

So I had a toy barn built and am in the finishing stages. I had a load of gravel dropped and used my 2555 to spread it out in the dirt between the concrete apron and the existing gravel loop. It took me about an hour to get it reasonably level using the loader and box blade. But, as I'm doing...

Taking 2555 to dealer for final trip before warrant expires...suggestions? I have less than 30 days remaining before my 2-year bumper to bumper warranty expires. I'm going to be trailering my 2555 there later today. The dealer has asked that I compile a list of all the things I want them to...

May just be a case of extreme noobness, but today was the first time I had the bucket filled with 1/2" gravel. It was heavy, but not enough to lift the rear tires off the ground. When I got to the point where I wanted to drop the load, I needed to inch to the left. As I tried to turn the...

Searching for leaking couplers, quick-disconnects, fittings, etc provides an overwhelming number of false positive results. I apologize if this is a commonly discussed issue - but I couldn't find it. I noticed today that one of the four FEL QD hydraulic fittings has a pretty good drip going...

Approaching my 2 week anniversary with this (my first ever) tractor - and I bought it w/o a manual (still need to order one from dealer). I've watched countless YT videos from various owners and dealers going over the different controls and functions, and few addressed what it does - and those...

New to tractor ownership (< 2 weeks). Discovered a line of fluid (oil?) running from rim to ground on the inside bottom of the front DS tire. Haven't had a chance to get a close look. I don't have a trailer to haul my tractor, and the dealer is about 40 min away. I still have 4 months of...

I purchased my first tractor less than two weeks ago. It came with about 9 different implements - most of which were in pretty bad shape - rusty, bent, neglected. This is the first time I've ever touched a PTO shaft. The bushhog and power auger both use the same type of telescoping shaft...
