Ducks in a row is an expression used by people with knowledge how the world works. I am not walking into a dealership without a good handle on what steps I can take to resolve this- hence - "ducks in a row" :)

Thanks Yander....going to get a video on start up so they can see how bad it is. some friends came over to see it - started it up and the look on their faces - well it wasn't a good showing! my cousin bought three of them brand new and has not had this issue...I just do not want a new machine...

I purchased a zero turn after about a year of looking, comparing and talking to landscapers. well, I pulled the trigger on a 970R with tweels, floatation seat, 60" side discharge. first start up after setting a day or two it will fill my garage with a heavy white oil smelling smoke, has 4.8 hrs...

I have a 70 2520 with 1800 hrs on it.....practically new. I have no other tractor similar to compare the brake operation to so it may be normal......the foot pressure needed for good braking seems very high, also when stopping or slowing a load you really have to use your head and anticipate...

It's been almost a year since I purchased a 620 loader to install on my 2520. I wanted a QUICK attach loader - with a QUICK attach bucket. well I got the "620" loader frames mounted on the tractor last year and was to afraid to lift anything as I felt the frame would break on the tractor with...

O.k. Tx Jim(or anyone else) I installed he power beyond manifold, ran new hoses to the joy stick, hooked the loader back up and for some reason it labors the tractor a lot, it will not idle and when you shut it off it don't "coast" at all. tried it with and without the o/c and c/c plugs. with...

and the joystick I installed - loader I just backed away from. had it on looks good and works well, although I will not lift anything with it until everything is secure.

this is the left an right sides so far

I just installed a 620 loader on my 2520 and have made a few mistakes doing so. first I bought a second SCV (900.00) so I could feed my joystick valve. now, I learn there is a power beyond block(125.00) just for this type of use and works way better than pulling back the SCV lever to run the...

I have a 70 2520 that I want to put a 620 loader on and was wondering if anyone has done this. also, what mods and/or frames should I expect to need. I have loaded tires along with twin weights so ballast should be good.----thanks

If you saw my post of my recently purchased 2520's three point dropping to the floor in a short time, having trouble idling with the three point up at all due to a continuous "load" on the motor due a piece of metal trapped in a hydraulic valve. well I put it on the dyno a while back and I was...

Hey Guy's, my three point will settle from full up to the ground within a couple hrs. with no load on it. I have honed the cyl. and replaced the o-ring on the rockshaft piston and it still settled, removed the return valve and checked the spring/valve and all looks mint. the Tech-manual says...

hey guys, I have a 2520 gas with a new battery, cables, and I disassembled the starter, cleaned it and replaced the brushes. well, it labors pretty hard while cranking it over...it always starts but you would think it would not . not being familiar with these tractors I almost wonder if it is...

O.k. I have an 06 728 that is leaking anti. and I am not sure where it is coming from...dead center just behind the axle center pivot. I will take it apart and find it but figured if someone on here has had this problem I would have a heads up on the problem and possibly save me some...

any one with experience, I have a 1970 2520 I just picked up and the rockshaft drops all the way down within an hour under no load......ideas???---thanks!

I am changing the hyd. pump on my 2520 and there is a factory dimple on the face of the pump shaft....is that a timing mark of some sort?. also if anyone knows the ignition timing that would help as well....I have ordered the parts and tech manuals but was told it could be up to two weeks before...

just looked at a 79 350c...good shape with one big concern, the dozer makes a loud knocking noise when backing up. I didn't think till on the way home I should have tried it in reverse...not just with the reverser, anyway I put it in second gear went forward all is good, pulled back on the...

Well I thought I would post on my recent purchase of a log winch. I have been considering one for some time and finally pulled the trigger. I have a 03 4710 w/ ag tires - loaded, and some good size weights along with a loader. Pulling whole trees or good size tops was a time consuming challenge...

First off everyone will say take it back...local dealer owns the 7 stores around us with a poor service reputation. I would like to at least diag. it myself. the tractor was picked up this morning(brand new) and was used mowing for 2-3 hrs, shut it off, went back to mowing and when the mid pto...

anyone know enough about the 350c dozer to know the year....looking at one with the tag missing and would really like to know the year before buying......thanks

I am looking at a 450c and the guy thinks its a mid 80's....300257 is the serial #on it...can anyone tell me soon...thanks, no hour meter on it either.

clearing snowmobile trail blow downs yesterday, hooked the jd winch to a tree and winched it loose, then was pulling it in reverse into the woods and needed to steer clear of a stump,soon as the wheel was turned --POP-- right c/v shaft went. Don't steer when pulling in reverse(bad things will...

well, I was digging a stump out today with my 4710 w/ 448 backhoe and heard a pop sound, like metal broke?. looked around and didnt see anything, then my nephew asks " was this thing bent before"...shut the machien down and low and behold the bucket cyl. rod was bent into a complete j...actually...

hello....looking for the cranking compression #'s for a farmall 424, three have 70psi an one has 0. seems 70 is way low to me, did find the ratio is 7:1 on tractor data though........thanks in advance

well, last summer I bought a wallenstien bx62 hydraulic feed chipper. after looking long and hard I decided to buy one of these units due to its overall value, I own a 4710 and figured it would be perfect for it. Initially I was sheering pins left and right, checked all the knives, deadknife...
