It's called, "hydraulic locking". It can happen due to a few issues with the hydraulic system. 1. Condensation buildup in the hydraulic fluid and freeze in the Winter time, which willcollapseahydraulicfilter. 2. Condensation buildup in the warmer months can cause rust buildup that's carried into...

Not many people on this forum seem to understand that concept. That's a problem I've had with my New Holland. Condensation buildup is a common problem. I had a collapsed filter several years ago and I just had that symptom occur again about a month ago. I have to do a full drain an replace all...

I have a couple of questions for you. 1. Does your tractor have a hydrostatic transmission? 2. Did you buy it brand new? 3. Did it set on the dealer's lot in the Winter before you bought it? Filters can and do collapse inside. It's caused by condensation buildup in the hydraulic fluid which can...

Thank you for the info. Knowing the name of a product will help. Thanks!

Thank you for the info. I'll call a local dealer to see if they have it.

Would anyone know of an additive that can be added to the hydraulic oil in my New Holland 1530 Boomer compact tractor that lets you see where oil is leaking? Preferably something that can be seen with UV light. I have a slow leak; maybe more than one, but I can't tell where the source is. One...

That's a good idea. I'm planning to build a real platform that's set on posts, about 5-feet high; with blocking all around the edge of the platform to keep the mower from rolling off, and a hole in the center of the platform that exposes everything between the tires. We don't have a garage or...

I did the same thing to my Cub Cadet about a week ago. I hit a piece of cut-off wood about 4 inches in diameter while mowing taller grass. The blade bent right down just like your blade. Unfortunately, the new OEM blades I ordered had the incorrect hole style for the spindles on my mower...

I've seen tire roller systems used to pack crusher run for gravel driveways, but nobody has them where I live. They're also really expensive. I used to just put my bucket down at a very slight angle set to float, when I back down the center with my scraper blade, forming the crown and the bucket...

The shale packs like concrete, but we can't buy it where I live. I don't use river stone, because rounded stone tends work against packing. I've seen a lot of people using shale in the Northeast. They also have natural gravel pits up there from the glaciers, so they don't use crushed stone since...

It would be a waste of money. In a steady or heavy rain, the stone dust will just wash away. What grade of gravel are you getting? If you're getting 57's, what I do is put fill dirt on top of the stone before you grade and crown it, and that material will mix in with the stone and it will work...

I have a New Holland Boomer 1530 Compact Tractor. I would never waste the money on a stump grinder, because under 25 HP it will take you all day to grind a real stump. You should be looking at over 40 HP for that. A 5-foot flail mower would max out a 25 HP tractor. Better you use a 48-inch...

I have a 1999 New Holland 1530 with 419 hours that has a similar problem. It just happened with today's snow storm 1-23-2016. My tractor started and was idling and then just stalled out. I tried to start it again and it almost fires, but then just cranks. I had the same problem in a big snow...
