I was doing a lot of work with my tractor and I **** it off to go eat. When I came back it will not start. I hear the relay clicking, but it will not turn over. I have the seat switch bypassed so it isn’t that. It happens 3 days ago too. I let it sit for a while then I washed it. After that it...

So I was working in by backyard leveling some dirt and I started to smell smell something nasty. With 20 years of experience as a Army mechanic, that smell was very familiar. I drove the tractor on to my concrete slab and and immediately looked at my front axle. My right tire was soaked with...

I bought a NiLight LED set and started the install. I really don’t want to run a wire all the way to the battery. I believe the MT125 has an option of a work light. So that means there should be a 12 Volt wire somewhere in the back. Does any one know where it is located? I’m trying to do this...

I filled my tank and noticed that the fuel gauge is stuck in the almost 3/4 tank position. Anyone else experience this and if so, how did you fix it?

Is there a non metal attachment that I can mount to my FEL for snow removal. I don’t get that much snow, so I can’t justify a snow blower. I don’t want to mark up my concrete slab and asphalt driveway with the metal bucket blade. It would mount to my MT125 FEL.

If you ever come across your MT125 engine will not turn over and you know your battery is good. Check your wiring at your starter. There is a wire that attaches to the starter that is not held on by a bolt or nut. It just slips on. I ran over some small tree limbs and one of them must have...

I found a site where you can purchase a service manual for LS tractors. I purchased one for my MT125. It cost $49 for the download. Google Durattach and the site will come up. No parts manual though.

So I found this bolt laying on my floor board. Had no idea where it came from. The other day I noticed that my seat was kind of flimsy. Upon further inspection I noticed a bolt missing on the hinge that allows the seat to flip up. This is for the MT125 that has the backhoe. It’s a different...

5 more hours before my 50 hour service. I will replace the two hydraulic filters and oil filters. Along with looking for more loose nuts and bolts. Should I remove the BH and FEL to do the service or can I leave them attached? Also is there anything else I should be looking for that you...

I had my MT125 for a month and a half now. Although I still like my tractor, but I can’t help to list some issues. For those who have or will receive your tractor soon, Go over it with a fine tooth comb. I found a second pin missing on my front end loader. This one was to the FEL...

So I posted before about the free travel on my FEL Joystick. Supposedly if there is any problem with the valve, you replace it. Well LS is out of stock. I asked my service rep if the valve has to be turned back in when replaced because I want to tinker with it a little. He told me...

I wrote before about the excess play in the FEL Joystick. I am trying to add a video. I’m not sure if it will load but here it is. FEL Joystick - YouTube The problem is not the stick itself being loose. The dealer had to order a new FEL valve. If the video does not work, please someone...

I stopped by my dealer today to let them know they have to replace my control valve for the FEL. I noticed in the Op manual for the Loader LL1101 that you have an option for a quick attach. See pic. Does anyone know if the bucket that came with the tractor will work on the quick attach or...

Has anyone had any luck locating parts and service manuals online for the MT125? I seem some old posts, but seem to get nowhere. I’m looking for components to the FEL Joystick valve.

I already put 30 hours on my MT125 and want to share some of the problems and likes that I have. Problems: Control valve for back house had a lot of play and the stick itself became loose. There were four hex head bolts that were loose which caused the free play. I also tightened the nut on...

I noticed that something was not normal with the switch. I thought when you get off the seat when the tractor was running and the brake is not set, the engine is supposed to shut off. It did a few time and a few times it didn’t. A few days ago when the tractor was running as soon as It...

So I am still waiting for my LS MT125 and I enjoy reading all these posts since I cannot be working on my yard tasks yet. I see that some people have their tires filled. Would that be beneficial to a MT125 that is equipped with a FL and BH? Seems like that would be enough weight already...

So after a lot of research on subcompacts, I bought a MT125. Unfortunately it’s been over a week and it hasn’t arrived yet. This is the first time I purchased something without seeing and touching it. The dealer is about 20 miles from me and the next one after that is 75 miles. Neither...

I bought the MT 125 without the MMM because I have a mower already, but it’s not going to last much longer. Many people are buying the zero turn mowers because of the speed. I can’t justify paying 4 to 5 thousand on a zero turn when I can add a MMM for more than half that, but how does the...

My new tractor will be arriving next week. It’s a MT125 with a Loader and Backhoe. My problem is there is no where to store it to keep it away from the elements. I know my wife would not like it if I take her car out of the garage and move the tractor inside. Is anyone keeping their...

I am thinking about buying a used Ransomes Bobcat 61 in Zero turn mower. the problem is I don't know the model. All I know is its a Ransomes Bobcat 61 In with a 23 HP Kohler engine. It seen pretty old but I dont see an data on it. I noticed a lot of the Ransomes Bobcats have a Kawasaki...

I am looking to by an old Massey Ferguson Tractor. It has a front-end Loader MF 34 L8110 and a Backhoe MF 54 Serial 1409007324. I believe it is a Massey Ferguson Tractor 35, but I am not positive. It is yellow and the serial number is 9A 173806. I am not sure if the "1" is a T or an I. (See...
