IT LOOKS LIKE THE TYPE OF PLUG LIKE U WOULD FIND ON THE BACK OF A BOAT OR LAWN ROLLER---WHEN YOU SCREW IT IN, IT SQUEEZES THE RUBBER PLUG EXPANDING IT TO SEAL IT, NO THREADS. TRY UNSCREWING IT WHILE PULLING UP ON IT. IF IT IS THAT TYPE OF PLUG, THE NUT OR PLATE ON THE BOTTOM MIGHT BE TURNING AS...

I BOUGHT THE TRACTOR USED AND ALL THE OILS HAD BEEN CHANGED AND WERE FRESH--70 HRS AGO. BROLE A COUPLE OF HYD LINES AND LOST ENOUGH OIL AND WANT TO TOP OFF. DON'T KNOW WHAT WAS USED WNEN LAST CHANGED. THANKS TO ALL WHO RESPONDED.

I CAN'T SEEM TO FIND ANY OF THE BOOK RECOMMENDED OILS LOCALY. SO I'M THINKING TRAVELERS PREMIUM. COMMENTS.

AS I HAVE EXPLAINED MANY TIMES, I HAVE NERVE DAMAGE TO MY HAND AND ELBOWS MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO TYPE. SO I HUNT AND PECK. IT'S EASIER FOR ME TO USE ALL CAPS THAN TO USE LOWER CASE. IF I'VE OFFENDED YOU---SORRY.

IT'S LOW ON HYD OIL. I HAVEN'T CHANGED IT SINCE I'VE OWNED IT --70 HRS. OIL IS CLEAR AND CLEAN. WHAT OIL TO TOP IT OFF WITH? DON'T KNOW WHATS IN IT.

THANKS

ALL MY MANUEL SAYS IS 15-W40 CC 0R CD---I WAS LOOKING AT MOBILE 1300 BUT DON'T SEE EITHER OF THOSE SPECS. WHAT TO USE?

AS MY NAME SAYS, I HAVE A JD"A" MODEL 1946. I'VE USED IT AROUND MY 28 ACERS FOR 30 YEARS AND STILL USE IT TO MOW. I BOUGHT A KIOTI 4010 A FEW YEARS AGO BECAUSE I'M OLD AND WANTED A TPH AND POWER STEERING. LOVE THE A.

ANY TIM A RUBBER TIRED LOAD IS HAULED, THE STRAPS OR CHAINS SHOULD BE AS CLOSE TO HORIZONTAL AS POSSIBLE. OVER THE FRONT AXIL AND OVER THE DRAW BAR.

THERE IS A GOOD VIDEO ABOUT DEALERS AND SERVICE/WARRANTY ON "TRACTOR MIKES" YOU-TUBE-SITE.

I JUST PUT A 12V BATTERY IN MY 6V JD A. IF IT STARTS EASILY, IT WILL LAST ALONG TIME. THE 12 WILL REALLY SPIN THE 6V STARTER. NEVER HAD ANY TROUBLE.

I'VE HAD THAT HAPPEN A FEW TIMES. I JUST KEPT ON GOING AND CONCENTRATED ON SWATTING AT THE ONES NEAR ME. GOT STUNG A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT NOT A LOT. CANT SHUT DOWN OR SHIFT FAST WITH MY OLD JD A. JUST RIDE IT OUT.

THANKS FOR THE INFO.

THINKING ABOUT USING A HORIZONTAL 275 GAL FUEL TANK FOR OFF ROAD FUEL. SUPPLY COMPANY HAS A 150 GAL MIN. I WONT USE THAT MUCH IN 3 YEARS. HAS ANYONE HAD ANY EXPERIENCE OR COMMENTS WITH THAT SYSTEM?

TRY "DAVE KNOWS" HE HAS SOME SCHEMATICS FO DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

IF I HAD REAR HYD, I WOULD RUN A LINE TO THE FRONT TO POWER A GRAPPLE. I COULD ALSO USE FOR REAR TP CYLINDERS. THE THREAD I SAW A WHILE BACK SAID VALVES COULD ATTACH ALONG SIDE THE FEL CONTROL AND FEED THEM FROM THE FEL CONTROL VALVE, THEN RUN HYD HOSES TO BACK QUICK CONNECTS. I GUESS I'M TRYING...

I WANT TO ADD HYD VALVES TO THE 2011 KIOTI 4110.

A MONTH AGO OR SO I READ A THREAD WHERE SOMEONE ATTACHED HYD. VALVES DIRECTLY TO THE FL CONTROL VALVE. I WANT TO GET MORE INFO IN ADDING HYD VALVES IN THIS MANNER. I'M NOT MUCH ON HYDRAULICS SO I NEED HELP.

I USED THE ONE ON MY KIOTI WHEN I NEED IT. ALAS, IT STUCK UP TOO HIGH OVER LOADER ARM AND A BRANCH BENT IT. I WOULD LIKE ONE THAT DOSN'T STICK OVER THE LOADR ARMS. I KNOW THERE ARE SOM HOME MADE ONES ON HERE, BUT I DON'T USE IT ENOUGH TO BOTHER.

I haven't read all posts, but does anyone use kerosene to thin fuel so it doesn't gel.

I'VE BEEN CONSIDERING A SYSTEM, KEEP US INFORMED ON YOU PROJECT SO WE CAN LEARN. THANKS

I HAVE A 2500 SQ.FT HOUSE, HAD A 15 SEER -3 TON-HEAT PUMP/AIT CONDITIONER INSTALLED LAST YEAR AND LOVE IT. HEAT DOWN TO ABOUT 35 AND AIR WHEN IT HOT. I HEAT WITH FUEL AND THE HEAT MODE HAS SAVED ME A LOT OF FUEL. I HAD 5 OR 6 QUOTES FROM 15K TO 6K.

I ALWAYS ADVISE FRIENDS LOOKING TO BUY A TRACTOR TO NOT GET THE BACKHOE UNLESS YOU HAVE A TON OF DITCHING TO DO. THEY ARE HANDY, BUT LEAVE THE TRACTOR NOT ABLE TO USE THE BACK FOR ANYTHING ELSE. RENT A HOE IF YOU NEED ONE. YOU WILL FIND A LOT OF WORK TO DO WITH THE REAR OF THE TRACTOR.

BEENTHERE SORRY IF IT BOTHERS YOU---REALLY. AS I'VE EXPLAINED BEFORE ON THIS SITE, I HAVE NERVE DAMAGE IN MY LEFT HAND FIND IT MUCH EASIER TO TYPE IN ALL CAPS THAN TRY TO REACH THE SHIFT KEY. IT DOES READ HARDER, BUT EASIER THAN ALL LOWER CASE---IMO

I READ SOMEWHERE THAT WHEN STARTING, A MODERN DESIEL WILL PUMP MAX FUEL NO MATTER WHERE THE THROTTLE IS SET. IF SLOW STARTING, IT COULD PUMP A LOT OF FUEL INTO CYL'S TO BE BURNED OFF AFTER STARTING. MY TRACTOR SMOKES MY BARN UP PRETTY GOOD FOR MAYBE 30 TO 45 SEC. AND RATTLES, THEN SMOOTHES OUT...

I ALWAYS CALLED THEM "LADY SLIPPERS" I HAVE TWO SETS, ONE LARGE AND ONE SMALL.

I LIKE THEM, BUT THE ONE ON MY KIOTI IS NOT VERY GOOD. THE INNER ROD STICKS WAY UP IN THE AIR AND ANY BRANCH WILL BEND IT. I DON'T DO MUCH LOADER WORK OR I WOULD BUILD SOMETHING DIFFERENT. I TOOK IT OFF.

REMEMBER IF WELDING ON A PIECE THAT IS ATTACHED TO THE TRACTOR ( OR ANY MACHINE) KEEP YOUR GROUND LEAD CLOSE TO THE WORK LEAD. DON'T--DON'T-- WELD WITH THE LEADS ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF A BERING OR PARTS THAT MOVE. KEEP THEM CLOSE.

NICE OLD CAR.

HI. NICE DAY WE'RE HAVING. I'M LOOKING FOR A SET OF FORKS AND A JUNK ROTORY CUTTER I CAN USE FOR PARTS. I HAVE A 6' TAG-ALONG AND WANT TO CONVERT IT TO A TPH. I NEED THE TAIL WHEEL AND ANY THREE POINT IRON I CAN USE. THANKS

I LIVE IN WATERLOO.

YOU COULD TRY WELDING OR BRAZING THE PLACE IT IS LEAKING.

I SORT OF HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I WANT TO INSTALL REAR REMOTES BUT DON'T KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT HYDROLIC SYSTEMS. I'M THINKING TAP INTO PB LINE, RUN A LINE FROM THERE TO HYD. VALVES, THEN FROM VALVES BACK TO TANK. THEN LINES FROM VALVE TO REAR QUICK ATTACH. I CAN DO THE WRENCHING, BUT NOT SURE IF...

IT'S BEEN MY EXPERIENCE THAT IF AN ENGINE RUNS OK, BUT BOGS UNDER A LOAD, IT'S USUALLY A FUEL FILTER PARTIALLY PLUGED, ALLOWING THE MOTOR TO RUN LOW ON FUEL WHEN UNDER A LOAD.

I HAVE A TRAIL BRUSH CUTTER THAT I WANT TO CONVERT TO TPH. ANYONE HAVE A JUNK MOWER THEY WANT TO GET OUT OF THE YARD. I NEED THE TAIL WHEEL ASSEMBLY, AND TPH IRON. I COULD FAB IT, BUT I THINK IT WOULD BE EASIER TO CONVERT IT. AT MY AGE I DON'T DO MUCH FAB ANYMORE.

FIRST BIKE WAS A 1955 BMW 250 I RAN WHEN OVERSEAS IN THE SERVICE. THEN GOT A 1973 KAWASAKI 1100. WIFE HATED BIKES SO I DIDN'T RIDE FOR A LONG TIME. AFTER SHE PASSED, I BOUGHT HONDA 750. GREAT BIKE, I HAD A LOT OF FUN WITH IT. IT WAS LIGHT ENOUGH TO REALL BE ABLE TO HORSE IT AROUND. NOW BECAUSE I...

AS FAR AS MILES PER CHARGE GOES, THE QUOTED MILES PER CHARGE IS IN OPTUM CONDITIONS, REMEMBER THE AIR CONDITIONER, HEATER, RADIO, WIPERS ETC. USE JUICE ALSO.

I HAD A PAPER NEST OVER MY GAGAGE DOOR A FEW YEARS AGO. I GOT CLOSE ENOUGH TO THROW SOME SEVEN DUST ON THE BOARD NEAR THE NEST. AN HOUR LATER THERE WAS NO ACTIVITY AND I NOCKED THE NEST DOWN. I'VE ALSO PUT SOME NEAR A GROUND BEE ENTRANCE AND IT WORKED THE SAME WAY.

MOST POPULAR TRACTOR BRANDS ARE RELIABLE, DEERE, KABOTA,KIOTI, MASSY FERGUSON, TYM ETC. SIT ON THEM AND TRY DRIVING THEM AROUND AND SEE WHICH FITS YOUR STATURE AND EYE, AND ARE COMFORTABLE. THE PRICS DIFFERENCES MIGHT SURPRISE YOU. UNITS WITH THE MOST MARKET SHARE WILL USUALLY BE MORE EXPENSIVE...

WHAT DO THE BLADE EDGES LOOK LIKE? SOME PRO'S SUGGEST YOU NEVER SHARPEN BRUSH HOG BLADES IF CUTTING BRUSH AND STALKY GRASS. IF YOU WANT MORE OF A LAWN LOOK, MAYBE. GO TO "ASK MIKE" .COM, HE HAS A COUPLE OF VIDEOS ON THE SUBJECT. I DID MINE LAST YEAR, --MY STUMP JUMPER CAME LOOSE-- I TIPED IT UP...

IT MIGHT HELP IF YOU WOULD POST WHERE YOUR FROM.

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN MARKET SHARE THAT MIGHT INFLUENCE THE PRICE. I HAVE A DS4110 GEAR TRACTOR, AND HAVE HAD NO TROUBLE WITH IT EXCEPT THE IGNITION SWITCH THAT KIOTI USES IS POOR. THAY HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH THEM ON DIFFERENT MODELS. IT SOMETIMES WON'T START, SO A LITTLE WD40 IN THE THE...

I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT BUYING A POWER POLE SAW--WHAT HAVE YOU GOT--THANKS

IF THIS IS STILL UP FOR SALE, SEND ME A NO. I CAN CALL. I LIVE IN CENTRAL NY. THANKS

I WANT TO ADD 2 REAR REMOTES TO MY 4110. I'VE DONE SOME HYD. WORK, BUT NOT MUCH. WOULD IT BE CHEAPER TO BUY THE PARTS FROM AFTER MARKET, OR GET A KIT FROM THE DEALER. DELER WANTS ABOUT 500 FOR THE KIT. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A LOT, BUT I HAVEN'T DONE HIS WORK IN A FEW YEARS. 2 VALVES HOSES AND ENDS...
