    3rd function install giving me a fit

    I'm new owner of a low hour 2605h. I'm also new owner of a Lane Shark LS4, which requires installation of WR Long continuous flow 3rd function. I'm not familiar with hydraulic installs, and this install calls for identification of the power beyond port. Is there someone here that can tell me...

    GC2610 TLB fluids, filters, etc

    Hello, I have just acquired a GC2610 TLB, in really good condition, no rust, always stored indoors, 750 hours. Unfortunately the person that owned/maintained the machine had passed away, and we could not find the manual, it was not in the pocket on the operator's seat, and the wife of the...

    tight/stuck swivel ball end on hydraulic cylinder

    Hi all, I have a 3-point "side link" hydraulic cylinder with a swivel ball at one end. The cylinder itself is fine, but the ball is very tight, almost glued in place. The first fix I tried was to use paint stripper to get rid of all paint on the ball (there was a lot). I've then tried huge...

    Another "runs for 20 - 30 minutes and dies" thread

    The SIL has a Gravely ProTurn 152 zero turn mower that has the above (common to many brands) mower issue. He'd replace the fuel filter and it would only be fixed for a little while. We swapped mowers, so I could Dx it. I pulled the filter and found the feed hose packed at the filter inlet. I...

    Dual filters for transfer tank

    Been thinking about adding filters to my transfer tank. The tank is 50 gallons and came from a reefer. Seems two filters would be ideal. Water and particulate. I have a cheap 12v pump that sucks the fuel from the top of the tank. The tube is about 2” from the bottom of the tank. I...

    So, I hired this skinny fella to mow my grass…

    And all he did was complain about my mower. And he had this chicken with him wearing a bow tie! What’s up with that? Good help is hard to find, I tell ya what.

    Anyone Have Experience with Gray Water?

    I have an off grid container cabin. I have a buddy living there right now, and we are trying to update systems to make it a bit less spartan. One of the systems coming online is a 330 gallon IBC with a 12v on demand pump and on demand propane hot water heater. Everyone likes a nice warm...

    Tractor Mfr.s Please please

    I have noted that almost without fail a topic regarding a particular tractor will denote ONLY the numerical designation for that machine, such as MD2020. I bet that many here do not have such ID info ready to mind. Stating that the machine is in fact a "Cockapoo MD2020" or whatever may well...

    My oldest daughter is engaged!

    I knew it was in the works for a while. The young man asked my wife and me for permission last November. I was starting to get concerned with how long it was taking him. I figured he'd spring the question on Christmas... nope. Then thought Valentines day... nope. Then thought her birthday...

    MT2001FD Solenoid ... andstarter???

    My little blue tractor has had a quirk with her starter for a few years. This time, I think it is toast. Light, click ... dead. Then no light, no click ... Paperweight. I tried to take the solenoid off, to start with the most obvious (already did battery clamps) but it seems attached to the...
