Hey all,
Longtime lurker/new poster here.
I have a new-to-me Ford 6610 Series 2 with a Great Bend 570 loader. It has, what I believe to be a Gresen 2702 hydraulic valve controlled remotely by a crude and very worn homemade joystick and cables. The joystick has a momentary push button on the...
I looked up the trouble shooting in the PDF service manual. It seems it is more complex than I would have thought it was. The tractor had been sitting for sometime before I brought it back to life. I told the owner to hook his bush hogg to it and just run it and see if it frees itself up. I know...
A friend of mine had his tractor and baler burn do to a bad bearing. He bought a ford 6610 4wd from a neighbor at the suggestion of the tractor repair shop. The repair man needs to retire IT WILL NEVER GET FIXED. After 3 months he checked the compression and nothing but bad news. I picked the...
I've got what I believe is a 1978 model, I'm attaching photos in hopes someone can clarify for me. We've had the injection pump rebuilt at a reputable shop. The young man who is doing the work may have had some issues with the timing, I'm not sure. I've been asked to go take a look at the...

I recently just has the injection pump (inline simms) and injectors rebuilt. When I installed it the timing marks were lined up and I set it to 27 degrees btdc like the...
I have a bit of a situation. I pulled the injectors and pump in a hurry the other night to get them to the rebuild shop and didnt bring the tractor up to BTDC on the compression stroke before hand. I have since gone back and turned the flywheel to 27 degrees BTDC like the manual calls for but i...

Hey there,
I've been looking at boom mower tractors the last few days as an option for a project I'm bidding on.
One I've located is a '93 ford 6610 with a 20' Alamo boom mower and 60" rotary head.
The unit also has an 8' belly mower and an 8' offset mower. They also appear to be made by...
I have an early 80's model 6610 that over the past few weeks has had a steering problem. After a short time of mowing i noticed the steering gets more difficult to turn. The reservoir also becomes very hot after an hour or less. I added trans/hydraulic fluid this morning to the reservoir...
I just bought a Ford 6610, and I want to put a Woods 6-foot rotary mower (generic bush hog) on the 3-point hitch. To keep it from swaying back and forth, I thought I would need stabilizer bars.
The tractor has a ROPS roll bar/canopy. The brackets that hold the roll bar to the axle have pins that...
