My L3000DT with 52 hours on it has returned to the dealer once again for a problem with it's 3PH./w3tcompact/icons/sad.gif
Shortly after the 10 hour mark the 3PH started going up and down all by itself for a little less than 1 minute. Then at 46 hours the 3PH failed to lift one day but worked okay the next day. This happened to be the day the dealer arrived to take it to the shop for this problem. /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif
So I had them do the 50 hour service along with a FEL lift cylinder seal replacement they did as a warrantee item. I haven't used the FEL for much more than moving fire wood from the pile to the porch.
I used the 3PH twice after the tractor came back from the 50 hour service. Most of the time I used the tractor to pull a trailer when gathering maple sap. Last Thursday I lower the 3PH and when I went to raise it up nothing happened. This weekend it was still dead.
There is a big empty spot in the barn tonight. /w3tcompact/icons/sad.gif
Hope they get it fixed soon, the dealer said they may have keep it a week to 10 days.
