Recently purchased a 1988 Deutz Allis 7085 and looking for info on parts, Repair manuals, or general knowledge related to this tractor.

Thanks in advance!

Had one of them, great tractor and easy to work on.

If you live in a cold climate I suggest you get thinner oil for winter, a trickle charger and battery warmer plugged into one plug so that it's easy to start. No problems starting in temperatures as low as -15Celsius. Mine didn't even have a grid heater. The heating is close to nil due to it being air cooled.

The owners manual is only available in the aftermarket and I found it to be somewhat useless.

The AC compressor is off a semi so if ever you need to fix that, you could salvage parts there.

Mine was a 4x4 with locking diff, cab, ac. Got it with around 9k hours and Sold it with 10k hours on it (upgraded to a newer tractor).

Not sure if it's true or not, but I heard that you should run with the pto running when ever possible (if nothing is hooked up to it for instance) as it saves the clutch or circulates oil better.

Are you sure they didn't mean, to have the clutch engagement lever in the "forward" position??

Some guys like to run with it in the back position, that's not so good for the pto clutch and throw out bearing.

My pto lever was like a car handbrake, on the floor meant the pto was turning.

Which is apparently the proper way to have it...
