New member , new tractor , naturally a problem

I can't say for sure but that tractor has similar specs to my 33D.

Here is a quick maintenance guide I pulled off Messicks web site. It may give you some direction.

Thanks , I didnt know Messicks had that much info . I have to take a break from the tractor , my ford van blew out a spark plug , and my other service van needs a thermostat . Both went the same day . " If it aint broke , It aint mine "

Both went the same day . " If it aint broke , It aint mine "

Those are the most frustrating days. Good luck getting everything repaired.

Well I figured out the problem as far as the loud hydraulics and slow moving hydraulics . There was water in the hydro fluid , I drained out the fluid and replaced the hydraulic filter, and fluid and it works perfectly . I will run this for a week or 2 and then repeat the whole process .

Good to hear you figured it out. Also sounds like a good idea to run it a little bit and then change it out again. Good luck.

Any time buying used, first thing is change all filters and fluids.... And grease every zerk on the tractor(manual really helps find them all...). My old Kubota had like 10 total, my TC40D has like 40!

Give the battery a service/cleaning too...

I bought the user manual for the tractors I have had; worth the money...
