thanks for the reply...I bought the tractor used and the front loader had a coating of concrete inside..the tractor just does not move when engaged in gear. Everything else works well...the pto...front loader...engine...my guess is that the tractor was abused therefore the cheap price....You get what you pay for....With a little tender care she will be up and chugging away in a few days...I'm retired and do not mind tinkering....

You are correct...I went to another tiller site and found good instructions for cutting the drive shaft..I made a cardboard template of the drive shaft length prior to cutting. I am considering adding a I-Match quick hitch to the tractor..At that time it will add about three inches to the drive shaft length. Keep in mind that you do not want to extend the implement to far behind the tractor...it will take weight off the front wheels...requiring adding weights to the front to keep the tractor balanced..I am pleased with the tiller and it does a fine job..

Can the sight glass be replaced from outside of the transmission, or only from inside the transmission housing...

I pressure washed the tractor. The leak is at the bottom of the sight glass on the right side of transmission. Thanks for your input.

Have owned an Echo CS-452VL chain saw with a 16" bar for over 19 years...The only problem I have had is the carburetor....It tends to clogg-up..making starting a pain in the butt. Some day I should clean it....I would buy a new chain saw but I can't kill the one I have...Stihl is a fine brand...

Thanks for all the replys...Finally was able to grease the right knuckle. Worked Blaster, WD40 in the knuckle. Let it set two days then finally greased the fitting...Still working on the left knuckle..Will more than likely replace the ball joint because the boot is torn...

Is there any spray that might be shot in the grease fitting hole to loosen up rust or any crud in the top of the knuckle. My thoughts are that the knuckle has never been greased, and water or condensation got inside...

I'm new to tractors and my pucker factor was at an all time high with the front loader....Two wheels off the ground was a real education.....soft spot in the yard.....I walk before I drive now....
