i wouldn't call them over rated.in their day they got a lot of work done.if it's a 9n it's at least 54 years old.the 9 was built from 1939 till 1947.it has no live hydraulic which means you have to run the pto to make the 3 point lift work.if you push the clutch in the lift stops.the 9n also has a 3 speed tranny where as the 8n had a 4 speed. on the 9 the left hand brake is on the left side behind the clutch.another way to tell for sure it's a 9n is to count the lug bolts on the rear wheels.the 9 has 6 in a wide pattern were as the 8n has 8 in a tight pattern.good luck with what ever you do.

your not the only one.i've been using one for the last thirty years.it's called a danusar.this was the first box blade my dad ever bought.i don't know how old it is ,but it's been around for as long as i can remember and i'll be 45 this year.ti's a standard 360 degree blade or you can put the side plates on and make it a box blade.it also has retractable scarifiers.they were built until the early 80's,but the cheaper box blades became so popular that people wouldn't spend the money to buy them.i did buy a couple of extra muhl boards a few years back to use as replacments to keep it usable for as long as i can.good luck

i used blocks for a long time.i finally went out and bought a pair of cheap jack stands.i welded a flat plate on the bottom of them so they wouldn't sink into the ground.a friend bought two bull dog jacks and mounted on each side and they work well too.one nice thing about the jack setup is you can adjust them on an uneven surface to keep the trailer solid so the tow vehicle doesn't have any stress on it at all.good luck.

here's a experience i had.first consider how much wider the mower is than the tractor.i bought a 1550 kubota with a 60 inch deck and more times then i care to remember it would get caught on the least little hump and the tractor would go high center and i would be stuck.i learned a lesson about mid mount decks that are alot wider then the tractor.when i traded it for the 1530 i've got now they offered a 72 inch deck for it,but i went with the 60 instead and have been very satisfied.if i need a bigger mower,i have a 72 inch 914b finish mower for the 3 point.i realize that tractor can handle that big of deck,but consider how much easier the one that that sets closer to the sides of the tractor will be to maneuver.good luck

my 1530 does the samething.mine's not the cable,but the friction disk in the throttle lever.it happened 3 years ago when it was brand new.i loosened the nut on the lever and it didn't help.that area of the tractor has no was for air to pass through it to help dry it out.it happened today to me when i tried to start it to put the blade on.(it was 6 degrees here in the st.louis area today and the weather man says 5 to 7 inchs of snow by tomorrow night.)anyway the way i can tell is when it warms up it gets a little foggy in the dash.to help with the problem i set the throttle at about 1000 rpm when i shut it off.when i start it backup its got enough to start but not enough to run to fast to hurt the hydro or hydraulic.hope this helps.good luck.

many years ago my dad adapted a meyers plow onto a massey loader.the bottom mount is a 4x4 1/2 inch angle.cut the angle to the length you want,put it up to the loader and mark where you want to weld the mounts,drill the pin holes,and then weld in place.do the same to the top but be sure to off set it forward about 4 inchs.i don't have a scaner our i would send a pic.i also put a 3 point mount in between the loader mount so i can use it on the back too.this plow has been used over 30 years without a problem.good luck.

i've had my 1530 for 3 years now and have had not one problem with the super steer.even with the loader on it theres never been any trouble.my bussiness celebrated 53 years of service this year and this is one of the best tractors that we've ever had.last week at the ozark farm fest in springfield mo. i looked at the 45.my dealer here in illinois has one coming in shortly and i already told him to put my name on it.ask your dealer what the big deal is he has with it.i think we all would like to know.good luck.

go to woodsonline and check out their lawn retovater.i've used brillions for many years to do the job you want to do,but always worked the surface with a gill or harrow first.you need loose dirt to stick the seed too.i bought a ryan mataway about 15 years ago for small jobs and liked the way it worked enough to spend the money on a gandy slit seeder for the 3 point.it did cost a little over 5k at the dealer but a l leonard has it for a little less.good luck

i tried out a york rake a couple years ago.i wasn't to impressed with it(doesn't hold a candle to a pulvillizer),but it did a good job cleaning up my walnuts.i set the top link to where the teeth didn't tear the grass to bad and went to town.i just left them in piles and picked them up with the front loader.good luck

i've always tried to stay with the manufacturers filters.there are good after market brands to also choose from like wix and baldwin.as far as oil goes i run shell rotella 15w40 in all my diesels.the local nh and jd dealers sell fleet gaurd filters but the price difference is nil to none.good luck

my gun ain't loaded so nobody shoot me.i've got a 1530 with super steer and a 7308 loader.buying one without super steer would be like buying a car without a/c.the first thing i did was jack up the front end in the shop at the dealer and check the clearance.it looked good and have yet to have a problem.as far as the merger,case/ih is only involved in the skid steer line and fiat has been there for about 10 years.that's what my dealer told me.good luck

find a dealer that handles gannon equipment.i had that setup put on a 335 in 1978.gannon has dedicated setups for several different tractors.a friend bought one for a kubota 4200 series a couples years ago.the cylindres were even painted kubota green from the factory.they put the controls in the slots on the tractor and it really looks good.i've had experience with other brands,but in my opinion gannon is the best.i have yet to put one on my boomer but i probably will.if you do this go the whole nine yards and get the tilt cylinder too.mijne has the three spole valve for the link,tilt,and also the scarifiers.good luck.

the biggest mistake made is not being in the center of the tool to be hooked up.if you line up the top link with the center of the tool,there should be no problem.i have had trouble when the tractor is new,but after a little wear it gets easier.you can also put something under your implements such as 2x4's to make them slide if you have to move them with a pry bar to line them up.good luck
