I believe I heard elsewhere that some of the batteries were overfilled. When my battery needs replacing I will probably purchase a sealed Gel Cell type. In the meantime I only have enough fluid in the battery to cover the plates. I also placed a peace of rubber mat under the battery to absorb some of the shock and sprayed terminal protector, which can be purchased at your local auto parts store, on the posts and surrounding area.

In Oklahoma City I bought a TC33D with 7308 FEL, heavy duty bucket and bolt on blade, Rhino 60" Brush Hog and Tuffline 60" box blade for $18,000.00 with 12 months 0% financing. E-mail me direct if you would like the saleman's name and number.

I changed the filters and engine oil yesterday. I added approx. 1 quart of hydraulic fluid to replace that lost in the filters. Here's my question: Where is the HST fluid reservoir?, or does it share the main reservoir. If it does then why a separate filter?

On my New Holland TC33D it's a NO NO to turn the front wheels the other way because of the stress on the front differential when in four wheel drive. I wouldn't think it would be any different on another model.

Sometimes rings will stick and allow crankcase oil to burn causing blue smoke. If it were my tractor I would add a quart of Marvel Mystery oil to the crank case and run the engine for about ten hours then drain and refill with fresh oil. If that didn't solve the problem then you may need to consider a teardown.

I agree with you, in fact, I use synthetics on all my cars. However, Teledyne Continental does not recommend full synthetics in aircraft engines that are going to sit for a while ( a month or two perhaps). It could be that automotive synthetics have better wetting properties than aircraft engine oils. I still believe I'll use a semi-synthetic and get the best of both worlds.

I recently researched the internet thoroughly and found a couple of dealers with good pricing. The other factor in their favor was the exclusion of state sales tax since the equipment would be going out of state. However, my local dealer in Oklahoma City cut me a great deal. A New Holland TC33D, front end loader, Rhino 60" brush hog and 60" box blade for $18,000.00 plus tax with $3,000 down and the balance in 12 months with 0% interest. If you would like additional details, e-mail me direct.
