Hopefully some one who knows this tractor will chime in but that sounds as if filters failed due to heat or such or line collasped or something happened to a pump or a valve. Sorry I have no other idea for you.

Purple, will also welcome you here. Question on your gator, there looks to be a step or such on it. Is that right?> If so any idea if built that way or added on?

Believe it is the same set up as on Kubota and you are opening or regulating the hyd oil flow on the lift with this knob. It is sort of like closing a water spigot or faucet. The more open it is the faster the oil flows to let the lift lower, full closed and it will not lower. If the knob is turned all the way one way and the lift will not lower, try turning it some the other way and see if that is not the problem.

That is great.

My thoughts, you had water in fuel the whole time. It really only takes a little water. If your tractor doesn't have a clear fuel filter you can drain you probably should change out the filter just to be sure.

On the coolant, I would run a flush through your system and then refill with clean water and coolant mix.

Have fun with the tractor and here.

You may find Bushhog to be less due to how close you are to them. But ask who owns Bushhog now. They were having some issues. But wow there are just too many of their mowers out there parts to be not be made by someone.

If you look at Woods or some other aftermarket FEL web site they often have good references as to what fits what. I assume that 770b is a pound rating or is that a model? If so go to the web site of who brand of loader is it. If not there send them email and they probably will answer.

Sure don't have a tilt meter but you should be fine. We cut my MIL yard with ZTR mower, 27 HP CUT both seem to handle a slope that has to be near 30 degrees. I have used the CUT with a 5 foot rough cut mower to back down a slope I am sure is 30 degree to cut the mouth of our pond with no issue, just moving slow and steady and with mower wheel on the ground. It may be safe but only back down and drive up, no driving across the slope. Funny at the top the slope away from the water feels ok, near the water no way. :)

Ken, ole EW is not even a good thorn in the flesh. (wait, did have something in one sock Saturday had to remove! :) Even not doing it for a living am working as hard as he does...

Jeff ole boy...come on down for Thanksgiving, will sit a place for you. No don't want you as the turkey either. The reason I took the pictures was to control what was in them and what was not in them, like me! If you looked at the pond, do you think I am fishing?? Oh, if all is done by Thanksgiving I will be most thankful. Since you are so good at math; need about 4 more feet of fill in area about 75 by 150 and then a few more pockets around the trees to do. Then widen the dam by about 6 or so feet so you can drive safely around it for maintance and fishing. In doing so have to dig out the sides on the pond that are just above full water level now to give some deep areas (10 to 15 feet) for cooler summer water as we will be then raising the spill way about a foot. So if done before 2010 will be very pleased.

Could not decide the brand this cutter is or I would have looked for you but have you tried their web site to see if they have it posted there?

Prices do vary from region to region some but what I found the best for me was to talk with 2 or 3 dealers, each one being close enough to be and my being comfortabe with them to be my dealership. Saving a $1,000 and no support is not a good deal. If you will be using it to make a living that is even more important.

[QUOTE=bigangelman;164372] I was concerned when I bought my cub which had industrial tires on it, There is only a little scuffing on some of the hills I mow when I turn shape. I think they give a little more traction over turf. If your ground is real soft I might want the turf tires but otherwise the industrial will do fine. Tom [/QUOTE]

The scuffing is it from the rear or front tires? If front slow down a little for the turn and it probably will solved that.

EW, some places will not let you leave without that bag for those chips either. I had a cashier one day tell me without bag they think it is stolen. OK, let the read my receipt.

Auerbach, there are days I believe I had the day pass, there there are those I am sure. LOL
