I just purchased an L245 that has problems with the PTO not spinning when pressure on it and the 3pt won't go down. I have taken all the items off needed to pull apart the rear transmission. I pulled the filter screen and found it full of garbage (paint chips, metal fragments) must be years of accumulation. Now I want to separate the tractor but the IT shop manual doesn't give much clue for a newbie? Every thing blocked up, nuts out, How is the best way to get the halves to separate?<br>
<br>
What is the best way to flush the internals? <br>
<br>
The problem with the PTO seem to be the over running clutch since we can turn the pto backwards. I plant to remove and inspect. Thanks for your comments

Greg,
I was in Sikeston 2 months ago...............and I was going to buy something from them , but I did not have a tractor at that time, and I was not sure what I was going to do, so I did not buy anything.
I might go down to AR in September. I did not know , that they will do a " custom" frame. I'd like to paint it and finish it myself. My own wiring, my own stop lights, etc.
Thanks,

Joe

If you have oil in the radiator then you do need to pull it to have it cleaned as well as change your oil cooler on the side of the engine as that is the cause of your problems.

imnezrider,

It's highly unlikely that your problems are caused by air in the system. Very few hydraulic systems are totally sealed. You probably have a fluid reservoir in your system, which would eliminate any air in the system.

More likely, you are either low on fluid, or the fluid filter is all but completely plugged. You could also have water in the hyd. fluid.

I would start by completely draining the hydraulic fluid and replacing the filter, and then add a new batch of the prescribed hydraulic fluid to the system.

Since this piece of equipment is new to you, this is the best place to start. More than likely, the fluid and filter needs to be changed anyway.

Good luck.

Joel

Yeah, now my HP LaserJet 1012 does not work on Vista. HP Web site says it is supposed to be supported. But it is not in the Vista list when I go to add the printer. The printer is on another computer and shared and the Vista computer sees it - but when I click on it it sends an error message. I read on the internet that other people with the HP 1012 have this problem also and that HP says Microsoft has to fix the problem.

Woodie,

You could probaby rent a box blade for not much for a day.

I also have a landscape rake and it might work if the soil was sandy. If it is hardpack at all it will not cut into the soil enough to move much dirt. My landscape rake will move some soil if it is already loosened by my box blade but you just don't have enough control over where you want to place the dirt. If it works at all, it would take some time and you would likely never be happy with a smooth, even finish that a box blade will give you.

Good Luck,
Brian

A friend of mine told me it is safe to remove and mount my rear wheels rim inside out and adding custom spacers to increase the distance between the rear tires.. He says make the tractor more stable on slopes. By doing this will it help or make the tractor more unstable when turning? I need to complete the landscape around my home. My backyard is sloped at about 5 degrees. To be on the safe side I have been driving down the slope then backing up it. But The time has come to go cross slope in some areas. I cant find any information on what angle this tractor can be safely operated. Can anyone help<br>

I don't know what happened to this but here are the messages I have:<br>
<br>
*****************************************************<br>
Hi Greg,<br>
<br>
In general images in browsers are cached so they are local to your machine after the first visit so they load instantly on each page. So it really is not a choice of which thing to load first, and I am not intentionally loading ads first, they just load as they are coded in the page.<br>
<br>
The forum content is a call from your browser to the server where your request is processed and then sent back to you over the internet. Everyones network connection can be different not only in the purchased speed but also in the path taken to get to the host server.<br>
<br>
>From my connections that I use TP on the response time seems pretty good, even not that bad on my Blackjack smartphone.<br>
<br>
Nonetheless there are always things that can be done to attempt to make the piece that I control on the server faster. If there is a specific page that is slower than the others I can look at it.<br>
<br>
Dennis<br>
<br>
***************************************************<br>
I respectfully disagree Dennis. Since I'm on a T1 equivalent, I set my browser to load new pages every time. And every time the advertising loads first. I then wait for up to 30 seconds for your server to actually deliver the forum content. I really do believe it's a matter of prioritization at the webserver.<br>
<br>
We went through this one time before, when you first introduced the Google-supplied advertising. At that time, they were taking up more space than did the forum body itself. You were successful in tuning that up, I think the page loading file prioritization may be somewhere down that same street<br>
<br>
//greg//<br>
<br>
*******************************************************<br>
greg - I can't believe you're having issues on a T1 line (but obviously you are...)<br>
<br>
While pages can be re-arranged, and you can 'flush' responses to the web browser, I don't believe there's a guaranteed method to send prioritized content from the server to an individual's browser. (Standard html does have tags like 'load me first').<br>
<br>
Most web browsers like to see completed tables (more like complete page layouts) prior to populating your screen with data and images. Once a page or table layout is completed, images tend to be the last items populated, with text being the first.<br>
<br>
Maybe Dennis can shed some insight into the download size in the typical advertisments - and I would guess your T1 should handle them in mere seconds. Hence, I'm wondering if you're having issue with any other web pages - possibly an issue with your PC?<br>
<br>
Flash advertisemtn tend to do funny things is some web browsers. There was a time when I couldn't close a web page until the flash advert. completed...<br>
<br>
- Jason<br>
************************************************<br>
<br>
The ads are probably links to other, faster servers so they are served up faster than the content can be delivered by the TP servers.<br>
<br>
Ken<br>
**********************************************************<br>
<br>
You got it backwards Jason. I get all the adverts almost instantaneously. It's the forum body and text that takes so much longer to load. I know ad-free forums are few and far between. So I'm not asking for the adds to disappear. I'd just prefer to see the actual forum load, the adds can follow at their leisure.<br>
<br>
This activity is not browser-dependent either. Same annoying page load sequence whether I use MSIE6 or FF2<br>
<br>
//greg//<br>
<br>
***************************************************<br>
<br>
Well, mine's satellite too; 256 up/1500 down. T1 is 1544, hence my use of the word "equivalent". Since my first post though, the time lag between advertising graphics loading and TractorPoint forum/text loading is now less noticeable. Maybe Dennis is doing some tweaking.<br>
<br>
//greg//<br>
<br>
***************************************************<br>
<br>
Over the last few days TP has failed to open for me a few times. Have no idea if TP was at fault at all for one or two of those times turned out to be IP problem but it seems TP would fail to open when another site would open. <br>
This morning it was very fast for me. kt<br>
<br>
***************************************************<br>
<br>
I am on dailup and I have noticed a tremendously longer load up time in the past few months. Not sure if it is my ISP or something else.<br>
<br>
//Chief// <br>
<br>
***************************************************<br>
<br>
I agree that it has gotten slower in the past 6-12 months. Advertising naturally comes in first. Several times a week it fails to load for me. I noticed a long time ago that it first seems to load as tractopoint before going to tractorpoint.com.<br>
<br>
***************************************************<br>
<br>
Ken is right, if you put the cursor over an ad and right click, then select properties, you will see the ads come from a whole different (and presumably much faster) server than does TP itself.<br>
<br>
But for the record, I have the same thing here, ads come up, then a second later the rest of the forum.<br>
<br>
As of this minute, I am running at 2 mbps download speed, which is pretty typical here.<br>
<br>
Best of luck.<br>
<br>

***********************************************************<br>
<br>
For what it's worth my page load speed runs between 5 and 8 seconds here. I have DSL but it's only 300K download?<br>
