Sure, the loose fan belt will cause the alternator to not charge. And if I read it right, the alt is not properly attached which will cause a vibration and cause further looseness. Rapid wear to the belt will also occur. Also if that belt runs any other accessories like a fan, it too will lose effectiveness. And in the case of a fan, cause overheating, a blown head gasket and/or warped head or cracked block.

Having worked on the gulf coast of Miss and Louisiana with their muckland (I live in Michigan) for awhile, I know the importance of having tracks, preferably rubber, on a machine. The best thing for digging a ditch under muky conditions is a light weight excavator probaly in the 7,500 to 10,000 lb. class. 10,000 lb. might be getting too heavy but it will the outreach. You can buy rubber track kits for the popular tractors. The end result will look like a Caterpillar Challenger. The kits are expensive but offer excellent tractability.

You've identified the correct plugs for adding lubricant. It takes 5.5 pints of 80w90 gear oil, The level plugs are on the wheel housings. I sell a operators manual which has detailed maintenance information. Bill - satohparts.com 1-800-609-5110

Yofrient,

I'm happy to hear that the problem has been corrected. Thanks for stopping in to let us know what happened.

If I may suggest something in the tool department......

Your first tool should be similar to Cummins Tool Part Number 1158. 24 inch air wand with rubber tip and hand trigger. Price = $5.00

Cummins Tools aren't the best in the world.....to say the least. There are other companies who make better stuff, but I've used my Cummins Air Wand over and over again on my tractor's radiator. I will never be without one.

If you need an air compressor to go with it......you might need to spend a few more bucks. hehehe.

Glad we were able to help.

I did a search of all the posts and found nothing so here goes: Who's replaced the Chinese guages on their Agracat/Jinma, what did you use and what suggestions do you have. I saw some really cool looking guages at the Auto Parts store and though it would be nice to make a change. The chinese guages seem to work fine but I'd like to make a change, not really for practical reasons but more for a little weekend project.

I have a NH with a hydraulic toplink connected to a rear remote. I installed the remote kit myself and noticed that the check ball system is not that robust in that the machined surfaces aren't that well machined.

Thinking about your situation, I rethought my similar issue of leak down on my toplink. And this is what I came up with: Simply, the remotes are really intended to control a hydraulic cylinder that doesn't necessarily have weight or force on it, like a rake, blade, snow blower chute, etc. The only option I see for you is to lower the implement to the ground when not in use---thus eliminating any leakdown issue.

Dear friends,

The ebay seller mentioned above has attempted to sell the same tractor in six different ebay auctions. He has also listed a B7500 tractor for $2700.00, for a total of 7 different auctions.

All seven auctions have been terminated. The seller no longer has any auctions listed on ebay.

Thank you for the scoop on the oil filter, I will try out that number. Are you using synthetic oil in your tractor? And and the same for the gear oil?

Thank you for what ever information you can give me as I am still new to this machine, liking it but new. :^)

I just wanted to let everyone know that i got my BX1850 this weekend and i love it. My wife got on and was able to start mowing within minutes. As short as she is (5-nothing with shoes) she could reach all the controls with no problems. She just doesn't understand the need to all the extra levers. The one and only issue she need was pulling the throttle back.<br>
Did not really get a chance to use it much. Everyone laughed at me when i put on the loader and loaded it with chairs, fishing poles, tackle, and beverages just to go fishing. Then they saw how easy it was and laughed harder.<br>
We did not get it with the new seat, but when the dealer gets it he will bring it down.<br>
Thanks for all your help.<br>

Iam; I think you have answered some of you own questions.
5500. in an old 560 that still needs a TA, paint, leaking lines, repaired all after you get the engine fixed is going to get out of hand dollar wise to the point you could buy a later model tractor that is running. I think I would take what ever it will bring and divvy up with the brothers.
Replacing the TA will cost you 7-900 depending on whether you want them heavy duty or standard version. If you haven't replaced one read the book completely before you start, the planetary gears all have timing marks on them that must be in time, etc. You can get a TA bypass kit that takes you back to the basic five speeds, but the bypass kit is I think around 500. all of this if you supply the labor.
I am not a big fan of three point mount backhoes, most anyone who has one or has had one will agree that they can tear up the three point hitch of a tractor pretty quick if you get a bit aggressive with the hoe. If you are handy with a welder or even if you hire a blacksmith to do the work I'll pass on what a neighbor of mine did. He bought a used Kelly three point hoe, put it on his 656 Farmall, used it once and took it off for good. He used some eight inch channel that he welded to the hoe frame, they extend forward under rhe rear axles of the tractor where he made a coupler of some kind that fastens the ends of the channel to the side rails of the tractor just behind the radiator. He backs the tractor over the frame, connects the front ends of the channels, then connects the three point arms to the channels with some chains, lifts it up to match some brackets on the rear axle housings that have a pin hole to match a clevis on the channel. He puts the pins in releases the three point chains, the hoe is firmly attached to the tractor. Frank.

While I've held off buying an RTV or Gator, we do have the original of that style of machine, the I-R Toolcat, there is a BIG difference between them though.

As has already been stated, an RTV or Gator seems to be not much more than a golf cart on steroids.

However, in my case the Toolcat was bought for, and continues to be for, a single site, and it never leaves there except for service work that can't be done in the field.

If we ever get stopped from using trucks on our sites, and they're talking about it lots now, I will certainly buy an RTV or three, but until then it's just an extra vehicle I don't (yet) need.

Best of luck.

David, there is a short answer to your question about ensuring a fit without spending $750 to do so.

Find someone with a John Deere 4010, 4110 or 4115, a dealer with a trade-in model in inventory maybe, who will let you unbolt their ROPS and see if it fits your machine.

In fact, if it's a JD dealer, you may even be able to talk them into it by letting you go home with the used one and paying them for the new one to go on their machine.

Best of luck.

The loader won't work unless you go full throttle to get it working. once it starts working it works even at idle. any ideas why or possible fix?

Sorry about the multiple replies, but I keep coming up with other ideas. An original JD manual is still availble new from John deere also. A paper manual is number SM2035 and costs around $125. A CD version, SM2035CD is available also for around $65. This option is less expensive and you can print out the pages you want to work with. Call your local dealer for his exact prices. They may vary.

I too am still puzzled as to why you need the stabalizers to mount the hoe. Yes the hooks on the hoe frame that the three point pins lift from must be correctly adjusted, but other than that there just isn't anything else to go wrong. I just mounted mine last evening, it came right up holes almost go past a bit, just back off the three point lever a tic and the pins slide in freely.
EW; You are correct to a point with your misalignment theroy. either one of the rear tires can be a bit low without any effect on alignment, soon as the three point arm pins grab the hooks on the hoe frame it lines it'self up instantly before it gets anywhere near the position to put the pins in the top holes. Front to rear level of the tractor, loader on the ground,in the raised position don't matter. if both front tires wer completely flat would be too much, but again this mounting system is quite forgiving unless you sit the hoe off in an extremely side lean positon which I did once, yes then you have a problem.
