Thanks for the pointers. I might just rent and mini excavator for the work I need to do around the farm. I was just wondering, how much luck people had with the little 3pt hitch hoes. Any body else with any ideas?

Can I go to a local farm supply store, such as Tractor Supply or Southern States, to buy hydraulic fluid for my TC29D without having to drive an hour to the NH dealer.<br>
I called them and they told me I needed '134' hydraulic fluid, but this is the NH ref. number and other farm supply stores seem to not be sure what that translates to with their stock of hyd.fluids.<br>
<br>
All very confusing, at least to someone like me who knows little about tractor maintenance.<br>
<br>
Also, the dealer was surprised to hear there was no fluid in the engine, saying this must mean there is a leak somewhere as the fluid should never run out, just need changing.<br>
Is this correct?

The problem is you will need to not just disconnect them, but physically move them apart.

While you can do it by just spreading them a few inches it's a PITA to do it that way. It is FAR easier if you can move them far enough apart to physically get yourself between the two halves to do the work.

Most jigs I've seen for doing it are made by making a short track (like a train track) and one rolling stand to move the rear end back away from the front end that stays stationary.

The problem is not just one of getting the old parts out and the new parts in. The clutch has a lot of friction material on it and there is usually a lot of debris to be cleaned out of there also.

Best of luck.

[QUOTE=auerbach;155663] Thanks, guys. Better overgrease than under.Thompson, I use an air gun too because otherwise I generally need three hands due to the flex hose on it. You can be pretty sure it's working on spindles where you can't see any outsquirt -- if you DO see the outsquirt on other fittings. (And if outsquirt isn't a word, it should be.) [/QUOTE]

You may be 100% correct on some air powered grease guns but not Craftsman brand. They will sound as if pumping grease and no "outsquirt" when empty. They will also make the same sound if unable to push grease into the fitting. No idea who makes this grease gun for Sears but have had two and they both did the same. Possible other brands or models does not give a false impression. I very much suggest if a person uses a power grease gun they are sure if does not give false pumping impression as mine does on such as spindles. Just try it empty and see if you can tell it is not pumping. One other reason I don't like air gun on such is control. On hand grease gun it is easy to know how much grease is being pumped into a blind fitting such as at least my Bush Hog brand spindles.

As to the three hands, understand, need to replace the end on my hand grease gun with flex hose for that very reason.

Hardwood, great point. kt

Park Brake Adjustment

Note: The park brake should be adjusted when the hand lever reaches the top of its travel (12 clicks) and will not hold the vehicle in place.

1. Park machine safely. See "Park Machine Safely" in the Safety section.

2. Raise or remove cargo box.

3. Block front wheels to prevent machine from rolling and safely raise rear wheels off surface. Remove wheels.

4. If cables were replaced, cycle the park brake handle from fully locked to fully unlocked several times to stretch and seat cables.

5. Pull the park brake lever all the way up and measure the length of the rubber bellows (A) on the end of each brake cable. If the measurement exceeds 63 mm (2.5 in.) proceed to step 15.

6. If the measurement is less than 63 mm (2.5 in.) check if brake pads are worn out. If friction material (B) on any brake pad is less than 1 mm (0.040 in) thick, replace brake pads. See "Brake Pad Replacement" on page 541 and then check park brake adjustment.

7. Place the park brake lever in the off position.
8. Loosen jam nut (C). Back off jam nut and adjusting nut (D) 30 mm (1.25 in.).
9. Pull forward on brake lever (E) to ensure the park brake is fully released.
10. Remove the actuator nut (F) and actuator lever (G) from the actuator screw.
11. On the left side caliper, turn the actuator screw (G) counter clockwise until it is hand tight.
12. Rotate the actuator lever as close to the leverstop (H) as possible and engage it back on the actuator screw splines.
13. Install actuator nut and tighten to specification.
14. Repeat steps 9-13 on right side of machine. On the right side caliper, turn the actuator screw clockwise until it is hand tight.
15. Adjust nut (D) until cables are tight; about 5 Nm (4 lb ft).
16. Check the park brake lever movement. It should move 2-4 clicks with a medium pull (about 50 lbs) force on the handle. Move the adjuster nut accordingly.
17. Hold adjuster nut and tighten jam nut (C) to

No sticks, she is clean as a whistle underneath. I lifted the front axle off the ground and spun the tires and didn't hear the noise. I going to lift the back wheels off the ground and place jack stands under the axle, spin the reat tries to see if I can narrow it down. My TN55 2WD dosn't have this noise so I'm not going crazy.
I live near Kalamazoo, MI.

JT; I know very little about MF compacts, but likely they buy their hydro units from the same source as many other brands. Someone here likely will know what they use and can tell you something about them. The only advice I will add is to be sure there are MF dealers within a reasonable distance should you buy the tractor. Frank.

Take it to a hydraulic shop. Rod bent or scored. If not wrong type seal, seal damaged during install. Hyd shop will know. If cylinder bad that can match it to new with black paint for half.

I have a TC33D and it's a perfect size for any jobs I do with it. It's so easy to drive my 3 y.o. niece can drive it. In 2002 I paid $13,500 for it with NO attachments or loader. I'm told the tractor alone sells for over $20,000 now. Keep in mind that the "D" or "DA" in TC line stands for "DELUXE", which means you get the "creature comforts" such as SuperSteer and 4x4, suspended/swivelling seat, cruise control, tilting/telescoping steering wheel and a mid-mount PTO.

It's funny (or sad really) how there is no connection to the size of a machine to the price---I mean for $14,000 you can buy a mid-'90's FULLSIZE backhoe loader.

Thanks greg,

I will check all the things you listed. The way my luck runs everything will need replaced. I have always made it practice to check clearances.

Dear niteman,

I bought a Kubota BX2200 for my husband for his birthday.
The farmer I bought it from couldn't find the manual. I would be very grateful for a scanned copy of the manual.
How do I send you my email address? Many Thanks!

thanks for the reply. I still think it is going to be a deal breaker for me. I mow a lot of up and down hills which cannot be mowed laterally w/o danger of rolling the machine. I hate to have to pay the extra $2K+ more for the Deere, but at least they have a very smooth transition (dampening) from reverse to neutral. I called the dealer and asked if there was a retro fit that could be made. He has yet to get back to me.
Even the new Yanmar diesel/Cub Cadet 24hp subcompact mower is very smooth. The latter machine is waaaay too expensive for inferior quality.

I've never had any luck mulching. Seems like I'm always trying to cut too much at a time. Could this be your problem? How about a slower ground speed?

I like Yoper's idea. Yes get rid of the tire fluid, I know iron is pricey, but a leaky tire with fluid you you just don't want. There are tons of nice used mowers on the lots. This time of year I think a dealer would be a bit negocable rather than carry them till spring.
Wow, a 200ft. cliff, that is a LONG ways down. Don't think I'd be mowing in the dark. Frank.

Sounds to me that a transmission bearing is wiped out. Have you checked the fluid level? If it's very low it's probably too late.
