Is there is a mid mount mower in the equation?

Some aftermarket loaders don't mix well with MMM's.

Don't you have an axle sticking out? Look for the bolts that go in and loosen, he-he! they might be a little rusty.

I did a search for basic hydraulics stuff some years ago. The JD FOS Manual (Fundamentals of Service) was the best I came up with. FOS is a series that are intended as basic service orientation material for beginning techs. I have the hydraulics and engine manuals. They are available from JD dealers. I do have some other material and may start looking for some community college texts if my minor hobby obsession with hydraulics continues. The FOS manual isn't going to tell you in detail how to take a valve assembly apart or how a draft-control hitch or a HST works, but it isn't bad either.

You might see if the CAD plans company has a plan for a splitter. At least with a plan there's some engineering done so you don't have to guess about geometry, loadings etc. When I guess I end up with something way over-designed.

IT manuals are the after-market manuals I hear about most often. I took a look in the link below and it doesn't look like BX's are covered in the IT series. Maybe the lawn and garden series has something.

For myself, I'd go with the factory manuals. They may be pricey but it's a one-time purchase. You don't have to read these boards very long before reading about somebody who couldn't complete a job because an after-market manual didn't have enough detail (most of them cover more than one tractor). Many of them don't have wiring diagrams either. Factory parts manuals are great since they give the assembly order of every last nut, washer, gasket, shim etc. on a tractor. Parts diagrams in repair manuals aren't near that detailed. A pars manual would seem cheap the first time the assembly order on a shaft is forgotten or there's some hardware left over.

There's lots of reading on the subject in the archives. However, there are no easy answers. A basic idea to have in mind is that no equipment that does reasonable work at realistic prices can be used with a risk of breaking something. Most sub-frame mounts have a bit less risk of breaking things than most 3ph mounts. But then, the extra strength of a sub-frame mount may be irrelevant to light occasional work or a small hoe on a big tractor.

No easy answers I guess. I can say that I've used a 3ph hoe on my Ford 1710 for 5 years and it has done the job without problems. That can't be a recommendation through because your tractor, soil and jobs are likely different than mine. There also was no warranty issue for my Ford. You might go through the archives and talk to a dealer if you already haven't done so. That might clear up the issues and if not then post away. Welcome to the Board.

I bought a TC45 over the JD. Most of the tractors that we had on the farm when I was growing up were JD tractors, so I like that brand very much. I do not regret my NH purchase one bit. I felt that I got more tractor for the money with NH, but a bigger factor was that I did not get along with the JD dealer and I have had nothing but good experiences with the NH dealer. I live in the west in NM. There is only one JD dealer and one NH dealer within 100 miles of where I live, so the dealer/customer relationship is very important.

To be hones; I don't remember and probably did not take notice of it when I had the tractor. Ronnie Bowman was a wealth of information on these tractors and helped me out immensely. I would sugget running these question by him. They have great prices too.

BARNEE, from what you are describing; that sure does sound like a bad or no stat installed. They are cheap and easy to replace. Try changing the thermostat out with a new one. The worst that can happen is that you will end up with a spare.

I once had a customer with a jd850 and # 8 hoe that he used for digging graves. He always used a 36" bucket that I always thought could never work well. I had to do a service call to the cemetary one day to replace a blown hose and when I finished, I watched him dig. It was amazing what he could do with that big bucket. I have had more trouble using a 12" bucket at times. The skill of the operator makes a big difference in how much work can be gotten out of any machine. He was even digging in frozen soil. I'm sure if I tried to use the same machine, I'd have trouble scratching the surface.

Jim: I guess with the amount of salt dumped on the highways for ice it'd be hard to make a case that it's an environmental problem, but could be some places. Well, our place and some neighbours did have government paid for drilled wells put in because the highway salt contaminated the surface water, but that's a lot more salt than a couple of tractor tires.<br>
<br>
I was mostly thinking that it can't just be dumped on the ground if anything is expected to grow there. I don't know what municipal treatment officials would say but I'd don't think I'd want to put much of it into our septic or gray water systems so I'd probably be stuck with it.<br>

Made a 'duh' comment in an earlier version. Talked about CACL for dust control. Nope, wrong CA. Wonder what I was thinking about?

Repair manuals usually have a trouble-shooting chart that gives problems associated with gray, white, black or blue exhaust smoke. Your owner's manual may have such a chart.

Smoke is a good indicator of how a diesel is working and it's good to learn the trouble signs. In this case, Chief's comment sounds right. A puff of gray as power or rpm is added is pretty normal for most engines. Blue smoke is oil and is a sign of problems in a broken-in engine. The blue likely will change to gray after some more hours on the engine. I don't know how many hours these JD engines should have on them before they're considered broken in but 200 is getting there.

Anyone know where I could get a manual for Wayne chipper?<br>
Model #16T318, Serial #300-2017 , I just purchased one and want to know what the tolerance is for setting the knives. It's an old one but works great. It's not on a trailer anymore it has been put on the back of a Korean war era M37 Dodge 3/4 ton 4x4, it's a neat little unit.<br>

Rock salt thrown in the fire box will also loosen creosote in stove pipe or flue. Don't recomend useing this method in fire place as it pops an flies around quite a bit. This seems to work as perodic maintance. I still climb up on the roof with the old log chain at least once a year. Makes me sleep better Good luck . Getrdun

If you have a lot of landscaping to do, you will really enjoy having the BX23's BH. As far as future uses, the machine is so maneuverable and compact that I think you will find it handy for lots of jobs. It's easier (and more fun) to start the tractor than it is to go get the shovel, even for small tasks!

The original owners manual that I read online when shopping listed a 30hp engine and 25hp at the PTO with the 3TNE84.(some ads had 27 PTO hp listed? who knows?) When I got my tractor it went to 27hp engine and 24 hp at the PTO with the 3TNE82.<br>
<br>
All I can say about the 5hp per foot implement guidlines that are often quoted is that the tractor runs a 5 foot brushhog with ease through anything. I am sure I could use a light duty 6ft cutter for 90% of the stuff I cut. I don't think anyone who owns an older 790 has implements that they can run that a newer 790 can't handle. As MANY have stated, the 790's limitations are lift capacity and traction due to it's light weight not power. Most implements that require more PTO power to run will either be too heavy for the 790s lift capacity or cause wheelies if do you manage to lift them :) If your needs are running implements that need ALL 25/27? PTO hp to the extent that the curent 24 hp won't cut it , then I don't think a 2100 lb 790 is a good choice. That was true before OR after the power reduction.<br>
<br>
The tractor works great and will suit the average hobby farmer,horse owner,landowner, etc. fine. It has very good power for it's size and will probably do all the tasks they ask of it. With 6 horses and property to care for I have used it pretty darn hard for 100 hours and it has not disappointed. Bottom line, JD screwed up, but it is still a great tractor especailly for under 15K with a FEL and an attachment or two.<br>
