This is all very helpful. Sounds like I might be better off hiring someone with some better equipment. I was hoping the cost I could save would offset the cost of a CUT that I need for a number of other smaller landscaping projects (does anyone see a wife's input on a CUT purchase seeping in here?). Thanks -

Just got a Hiomoto E 154, it has the S100 engine and 4 wheel drive. Was this a Massey or an Allis? If so what model. It was a nice thought for a present, but needa a little work. The seal< I think is leaking from the left front hub and I need to adjust the idle on it. It is trying to idle at 400rpm and the tach shows from 750 and down as being in the red so I figure it should be idling at 800.

I haven't notice any problem on downhills. The only time it even rolls is at low throttle. Otherwise, the engine holds the tractor. I was having problems with a delayed reaction when I let off of the forward pedal. This went away with the hydraulic oil change.

Hi, it was probably yourself that sent me a picture of this machine. Very interesting machine. I hadn't seen a reverse steer before. Most of the chinese tractor manufacturers, don't make their own engines. Is that the only label that can be found on the machine? What is the specific engine model number? Assuming, you were unsuccessful with any Benye tractor dealers, another chinese tractor may contain the same or similar engine. You will have to compare though, because the chinese engine model numbers can be deceiving.

There is no doubt that Hemlock is a good, strong, durable wood.

The problem with using it for an application like floor decking in a horse trailer is it's not strong enough. Unlike the floor of a transport trailer where the loads are spread over a larger area, a horse puts all of their wait on four small areas, their hoofs.

Even a small horse weighs about 1,000 pounds, and it stands on 4 relatively small hoofs, the span between frame rails is fairly wide and both the 2 front and 2 rear hoofs end up on the same span. This is doubled when you load 2 horses. A pair of good sized horses can exert 1,500 pounds on two smallish areas of flooring.

For that kind of load you need something pretty substantial underneath or you will end up with 'Flinstone brakes' on that trailer.

Best of luck.

After running an engine that hot I would replace the thermostat that diverts the coolant to the radiator. Its a cheap part and may have been damaged during the "hot spell" it may subsequently reduce your current working temperature as well.

I've got the Cadet MMM and it is off right now and I can't quite remember how the lift works. I'm guessing it is attempting to lift too high. Have someone slowly lower and lift the mower while you peek underneath and see if any obstructions exist. If not, use a stop on your lift lever to restrict upward motion.

In "THEORY" the installation is the reverse of removal, but in practice it just doesn't work that way. Installation is almost a required two person job, as was stated before, one person can line it all up, but you need the "third hand" to get the center link pin installed. If the rest stands were better designed this shouldn't be necessary. I've tried various blocks of wood and shims and anything I can think of to help in the allignment, nothing seems to work.

I have found that if you split the driveshaft into its two pieces, attach the spline to the tractor, then roll the tractor, by hand, back to the catcher and slide the shaft together again. This is much easier than trying to get your hand down to the slpine locking collar after assembly. Now if I can only get that center pin in...

Tracer, yes air in the system will do exactly what you describe, and yes even a minute leak in the return line can cause a LOT of air to enter the system.

The good news is that something like that is usually a quick & (relatively) inexpensive repair. If you took it to the dealer he will certainly use factory parts, they can be a lot more money than the equivalent non-OEM part but that's the case with anything.

Best of luck.

Randy, if you laid it all out carefully you could have the trap & skeet close enough to the driving range that you would never have to pick up the balls, at least not if your aim was good. You would go through a lot of balls though.

A guy near here started a 'game bird preserve' and is doing quite well with it. He has several quonset's in which he raises game birds, then he releases a few and people pay to come in a hunt them.

The big advantage is that you can 'hunt' out of season since they are not wild birds. A lot of people use it as a training facility to keep themselves and their dogs in top form.

Best of luck.

Lets start simple first.

1. Check the fuses in the fuse panel. There are fuses there that won't let the engine crank and also, won't let the engine shut off.
2. Check the seat switch wires for a pinched wire, sometimes they get caught under the seat linkage. Also, check behind the dash, the safety circuit wires sometimes get caught up in the brake return springs.

If the tractor wont crank it makes it sound like there is a ground out in the saftey circuit. The PTO switch or the range switch, or the foward reverse lever if the tractor is new enough could be the problem due to if any of them are engaged you won't get power to the starter from the key.

If you have any more info let me know.

I have a CC 7265 with a mid mount mower that keeps bending the pins on the rear lift linkages. The deck is made by Woods for CC. Does anyone have a fix for this? I mow three times and need new pins because they are bent right over.

Maybe just some unasked for detail here but maybe interesting to some. Supplemental grounds for outbuildings are required here only for buildings that house livestock. The main idea is to ensure that neutral and earth potentials are the same. Especially in dairy operations tingling from differences in potentials can sure put them off their food and make them cranky.

Generally supplemental grounds are undesirable since they can set up ground loops that may use power and reduce life of the grounding system. Around here grounding rods start loosing their effectiveness at around five years anyway and plates last only a little longer.

Regarding disconnects: For separate structures, a circuit breaker for a single circuit or a double breaker for two circuits qualifies. Anything else takes a sub-panel with a main breaker or a separate disconnect box. The neutral and ground busses cannot be bonded.

Kubota's are known for there longevity and relaibility. They have many features that help to make maintenience and servicing easy. There are no hot spots to have to worry about when the tractor gets ten years old.

I'd have it priced around 10,000 depending on the condition up or down. 1200 hours on a Kubota are not that many for one when taken care of. I've seen both landscapers as well as golf coarses go both ways on care.
