I have seen skid steers float the bucket going forward and seemed like a good way to clean up for the final finish. I have also had difficulty doing this. I think I must bounce too much and wind up moving the lever and lifting the tractor. I guess I just need to practice. Jerri

Is installing a 3 rd SCV a job that has to be done by a dealer? Can a person with average mechanical skill do this?

I use a single bottom 3 pt plow with my 26 hp cub 4 wd. Chains on the rear turfs, 4wd, and diff lock as needed. Used it for the garden and making some drainage ditches. Got into some pretty soupy stuff there but did OK.

In 16 years of using a 1050, I think I heard the whine only several times and that was at 2400 RPM under a heavy load such as pulling a sod drill up a steep hill while planting and while pulling a 7 ft Hesston 1071 mower conditioner up the same hill. If the 1050 had had quick tatch on the loader, syncromesh, and some springs under the seat, I'd probably still have it!

I bought a JD 4300 last Oct. And it has been a great tractor. It only has 110 hrs. of use. I have had no problems with my 4300 and the dealer has been the best. Tractor has a 430 loader w/h.d.73" bucket, 6' box scraper, 5' bush hog mower and a 5' rototiller. Everything works great and I am a happy camper. By the way I have only 2 acres but I take on odd jobs in the area and do work for my neighbors, for a price.

While checking over my JD 955,I noticed that the forward yoke for the drive shaft has some side play on the splined input shaft at the mfwd. I ordered a new yoke and it also seems a little loose. The aft yoke also has some play, but not as much as the front one. I cannot tell if the splined shaft is worn and at $500 for a new spline assy., I am reluctant to throw a new shaft at it if there really isn't a problem. Does anybody know how to determine if the splined shaft is worn? Does anybody know if some play is normal? I overheard some truckers talking about greasing worn splines. Is this a good idea? any comments on this subject would be appreciated. Thank You.

Well I've decided to take the plunge with the TC35D with 16LA loader. In my tests this past weekend you can move the bucket and boom at the same time. Should be delivered this Friday! This seems like a really good machine, I can hardly wait.

My TC33 does have the work spot light, which is very handy at dusk, that is connected by the signal light. It does have its own switch as Micheal pointed out. Power to this light is ran through the ignition switch.

The response of the loader, backhoe (uses tractor pump) and 3Pt all suddenly got very slow and jerky especially when lifting. I've checked fluid level OK and no signs of leaks anywhere. I suspect a pump or strainer problem but would appreciate any information that could help with troubleshooting.

My JD 650 has been running great... still does but only 3 of the four wheels move! It worked normally the last use. Parked it in the garage (as you can now tell its pampered) no problems or indications of anything abnormal. It has been sitting about three weeks. Now when I went to drive it the right rear wheel is frozen. I tried rocking it driving in 1st and reverse. Then I put that side up on the floor jack and tried to rock it by hand, it will move a quarter of an inch back and forth and "feels" like it might be "hung up" inside the gearbox??? It is an 86' mfwd, let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks<br>

Sometimes by "bumping" the bucket against the stop a time or two (dump all the way fast) you can jar the remaining material out of the bucket, but unfortunately there are times that it just doesn't all fall out if it's sticky enough.

This is a common question on many of the grey market boards. You might want to check with some of the grey market dealers for a used tiller set up for the reverse rotation. I hear alot of Satoh owners talking about this. Let me know if you need to know who to contact but you might start out at the Yahoo Mitsubishi board.

Thanks everyone for the input on the Jinma tractor if anyone is interested I have listed 2 of the site that carry the tractor there are more. The one with the 2 year warranty and has parts for any china tractors is www.chinadepot.com and another one is www.boltonpowerequip.com. The best deal was from hardy diesel
but I do not know how long there warranty is. As for warranty what you do is take to a local repair shop and they pay for repairs after they have been approved by the company where you brought it. Some of the above companines sell up to a 40 hp tractor. I keep everyone posted to my progress on this tractor.

I've got the same logo on my Ford 1710, which has a Shibaura engine and maybe more Shibaura parts for all I know.

On the 1710, the 4wd lever is the one of the right side of the transmission case, below the 3ph control. 'Back' engages the 4wd. The lever floats a bit back and forth, but there is a definite feeling that something engages when it goes into 4wd. The left side lever is the PTO.

Perhaps the problem can be resolved easier by finding which levers aren't the 4wd. Most tractors have levers for 4wd, 3ph and PTO. You can see the PTO and 3ph work. The remaining lever should be the 4wd.

Some persons seem to have difficulty engaging their 4wd's, I haven't. One of the tricks to engage 4wd is to lift the front wheels with the loader bucket. Centering the steering also may help.

Sounds like it might work, but I haven't heard of somebody doing it. How much force the pivot points are design to withstand could take a little thought. For example, are they designed to withstand hitting something or the operator forgetting to put the hydraulics in float? On the other hand, 'breakaway pivots might be a good idea. Pivot pins may be cheaper to replace than blade parts.

Myself, I plan to get a set of gauge wheels for my box scrapper. Gauge wheels are useful in spreading material. They also should hold the blade off the gravel to use the rear cutter for plowing snow. I probably could drill mounting holes on my blower for them as well. A heavy snow before freeze up would be difficult for me since I run turf tires, and they don't get a lot of traction for plowing.
