[QUOTE=dave5000;200114] I'll guess I can just buy a roll of line and cut to length? Thoughts/concerns? [/QUOTE]

Yeah just buy what you need, depending where you buy could be a precut length, but as Murf said the stuff dries out and you rarely need it.

How are you making out with this has the warm weather helped any?

I am so used to buyng pricey synthetic oil where I buy only 5 quarts not gallons for $27 that $6 for 4 quarts just seemed crazy low. Have not used dinosaur oil in 30 years at least.

The original poster is obviously in a whole other zone than me in using serious equipment rather than a Tractor avocation guy like me.

For my light use I cannot afford ;-( to use Dino oil and will continue using the premium stuff though who really knows if it matters at all. Probably more marketiing than reality.

My local TSC has their brand 15 w 40 Dino Travelors 5 Gallons for $40 (8/gal) so thanks for the price reality check Murf.

Bear in mind "farming" in Asia is very different than it is in North America or other less densely populated areas.

This tractor, according to the video, is a 14.75 hp unit that they say can pull a 2 ton trailer (very little resistance) for [u]up to[/u] 8 hours.

It seems more like a heavy duty electric UTV than tractor to me.

Best of luck.

In honour of St. Paddy's Day, AND this being a tractor group......

A Texan rancher goes on vacation to Ireland and meets a local farmer.

The Texan says: "It would take me a whole day to drive one of my tractors from one side of my ranch to the other."

The Irish farmer says: "Ah sure, I know, sir. We have a few John Deere tractors over here too."

Best of luck.

My inlaws have place in North Carolina mountains where they take their Polar UTV's on the trails. I am definitely going to suggest that he get a small electric to keep in the UTV for emergencies where they are many many miles from home should a tree block their return.

1996 MF 231 with aux hydraulic pump added on at the time of sale. This was my dad's tractor but he passed away 3 years after buying. I don't use much but the belt is starting to break apart.<br>
<br>
I don't see anyway to replace the belt as the bottom pulley on the front of the engine looks like it was replaced with one that has a spindle going out the front of the tractor to the pump. I've had to replace part of the spindle and removing the pump is no big deal. However between the pulley on the engine and the part of the spindle I removed looks like it goes thru a hole in the frame with maybe enough space for a slice of paper to go thru. I have not been able to find a break down to see if I can remove the pulley or the proper way to replace the belt. Any help is greatly appreciated.<br>

After checking everything I had my wife turn the steering while in neutral and engine revved a little. I had replaced the alternator some time ago and the back "lip" on it was pressed up against the power steering pump and only while revved a little and turning I could see a steady stream of fluid coming from a seam in the power steering pump.

I removed the alternator and used an angle grinder to remove about 2mm of "lip" and figured I would have to replace the power steering pump. But once I had the alternator off I could see the power steering pump went back to normal looking where it had been leaking. Thankful that fixed it.

I have to fix my 1/2 mile gravel lane...lots of potholes, ruts and gravel in ditches.
I have a rollover box blade that i will use to level as best as i can, then fill the holes.

Then, I'll move my firewood bins back into the shed for storage.
After that, probably start to move logs to cut them and prep for splitting.
Then, Harvest more downed trees for firewood.
Then fix the road again because it's a shared lane and it gets abused at times.
Then more firewood stuff
Then split and stack that stuff ;)

BUT FIRST i need to change my fuel filter and see if that fixes my high rpm issue (other post in Other Tractor brands- Mahindra)
And change my oil & lube...

Soon as the weather gets a bit warmer - maybe this week? Maybe tomorrow :)

These are nice little tractors. I've owned mine sense 1996 it has 829.9 hrs just replaced the deck with a new 44" from a 48". Deck idlers are a semi annual replacement. You can drill the idler and replace the bearings with a 62203 bearing. The idler on the hydraulic pump has a tendency to lock up. It will appear to be a pump problem but it's just the idler not tensioning the belt

Some people really know what tractors are who! LOL I believe that one might have been really made by mitshibitshi and you would have had or might have had better luck for info at a Mahindra dealer for specs and parts at this time.... So many built are still like this yet today!!

Dennis the tractor it is on is a grand L-6060hstc. The rear blower we are doing quite a few with at this point. 80" has been the most common we have sold to pro snow movers and this has been the favorite model. The front blade system is a time saver with it's versatility but it is not for the typical home owner as most want a loader on the front and costs less the same as the rear drive blower.

Ag tires have been the most functional for us on these tractors for driving over the deeper snow for removal. There are many makes and models of the blower at this point but these are standard back up to the garage door and pull away! Clean!!

Cut the pressure line. Run the pump side to the IN on the control valve & the other end to the OUT of the valve. I braze pipe fittings on the line. Compreeion fittings can also be used.

I would check that your glow plugs are getting hot.

If runs great after starting I do not think the fuel pump is the issue.

I have a massey 135 with 3 point hitch lift issue. when the position lift lever is moved up very little the 3 point goes all the way up. I removed the top cover to find a small spring only attached on one end . I cannot determine where the other end is supposed to be attached. the end that is attached is attached to a piece of flat steel linkage thru a hole<br>
