You must be thinking of a rear blower right?

Not a fan (no pun intended) of rear blowers, my old neck don't like twisting no more.

Nortrac stuff is mostly middling in terms of quality and the price matches.

Sure its real.

How long we have to change it ? Who knows! May have much more or much less. Man plans God laughs.

I do not think we should go full Monte on it, but we ought to do something.

I am old enough to remember how much I did NOT like Jimmy Carter when he was president. Main reason I did not like him was the EPA restrictions on making cars fuel efficient.

Now I have to say how SMART Carter was, so we ought to be smart and do what is reasonable plus a little more so that we give ourselves a challenge.

Are the poles rotting now? Are they UC-4B rated for in ground contact? If so they should last a very long long time.

All of the candidates are either bought or the Billionaire multi level marketer Trump wants to own or buy you out. None of the GOP is sadly much to get excited about.

It is sad state of affairs when the candidates in the GOP and Democratic parties are what they are!

Please read this thread and let me know if it clears up your question on draft control.

Here is one of the better explanations

[i]Jon, think of 'draft control' as a form of 'auto-pilot' for the 3pth, you set it to a particular point and the draft control maintains it there.

In ag. use the draft control would be used to, for instance, keep a plow from digging in too far and stopping the tractor. Instead when the load got too great it would automatically raise the 3pth, and the plow with it. The system uses a sensing mechanism connected to the upper link of the 3pth, when you push or pull against the upper link it moves a valve that remotely operates the two lift arms that the implement hangs off.

I'm not sure that you could get the draft control sensitive enough to do what you want but it theory it should, you might need to work at a slower speed to allow it sufficient reaction time that's all.

BTW, draft also means pull, or work, as in draft horses.

Best of luck.[/i]

You never know...but the folks up in Buffalo wish last winters snow was only a photoshop illusion.

Videorov, it would certainly have to be photoshop in Bradenton FL :-)

Hey it is only August and snow does seem very far away.

Is there air/water in the hydraulic fluid?

Unless you know something is terribly wrong with the Hoe I would just let it all mix together as it will and then change all the fluids to whatever your tractor runs on when you want to.

Probably too late now but anyone try a core aerator? Too pricey to buy I suppose, wonder if they can be rented for a 3PH type?

Generally on most makes with hydrostatic transmission you need to push the clutch in to put it in 4WD. Also your wheels should be facing straight ahead not turning.

While I have found on Kubota's you can skip pushing in the lutch on hydros while driving straight ahead and just slide it into 4WD while moving forward.

Sometimes you need to move forward a little in 2WD to get things aligned if the lever is reluctant I have found.

Are we talking about a tractor or a Gator?

When you say cleaned do you mean it was hosed and or pressure washed on the engine? with or without what cleaning agents?

Be careful around that battery sounds like you have a short. I would disconnect the terminals when charging it until you determine where the short is.

Vince,

That is good to hear! I have always thought of Kioti as the Korean Twin of Kubota. Just like Hyundai was the twin of Honda.

I think if Kioti had not gone through all the transformation from Kubota Orange to Bobcat Black and White and back we would probably have a different market today.

But all these changes take their toll and just get the consumer confused about whether buying that brand is a good idea or not.
