A month after I bought a 1533 HST, Loader and Backhoe my stupid dealer up and closes shop one morning. I remember everyone telling me your buying a tractor but your marring the dealer - we'll my dealer done left me before my first Warranty visit (that sounds like a C&W song).
Anyway since I don't have a dealer I've been gathering stuff for my first 50 hour oil change and such (thanks to all you folk who found the filter part numbers) and was wondering if it was worth going to Full Synthetic (I have T6 in my dodge)? Also what about the Tranny/Hydraulic oil any favorites?
Two other items I was going to bug the dealer about when I had my 50 hours service but now have to fix myself;
1. the bucket dump is crazy slow - like 7 seconds loaded or unloaded.
2. I'm getting this weird pulse in the three point when it's up, but only when I have the grader blade on, not when the box blade is attached. My grader blade (Land Pride RB3584) may be heavier that my Box Blade (5-foot Rankin) but not by more than 100-ish lbs.
3. I was thinking about buying a thumb for the 1538B backhoe where can I get that? another brand dealer? Are the KMW backhoes common?
As you can tell I'm kind of bent about being left high and dry.
