Poor Hydraulic System
Model Year: 1966
I totally took out the hydraulics and by-passed their set up. It has 4 small valves and they continually would plug up and you would have no hydraulics unless you bled the line to prime it. It got fed up with that. It is hard to find a radiator for the tractor but most parts are still available. Very very good on fuel. I can work it hard and get almost 2 full days out of a tank full. The loader is also very strong and lifts like Jack the Bear. Overall I am pleased with the unit.
Pros: Fuel consumption, loader capabilities.
Cons: Hydraulics.
