TX 2160F, with front loader and backhoe, long term project

[chrismac]

Well the 3 point linkage issue has now been resolved and my understanding of the hydraulics is a little better now too, I can now in the future get my head around how the spool valve is piped in,

Pipework to suit the manifold I had to get the 3 point linkage working only,

3 Point linkage set bought and fitted, some issues when fitting but got it all together, the upper swivel brackets did not fit so I ended up using the existing,

Next purchase is going to be a rotovator, give the little machine something to work with.

Been a little while since I have done much but I took the sump off and used the origional gasket and some rtv silicon and that seems to have cured the small leak I had, it was a good chance to check the bearings for my own peice of mind when I was in there,

I have started making a rear box

nice work! BTW, as you were pulling it all apart, do you recall details of the Oil Pressure Switch Sensor. I need a mew one here i the UK for my TX2160 and cannot locate the part number. I have not workshop manual either!

Re: Spool valve and PTO pump question

A bit of an update, things are progressing slowly, I am waiting on a gasket set coming from Europe

Hi, can you share where you find this gasket set? I have the same problem (finding gaskets) for my iseki tx1500, many thanks.

Hi, I have had a look and there is not much information on the pressure switch, try smalltractors.co.uk they had plenty of bits and peices when I gave them a shout, or handy compacts on ebay,

Part numbers are, 5663-021-556-00 and 5661-066-112-00, good luck taking that anywhere and getting any joy though.

Any work done on the backhoe?

I need to start a project soon to connect some custom-made backhoe (excavator?) onto my tx1500. Yours also looks like non-standard, so i am really curious how it is (supposed to be) connected...?

thx M.
