Thank you for your thoughts. I bought a 1510 D to replace the 1610 D it was a very good price and in excellent condition. I am limited as to what I can do nowadays & do not have the equipment or help to split the tractor and pull the motor. Most 'on board' repairs I can do. Limited on funds...

Afternoon! found a REALLY well kept an clean 1500dw/fell not going into all the stuff i have gone thru to see if my 1610d was worth fixing. Block is cracked. I am 70 yrs old as of tue. and the cost of repair will be as much if not more than the 1500 w/fell, and I have basicly, no one to help...

Hi.. is an 1120 fwd to small to pull/carry a house 4ft brush hog and run a 4 ft tiller. I think that would be pushing the tractor to much. and not sure if it could carry a 400 lb mower or run those two implements at 14 hp. but there is one close to me and in very good shape. and i have a koyker...

Hi folks. well my pto shaft snapped off flush with the housing today. No new shafts available. Hoye is checking salvage for me. Anyone here ever removed a pto assembly or replaced the shaft? I haven't pulled anything yet to inspect the assembly. what's left of the shaft turns ok, all speeds...

Tilled with my Rs1400 for the first time a couple of days ago. Tho it's a little larger than recommended for my 1610D & the soil here is black gumbo, all went well. The tiller did a good job & the tractor didn't protest as long as I didn't try to take too deep a bite. However; the tiller is...

Well I've decided its about time to service the tractor and get it ready for spring/summer. I have also decided that for convenance/performance sake I want to switch to atf in my yanmar & log splitter. A friend has a splitter he bought used that has atf in it and it was ready to split from start...

I'm planning on using my tractor to aid me in repairing & clearing some fence rows that have been neglected for several yrs. There is a 2 to 4 ft band of saplings and brush between the fence rows and mostly open meadows they enclose. ranging in size from 1/4 to 3 1/2" in dia. a very few Up to 4"...

I finally got My 1610D up and running. This is my first tractor by the way, so I've spent the last few days feeling out the tractor & the controls. I experimented with different wheel, cutting angle, & toplink settings on the howse 4ft mower I picked up for the tractor. Figured out how to work...
