I recently started using my new B2601. The treadle pedal is very hard to press forward or reverse. Is there some adjustment to make this easier? My previous tractor was a Power Trac 425 that had a hair trigger treadle. This is going to be difficult to get used to. Patrick

My troubles started in Dec 2017 in what I thought was a treadle valve issue: https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/power-trac/387716-pt-425-tredle-problem-i.html?highlight=#post4907088. I had a couple of harrowing experiences where upon starting the tractor it would bolt forward rapidly without...

Yeh, I came to the same conclusion. However, PT should have noticed the leak when they removed it and not shipped it back to me in that condition... Anyway, I am going to try the idea of using a bulkhead fitting before trying another two alternatives (more on those later). I sent the pic with...

The crack in in the bottom nipple that holds the elbow fitting. The crack gets bigger as the fitting is screwed-in. Note the remnants of an o-ring.

I recently sent my pt-425 back to Power-Trac for a main pump replacement. When it was returned, it ran fine so I filled the gas tank and planned to use it on the weekend. When I went to start it I felt fuel on the cuttoff switch. Eventually, found that the tank bottom port that holds the elbow...

My PT -425's tredle dose not spring back quite like it used to when released. The tractor seems to want to continue moving forward when tredle is released. Also, reverse is very slow. The tractor still still articulates and lifts as usual. I removed the side plates and cleaned debris from the...

See Tribute. There are photos of the founder's family. Also, an interesting photo of a PT 422 besides a Low Trac. Tribute

Page 18 of my 2010 PT425 parts manual is attached below. The nut may be item 7: 1 1/4-12 half locknut. Hope this helps.

Tried to start my PT425 today. It seamed like battery was low, so tried to jump start. Noticed fluid leaking from air filter cover. :eek: Immediately removed battery cables, etc just as the gas fumes became strong smelling. My retired mechanic neighbor and I drained almost a gallon of gas-oil...

Ventrac announced the 4500 model with 31/32 HP gas/propane engine models. No diesels will be offered after 2012. They claim the engine manufacturers will not be offering the engines currently use by Ventrac. The attached video refers to the fact that new EPA reqs are driving this move...

I am building extension hoses for some of my attachments for my PT-425. I will explain more in another thread. The stock quick disconnects are Stucci (Italian) -- have not been able to find on-line. Does anyone have a compatibility chart listing other brand models that can connect to the...

Folks, Take a look at the video ion this thread: Face to face with a Coyote - TractorByNet.com Shows a guy taking a video of a coyote attacking him. We have them in the area -- it sure would be nice to have a cab on the PT if one decides to visit.
