went to do my first drain on the hydro fluid and certianly did NOT get enough oil, the manual calls for 14qts ( Just under 4 gallons ). What I ended up using was closer to 7 1/2 gallons. About 1/2 a gallon went to flushing out the loader lines, other than that, it all went in the same hole. I...

Using my new to me KUHN EL-32-150 tiller, seemed to do a very nice job. The tiller appears to have had very limited use by previous owner. Decided to go with this one over a KK11 because of the ability to offset it in the 'unlikely' event that my little tractor gets replaced with a little...

Stopped buy to local IH dealer yesterday to get some cat 1 to 2 bushings for the Oliver ( neighbor boy lost 'em, but hes another story ) and noticed a clean looking 'older' woods blade, $175 later its in the back of the truck. Doesn't look like its EVER been used, all the paint is still on the...

have been trying to get back to their web site for contact numbers but the entire site is down or gone. Looking to get a price on a "60 tiller from them BEFORE I end up buying a KKII. DuaneW.

1428V Hydro, I often find myself in high range just because reverse is so darned slow, any way you can speed up reverse in ALL THREE RANGES? And I dont need lectures on going fast in reverse being dangerous and all, some jobs simply take to long with the slow reverse in this thing. Thanks...

Has anyone put a tank heater on one of these tractor, would like to have a heater, but really dont want to do a freeze plug heater. Dont know why, just doesnt look like the best solution if there is an option. Guess I just hate taking something that is not leaking and giving it a reason to...

This was my first attempt at actual digging with my new (now has 85 hrs ) 1428 massey. All in all I think it did an excellent job and was impressed. The ground was so hard it was difficult to get a shovel into. Trees are Autum (sp?) Blaze maple. need shade in the front of the house in summer...

after changing my oil for the first time, I found how good a job of making things difficult ISEKI did. I will have to get a little filter wrench, but I have corrected the oil filling problem. The fill port on the side of the motor is so tucked behind the starter and other wiring that you cant...

My toy was delivered last week, its a new old stock 1428V Hydro, with a 1520 loader, Quick Attatch, and also a pallet fork. Got it all for $14,700 + tax. Think I did pretty good. Have a couple of questions, 1st one is how do you get the darned glow plugs to fire? did not notice any lights...
