I just evidently cracked the hydraulic filter block on my 4046 for the second time in six months .anyone else do this? I was running over some brush both times. Nothing big. I think I could fix it myself if I knew the part number Fluid is pouring out above filter. The filter points...

Have a new harbor freight near me now, they have their quick hitch for $99.00 and a 25% coupon tomorrow only and my daughter gave me a $25.00 gift card for HF. Any thought on how that would work on my XR4046? I have a Rhino SE60 cutter and a box blade that give me the most pain trying to...

I have a three point carry all and I am using it for a boomless sprayer.I put two fifty five gallon drums on it and a 12 volt pump and it works fine. If it is setting on the ground and I hook up, by the time I raise the platform to the height I want. The back is pointing downward at a severe...

Somehow I bent the right step on my XR4046H, not just bent, folded it flat.:( I almost never use the right step, and was wondering about replacing it with a tool box or something. I am afraid to call the dealer and find out how much a new step cost... Any ideas??

I have a 135 gas Continental and have worked on the fuel lines several times and would like to replace them with braided steel lines. As close as that fuel line runs to the muffler and exhaust manifold is that safe? The original steel rusted out, I made new ones out of copper. Somewhere...

My wife's uncle loaned me his Howse 10' three point hitch cutter 4 years ago and said I could use it if I wanted to fix the slip clutch. So I did,put new fiber discs in it etc. I got to use it about 2 hours and he said he needed it. Lately he said he had loaned it out and it wasn't working...

Is there a switched 12 volt source under the dash of a XR4046H? I am going to install a camera on the front grille so I can see what I am doing. Haven't found a available 12 volt lead up there. I know there is a pair unused, on the rops. But I was trying to stay toward the front. Thanks

I have a piece of shiny aluminum diamond plate. I think it would make a good insert for the grille guard, but concerned it might cut down on air flow. I need to get something in there before I run a limb thru my grille.

Is there an accessory that fits in the long slots in the grill guard? It seems like a lot of open space for a limb to get through and do some serious damage. I'm thinking about trying to mount a camera somewhere on the front so I can see my forks and grapple better also.

I bought a Tomahawk stump bucket for my 4046 yesterday and tried it out this morning on a big stump in the front yard . I didnt really think it would do it, I was pleasantly surprised. Had it out of the ground in 10 or 15 minutes. I actually got it to get rid of some saplings I let get out of...

My nephew works for a crop farmer and I asked him to get me some bulk corn. He said the bags held about 2000 pounds. I told him to try to keep them around 1500 pounds each. He forgot to tell the owner and he filled them up. Am I going to be able to handle them with my XR4046? I bought...

this is the new one obviously... I can take a picture of the old one tonight. I need to know which wires to hook up. or if it will even work. Last night I fixed it with a rusty cresent wrench.. a couple of good whacks on the solenoid and it fires right up. Who needs a new one anyway...

I have a 1967 mf135 z145 continental. Having trouble getting the starter to turn over. Kept messing with the wires and after a while it would start. today it wouldn't start. I went back with all kind of tools and meter etc. I noticed when I turned the key on ,a long spark would jump from the...

Was using the tractor yesterday and two orange lights came on the dash. I got the owners manual and think I now know less than I thought I knew before. One had a temperature sign on it and the other looked like a turbo exhaust with back slashes across it, does that mean it is running in the...

My other diesel tractor needs to sit and idle for a few minutes if running hard before you kill the engine,been told to do that so the turbo doesn't gunk up. Is this the same? Wasn't expecting this one to just shut off with the key. My parking brake only beeps 4or 5 times when I get off either...
