IT LOOKS LIKE THE TYPE OF PLUG LIKE U WOULD FIND ON THE BACK OF A BOAT OR LAWN ROLLER---WHEN YOU SCREW IT IN, IT SQUEEZES THE RUBBER PLUG EXPANDING IT TO SEAL IT, NO THREADS. TRY UNSCREWING IT WHILE PULLING UP ON IT. IF IT IS THAT TYPE OF PLUG, THE NUT OR PLATE ON THE BOTTOM MIGHT BE TURNING AS...

I BOUGHT THE TRACTOR USED AND ALL THE OILS HAD BEEN CHANGED AND WERE FRESH--70 HRS AGO. BROLE A COUPLE OF HYD LINES AND LOST ENOUGH OIL AND WANT TO TOP OFF. DON'T KNOW WHAT WAS USED WNEN LAST CHANGED. THANKS TO ALL WHO RESPONDED.

I CAN'T SEEM TO FIND ANY OF THE BOOK RECOMMENDED OILS LOCALY. SO I'M THINKING TRAVELERS PREMIUM. COMMENTS.

AS I HAVE EXPLAINED MANY TIMES, I HAVE NERVE DAMAGE TO MY HAND AND ELBOWS MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO TYPE. SO I HUNT AND PECK. IT'S EASIER FOR ME TO USE ALL CAPS THAN TO USE LOWER CASE. IF I'VE OFFENDED YOU---SORRY.

IT'S LOW ON HYD OIL. I HAVEN'T CHANGED IT SINCE I'VE OWNED IT --70 HRS. OIL IS CLEAR AND CLEAN. WHAT OIL TO TOP IT OFF WITH? DON'T KNOW WHATS IN IT.

THANKS

ALL MY MANUEL SAYS IS 15-W40 CC 0R CD---I WAS LOOKING AT MOBILE 1300 BUT DON'T SEE EITHER OF THOSE SPECS. WHAT TO USE?

AS MY NAME SAYS, I HAVE A JD"A" MODEL 1946. I'VE USED IT AROUND MY 28 ACERS FOR 30 YEARS AND STILL USE IT TO MOW. I BOUGHT A KIOTI 4010 A FEW YEARS AGO BECAUSE I'M OLD AND WANTED A TPH AND POWER STEERING. LOVE THE A.

ANY TIM A RUBBER TIRED LOAD IS HAULED, THE STRAPS OR CHAINS SHOULD BE AS CLOSE TO HORIZONTAL AS POSSIBLE. OVER THE FRONT AXIL AND OVER THE DRAW BAR.

THERE IS A GOOD VIDEO ABOUT DEALERS AND SERVICE/WARRANTY ON "TRACTOR MIKES" YOU-TUBE-SITE.

I JUST PUT A 12V BATTERY IN MY 6V JD A. IF IT STARTS EASILY, IT WILL LAST ALONG TIME. THE 12 WILL REALLY SPIN THE 6V STARTER. NEVER HAD ANY TROUBLE.

I'VE HAD THAT HAPPEN A FEW TIMES. I JUST KEPT ON GOING AND CONCENTRATED ON SWATTING AT THE ONES NEAR ME. GOT STUNG A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT NOT A LOT. CANT SHUT DOWN OR SHIFT FAST WITH MY OLD JD A. JUST RIDE IT OUT.

THANKS FOR THE INFO.

THINKING ABOUT USING A HORIZONTAL 275 GAL FUEL TANK FOR OFF ROAD FUEL. SUPPLY COMPANY HAS A 150 GAL MIN. I WONT USE THAT MUCH IN 3 YEARS. HAS ANYONE HAD ANY EXPERIENCE OR COMMENTS WITH THAT SYSTEM?

TRY "DAVE KNOWS" HE HAS SOME SCHEMATICS FO DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS.
