I have a 2004 Century 3040 (same as a Branson 4020 I believe) that I want to install rear remotes on. I purchased what is supposed to be the parts I need from someone on Ebay who was parting out his tractor. I am hoping someone who already has rear remotes on their tractor can verify that I do...
I have a Century 3040 (same as Branson 4020 I believe). While working on the fuel solenoid which doesn't retract since the boot is broken I noticed the two front bolts on the frame which appear to go into the engine are broken. The rest of the 6 bolts were loose. I tightened the remaining 6 and...
My Century 3040 broke a tie rod end last week. I ordered the upgrade kit and it was a little harder replacing than I thought it would be. Can anyone please tell me what the torque should be on the castle nuts at the tie rod ends (where the cotter pin goes) ? Thanks.
I have a Century 3040, same as Branson 4020 I believe. When I turn the key on the Glow Plug light comes on but the ticking I used to hear while that light was on has stopped. The tractor seems to start as good as ever but it is stored inside. From what I can find out from a Google search the...
I have a 450 square foot studio with 8 foot ceilings over top of my garage. Since it's a studio I have two layers of 1/2 drywall over resilient channel. It is well insulated and only has two small windows and a door. I am looking at the Mitsubishi Mr Slim 21 Seer heat pump system. I hope...
I just bought a Taylorway backhoe for my Century 3040 which I believe is the same as the Branson 4220. Does anyone know where I could buy a subframe for this tractor and about how much it would cost. Has anyone tried a backhoe just using the 3 point hitch ? I live in eastern Ky. Thanks.
Is anyone out there still using a C-band (big dish) ? Seems there is less of us all the time. I still use mine and I wouldn't trade it for anything. I upgraded a few years ago to the 4DTV receiver, you need these now to receive the digital channels. I subscribe to about 75 digital channels and...
I know very little about hydraulics. I need to slow down the lift and fall of my hydraulic sickle mower bar. It only has one hose going from the quick connect to the hydraulic cylinder. I assume gravity lets the sickle bar fall. I have 2 Parker flow control valves but I don't know where to...
(Century 3040 tractor) After hooking up my new bush hog up today for the first time I tried to engage the PTO lever and it would only go in with a grinding sound as it is engaging and now the PTO turns the bush hog even if I push the clutch all the way in. The only way to stop the PTO is to...
Although my Century 3040 tractor has a little over 200 hours on it the PTO was never used. I just took the plastic shield off today. I noticed the pto shaft constantly turning while the tractor was running with the PTO lever disengaged. I can hold the shaft with my hand and it will stop turning...
This is my first post so I hope I do it right. I just bought a Century 3040 with 220 hours off of Ebay for $8000. I never got to see the tractor before I bought it and had it shipped here. The only experience I have with tractors is with my Ford 1710 that I have owned for 20 years. I need to...
