I need to share a cautionary tale. Not a bad ending but my dealer did right by me. I own a Massy GC1705 Hydro trans, I used a transmission oil the was non OEM it did however advertised that their met the spec. I worked my tractor hard but in my opion did not abuse it. I did all the routine...

The number 1 repeated suggestion "buy from a local dealer" The dealer you purchase from can make your life miserable or he can be easy to work with. Unless you do all of your own maintenance you will need a good dealer. I've owned an old ford a new Kubota and a used Kubota and now a Massey...

Anybody having second thoughs about replacing the gear oil with permatran transmission fluid? My owners manual states Permatran for both applications.

When I working with the loader and am using ballast it will leak down periodically and I have to keep lifting it back up or it will drag. Say over the period of an hour or 2.

Has anyone had an issue with their GC1700 series tractor 3pt leaking down fairly quickly? If so what was the fix? Thanks in advance.

Bumper pulls if not set up properly can get you into a wreck. a goose neck is the safest way to tow heavy. I think a bumper pull is easier to back but you can learn to back a goose neck also.

This works about as well as anything I've tried, except moving LOL. I used to live in S GA and had lots of pecan trees over a 100 years old, the spring cleanup was a real chore. However we moved to N GA and it is no longer a problem, now it is walnuts.

696395 Darryle, attached is the measurements it is the same as the white/Oliver 12-3

I second the Ferris recommendation and also not the 60 or 72 inch models. a 48in will cut in 1/2 the time of a lawn tractor. No hills are recommended by the manufactures but you can cut on hills within reason. The SCAG recommendation is also a good one, my buddy has a SCAG that is 20 years old...

What I am looking for is very very close to the Oliver/White 0 12-3

Well this helps. I just added a new post with some new info. I removed the share and it had Star MF co stamped in the back of it and numbers HS 111 I think the stamping was light and rust has obliterated some of the letters.

I recently purchased a bottom plow and need to replace the point. I am having a hard time finding one to fit. So the question is does anyone have a Star catalog. I found Star MF CO stamped on the back side with the numbers HS 111. Any help in identifying a replacement would be much appreciated.

I am finding some information on Taylor Pittsburgh but very little to nothing on a single bottom plow. so far I also have not found a matching plow share it has a 3 hole pattern with the front 2 holes close together. I've always heard once on the internet it is always there but I can not find...

Anyone know about this plow. It could use some parts replaced but I cannot find anything on Pittsburgh plows online.

I traded for a WAC finish mower, I see parts for this mower and several others IE First Choice, Sicma, Kioti, Phoenix mentioned. If you have a WAC or one of the others and happen to have an owners manual I'd be eternally grateful if I could get a copy. I am refurbishing mine and it will be like...
