    3-Point Hitch Busted Casting

    A young man with a Thermal Arc 3 in 1 machine came over and did a real nice job of repairing my broken casting. Thanks for all of your comments. Mike

    Weld or Braze

    I want to follow up on this thread since the young man came out with his Thermal Arc 3 in one machine and did a very nice job on my broken casting. Here are some pictures. He told me he used both stick and wire.

    Weld or Braze

    I had an accident and broke off the casting for my 3-point hitch. Since it is cast iron would it be better to have it brazed or welded?

    3-Point Hitch  Busted Casting

    I had an accident with my 3 point hitch and busted a casting off the Brake Case where the lower right link attaches. I tried epoxy but it didn't hold. Any recommendations?

    Loader  CT 235 Loader Arms only going half way up.

    I was out back clearing brush and as I brought the CT 235 back up by the house I discovered the loader arms will only raise half way up. The hydraulic fluid level is full and there are no leaks, I have an EA wicked single gate grapple attached and it is working fine, so does the tilt or curl...

    Loader CT 235 Power Forward?

    Well I finally got this job done. I picked up my new EA Grapple today. Installed it in about 10 minutes and went to work. Man this thing is a beast! Pulling up multi-flora roses like nothing to it. Piles of brush - no problem. I want to thank everyone who helped me along the way. When I...

    Dead Spot on Starter?

    I have a 2009 Troybilt Lawn 'tractor wih a 17.5 HP Briggs and Stratton engine. I thought I was having battery problems cause after sitting for a day or two it wouldn't start. It would bump the flywheel forward about 10 degrees and then stop. Today I charged the battery full and tried it. It...

    Loader  Rear Auxiliary Lever Extension

    I'm working on the hydraulics in preparation of buying a grapple this coming spring. I decided not tp use a 3rd function or a diverter so I'll be using the lever control for the Rear Remotes. The lever is about 6 or 7 inches shorter that the loader control lever. I've been following a lot of...

    Loader CT 235 Power Forward?

    Thanks again to every body. I got the remote kit from Bobcat installed with only a couple problems. The biggest one was the seat. Man is that sucker heavy! I advise anyone to separate it into two sections before you lift it out of there. It's a lot easier to handle that way. The other one...

    Loader  CT 235 Power Beyond Picture?

    On the left of this image you can see the two cables from the loader joystick, on the right you can see the yellow and green cable ties on the of the loader cylinder lines. In the very center bending down and then toward the center line of the tractor I believe is the Return line to the pump...

    Loader  CT 235 Power Forward?

    Can anyone tell me where the power forward connector on the CT235 is? Underneath the floorboard on the right side there is a block with Yellow, Green, Red and Blue marked connectors. Right above them there are two Black "Ports" that look like they are capped off. Is that where it is? I'm...

    Thanks to everyone. What a great forum!

    I was having a problem with my CT235. It was running fine but when I shut it down to take a break it wouldn't start when I got back. All the right lights came on and I could hear the relays pick up but no starter motor. I came in and looked through some old posts here and found the answer...

    Hi Everyone, My name is Mike. I recently bought a Bobcat CT-235 from a local equipment rental (Leppo). I haven't had any experience to share so far but I'm happy to see this Forum. My tractor had 534 hours and they gave me a 6 month warranty. I only used it for a little while before the...
