    L3130 won't start

    Hi guys, When I turn the key on, I get full lights and flashers. The battery is original but has a green light. When I turn the key to start I get a fast clicking noise. I am guessing it's the starter? Thanks for any help. RPK

    Grading  Landscape rake

    Can anyone point me to a web site or explain the proper way to adjust a landscape rake. I have a 7' Landpride with caster wheels. For the most part I use it to dress up and grade a sandy beach. I always seem to dig in too deep. Thanks for any help. RPK

    520 hydro question

    My son has an older 520 Hydro. While plowing snow during the winter a tire chain broke off a plastic fan that is exposed near the rear wheel. I am guessing that this fan helps to cool the hydraulic fluid?? How difficult is it to replace that fan? And how important is it?? Thanks for any help.

    Chipper  wood chipper...again

    I found a used Patu DC 40 manual feed chipper for sale. The owner fired it up on his Ford 7N. The tractor was just above idle and it chipped a dry 3" piece pretty well. The thing that was odd was that the hopper was low and parallel to the ground. I thought most manual feed chippers'...

    L3130 radiator repair

    I had my first mishap with my tractor the other day. Not exactly sure but I think while I was clearing a lot full of brush I ran over a broken sappling. Whatever it was found its way up under the engine and bent the bottom of the radiator and lost most of the antifreeze. I got it home and...
