    No idea how, but a fuel line fell off my 1735M

    Yeah, that must be what happened. I do a lot of work in my forest.

    No idea how, but a fuel line fell off my 1735M

    I think it's a sort of scavenge line. It's at the lowest part of the tank, I think it's there to suck up the water at the bottom of the tank. There are no diagrams that I was able to find. It drained the entire tank. :-(

    No idea how, but a fuel line fell off my 1735M

    By dumb luck I was walking by my tractor and noticed something hanging underneath it. Go look and it's a hose. Not damaged. Clamp was still on the end of the hose. Trying to find any real documentation on this tractor is a serious pain in the butt. I had to trace the fuel lines all over the...

    1735M - Putting on snow chains isn't as easy as you would think.

    Correct. Just under 2" inches per side is what it gave me.

    King Kutter 72" Rear Blade broken. :-(

    My driveway is well established with all the nearby stumps ground down by our Woodland Mills stump grinder, an implement that works far better than advertised.

    E-mailed King Kutter back and forth several times. Basically came down to me not having the paper copy of my receipt. Their Customer Dis-Service rep Cody told me I was S.O.L. Unless I gave them a receipt. So keep that in mind when you buy attachments for your tractor.

    Hardly. They have no warranty on their products.

    King Kutter 72" Rear Blade broken. :-(

    1. Take cash from my farm budget stash and put it in my pocket. 2. Use three recovery straps all linked together and my '77 Chevy in 4wd to pull my little 4x8' trailer through 100+ feet of 3' deep snow until it reached the main driveway. 3. Shovel 3' snow off of the little trailer. 4. Hooked...

    1735M - Putting on snow chains isn't as easy as you would think.

    Just a picture of what I described in my last post, I had another picture, but my phone breathed it's last breath on planet earth uploading this image.

    I already replaced it. My local farm store had ~20 or so in stock.

    1735M - Putting on snow chains isn't as easy as you would think.

    We just need to get the chains on. Job done. Moving >500lb tires from side to side in blowing snow is not my first choice.

    1735M - Putting on snow chains isn't as easy as you would think.

    Two Harbor Freight jinky jacks, light from my Polaris Ranger, a spare card table and the job is done. My wife stopped by to bring me beer and moral support. 1. Break torque on the inner hub to rim bolts while on the ground. 2. Jack up 3. Remove the (6) nuts from the wheel hub and punch out...

    1735M - Putting on snow chains isn't as easy as you would think.

    I'm dreaming of a smooth concrete floor right now. What I got is a semi flat, ice and snow covered dirt lot. I'll manage. I always do. I'm going to get it off the ground and go for setting 2 or 3 in the book. I can't put it super wide or I won't be able to get around in the forest. We'll see how...
