    Controlling implement working depth

    Ok, so if I understood you right, lever can, actually, control the depth. That. pretty much, was my question. Thing about ripper is, because of the C-shaped shanks, it needs to be dropped all the way down to the ground and THEN shanks go full depth in, as they are angled at about 45 degrees into...

    Controlling implement working depth

    I have 3015 series Branson and, am pretty sure, implement 3 point height control in the rear is about the same across most tractors. Lever control, up/down. So here's my question. I have Fred Kain ripper/scarifier and am trying to figure out, how to, possibly control how deep it goes in with...

    How to engage Branson cruise

    Ah, ok. I don't really use tractor now, that it's January, but it's in low 40s and I can pull it out tomorrow and experiment. That CC ticks me off. Thanks

    How to engage Branson cruise

    Says, what does not work. Refers to page 4-7 and page 4-7 has picture of instrument cluster. DONE. I just fingered through every page in manual again, and it does not even have CC reference.

    How to engage Branson cruise

    Thank you. I'll try. So get to whatever speed, tap button for a brief moment, let go of the pedal. I'll. also, check if there's any adjustment to that magnet.

    How to engage Branson cruise

    I have 35hp Branson. Not even year old. I can't figure how to engage cruise. Silly it may sound. Just pressing cruise green button usually drops speed to slow creep. I need to lock it at about 6 mph for mowing. I had it done once and never managed to repeat again. Do I just tap it, or press...

    NEW 3015 oil leak

    See, I am not the only one who thinks so. I am VERY nice to people. I accomplished many things, by being nice to CSRs on the phone. My wife hates me for that, as I am sweetness and kindness on the phone. Or, in emails. That "you don't know what you talking about" was about #6 email in chain of...

    NEW 3015 oil leak

    I have another dealer that welcomed me right away, if it makes you feel better. Like it or not, simple fluid level check before sale is dealer duty. I have VERY good people skill and am proud of knowing that and am well aware that, dealer, willing to work with his customers and build...

    NEW 3015 oil leak

    Question. Picture #4 in my post #24. Yellow coupling. It leaks oil quite well. Can I safely remove the piece and put oil resistant tape onto the threads? Safely as in - it's hydraulic line, I'd not want something heavily pressurized to blow oil all over garage.

    NEW 3015 oil leak

    I dropped loader down to the floor and curled scoop up. ALL hydraulic cylinders are fully retracted. Only extra fluid is in hoses. That said, it took almost a gallon of hydraulic oil, to rich full mark on DS. Confident, transmission was under filled. Front axle took about a liter of gear oil...

    NEW 3015 oil leak

    OK, so here's new findings. Front axle has no oil on dipstick. I checked several times - DS is bone dry and I DO KNOW how to check level on DS. Transmission does have some fluid in it, just not all the way up to the DS. Why would I be raising tractor front, if it's level? Posting pics of where...

    NEW 3015 oil leak

    No sight glass. Just like the picture above, with orange umbrella handle.

    What implement best for turf grading with compact tractor?

    Gotcha. Did you use grading blade as blade though? Facing forward, as it should?

    NEW 3015 oil leak

    Excellent, thank you. Well, if loader has no major bearing on TF level, then I surely do not have enough of it. DS was bone dry. And I checked loader yesterday, sitting outside. All hydraulic cylinders have pistons fully recessed. I do not believe there is much TF left in them, considering 37L...

    NEW 3015 oil leak

    Yep. Rubbery handle does not help a bit and there's no space to get fingers between the plug and that meatl edge right next to it. But, that's not my question WHAT IS THE PROPER WAY TO CHECK TF LEVEL?
