And a lot of faith in people posting on websites such as this. The info on the owner of the property is a matter of public record. The property owner *“has a history of multi-million-dollar philanthropy, a long track record of conservative political donations, a complex inventory of land...

The owner is NOT a liberal by any means. He has donated lots of $$s to conservative causes. Easy to find his name by googling key words associated with this thread. I don’t know his stand on hunting.

Can you provide a better picture of the entire tag (shown on your first pic)? That is the “tag next to your steering wheel“ that has the info you are looking for. You may need to do a pencil lead eching on a sheet of paper to be able to read all the info.

Or it could an issue with older operator manuals. The current operator manual states, “To prevent generator damage, do not load generator with an electric motor that exceeds the maximum capacity for the generator. See information below for maximum motor size. TX7 - 0.75 hp (0.56 kw) TX12 -...

Your 2 pole genny MUST spin at 3000 rpm to produce 50 htz. Your prime mover can of course be geared to operate at a different speed.

Unclear what your point is. This machine is NOT 6 pole. This machine is 4 pole, 1,800 rpm.

With 6 poles it has to run at 1200 rpm to generate 60 htz. The formula is rpm = (htz x 60 x 2) / number of poles (60 x 60 x 2) / 6 = 1,200

This thread is about PTO generators. PTO generators have input shaft gearing to get there required rpms from the PTOs 540 RPM regardless of being gas or diesel.

Motors are inductive reactance load. The current flow is not in sync with the voltage. This results in greater current flow than is expected by simply converting hp to Watts or Volt Amperes.

Typical clamp on current meters are just not capable of accurately measuring inrush current. The peak inrush is usually over before the meters start to detect it. Your measured running load is 22 Amps. Inrush is typically around 6 times that. 132 Amps amps at 240 V is far greater than the...

Do you know your well pumps nameplate ratings? A 2hp induction motor may well exceed the 13,000 kW surge rating on when starting.

Electric motors nameplates generally will show starting kVA (NEMA codes), some as high as nine times the running kVA. Use the starting kVA when determinig the correct electrical load requirements. If there isn’t enough power to start there isn’t enough to run.

It is hard to believe that water vapor coming from a cooling tower does not freeze during cold weather resulting in frozen precipitation be it either snow or sleet. However it is unlikely that such contribution to frozen precipitation is significant or evn measurable with respect to the water...

That is not steam. It’s water vapor. Steam does not exist at that temperature at anywhere near atmospheric pressure.

How does turning put wear and tear on your lift arns? And are you refering to the two lower arms on your 3pt hitch?

The same logic could also be applied to all the OEMs hourly service recommendations for fluids. Test it and change it based on the test results. Would recommend changing the filter(s) though. Of course now one has to consider how often does one test it vs following the manufacturers...

I have never seen auto adjusters on trailer brakes.

Finding small leaks is just not that difficult. Plugging is certainly quick and cheap but is more prone to leakage than an internal patch. Both plugging and patching are cheaper than tubing. Biggest problem with tubes are the relatively rapid deflation when punctured.

Sounds like eastern ME.

It would not be that hard to add wooden sections between the rafters and spacing them to give the height you are seeking. Then mount the fixtures to the spacers parralel to the rafters.

The tube certainly solved your immediate problem, the flat tire. I just find it curious that they needed a tube to seal a pinhole leak.

I would be curious as to the location of the “pinhole” leak. Was it leaking at the plug? I have seen a lot of tire plugs that leak. In most cases, a tire repaired with a plug cold have been better serviced with a patch inside the tire. Plugs often leak. Patches seldom do.

My guess is the starter solenoid.

The nuke plant can generate 24hrs/day, 365.25days/year. The solar plant just can’t do that. In my opinion, the biggest downside to both solar and wind generation is that there has to be real power plant that has to supply the power when the solar and wind plants can’t.

I’ve never used anything but local supplied fresh water from my garden hose for any engine I’ve owned. Never seen an auto dealer, auto service center, or tractor dealer use distilled water either as coolant. An internet search indicates using distilled water as coolant is either good, bad, or...

Thanks! So this percentage that is left this is not that unusual in your experience? I would expect some coollant to remain in the engine, but have never run into this high a percentage left.

Your location is listed as “Downeast.” That’s not very specific.

I am doing the 400 hr service on my Kubota. While doing this, I decided to also drain and refill the coolant. Per the owners manual the coolant capacity is 6.3 US qts. I drained the coolant using the radiator drain plug (with the radiator cap removed). This is what the service manual says to...

It’s so disappointing when one refers to their local dealer in a negative manner but their profile does not include their location. Talking bad about a dealer by name is not allowed but sharing your localion is allowed.

Figured it out and already ordered the part. It was the transmission to cooler line. Found a used one at Wengers. Shipping was more that the part, likely due to size and shape. The part depicted in the pics was a after market flexible hose. The OEM part is formed metal tubing. Local MF dealer...

Tow capability for a vehicle depend on much more than the tow vehicles make, model and engine. In most cases it is limited by the weight on the tongue and rear axle. With a 10.1 k trailer on a frame hitch you would be seeing at least 1,010 lbs and up to 1,515 lbs on that hitch. With a 5th...

Don’t have that info. Hoping a MF owner might know without having that info.

Deleted for lack of useful response.

Which one? Electric utilities, batteries, motors, wiring, transformers?

Can’t wait until we have cars that can fly at reasonable prices. They have been promised to be just around the corner since the early 1950s.

Being able to do it is not the same as being practical to do. There is a big difference between theoretical or experimental capabilty and being commercially viable. In the 1960s electricity from nuclear generation was going to be “to cheap to meter.”

The issue with hydrogen is how to generate it inexpensively enough to make it competative with other fuel sources.

Something like hydrogen? How about something made up of hydrogen and carbon atoms? Or maybe Mr. Fusion!

It’s pretty simple to separate fuel and water. Run the fuel thru an inline water fuel separator. You may have to drain the water from the separator several times. The size of the opening for the cap on the tank is relatively small compared to the tanks size.

Did you check the charging voltage prior to removing the cable connection? That reading would tell you much more about the alternators functioning.

The first statement is not wrong. The second statement was simply an attempt at a humerous dig of software coders.

I have had 3 tractors and one backhoe. Two of the tractors and the backhoe are large machines and are 2wd, the smaller tractor is 4wd. None are ever driven on a hard surface except when being parked under cover or changing an attachment. I seldom have had to engage the lockers on any of the...

It does NOT show up using the IOS app (that is no longer available). It must be a new previously undisclosed FEATURE of using the mobile browser.

Atmospheric pressure sensor. It is used to determine the density of the air and is an input to the engines fuel flow control.

Likely a bad sensor.

I am curious why most tractor dealers are unwilling to provide online pricing for their in stock inventory. They all require calling the store to even get ballpark pricing. Car dealers, appliance store, furniture stores, RV dealers, and pretty much every other dealer type of dealer provide...

My insurance comes in several different calibers.

Every tractor I have ever driven, when in its lowest gear range and lowest axle range, will spin its tires and NEVER stall out. Yes, you can make them stall, but only by either intentionally doing so or ignorantly doing so.

One could also say that torque is just a mathematical derivative of horsepower. Horsepower and torque are indeed directly related to each other and the engines speed. 5,252 rpm is the number of revolutions required to make the hp and torque equal numerical values (i.e., X hp and also X ft...

In my opinion, it seems the answer is obvious based on this thread. Most people do not understand torque and its relationship to hp and engine rpm. They are likely comfortable, even if not knowledgable, with hp. This is likely also true for the marketing folks at the various manufacturers...

Thats the difference between the performance of diesels and gas engines. Diesels when loaded drop in rpm but the available torque increases with that drop in rpm. Gas engines just drop in rpm and also drop the available torque.

I assume your JD Riding mower is gas powered and your Yanmar tractor is diesel powered. Their operating characteristics are significantly different. Look at the typical torque/hp vs speed curve for both gas and diesel engines. Diesel engines typically develop peak torque at low rpm that is...

Sorry you don’t get it. Properly geared the 110 hp engine could move the Case just fine, but likely not very fast. Torque can be mutipled via gearing. HP cannot be multiplied by gear ratios.

Interesting video but it does nothing to prove the claim that “torque gets more work done.”

Call them what you want, but they do popup out of nowhere. When they do, they compress the dialog in the thread and often cause the app to lock up or shutdown completely.

What do you call these?

If you are loking for opinions, you came to the right place.

Try Messicks. The have parts for Woods equipment.

Website with browser is just too unstable with all the ads popping up. Likely why the app is no longer supported. It would support all the ads.

My nearest Kubota dealer’s yard is overflowing. But it’s over an hours drive from me. What I find really strange is that their webpage shows they have almost no inventory. The same two used mechines have been showing as their entire inventory for months now. They must be relying on mostly...

Could you be more specific? It’s NOT clear what this link is pointing to that is under $200 and is what the OP is looking for. The axle shown at Friday Parts for $209, is not the right part no. for the OP’s machine.

We know we are not allowed to name the offending dealer but you could share your location.

Large nuclear plants are not cheap to build or operate and their is no long term solution to high level radwaste storage. In the U.S., spent nuclear fuel is typically stored on site. France and some other countries reprocess their spent fuel, which has its own risks and costs, but it doesn’t...

The bill stipulates “. . . with fair and reasonable terms and costs . . .” The costs will likely be similar to what their dealers pay, which isn’t cheep.

Sensors that monitor tire pressure and provide a display and alarm to the driver have been available for years now. Required on passenger vehicles and light trucks since 2007. Not sure why larger vehicles were not required.

I always found it interesting that those who are touting gold and silver as excellent investments are the ones selling the gold and silver.

I never said they have ALL the large military installations. But they do have a 3 of the top 5 (Fort Bragg, Fort Hood, and Fort Benning). They have 4 of the top 5 if one considers Fort Campbell in Kentucky being a southern state.

CA tops the list for the no. personnel on it’s bases. CO is not in the top 10 but is close. AZ and NM are farther down the list. Those living in the south do not regard CA, AZ, NM or CO as southern states regardless of their latitude.

The map shows miltary base locations but does not take into account the population at those bases. Seven of the top ten states based on per capita recruitment rates are southern states. Four out of five of the largest military bases are also located in southern states.

It has a lot to do with the location of military bases. Children of those in the military are more likely to join the military. Some will be less likely due to join the recent renaming of numerous military bases.

The FEDs don’t issue drivers licenses.

Curious. What is the tractor it’s mounted on?

Can’t be a cross between Green Acres, Petticoat Junction & Mayberry. They always had happy endings and only took 30 minutes, less the commercials.

The relationship between engine torque, rpm, and hp are well defined. If you know two of the three the other is easily calculated.

Torque to the wheels is what matters, not the torque provided by the engine. Torque provided by the engine can be, and is, multipled or divided by the transmission and rear end gear ratios. The HP provide by the engine cannot be increased. Torque determines what you can do. HP determines how...

What do you expect for $20? That one is pretty much the low end model.

Resistors in series with glow plugs to reduce the current makes little sense.

For family owning more than one or two vehicles, there was always a vehicle (or at least a plate) with the necessary ending digit.

Electric Cooperatives are be definition and an act of congress (1937 Electric Cooperative Corporation Act) “not-for-profit, and consumer-owned.”

Thanks for the info. I originally thought you were indicating 73% of ALL electric generation avaIlable in the USA was owned by the government. It was not clear you were talking about only hydroelectric.

Try Batteries Plus. They will replace the battery for about $100.

Only if you ignore the velocity head of the addtional pipe.

Perhaps that is why the app is no longer available for Apple devices.

The total number of units ever sold also affects availability of parts by OEM and aftermarket suppliers. Parts for rare tractors are also rare.

And yet the app is still not available for Apple devices.

Just read on Yahoo that Apple is clamping down on the apps available on its App Store, potentially cutting off disruptive technology in the process. Not sure if this is related to why the TBN app is no longer available on the Apple devises.

I have tractor theft insurance of several different calibers.

I would hate to have to transport my tractor 300 miles very often no matter what the mode of transportation. I recognize that in Texas (and other large western states) that driving 100 miles one way just to go out to diner is not that rare.

Don’t you mean one appliance per flue? Multiple flues in a chimney are common place. I have one chimney with three flues serving two fireplaces and one wood stove.

Lots of opinions here. And that is my opinion.

Thread the cables thru some metal piping. It will “stiffen” the connections and prevent the cables from becoming entangled with the wheels. Alternatively, purchase a couple of angle irons and use them the connect to the railroad iron.

The “Disappeared/Reapeared” discussion referred to by the OP is still on this site and is shown as having been started by the OP.

Not really, unless you don’t count the cost of the trailer. Unless there is a need for frequent transportation, owning a trailer just for that purpose is not very cost effective. Tractors of this size are easily transported on a rollback tow truck for far less than the cost of a trailer and tow...

Lots of opinions here. Some may be right, some likely, not so. A lawyer specializing in this area is the best source if expertise.

I have never seen any implements at dealers that are not sitting outside in the weather unless they are being worked on or attached to tractors that are being worked on.

A will means nothing as long as his heart is still beating. Talk to a lawyer who specializes in senior issues.

I have never seen a tractor or implements under cover at a dealership unless it is actually being worked on.

I am not an attorney, but am pretty sure one cannot get a power of attorney if the grantor is not mentally competent. Guardianship and Conservatorship would likely be required and are more difficult and expensive to get.

The info on Tractor data IS consistent with the lift capacity stated in the operators manuals for both the B2650 and the L3901. FYI, my L3240 is rated for 2650 lbs at 24 inches.

Try Rhinohide Canopies.

Get a backhoe. Take care of the problem and then bury the problem.

I have never ever seen any mechanic working in a garage, auto dealership, or tire shop use a torque wrench on lug nuts.

More so in late summer and early fall.

Only until you unplug it.

Unlike Onstar and GPS mapping, most of these features don’t require internet access. Likely, someone will sell the capability for a plug in hardware bypass in lieu of the need for a subscription.

Depends on which bucket do you have on that loader. https://tractortechspecs.com/jd_220r_loader.html

Interesting insight into EVs actually towing something. https://ijr.com/journalists-tow-camper-behind-electric-truck-end-stunning-failure/

No problem with my Kubota HST. Clutch on left, brakes on right. HST also on right just like the accelerator pedal. Haven’t driven a manual trans on a truck or car for many years, but my first 3 cars had a manuals trans back in the 60s.

A metallurgical analysis of the material in the OPs pic of the rail could determine what it actually is (rust, debris, and/or bugs) vs what it looks like.

In 1985 I was stopped in Wyoming having been clocked doing 83 MPH. It was about 6:30 in the morning on a straight and level interstate highway and there was no other traffic on the road. The fine was $5. It never showed up at my home states highway dept.

Pulling the trailer should not be a problem if you are not in a hurry. Braking might be though. Be sure to be in 4 wd. I would also install a trailer brake controller on the tractor. Always nice to have the towed vehicle assist with braking.

Cows will eat kudzo too. Not as crazy about it as goats but they will get the job done.

The Deere MSL option can still be used for normal loader work. The hydraulic cylinders can still curl the bucket. Unless manually curling the bucket, the option keeps the bucket in it’s same relative position when being raised or lowered. Since I don’t do a lot of pallet work I have no use for...

That was the reason for my question to the OP. Not a lot of math involved. It’s basically two parallelograms working in concert on each side.

Are you thinking something like the Deere Mechanical Self-Leveling (MSL) Loader option?

My locale ACE hardware store will replace ratchets without question. The replacement may not be identical since tool design or construction may have changed.

There are many opinions and recommendations regarding dealing with aluminum wiring most of them conflict with each other. I am aware of no where that recommends annual maintenance.

Some overzealous conspiracy theorists on board here.

Civil Asset Forfeiture applies to much more than just cash (e.g., cars, truck, boats, homes, land, buildings, etc.). If you worry about it, then you should also worry about losing more than just cash.

Conversely, a 1000 cfm supplied at 0.01 psig won’t budge that doll car wheel either. Supplied pressure and volume are not independent of each other. All else being equal, increased flow volume will result from increased pressure and increased pressure results in greater volume.

The air pressure supplied to the impact tool has a significant affect on its cabability. Likely the tire dealers impact tool was operating at greater pressure.

Also included Mopars from the 50s and 60s. Never worked on any older than that but have heard Chrysler started this in the 30s.

The rules, whatever they are, should be VERY VISIBLE. There are what appears to be a set of rules that one agrees to to be able to join this forum and another set of rules that are in a post by Mohammid. Finding all the “rules” is not easy.

The additional weight of the diesel engine eats up most of the payload gain of the 2500 over ther 1500. If one need the diesel to tow heavy loads, should consider bumping up to the 3500.

In general, fuses and circuit breakers are sized to protect the circuit (i.e, the wiring). They are typically not sized to prevent individual component overheating.

Just checked. The Amazon price of $69.96 is for only ONE gallon.

Nope. That price from a local dealer is pretty average. They buy it by the truckload. It’s similar to several other mail order tractor supply houses, but the freight on a few gallons via UPS, Fed Ex or other shippers will eat you alive. Messicks has 5 gals for about $113 but the freight to my...

You could post the non-responsive dealers name or at least its location. Would warn others not to do business with them. I just reviewed the TBN forum rules and could find nothing prohibiting posting such info.

In most U.S. states going thru the scales (i.e., weigh stations) is only required for commercial vehicles.

“Load levelers” is an imprecise term covering various products including but not limited to WD hitches. WD hitches are a specific set of products that transfer hitch load from the rear axle, rear suspension and rear tires of the tow vehicle. One should not be confused with the other.

Proper use of weight distribution hitches can significantly increase the towing capability of most 1500 or 150 tow vehicles by reducing the load...
