I asked this question over at "Owning/Operating" but got no hits. Hope I have better luck here.
The attached photo is of my transmission sight gauge and I'm trying to determine if the trans is overfilled or low. This is a TYM T1003 (100hp) and there is no dip stick. I don't remember if...
The attached photo is of my transmission sight gauge and I'm trying to determine if it's overfilled or is low. I don't remember if there's an interior tube within the square acrylic outer tube (or case) or if the golden trans fluid is supposed to fill the entire square case. I had a cylinder...
TYM 2015 T1003C (100hp) tractor. Been running this machine since 2016 and never had this warning light (the red, downward facing arrow) come on until last week. I was bush hogging acres of tall, thick weeds with white, fluffy seed heads. This white fluff clogged my hood air inlets and...
I have a 2015 T1003 TYM and I'm posting here as well as it's the identical machine to Mahindra's model of the same year. Anyway, does anyone happen to know the size of the zerks for the loader? Due to their recessed location in the loader arms, I snapped off a few nipples attempting to remove...
Anyone happen to know the size of the zerks for the T1003 loader (LT900)? Due to their recessed location in the loader arms, I snapped off a few while greasing this past weekend. I figured they were a standard size but that doesn't appear the case. The stock zerks fit a 10mm socket but...
I've got a 100hp, (9K lbs) filled rear tires tractor pulling a Bush Hog 2215, 15' batwing. For now I'm mowing about 6 acres of former horse pasture on a slope that varies from 5% to 20-30%. As I'm a fair chicken on slopes, I usually run straight up and down on the steepest sections, but that...
As (bad) luck would have it, I take out my TYM T1003 today to knock down the crusty snow/sleet/freezing rain mess we got here in the northeast this weekend and found out my cab has no heat. Machine's a little over two years old with 405 hours on the engine. Heater worked fine last winter but...
Got a new, Chinese-made, 7.5' offset flail mower that is missing a few parts and wonder if anyone can help steer me in the right direction to find them in the U.S. Some of what's missing on this HD mower I can source from 3rd party manufacturers/distributors here in the U.S. ie. hydraulic...
I've got a new Chinese made, heavy duty 86" articulating flail mower that sheared a shear pin when I hit a (hidden by tall weeds) deteriorated round bale. The hammers stopped dead and I saw billows of white smoke coming from the gear box/belts area. At first I thought I destroyed the gear box...
I've got a 2015 TYM T1003C that will no longer curl and has limited lift. This occurred after a day of grapple work lifting and moving heavy rocks. After disconnecting the grapple I noticed the problem. There are no leaks or busted hoses but I did notice a disconnected hose at the valve that...
More out of curiosity than a pressing need is to know what type of rear remotes my machine (2015 TYM T1003C) came with. I have three remotes, #1 and #2 are spring-loaded forward and back and spring to center (neutral?) #3 is my mystery and I've not been sure it was operating correctly. The #3...
Got a TYM T1003C and would like to replace the locking cap with a generic non-locking cap. My online searches only come up with non-threaded flat caps for older machines. Stock cap is fine but annoying when having to retrieve the key just to refuel. Any thoughts? Thanks!
For all you tall (over 6'1" plus) Toolcat D-model vets, how well do your legs fit? I'm considering a purchase, am 6'2" (a more legs then torso 6'2") and have found the machine cramped when sitting in the driver's position. Very disappointing given the size of the machine compared to smaller...
Was perusing John Deere's latest mid-Ag/Row crop machine offerings (100-115 pto hp) and noticed they're no longer offering the front 3pt/pto option as a field installed (or factory) option. Their sales/configuration site mentions this with a note to contact LaForge directly if anyone is...
Narrowed down my choice for a good, strong utility machine to an M59... the Leatherman of tractors. Potential problem, I'm 6'2" and often have legroom issues when sitting in vehicles and I haven't been able to find one to sit in. I've got some arthritis in the hip which doesn't enable me to...
Hello from New England. I'm considering buying a used cabover chasis truck rated at 33K GVWR for private use and I don't plan to tow trailers with it. Am I correct in assuming I still need a CDL? If so, would the CDL driving test be taken in this truck and the license restricted to "no...
Having a friendly argument with a buddy as to which machine is the most efficient and easy to use to cut brush to 2", a rear mounted articulating boom mower on a tractor or a flail or rotary mower on a mini-excavator, both 6 ton? The size of both will preclude mulching tree tops. No Denis...
Started looking at UTV's for my farm and am becoming initially alarmed that I may not fit comfortably in them. I'm 215# and 6'2" with most of the length in my legs. :) I've tried sitting in two brands (Polaris and Husqvarna) and legs are too long for them. I'm not looking for automobile...
For haywork on hilly terrain using mower-Kuhn accumulator combo, I'm looking at new Massey 6475, Kubota M135X and JD6140 in that order. The 'bota appears the best value for the money by far, but the MF has desirable options that the others don't offer (ie. front 3pt/PTO) and a super beefy front...
