Have a DK5310SE I bought in spring 2022. Since new I’ve always noticed an irregular chirping sound of sorts. Doesn’t always happen. Sometimes will happen a lot. Sometimes not as much. Sometimes it’ll happen right at startup at idle and other times only when I run the rpms up to go do work. The...

I have a brand new Kioti DK5310SE tractor I just bought this year. I also have a Woods TSG50 stump grinder. I've had two incidents now where I was about two hours into stump grinding, and upon repositioning the tractor and lifting my 3 point hitch, I've blown out an oring on the tractor's rear...

Hi All, So I'm the proud owner if a brand new DK5310SE. I'll start off that I absolutely love the machine and did a lot of reading into many brands before I sold my old Massey Ferguson and upgraded. However, I'm rather frustrated at the moment. The machine has 16.5 hours in almost 3 months...

Hi All. Currently looking to upgrade my Massey 1240 to something newer with more capability and capacity. I've been looking at many brands: Massey, Kubota, Yanmar, John Deere, and Kioti. I must say I was very impressed with the specs on these machines. I'm ready to make a move but I can't...

Hi, I recently purchased a John Deere X540 about a year ago. It's in fantastic shape but I always thought the full throttle engine speed "sounded" a little on the slow side. I'm also finding my recent snowblower addition (48" Bercomac Northeast) only blows about 35', and believe this is a...

Hi, I've tried doing several searches across the internet as well as referring to my service manual. I'm trying to determine the rated speed of the PTO output shaft on the transmission for the GR2100. This model is shaft drive. I see there is a driveshaft from the engine back to the...

I've been posting on here a lot lately. I just bought a used X500 earlier this year that was a 2007 model but in great shape with only 225 hours on it. I like many noticed that the fuel gauge didn't work and always read empty with the machine on. From what I've gathered on the forums it seems...

All, Like many I've seen on the forums, I too hated the low power stock headlights on the John Deere X500 tractors. I searched these forums for an LED replacement solution with higher lumens but didn't find much. I did however figure out a relatively easy solution and wanted to share what I...

I'm struggling to find whether I have an overcharge issue on my John Deere X540. Would someone mind taking the following voltage measurements with a multimeter? Engine off (I'm measuring 12.58V) Engine running at idle, no accessories on (I'm measuring 15.3-15.5V) Engine running full...

Hi all, I have a 2009 John Deere X540 that I picked up used earlier this year. The machine is in great shape, I'm the second owner, and it only has 250 hours, and I love it. I've slowly been performing all my maintenance on the tractor and one of the last things I did was check the battery...

Looking to buy a used John Deere 47" snowblower that fits the X530, X534, X540 and X590. This is a belt driven unit. Call Dave at 401-369-0720 or reply to this ad. Thanks.

So I've been looking around for an older Simplicity Legacy for the purpose of mowing and snowblowing on my property. I came across a 1998 Simplicity Legacy with the 25hp Kohler Command, 60" deck, and rear wheel weights. Under 600 hours and only $2,000. Seems like a really great deal. I've...

I'm looking for some opinions here. I have a 2007 Kubota GR2100 w/the D782 diesel engine, 54" mid mount mower, and 47" snowblower. I bought it as the 2nd owner in 2011 at 180 hours, great deal at $5,100 from someone moving across country and had to let it go. I also bought the snowblower new...

Has anyone ever found a grease joint that is very difficult to take grease, but is not plugged? I have a 1997 Massey Ferguson 1240 compact tractor. On the undercarriage there is grease fitting on each of the (2) clutch linkage pivots, and (2) brake linkage pivots. The grease joint is simply a...

First the background. I have a Massey Ferguson 1240 compact tractor and I'm having some fuel filter issues. The inlet fuel line goes into the filter head with a metal 90 degree fitting. The last time I changed the filter I noticed this inlet fitting was able to rotate. When I put it all back...

Hi All, I am a newer owner to a 1997 Massey Ferguson 1240 compact tractor. I recently picked up the shop manuals, and when I was reading through them I came to a section that discussed adjusting the front axle float. I did some searches for axle float on the forums but didn't find anything. I...

I own a MF 1240 and my seat is toast. The cushion has been ripped for awhile. I've been getting by with duct tape. But recently one of the brackets on the underside of the seat broke off due to rust at the welds. I need a new seat but the dealer wants $400 for it and that's just way too much...
