I am borrowing a Ford 1710 tractor, and the hydraulic lift operates backwards. When the control lever is pushed down, the arms raise, and when pushed up, the arms lower. What would cause this?

The clutch on my New Holland TC 30 seems to have gone out, and I am thinking of trying to do the work of replacing it myself. Are there special tools needed to replace the clutch? I realize that replacing the clutch involves splitting the tractor. This is something I have not done before, but...

Thanks in advance for any help with this issue. I have a New Holland TC 30 that I think the clutch might have gone out on, though I am not sure. Recently, the cross shaft arm that comes out of the clutch housing cracked, and at the same time I became unable to get the tractor into gear due to...

There is an old 2 row corn planter for sale locally that I am looking at to possibly buy. I could not tell what make it is though. Wondering if from the picture someone here might be able to tell. It's got some red paint on it in places. The price is $250.00. Wondering also the pros and...

My New Holland TC 30 has been stalling lately. Sometimes it just dies, and other times it loses power and then recovers, or sort of surges. I have cleaned the fuel filter and bled the lines at the injectors. I am wondering if it could be the fuel injection pump, and how to test it. Any...

I picked up an Oliver Superior Grain Drill, and am trying to see if I can use it for planting a field. I took the drain plugs out of gear boxes to see what the oil looked like, and if it had oil. It seems to have grease in it. A bit of water came out of one of the gear box drain holes...

I ran over a rock and the part where the hydraulic filter mounts onto the transmission housing broke. A new one from New Holland costs $150.00. I was wondering if anyone here knows if there is a less expensive place to get the part. I looked for the part no. on the Messicks website, but it...

I got a post hole digger at an auction, and am trying to find a seal for the input shaft. I think the post hole digger is made by Five Star, and they are not in business any more. Wondering if someone here might have an idea of how I could get another seal for it. Am attaching photos of the...

I bought a post hole digger at an auction, though am not sure of the brand. It has part of a sticker on it, and I can read an "F", and I think an STA". I think it could be either a "Five Star" or a "Farm Star". Wondering if it looks familiar to anyone here. The seal where the driveshaft...

I have a chance to get a used Taarup disc mower, though am wondering if my 30 HP tractor will have enough power for it. The mower has 4 discs. The tractor has 25 HP at the PTO. Wondering if someone here has experience running a disc mower on a 30 HP tractor. Thank you in advance.

Sorry, posted this in the wrong forum. Will post in the attachments forum.

I have a New Holland TC 30 that is leaking oil from the PTO shaft. Trying to remove the shaft to replace the seal. Has anyone had trouble getting the shaft out of the housing? I watched a You Tube video on it, and it came right out in the video, but mine is not so easy. Posting a couple...

I purchased a used PZ drum mower at an auction. I believe it is a 165. Am attaching a photo of it. I was wondering if anyone on this forum might know more about this mower, or have a manual for it. I would like to get it functional this summer. It is missing the pto shaft. The blades have...

Hi. I am trying to repair an old disc I acquired. The disc axles go through two housings that seem as though they should have a bearing, though there is no bearing, just some sort of liner of unknown material. The housing and the liner are round, though the axle is square. Any...
