Ran into a problem the other day while my son was mowing the field. Said he heard a snap and then the mower would not raise and the connecting rod was bent up and dragging on the ground. As you can see from the attachment, the connecting rod pulled through the mower lift arm bracket (Note the...

A good friend with a small farm was out on his tractor the other day trying to round up his small flock of sheep in a pasture. Going at a fairly fast pace to keep up with the critters he forgot about the bucket off a front end loader that he had left in the field in the spring. He ran into the...

I know I have seen it somewhere but like many things it escapes me for now where it was. I have a 72 inch MMM on my 2710 and have taken the blades off for sharpening and deck cleanout and remember reading somewhere about the placement of the blades when re-assembling. I have the work shop manual...

Watching the news coverage of the disaster in the USA I find any problems that I have pale in comparison. I sit high enough on a hill to be able to see the city and although they were small, I could still recognize the outlines of the twin towers on a clear day. Yesterday they were there in the...

Hi Guys and gals....hope someone can help me with this. I was going to start to put some lights on my 2710 and went to look for the power lead that was supposed to be under the seat. I looked high and low, under the seat on top of the rear end under the tool box and came away with nothing. Can't...

Found a good source for tractor related parts and farm implements. Agri-Supply 1-800-345-0169 or http://www.agri-supply.com. I was in the market for a drawbar for the 3pt and shopped my local dealers. All were around $35 to $45 for the same thing that I got from Agri-Supply for $14 and change...

Had the good fortune of finding a plastic (yellow in color) 6 gallon diesel fuel can for a reasonable price. LOWES has them for $9.88 with a spout and block off disc. For many of us 2 of these cans will be sufficient as they are easy to fill and transport and we would always be assured of fresh...

While doing my 50 hr service, I pulled the 72 in mower deck to power wash the underside. After removing some of the stuck on grass I found large (3 inch or better) pieces of orange paint that had peeled off. This was not an abrasion or by being hit by rocks or dirt. It actually peeled off as if...

Just broke 50 hours on my 2710 and performed the service myself. The following are some tips that may help someone else doing the service. I bought a 15 quart oil drain pan from my local auto zone store and the extra capacity came in handy on the transmission oil. I started with the engine...

I have for many years used a hand pumped grease gun for any greasing that I had to do on my equipment. This year for fathers day, my son gave me a Sears air powered grease gun and what a difference in getting the job done. It loads bulk or a cartridge and has a 16 inch flex adapter to get into...

After the third inch of rain fell here today, I got cabin fever and went out to do some shopping. Wound up at a Auto Zone store and was browsing through when I came upon a high intensity back up bulb (50 Watts). I thought maybe this would be a good replacement for the 23 watt headlamps in the...
