All the compactors I've seen (not that many) have the ability to spray water in front of the rollers.

My old 55 gal diesel drum is getting rusty and I scored a new 55 gal barrel that had engine oil in it. I've drained as much as I can from the barrel but there is still a little in it. Do I need to waste diesel to finish cleaning it out or will less than a quart of oil bother the next 50 gallons?

If you want to do "down" banks of greater than 15 degrees and not have one tire over the bank, you really need one that has the gearbox on the outboard of the belts rather than the inboard AND when swung completely to the right it should clear your tires. Otherwise you won't be able to get the...

You have 2 pumps on your L4060HST. One for your Power steering and one for your Implements.The manufacturer adds them together to give you give you "Total Hydraulic Flow" of 14.1 GPM. Considerably less than the 21 GPM you mentioned. In addition, you are only going to get the flow from the...

I'm going to go out on a limb BUT have you mic'd the old bearing housing? #1 in the drawing below looks more like the bearing I have on my Mott 72.

As you can see the bearing sticking out on the outboard side is half the problem. You might mic the thickness of the housing to see if that is the other half of the problem. The real issue is the sheave. If it sticks that far out it won't line up with the drive sheave. If this was my problem...

I know how it is "supposed" to work. Just want to hear how it actually works. What is this? Is it a PTO hanger?

Less power in both the engine and at the PTO than the MX BUT ... it has a warranty.

The deal was .... it had a dent on the hood from the previous owner dropping a bucket load of logs when he lifted it too high. Dealer kept lowering the price but still couldn't sell a dented hood. I'm not fussy about those kinds of things so I made him a deal. It already had the 3rd function...

I stand corrected:shocked:

I would have left the bent blades on until I found all of the rocks and wire.:2cents: Welcome to the Flail Nation:drink:

Does anyone who has a rotating chute on a 3PH chipper similar to the WoodMaxx WM-8, i.e. - any chipper that feeds directly into the flywheel @ 90°, have a problem with the chute clogging? If so, what do you think the issue is? Mine clogs when I feed anything over 3". I just am looking to see...

The Lowes link is to "Dual Wall' Pipe which is smooth on the inside. The same pipe I used for my culvert. You will also need 2 couplings: Shop ADS 13-in Dia Corrugated Coupling Fitting at Lowes.com

I do this all the time after I pull the rock out of the ground with my subsoiler: Hook rock with chain You can either set it down and reset the chain for carrying or Drop it into the bucket

There is a grapple thread that came up just today with a lot of good info especially about what kind of jaws you want for the work you need it for. I'm in the process of getting one and needed to get some help on the decision. I decided on one like this: But read the thread and make up your...

The 3 remotes were $2,400 which included one float. I had read your thread on the DIY remotes and decided I needed the remotes on arrival and I'm just not clever enough to get the job done in short order ... but I was tempted. I chose the MX over an '04 L5030 on the west coast with 354 Hrs...

This is how I did my hose runs and it works pretty good:

"Cuts very well as is" is subjective and depends on the persons point of view. You may be able to replace those chain link sets with two longer knives like this:

Farm-Helper is one of the better manufacturing companies in china. I'm pretty sure Betst Co and Value leader are related and import these flails directly. If you peruse the site you will see that they have all the consumable and breakable parts for sale. Admins - I am not employed by or related...

From the pic the belt looks like it is in line with both sheaves. It would appear just the tensioner is slightly off. This pic is strait on to the belt so the wall to the left is at an oblique to the viewer BUT it appears that the wall is bowed away from the belt. The tensioner is attached to...

1st - It looks like you have at least one broken blade just in the picture. 2nd - You can turn the blades around. The cutting edge is rounded so you will get a better cut and have sharper blades by just doing a 180. You have cotter pins so the job would take you about 3 hours. FYI - get some...

There are lots of ways to lay your pipe but the simplest is to get the pipe layer attachment. Run your subsoiler with the pipe attachment in place both ways to ensure no obstructions in your path. Get a buddy to help feed the pipe and have at it. Doing the steps above my friend and I...

You have a Utility Model 72 Mott with 92 Hangar stations and 184 blades. The knives should be attached with clevis & cotter pins not bolts. Although not easy to change they are much easier than the bolt/nut combo. If you have the flail at working height (like on a bench) you can change all the...

Just so we are all reading off the same page, here are the particulars of the original patent:

Does anyone have a part number for a good Kevlar replacement belt for the 8" Jimna chipper?

Richard - Let's bury the hatchet and let me identify at least one of the differences between your 917 and my Mott. The the "throat" of the flail is the space between the lift arm attachment points and the ground. My Mott has an open throat - there is nothing in front of the blades below the...

This looks like your blades and it does have only one cutting edge. If in fact the blades are installed backwards then you certainly should be able to turn them around. However, I would check visually like Island suggested to insure your rotor is turning the way you think it is.

I believe the lower links (lift arms) he is talking about are the vertical arms that attach the lower lift arms to the upper lift arms. Extending those will allow for the lower arms to move lower but they will not raise as high as before. By keeping the top link constant and allowing the arms...

1. Not really .... I'm retired and I can change out all 92 stations in a little over 3 hours. 2. No ... I bought a wet well before changing the blades. I found that in my use I'd need a forge & anvil to reshape the blades first. I did sort out some (but not many) candidates to use as spares...

Get a piece of old conveyor belt and bolt it on. They also sell a "rubber" flap for it. That is what mine came with but I still get chaff on the top because my roller is set high.

I have had an original Mott 72 for 3 years. I don't use it much now but when I bought this place (10Ac) it had guinea grass and Hilo grass taller than me (6'). It took a couple of passes to knock it all down with the used blades that came with it. I "found" lava rocks, stumps, saplings, old...

Is it a Simms pump on the right side of the engine? If so, there is at least one hex cap screw ... Bleed your filter first, loosen the cap screw on the injector pump a little then use the hand toggle on the bottom of the fuel pump to pump fuel to the injector pump.

Here you go. It is built to hold up to 1,200 lbs

This is a "Utility" Loader. Check the attached list of applicable tractors. You will see that the correct loader for the Major line is the Heavy Duty Loader. You may have a lot of difficulty adapting it as it is most likely too narrow.

The Superior Loader came with a front mount/crank powered pump. You need to make sure you get ALL of the parts necessary to mount and run the loader. That would include the front brush guard which is the mounting point for the pump. The brush guard is an integral part of the frame as it keeps...

When we were pouring the floor for the barn, my nephew suggested we leave a hole for the PHD. So we put a Home Depot bucket down where my implements were to be stored before the pour and ba da bing PHD stand. That's a 9" auger.

I bought a well used Burch SS subsoiler last year. It looks and works like a Fred Cain but is much beefier. It is bolted to a CAT I drawbar with a CAT II toplink hole. The first time I hooked it up it dove right down to within a couple of inches of the drawbar (about 20") and did just what it's...

I have an old JD 350 Sickle I want to dismantle to ship overseas. I've got the blade bar off and have removed the 4 bolts that seem to be the all that holds it on. However, the bar won't rotate about the pin in the middle and I can't seem to get it to pop loose. It will "work" on the pin but it...

I'm in the market for a sickle mower but I've read that you need to attache some chains to the drawbar for it to operate properly. Problem is ... My tractor doesn't have a drawbar - see attached. :( Is there a way I could hook up a sickle mower without the drawbar. I have my fingers crossed...

Hi, I've been reading and learning from this forum for a few months but hadn't bother signing up until I really needed to ask a question. :thumbsup:
