    Oil & Fuel  KAMA Oil & Fuel Filters

    When I bought my 2005 KAMA 354X (Engine Model JDTY3951T-S, Engine #04-H0407300) the dealer included extra oil and gas filters that he had labeled with the "Wix" filter equivalent numbers. He mislabeled these filters so when I recently went to AutoZone for Wix filters the numbers he gave me did...

    KAMA 354X Maintenance

    I have a KAMA 354X 3 cylinder diesel tractor that I bought in March of 2005. It has less than 10 hours of use since I bought it. How often and how long should this tractor be run to keep it in good working condition?

    Hydraulic Pump Destruction

    I have read several posts in the past about the internal hydraulic pump being destroyed on various Chinese tractors when you have a FEL with quick disconnect fittings. It seems that if either quick disconnect fitting comes loose the pump will deadhead and blow the pump because the pressure...

    Decompression Lever

    I have noticed the decompression lever on my KAMA 354 is almost impossible to use due to the small knob. If my memory serves me correctly, there was a post about making a lever to replace the knob but I can't find it in this forum. Anyone have a picture or instructions about installing this...

    Kama 354C Injector Pump

    I would like to drain the injector pump and replace the Chinese lube, but I can't locate the drain plug. Can anyone tell me where it is? Also, what type of lube should I put in the pump? My manual is written in Chinenglish so it is no help "thusly". Thanks

    Kama 354X Fluids

    I took advantage of a recent warm spell to replace the original Chinese gear lubes in the four wheel drive and the transmission case. The fluid I drained from the front axle seemed to be a mix of some type of lube and a whitish looking gunk. When I went to drain the transmission the fluid...

    Ferguson Hydraulics

    I have a Ferguson TO-30. The hydraulics will raise a bushhog or a grader blade very quickly. When I try to lower the implement, as soon as the lowering lever is moved an inch or two from the uppermost position, the implement goes all the way down. Also, if I have the implement in the transport...

    Ferguson TO-30 Governor

    Anyone have any tips about troubleshooting a problem with a TO-30 governor? Less than 500 tractor hours ago I replaced the governor assembly with a Novi ball type governor. All has been fine until today, when my neighbor borrowed the tractor to do some bushhogging. After about 30 minutes the...

    Kama 354X

    When I bought my KAMA 354X the dealer told me to use 10W40 oil in the crankcase. I have been trying to find a diesel rated 10W40 (Wal-Mart, TSC, NAPA, AutoZone), but no one seems to carry a diesel rated 10W40. They all point to straight 30wt oil as the only oil they they have, except for...

    Seldom used KAMA

    My KAMA is the first diesel powered machine I have ever owned. Got it to replace a TO-30 (gas). This tractor will not see much use other than once a year bushhogging and snow removal, probably less than 30-40 hrs/year. I have heard that diesel fuel will degrade over time and will plug up the...

    Replacing Chinese Fluids

    I have a new KAMA 354 with a FEL. I have read that the Chinese fluids are junk and should be replaced. Where is the best place to buy hydraulic and gear lubes? I also would like to modify the exhaust to use a flapper type cover, but I can't seem to find either the fluids or the flapper anywhere...

    ROPS Modification

    Thanks to all who replied to my original post. Many replies but no real help in solving my problem. I can't believe that there are so many people concerned with liability issues than there are those who would help me to "Get 'er Done". My tractor, my life. Just want the KAMA to fit in the garage.

    ROPS Modification

    I recently bought a Kama TS354C with an AccuTech FEL. This tractor came with a fixed ROPS that is 4 or 5 inches too tall to clear my 7 foot garage door. Is there any way to convert a fixed height ROPS to a folding ROPS, or would it be easier to have a welding shop cut the 4 or 5 inches out of...

    China Best Tractors

    Does anyone have any experience in ordering a tractor from this firm? They gave me what seems to be good price for a tractor + FEL. I'm just looking to buy one for my personal use. Any help greatly appreciated.
