When I log in with the old 3510 (bought new) SR#, I get a PDF of owner manual. When the 8560 SR# is typed in, it says to see dealer. Is this due to the fact that I did not purchase it new or there is a recall of some sort ??? In all fairness to dealer, he does not have any idea of what is...

The 5500 4WD started leaking fluid from the top of the steering column. It continued to leak until the fluid level got low, but not too low. If I fill it to full, it will pump it out of the top of the steering column. There is a bushing in the top of the column but I cant get a part # for just...

My 5500 4WD has developed a hydraulic leak at the top of the steering column. It takes a little while to start but it is a steady drip. I looked online at a parts breakdown, there is no seal at top of column, so it must be in the lower unit. Any suggestions?? Also, the idle seems too high...

Has anyone used a different brand bucket on their 509 or 511 Backhoe? I need a 12" bucket for a LONG waterline install and a new Bradco is over 1k. Wondering if a similar size bucket would work, aware that connection may have to be modified. Just looking for a less costly solution :confused3:

Finally got the new 509 repaired after the Boom would stay up after the first hour of work. I dug up a flashboard riser that had silted up and after I tried to move to the opposite side, noticed the boom was dragging the ground. When lifted, it would not stay up, just straight to the ground...

Looking at a MF 43 Grain drill- Any one ever owned, operated or have input on parts availability or general comments? :confused: It looks fair and needs minor repair. It has defiantly been working, but seems to have some life left if not handled too rough. Thanks

I have a OLD Lincoln welder, has a crank to adjust amps. It will weld bigger stuff than I need but it is getting old like me and one day it will cease to operate.

My mule 4WD transport seems to have plenty of power, but it will not perform in mud! I use it for Duck Hunting in the MS Delta in mostly Agriculture fields, on the levees and tractor turnrows. On hard ground it has no problem but in the real muddy places it seems to just spin the wheels and...

With all the post about the "Cheap New Tires" that all trailer builders are putting on equipment, why not buy good LT 10 Ply yourself and have them mounted/balances on the new rims at your expense? I am sure a trailer dealer would deduct at least the cost of a new spare ($125) X 4 and sell you...
