    MF 60 H backhoe runs, will not move

    I owned a 1981 MF 60 hoe in the past. I'm assuming yours is a little newer, here's a picture of the one I had. It didn't have to many electronics on it, especially "solenoids" . I also never heard of an "override" button. Usually the large red button you described is a safety feature to "kill'...

    1996 cat 426b hydraulic pump vibration issue. (With video)

    You can see from this frame I took, the pulley on the pump is coming away from the other pulley. Look at the difference in spaces. Check for loose or broken bolts and nuts.

    Agco tractor keeps burning up fuel shutoff soleniod

    Did this tractor ever run right, or did you purchase it this way. Here's my 2 cents,, dual coil solenoids come in a couple of varieties, some are internally controlled circuits to prevent both coils from staying on at the same time for too long, and overheat etc. And some are "externally"...

    The "spring" thingy was already there when I bought the machine, but I did modify it with the triangle plate and added a chain, The spring shock was welded to the frame also and I ground it off and made the stopper plate, I didn't like the angle of the frame before. Heres a pic of what it looked...

    Snow Equipment Owning/Operating Using a pickup snow blade for my Mahindra

    Here's mine with a chain supported plow, if you look in the circle, when I angle the plow "down", the cross pin connects with the plate and the spring puts tension on the plow for down pressure.

    How well do shelter logic hold up in heavy snow areas?

    Here they are...You can see the addition I added at the back of it. I have a wood stove in the addition, this is my second tarp in 5 years, I also added the second frame of the new one inside "doubling" it's strength. The frame is now 2 feet apart as opposed to 4 originally.

    Increasing lift capacity 3pt hitch of Kubota B3200

    This is what I've learned here.... Attached ( you can click on the pic for a larger image) is a sample of hydraulic lines. I did not add the return lines for simplicity, the blue lines are the hydraulic "feed" lines and will "ALL" have pressure once they are used. The Black boxs are your...

    GST vs HST during a shift change

    I know my 8 speed gst trans has a hesitation when shifting on the fly. There's that "pause" before it enters the next shift. Do the hst tranny's do the same?, or is it a smooth transition without the pause?

    Foot throttle on the L4200,..do you use yours.

    On my 1996, I can only get the foot throttle up to 2000 rpm's, then i have to switch to the arm lever. Has anybody modified theirs to bring up the rpm's. I'd like to just be able to use the foot throttle, it would be one less "lever" to use. Is this possible, or am I missing something here.:(

    Loader still has down presure in "float" position??

    Funniest thing, my massey 60 backhoe will not go into float. The loader locks into float ok, but when I proceed to go forward, the loader lifts the wheels off the ground. If while in "float" and the throttle is raised in neutral, it will not raise the loader. I've adjusted the cable to ensure...
