    Just got a 1739E, what are these two symbols?

    I think thclimer is right I have a Kubota 33 hp it has went to Regen once or twice due to low RPM. Regen mode runs the engine at high RPM to generate enough heat to clear the carbon build up. I have found using a tiller or bush hog running at the recommender PTO rpm clears it up in short order also.

    Broken welds

    Was a welder for many years the truth is if a weld is properly applied the weld will be stronger that the surrounding metal. I have seen this on many occasions where over stressing the joint it is the metal not the weld that failed.

    MF 1835M loader support collapsed on tractor

    May be some design problems but, the steel was sub standard to rip apart like it did. Looks as though the welds were good, they never failed, One side has been breaking for a while you can see this by the rust in the old crack and the shine on the new rip apart. Maybe substandard steel in my...
