I traded my 2310 for a 1531 with the subframe backhoe. The bolts that go down to a pin and anchor keeps loosen up in the turnbuckle. The bolts are located on both sides of the rear pto, frame is held on with a rear pin and front attachment under the floorpan. It will tighten more if backhoe is...

Hi, folks. I haven't been on in awhile. My front axle seals at the joint where front wheels pivot on axle are weeping. Has anyone else had this happen, my machine has 500 hours. Does loader put more wear, strain on front end? I've been looking at the newer model, I think it is the 2410...

My tractor had looseness in front axle. Northwood Power Equipment, sent the service truck,[Lucien ,nice fellow] replaced the pin,in my dooryard. Front end tighter now. The pin passes thru a set of bushings,o-rings, because it is in the axle housing. Bushings are what controls the tightness of...

My tractor has 370 hours now, the cradle bolt that holds front axle on where it pivots, is sloppy and my collar on hydraulic cylinder on the backhoe is rubbing and wearing into boom when it is fully retracted. Looks like vibration is causing this. Any suggestions? plowking

This is probably in wrong forum, but my son-in-law just purchased a old loader. I'm looking for places for info, parts ,tires ,etc. He bought it very reasonably, but left rear tire leans, turning radius is not good , it has four wheel drive, motor runs pretty good, but floats in carb are bad...

I posted this also in M/F forum, but didn't know if it applied to other brands. I have a subcompact tractor GC 2310. I was told the attachments for this machine, possibly other subcompacts as well, because of low clearance need lo pro attachments. The attachments for compact machines won't work...

My dealer told me the 2310 is a lo profile machine, it needs lo pro three point attachments to work. I got a price of 650.00 for a lo pro 60 inch york rake, an additional 300.00 for the wheel kit. Is this a fair price or should I look around or are lo pro attachments rare? Thanks. plowking

I had a chance to buy some used attachments for my tractor. The dealer says because I have a low tractor, the three point hitch and attachments have to ride level. so attachments for larger or higher small tractors won't work. Yes or No? The dealer has low profile attachments made same height as...

I have a GC2310, today my wife was loading rocks for a wall, one rock rolled off and broke headlight and dented headlight opening in hood. I could possibly fix dent and touchup paint, depending on what hoods cost and I need the headlight assembly. My dealer has Sunday hours so I'll call him...

Can anyone tell me where I can get a bolt on cutting edge, I'm starting to wear the cutting edge that is welded on as part of loader bucket. And I am also looking for a mechanical thumb that can be welded or bolted onto backhoe. My dealer has one and I was quoted 375.00 for thumb and 300.00 for...

We didn't get the storm we needed today. I'm getting calls for septic systems freezing from lack of insulation that snow cover provides. Systems that have little water use or little hot water use and septic system located in shade seem to be freezing first. Some suggestions are to cover septic...

I have a GC2310 and there is play in the swing piston where it attachs to backhoe . It takes grease and is a fairly new machine.You can swing boom at bucket by hand a good inch or more. Is there a bushing or pin wearing that I should have checked or is it normal? Would this be covered under...

The swing piston on backhoe has some play in it, it takes grease fine. Is this normal? The machine has about 120 hours on it, about 1/4 of that is backhoe use. Also is there a guard for the stablizer pistons, I'm worried that rocks, debris from piles is going to damage the finish on the...

My wife was using tractor and the backhoe, she had to move seat a lot. At the end of day, the tractor stalled and wouldn't click or start. I called the dealer and he had me check the fuses, the 10 amp was blown. They said if the harness to safety switch gets pinched and damages wire [ no wire...

Hi, I was looking at my swivel seat base, and I was wondering if I put stiffer coil springs on pin that hinges the base, would it lift better? My wife has trouble holding up weight of seat to turn it and get it locked. I also notice bottom lever will bind against seat support while I raise it...

My hitch frame on pickup is a Class III, but the receivers I have for 2 inch ball have a lower rating than the hitch. Do they make a receiver with Class III rating and would ball have to be 2 5/16 inches, even though my trailer is a 2 inch coupler on tongue of trailer. plowking

Hi, I just got tractor. I might have to lubricate locking mechanism as it is hard to lock seat in backhoe position. Also the backhoe and loader won't do two functions at same time. My wife was running it today, but she is used to larger machines where you can curl bucket and move the boom at...
