    how much gear oil for a woods RC-5 rotary cutter?

    I use Amsoil Severe Gear 75/140 in my Kubota mower. Takes about 1 qt. Buy a couple of qts to be sure that you have enough. You can save the leftover oil for the next time. Have you figured out how to get the oil out yet? I used a small hand pump to suck the oil out…. I change it every even...

    Gas Shutoff's

    RX7320 Fuel Sending Unit (Crud)

    Just remember that biocide kills the (microbes)bug….but doesn’t clean the fuel system. That’s the big part of the job. Draining/flushing the complete system and multiple filter changes. Best to prevent the problem in the first place 😉

  26. Robin Veerman

    Kubota L3540 won't start

    Ok, so you've drained/changed the diesel fuel and changed the filter. Check in your manual for directions to bleed the system. However, make sure that your battery has been topped up too, as you're going to be cranking the engine quite a bit.

    Tractor stalls when brake is applied.

    HST tractors etc need to run at or just under the “540” pto rpm when doing anything other than parked at idle, which is likely around the 2000-2400 engine rpm. Read the manual.

    Kubota LX4020 cold start

    Cranking the starter for a minute or two….will burn out the starter. Check with the dealer as to what oil they put in. Hopefully it’s not a 15w40.

    I have a portable Honda EM6500SX and I run it monthly for about 30 minutes with a 4500 watt shop heater plugged into it. This load is about 2/3rds of its maximum. Is this too hard on it? It gives a nice grunt when I turn it on, after a warmup, and handles it well without any sense of straining.

    CK3510 Injector Cross Reference

    With such low hours it would seem to me that fuel quality might be the root cause? Diesel is dirty and low on cetane compared to diesel in Europe.

    Add a cetane improver to reduce the ignition rattle. Typical diesel cetane is just over 40. Diesel provides more/better power if the cetane is around 52ish. It could be old fuel in the tractor tank too?

    NS4710C HST 50-hour service question

    I’m not very familiar with your exact model, but being an HST tractor it likely has a hydraulic filter and HST filter. If so, they are different but in the same oil. The oil needs to be tractor transmission/hydraulic oil. Not only hydraulic…. Check your manual for the correct items
