    tuff torque k46bt swap out to K57r. anyone?

    I don't know, but Husqvarna says my tractor has a K46bt, and K46BT is in the parts diagram. However the sticker and Tuff Torq agree its a K57R. I believe from the factory. It uses the foot pedal shifter, not the hand lever. YTH24V48 Not sure what year, maybe 2018. The LTH17546 has a K46BS...

    Tuff Torq K57R 10W-30 or 5-50 synthetic oil?

    Agreed on the 5w50. You are on top of the game as the maintanence for these is not in any schedules I've seen. A change of oil at 50+ hours and another every 2 or 3 hundred could do wonders for these cheaper "maintanence free" transmissions. Consider replacing the filter if you suspect you...

    Yanmar SA424 - 1.3L 3TNV80F - engine hop up

    Feathering the "go" pedal to keep the HST just creeping in low range seems to work. I saw a thread on Yahoo groups, where the opinion was posted that a turbo on a non-sleeved cylinder Yanmar would result in a short life and egg shaped cylinders balooning at the bottom, and blow-by. Re: FX22D...

    Mowing  Sand Blades? Low lift or no lift?

    At wits end. Burn up about 4 sets of high lift or mulching blades every year. Place is getting more level bit by bit but gophers (almos tgonr, but I have one in my sights this year) and runoff (pit to catch water and little dams beyound them and settle sand). Anyhow, noone sells the cut coener...

    Yanmar SA424 - 1.3L 3TNV80F - engine hop up

    The biggest issue is not realizing to achieve the lowest gear, feather the hydrostatic pedal. By creeping up the hill, at fll RPM, I am fighting an urge to press the pedal a bit further... I did NOT fight that urge and constantly nearly stalled. Correct about the messic video Thank you...

    New Holland Boomer 37 in DPF Shutdown Mode

    When I bought mine I ended up getting a tiny tractor to avoid the mess. Under 25hp was exempt. I'm glad there is a work-around. Seems the EPA manages too many manufacturers, where is their competition?

    Noticeable, regular "lurch" felt on smooth roads.

    I had a diff-lock engaged. Made a nasty pop sound if the tires couldn't slip, like on asphalt. On some smaller tractors, if the brake pedal is down a bit, the diff-lock engages, even though the brake is not engaging.

    Yanmar SA424 - 1.3L 3TNV80F - engine hop up

    I'm working in low range, RPM 2500 to 3000rpm, I bump it up to 3100rpm when working hard, and climbing steeper slopes. I've found feathering the forward pedal to have it barely crawl works. I reckon using the HST as it's lowest gear, to just creep up the slope. Makes sense thinking of it as a...

    424 Locking Diff Kit

    Seems I was bit by the starter interlock to the parking brake, the parking brake interplay with the diff lock, the locking parking brake and asphalt. Noticed the diff lock as the tires slipped and the diff lock popped. Yuck. Rounded off the tips diff-lock pins where they are supposed to slip...

    Yanmar SA424 - 1.3L 3TNV80F - engine hop up

    1) is the parking brake OFF? Likely not. I bump the parking brake to start the tractor and sometimes it hangs. Adjusting the brake so it brakes when applied helped me to notice this. 2) Are the Yanmar's rear tires turning without the tractor moving forward, creating rear tire ruts? The...

    Yanmar 324 Questions from a New Owner

    Thank you for the insight there. I've been twisting the right lifting rod adjustment mindful of the lack of thread bite when overextended. Will try tilting using the holes... Erbid

    424 Locking Diff Kit

    Looks like the link moved: To Use The Differential Lock, Use The Brake - YANMAR America Corporation I have the kit and thought it worked OK, but now I think I have no diff lock at all. Best I can do is 2wd, one front, one rear.

    Yanmar SA424 - 1.3L 3TNV80F - engine hop up

    I have a small Yanmar that I dig with frequently. Newish SA434 (200 hours) with a stock 1.3L 3TNV80F engine (Thinking it may be like a JD 1025R engine ( 1.3L 3TNV80). Problem is with a full scoop of dirt I can't drive up a steep slope! (no, I don't want a backhoe unless its scoop is about...
