One says one type of motor...

Jinma 304 Won\'t rev!! Hello All, I was out on the tractor yesterday, I now have 47 Hours on her without issue, and I noticed I cannot get the RPM's past 1800, could this simply be a linkage issue, I have tried both the throttle stick and the foot pedal, 1800 is all she's got. I have not tried...

Hello All, My dealer did not install my seat belts on my Jinma 304 and said he would never use them if he were me, however, I would like to install them anyway and use them, but cannot figure how they are to be mounted. He left the belts with me loosely packed and they also came with 2 brackets...

Hello All again, Well I decide that last Weekend I would really work the little Jinma 304 Hard. I was moving lots of dirt that I had hauled in. Anyway, the 3 Point hitch in the rear, fitted with a 60 inch gannon just stopped working??? I could grab the lower arms and move the thing up and down...

Hello All again, Well I hooked up my Ganon today for the first time and am having some problems with it. I have a Woods 65 scraper where I can manually take out or install the rippers, or I think they call them scarifyers? anyhow, on my old Ford 650 I could shorten the top link and angle the...
