Its just like every other tractor you only adjust one side to level it.

I just noticed you already have a BX if the tractor on your profile is up to date. I gotcha now. Yeah for a big diesel lawn tractor the JD 700 series you are looking at doesn't have many other comparisons out there.

Have you looked at a 1 series JD as well? Size wise not much different than the X750. The 1 series is a better comparison to the BX.

It’s been sitting outside for a long time for sure. Nothing is gouged below air cleaner that’s a flexible heat shield / blanket it looks normal just dirty. They definitely should have cleaned it up and I would want some money knocked off for the fact it’s been outside so long.

2,4 D is great for most broadleaf but the topic is johnson grass. The original poster is trying to eliminate johnson grass. It’s hard to control and not harm other grasses. Spot spraying or as was the topic here wiping it with glyphosate is economical and you don’t use much chemical. Pastora...

What selective herbicide do you use broadcast to control johnson grass that doesn't affect the other grasses.

We used a wick bar on johnson grass back in the day. Long PVC pipe with rope wick. Mixed glyphosate 50/50 with water. Wick Bar

Pull type or 3 pt ? It’s easy to pop a remote lever into detent and not notice especially on a turn around trying to get lined up.

Can’t get much simpler or heavy built. Engine parts are dirt cheap and plentiful. Wet sleeved engine as long as you don’t crack block or head can be easily overhauled and used indefinitely.

Make sure hydraulic quick connections are fully seated.

Depends on your location. Chert you can get here in west TN doesn't hold very well, it washes but it's cheap so people use it. Put crushed limestone on top of it and it holds fine.

They are awesome. I use them for gas and diesel. They hold up well and you can get spare parts when things wear.

It's a dry clutch. Sounds like it's slipping or worn out as said above. What is the free play now?

I prefer a pull - keeps tail from wagging the dog

PB from loader valve to 3rd function valve. 3rd function valve has a PB port that runs to rear remotes. Rear remotes power beyond feed 3pt valve then 3pt valve dumps to tank. That is the sequence for just about any open center hydraulics in a tractor like yours.

He got banned on OTT so I guess this thread struck a nerve?

Sounds like you might have some air in there. You drained the old coolant already and are flushing with clean water and radiator flush if I'm reading correctly. When you drained it did you drain out the radiator and the block? There is a block drain just forward of the oil fill cap.

When you say the block gets hot, how are you measuring the temp? What does the temp gauge on the dash indicate? It takes awhile to get a diesel that isn't under load to warm up and open up the thermostat. Infrared thermometer would be helpful for you to see what the temp actually is before you...

Don't grind anything, don't buy anything expensive. What you need is an over-running coupler / clutch. 1. Will help keep the momentum of the mower blades from "driving" the tractor when you throttle down. 2. Will allow you to make your connection. Example over-running coupler

You feel better about yourself now. The red indicator is fuzzy it looks like it has fluid in it but so is the rest of the picture to me. New hydro fluid is straw to almost clear so I can’t tell by a picture. Also welcome to my ignore list.

I can’t tell by the pictures when I zoom in I can’t see them well enough. Auto parts store will have some inexpensive dye you could add to verify or the dipstick idea.

What you added didn’t drain out hardly any. You maybe would have used a 1/2 pint or pint at most . Your level on sight glass or dipstick wouldn’t have moved enough to notice. You’re most likely overfull

Sorry to hear. Hope your buddy recovers soon.

The housing around the rear pto shaft is thin and prone to shatter if pushed in like when you have a sticky or frozen up pto shaft that isn't sliding like it should. Also I believe there are u joints on the drive shaft that are hidden that never gets lubed that can be a problem.

Great advice, hope the original poster reads it.

Selling dealer is taking the tractor back no problem. The whole issue that started the thread is settled.

My guess is you fried a battery cable / cable end. If one is super stiff and kind of cracks or insulation cracks off if you try to bend it then that's likely your culprit.

The o rings on the piston on these are known to wear and leak internally. Fortunately can be replaced from the top you just need to remove seat to get to everything.

The MX5400 on the 10’ would be a no. The Deere would be fine with it.

Kubota equivalent would be a M6060, but the Deere still heavier and out specs it a little in hydraulics.

An 8’ twin is a hell of a lot easier to run than a 7’ single. Your tractor would run a 8’ wonderfully. I personally prefer a pull type.

It's made by TYM. TYM owners say that TYM recommends this: Travller UTF There is also this if you want branded Rotella UTF If you have a Deere dealer nearby the HyGard is a great recommendation as well.

Open center hydraulic system. It runs in a series. Whatever is first in the series gets the priority of flow. If something upstream is being used anything downstream has to wait it's turn. If the thing upstream isn't using all the available flow the next thing downstream may work simultaneously...

I ordered a couple of threaded fittings came in a week or less later from them last month. No issues. Ordered on 8/8 received on 8/14

Normal in an open center system. The valve you are running the splitter with comes before the 3pt in your hydraulic circuit. After the fluid passes through the splitter it is going directly to the tank and not the 3pt.

One is on suction side before the pump the other is on pressure side before the HST.

I've got a wicked grapple from EA, and I love it. Everyone on here that gets one loves it. You seem unreasonable to me. They obviously aren't giving you a warm and fuzzy so do you and them a favor and don't buy it.

How handy are you mechanically?

Aww heck. When I replied I was going off thread title with "utility tractor" ie bigger tractor. For your GC good ratchet straps are fine.

Chains and binders, one at each corner (4 total). Any attachment on the 3pt another chain or heavy ratchet strap depending on what it is.

Sweet you'll enjoy that tractor. E Hydro is nice. Cruise and the stall guard feature (load match) are awesome. I had the previous series of those in a 4120. Very comfortable operators station that you can see very well off of. At least I could. Built solid too in the drives, axles etc.

Kioti is turbo Jeff not normally aspirated.

Jeff he isn’t looking at a RX model he’s looking at a DK your post here isn’t helpful

Jeff posted the wrong Kioti model. Original poster is looking at a DK6010 which weighs almost exactly the same as the Deere. Engine wise the Deere has a 4 cylinder turbo Yanmar that has slightly more displacement as the 3 cylinder turbo Kioti. Spec wise they are comparable

It really shouldn't be stuck as new as a tractor as that is. It isn't that big of a deal to lift off the top, you really should do it and clean under there occasionally. You shouldn't have to buy a new seal either it should seal back down.

There is a tank port on top of the transmission housing. You can tee into it. It is BSPP thread so you'll have to order the fittings if you don't have a dedicated hydraulic shop nearby. The return to tank line from your loader valve will be running to it. I'll try and take a picture of it later...

You need to take the roof off to access the ac on your tractor. It’s not hard. Look on the parts breakdown to identify which screws to remove it.

Agree you shouldn't be hot in it you should be able to stay comfortable. In a full hot sun 90 plus degree day it might not be able to freeze you out, but you shouldn't be hot either if that makes any sense.

You can see all the diagrams of your tractor on Messick's site. Also keep in mind a cab tractor has a ton of glass on top of the fact you are sitting on top of a hot transmission and right behind your steering wheel is a hot engine blowing it's hot air right on the firewall. What I'm getting at...

Kubota super UDT2

Clipped about 7 acres of pasture pulling an 8’ twin spindle pull behind bush hog today at 540 pto rpm the whole time. 95 degrees heat index of 104. Suction line on using my laser Klein thermometer read nearly 210 degrees. No jerkiness whatsoever.

Did you read the original post? They asked for recommendations for a North American red for someone who prefers an Australian syrah and I made a suggestion.

Try a Willamette Valley, Oregon Pinot Noir.

Updated GM iron duke would be a great one.

2020.

I just got the new software update done on mine. Cured the jerking. Check with your dealer again and have them see if yours could be updated anyway. Mine was done for free They came out to the farm installed an extra ground strap in the cab and did the update - jerking is gone.

Curious as well. Been looking for a pintle air brake trailer and these pop up often.

Keep in mind on the 24d and products that contain it you can damage neighboring crops. If someone has cotton anywhere near you don’t use it.

Can you be a little more specific. What equipment are you working on and what are you repairing or trying to accomplish. As far as hydraulic fittings if Surplus Center, Summit Hydraulics, or McMaster Carr don’t have it it doesn’t exist.

That should be your standard rear remote that comes on that tractor. Make sure the rear remote lever isn’t stuck in the detent position. Work the lever briskly to pop it out of detent and leave it in center neutral position

Do as you please. This is your second thread today about this tractor. Good luck with it.

Don't run it until you correct this problem! You're going to blow a hard line and or tear up your pump! You have an open center system which in short explanation means the fluid has to be moving in a circuit. You've effectively plugged the circuit by taking your backhoe out of the circuit...

Yours is a HST tractor right? If so look for Kubota super udt 2 or from John Deere low vis hyguard. Whichever dealer is more convenient to you either is a great choice for a HST transmission. Super UDT Low Vis Hyguard

Since it’s brand new put it back in dealers lap.

What kind of problems are you having?

I’d just mount a two spool loader type valve to the fender or on rops whichever side you turn around in the seat to run blower. Run power beyond from third function valve to it then from it to 3 point. It would be very intuitive to control blower with a single lever. Valve

What tractor are you mounting it on and what all hydraulic valves are on it now.

Example - Deere 314 Deere 314's for sale

Since you can write off (section 179 deduction) used equipment I'd just get a skid steer and keep your tractor the way it is. $20,000 to $30,000 can get a nicer late model one (with tires not tracks, tracked ones are more) with 1,500 hours or so.

Flickering when you try to turn it over as crazy as it sounds even though it worked the day before I'd really check the battery and it's connections real good. Check the ground cable to the frame as well. Do you have a battery load tester? If so I'd load test it and check how many amps its...

It’s insurance against the asset if it’s financed. Not advocating a get out of jail free.

I don't have any experience with them so take it for what it's worth but there are 12v package unit rooftop ac options out there now. All the off grid RVing crowd along with the tech for semi trucks to park without running their main engine have driven it. Might be worth exploring.

Local JD and Kubota lots are brimming. This is in west Tennessee

Less weight overall and less slop in the connections. You can make sure you are using good steel and having it welded up correctly if you either do it your self or have someone you trust convert it. Makes it easier for you to sell if you decide to get rid of it later for some reason.

I wouldn't mess with an adapter, just get it welded up to SSQA. Cut off the pins and JD ears and have SSQA welded on.

Compact track loader would serve you better than a tractor for now. 25,000 you would be looking at a slightly high hour machine that might need a little work.

For Bermuda try Fusilade. It doesn’t work fast on it but works. Beauty of it you can spray now and again over the top in the spring when the rhizomes sprig back out and not harm your broadleafs you planted in the fall

Reason I ask is it's all irrelevant unless you know what it is OP is trying to control. For instance if it's bermuda glyphosate isn't going to be that effective no matter the rate. If it's fescue glyphosate 41% at 2 quarts per acre would work great.

What kind of grass are you trying to kill?

I just looked at parts break down. Perhaps you could fit a tee into the tank port on the distribution block and retain the stainless line then make up a hose to go from new valves tank port to the tee.

Tank line just needs to dump back into sump - top of the transmission. Look all over the top of the transmission for threaded plugs or perhaps an inspection plate you could remove and install a fitting in. Run a hose from tank port to said fitting.

I've purchased several things from them. Last was a third function kit. I had some technical questions that were answered quickly and accurately. Quality for me has been great. Shipping fast. Based on my own experience I say they are good to go.

This is your most likely problem given symptoms. Do this first. Also, does it have a joystick lock? If so make sure that isn't engaged or partially engaged. Usually a small lever near the joystick.

For new the Bransons spec out pretty dang good in that class. I don't own one, but wouldn't have any problem buying one. Their compacts have some weight to them and they are matched up to what looks on paper to be a great loader for the class of tractor. Their owners seem to love them as well...

Solid looking tractor, doesn't look beat up. Those are well built utility tractors that you can still actually work on. Three remotes on the back plus the loader it's "loaded out" on hydraulics which is a bonus. That was the last you could get before all the Tier 4 crap had to be added to...
