    Loader slowly lowers itself when under a load.

    I have a MT225s with loader and front mount snowblower. Last summer I used the bucket hook and a chain to lift the front of my smaller lawn tractor. After about 15 minutes the bucket had lowered the lawn tractor about 4-5 inches. Today I left the snowblower raised to let the snow melt out after...

    Generator Dummy Load

    How do you guys put load on your generators during maintenance runs? I usually just use the house as a load but the momentary loss of power during the changeover causes problems with household electronics. I've been thinking of getting a couple of cheap electric heaters, but I'd like something...

    Load test the battery.

    I see it over and over, a person has a starting issue. It just clicks, turns over slow or other weird electrical issues. They say “the battery is good”. The first thing to do is load test the battery. These also give you the voltage of the battery but that alone isn’t enough. The picture...

    Floor load calcs need help

    Received a Graceland Portable building, a 12 x 20 with 12" center floor joist. Graceland could not tell me size of floor joist, neither seemed interested in finding out. It appears that sales is the strong point and tech support is a bother(?), my perception only folks. Not a slam on them, it's...

    Toro Wheelhorse sputters under load

    I have a Toro Wheelhorse that sat for a year and I’m trying to bring it back to life. Drained the old gas, got a new fuel filter, out on a new carb …and it starts right up and drives around in flat surfaces. But the minute I go up a hill or engage the mower deck, it sputters …assuredly because...

    JD 5045e warning beeps when under load with full throttle

    Driving me crazy! Warning triangle on dash display with ! keeps showing up without really pulling it down...up a hill or any change in the load. Manual gives same good old response-call your dealer. Warning for all: I bought this new from a major dealer in another state and my local dealer...

    Case 4240 relief valve question

    I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question I have a Case 4240 which I am pretty happy with. It pretty much does all I need it to do. It has a front loader which I have never really put to the test until this year. I tried to lift some round bales of silage. It will not lift them...

    Load box for portable generator

    I purchased a 4800 watt emergency generator and intend to run it under load every 6 months. My question is how much load is necessary. I bought a 1600 watt range top element to use, but I wonder if more is needed. they are only $17 so no big deal to add another, just wondering if it's necessary.
