    Maintenance Questions

    I know this is a relatively easy manual lookup stuff but you guys are always way more helpful. KIOTI NS 4710 - about 11 hours 1. I need to get a grease gun and do the fittings I suppose? Do I typically need a special fitting or are they pretty much standard. Can you over grease? Does any grease...

    3 point hitch carry all as a road maintenance drag?

    We had a new road cut and 3/4 crushed rock laid - about 500 feet and 10-15% grade. We also have another driveway (800') I maintain with my grader blade (nice crown there). Anyway, for the new road, I have used my box blade and grader to spread the crushed rock, but not ideal - doable, but I am...

    First time owner Montana 3840, general questions/maintenance questions

    Finally got rid of the skidsteer to switch to a tractor for chores around the homestead. I have previously owned a 1960s Allis Chalmers, but this is my first "modern" tractor. The Montana only has 292 hours on it, but the buddy I bought it from got it on trade for another piece of equipment so...

    which grease for slow & fast bearings & bushings

    Small TLB here with a few implements that have bearings such as a pto snowblower, pto chipper. I've just used the same grease all around until now - but it's been nagging me and I doubt my lithium/moly grease correct for the "fast" or "spinning" interfaces. For the loader, BH, grapple, etc -...

    Clearing Snow Off An Open Station

    Hey, folks. Just got my first tractor, an MX6000 ROPS with a canopy. Due to supply issues I got it by surprise. I hadn't expected it til spring so I got caught with my pants down on storage. I plan to use the thing all Winter but being in Vermont that means my operator's station is already...

    Valve adjustment at 800 hour service for Kioti DK45S

    My DK45S is due for 800 hour service. I'm able to change fluids and filters myself, but the owners manual states the engine valve clearance should be adjusted at 800 hours and that I should consult my dealer. Adjusting the valves is beyond my DYI skills. I bought the tractor new in 2008 and it's...
