Help with Iseki TA545F...

[Wrighta]

Hi, I recently bought a TS545F with Lewis 45Q front loader. So far so good but with no manual, I'm having to guess my way round a few things. If anyone had a user manual (think TA537F/TA545F are covered by one manual) and could post details of how to get, i'd be really grateful.
I have found other manuals and details and pieced together most things. However, the main questions I have are around the external hydraulics: there are two levers adjacent to the position/draft controls. How do these work?
Also, I've read some gearboxes have synchromesh for 3rd/4th gears in High, so you can change from 3rd to 4th without stopping. Does anyone know if the TA545 does? Not exactly the sort of thing I'd like to just try!
Trying to find main hydraulics dip & fill location too.

I'm based in West Lothian, central Scotland if anyone's nearby...

Thanks in advance!

AlanW.

Hi Alan,

Your tractor is new enough to still be supported by the distributor, if you contact ransomes, the UK agent , they can probably get the manual for you - let us know how you get on and if they are helpful or not.

As it happens the parts manual for the 545 is on there site: Jacobsen - Renowned for Turf Maintenance Solutions

scroll down to 'models out of production' and the 545 is on there. I find the parts manuals almost more informative than the operator/service manuals. Looking at the parts diagrams will probably answer the questions you have.

Good Luck,

Dan
