Well fellas. Looks like my good streak just ran out. Was plowing and got the beep. Caution and stop displayed. Error code f02 s636

That appears to be a Crank Signal Early fault, lost fault, missing fault, or over speed fault. I've attached some screen shots from the service manual. Hopefully its just a loose wire or sensor, or bad sensor.

I see a few post about a recall on the harness on the smaller tractors. Wonder if mine has one. Really sucks. Was in the middle of plowing to beat the rain.

Crank sensor failing is pretty common. Part # 40511370. Easy fix and falls under 5 year emissions warranty.

I also want more protection for brush and to add some holes for chains. I hate chaining over the axle to haul.
I had expanded metal added to my bush guard and a clevis that I can put a shackle on to run chain through for transport. Guess you could weld a grab hook there since you take your bucket off.

A while back I took some 1/2" plate (I think its half inch, don't really remember) scrap I had, cut it so it would hang down a bit from the frame, drilled some holes in the plate to match the ones already on the frame, and then welded some D-rings to the bottom portion. I did this on both sides. This is where I typically keep a chain, and where I tie the tractor down to a trailer.

I did similar, I made these out of some scrap 3/8" steel I had. I have ratcheting straps with safety hooks that snap right on quick and easy.
