those letters for the key are Start to left (when warm no need to switch by the glow plugs) to the right are engine/gauges ON then HEAT ON and then START need to hold the key in the H postion when cold out to warm the glow plugs 10~20 sec, no more than 30 sec or failure can occure.

make sure to check all teh fitting s nuts and bolts EVERYWHERE! lots of things come slightly loose from china trip.

(
2) i think fluid replacement is as follows:
-5 gal for gear oil (trans and front end)
-5 gal hydraulic
- 7 quarts engine oil
- 6 ounces for injector pump )

Spec sheet (in liters) says
6.0l engine oil (assumes filter change)
4.5l front differential
14.0l tranny/rear diff
9.0l hydraulic reservior (doesn't count FEL/backhoe)
8.0l radiator
Don't have a spec on the inj pump, but I've heard a lotta folks talkin' more like 2-3 ounces.

Well you got lots of words of wisdom here already, as for the horn contacts at the wheel, the membrane switch on the wheel is a little less than durable so we dont wire it up, just use the dash button for the horn. you can slide the rubber boot up and hold it in place with a black tie wrap clamping the bottom of the boot to the steering column.

Here are pics of the new hyd filter: new filter

John,

Does the filter actually stick out that far? I have ordered the conversion kit but the way it looks to me I might stand a chance of ripping it off on something!

( Does the filter actually stick out that far? )

I cropped and clarified the part that I think concerns you, and it's not as bad as it looked. If the QD hoses were tied up out of the way, I don't actually think the external filter assembly sticks out all that much farther than did the original rigid pipe position.

Ugly, but effective - I guess that's what counts.

Wayne,

It is hard to tell from the pictures. Given the bend in the pipe before it enters the hyd pump, I'd say its does stick out. Once you put a fel on, it is probably not that bad. PM or email me. I'd like to know the total parts ordered (4?), and cost. Thanks.
