New to me CUT TLB

[nbbt]

Hi folks. I recently acquired a used low hour 2638 HST TLB. Some of our property developments are a bit more intensive that I wanted to do with hand tools and what I had, thus the TLB.
I already have a interest in acquiring a couple of attachments to help with my project bucket list. Forks, Grapple, maybe a landscape rake, hyd. thumb and a box blade come to mind for the time being.

I'll be doing projects near central MN.

Welcome to TBN and I haven't seen someone their Zipcode as the location very clever, The 2638 is a good sized tractor - post some pics when you have a moment.

There are a lot of good ideas to add attachments - like adding a Hyd Thumb with a solenoid vs a mechanical thumb and so on. Then it will be the third function for a grapple on the front which make it much more versatile machine.

My 2638 TLB is in transport, I should have it in the next day or 2.

If a PDF of the factory service manual is available and could be shared it would be much appreciated. A pm with the manual or where it is available would be very helpful.

I want to go over this from end to end as I'm not sure how well it was maintained prior to my acquisition, and I am a very hands on type of owner.

Welcome aboard! I'm also kinda new here. I work for Evernote—remotely—from my little farm in the countryside, and honestly, I love it. Living surrounded by nature gives me peace, and it’s pretty cool that I can still use my technical skills to make a decent living without having to leave this beautiful place. Looking forward to connecting with like-minded folks here
