The B2650 count down has begun!

The T handle is the screw to set your seat suspension. You want to be sitting up in the spring, not bottomed out.

 

[Rock Crawler]

Mine has a bolt in that hole....

 

[Dan33Klein]

The t handle is to tighten or loosen the spring pre load on the seat. For us heavier guys it needs to be turned some to increase the tension.

Doing some wet and heavy snow removal this afternoon.

 

[Dan33Klein]

You got some down pressure there Larry!

Do you have your front tires filled also?

 

[Rock Crawler]

No on the front tires. On my BX I had all 4 filled. But in this one we just did the rear. I'm actually pushing snow with the loader valve pushed forward into float mode. The weight of the snow forces the loader arms to try and find back under the machine so it pivots the tractor up into the air like that. You can control the lift by curling the bucket angle up, but then you don't scrape clean on the blacktop.

10-4
I was maybe gonna fill my fronts. But with a 14” rim you pry can’t get much in there anyway.

Be careful doing that -- you could easily trash the cylinders if you even briefly bump an immovable object or catch the bucket lip on something. The lift cylinders are up against their stops and the curl cylinders are ripe for being bent or cracked. In general you need to be careful pushing with the front loader, as hydraulic relief won't protect the loader arms and cylinders if you hit something, but this is an especially vulnerable situation.

Hey B2650 owners,

I,ve got a couple questions in checking out my new tractor.

1. What's the "T"handle for seen at the back of the seat? I've looked in the OE manual and see no reference to it, and don't want to start
turning it just to see what it does. View attachment 539013View attachment 539014

2. Are there some missing bolts in my loader frame?View attachment 539015View attachment 539016

3. Do any of you have the MMM? I can't figure out the hardware seen that is suppose to hold the MMM (arms) in the up position. There is only one side (left) that shows a connection using the ""rue ring cotter pin" (I removed it) pg 28 in the OE MMM manual.View attachment 539019 View attachment 539020

Cheers To All,
Mike

Hey Mike. What is your question on the mmm hardware. In your second pic it is hooked up properly to hold the mmm arm up. There should be one on each side to hold the arms up. When not in use rotate the bracket back around and slide it over the pin and put the clip back in. I have this setup and can help if I knew exactly what your question is. Let me know.

Just trying to be helpful here. s219 is exactly right. Alot of undue stress on the loader and cylinders and you will have your cutting edge on your bucket wore off in no time rolled over that far.
