TL 100A

[David2222]

I just purchased a used 2007 TL100A tractor, 4WD, Cab, 830TL Loader. It has 12/12 Transmission. Any advice, tips, tricks or suggestions would be appreciated.

Is this your first tractor?

 

[David2222]

No, I have an Allis Chalmers 7030 and had a John Deere 5400

Good, that would be a big tractor to start with. Just be careful til you get used to it.

1) Check all fluid levels, including front axle differential. Get an Operators Manual, if it didn't come with the tractor.

2) As soon as possible, change all the fluids and filters that you checked in #1. I start with motor oil, then anti-freeze/coolant......

Just reading that you already have 2 tractors.... you likely know the above, but it's worth me boring you with...

Rgds, D.

Thanks for your comments and I admire your Safety consciousness

Thanks Dave, as you suggest I plan to fully service the Tractor. I have not had any experience with New Holland and was just looking for some advice

A well built tractor is a pretty tough machine, but they all benefit from regular maintenance - good to hear you are on-board with that already. I've had good Parts service from my nearest NH dealer, no complaints there. Have used their filters, and also Wix for oil.

Should be some other '100A folks around in a bit. Yours is not what I consider an old tractor, but you might also want to post it's Operating Hours here too.
