YM2500 HYDRAULIC LEAKS

[Travis_R]

Kenmac,

Thanks for your advice. I really do appreciate it. But that 6 month parts and labor warranty was with the YM2000 that I had. A guy a couple miles up the road has it now and uses it regularly.

The YM2500 that I bought only came with a 30 day parts warranty. No labor was included, but they put a 'new' control valve assembly on for free, since I had problems with it the very first day I had it. But it still isn't fixed.

Aaron,

Yes, you have helped. I honestly didn't know that brand new 'expensive' tractors did that also. I'll probably be tearing it dow as soon as I get off this turn-around. I'll be ordering parts from you, along with a service manual, when I decide to fix it.

Thanks

Travis

I can't remember .But I think the tractor I bought directly from fredricks had either a 90 day parts & labor or 6 mo parts & labor warranty. This type warranty may not be offered anymore or the person that you bought must not offer this same warranty. But, when I bought mine, I was told it had bumper to bumper warranty

Bumper to bumper...........considering that tractors don't have bumpers, is that like the old 90 days or 90 feet warranty?

Kenmac,

Have you had any problems with your tractor?

Kenmac,

Have you had any problems with your tractor?

Only front wheel seal & bad tach. I didn't even return it for that very easy repair. Just had them send parts

Travis my 2210 will leak down but it takes hours. I don't leave any thing up though. My front end loader don't leak down but I don't leave it up either. I did not think LMTC's story was appropriate but I did like the story. I myself did not picture you as he obviously did but I think the story itself is the best thing he has ever said on the forum. Doc...dead men do bleed... what hoot. good one LMTC.....good one. Now Travis I would say that if ur unit leaks down with a medium load in minutes that you should look into improving it. You do seem to have a valid concern and I think a pretty good attitude.....

Kenmac,

Yeah, I wouldn't complain about a front wheel seal or bad tach either. I honestly don't even consider those as 'problems'.I would end up fixing them though.

 

[Travis_R]

Great,

I do try to be fair to people. There's always 2 sides to every story.

With my finish mower attached, it takes probably 5 minutes or less to leak down. Now granted, I always drop my implement to the ground when I kill the engine. I just know that its not supposed leak down, but I have to at least try to attempt to fix it- for my peace of mind.

Once i get off this turn-around, i'm gonna look in to it.

Thanks,

Travis R

Well I don't always do thing right. Left a motor up in the air on my 2210 for 3 or 4 days.with the boom pole . Was working on my wife's lawn tractor last week it stay in the air for 2 days behind the 2210 .

Well Giz I guess that is why they put that stop valve on there. So u can leave ur engine in the air while u cool ur wifes heels.......
