In that case, maybe try some penetrating oil and an air hammer if it’s being uncooperative. 😉

I’m not a machinist. I’ve built enough custom furniture to know sometimes you put a mortise and tenon where a couple pocket screws would work just as well because you see the mortiser looking neglected and just feel like it. If that’s what you’re doing, swell. But, dude… really...

Yep. Loader on the ground, engine off, move joystick to relieve pressure. Unless the pin is seized, it shouldn’t be a big deal to remove it, clean everything up, and reinstall. A good sized flat end punch is helpful to knock it out and align the holes to reinstall. Hydraulic cylinders are...

What PTO vac do you have?

That’s definitely a bad day. Part 2 for any interested in the explanation of cause and outcome. https://youtube.com/shorts/3tSjcOgG2Yw?si=CY2SltolBrCtbdP1

Not getting into the technical aspects of adding a third function to run your grapple. There are others here more capable to address those issues. However, you mention possibly using the existing rear remotes to operate the grapple. My L has a dealer installed WR Long electric diverter to run...

I’d use a middle buster, or boxblade, or backblade if possible (personally I use a boxblade or backblade for clearing ditches and turnouts), but you already said you need something offset and your hitch doesn’t have enough tilt to do what you need with a blade. An offset backblade such as...

No, thank you. I never want to live anywhere I’d need an oven thermometer to check the temperature on the porch. 😉

Finally starting to get rid of a few things three and a half years after my father passed away. We had four lawnmowers: a 1960 something Pennsylvania Panzer, my 15 year old Cub ZTR, my father’s little Craftsman rider, and the Kubota T2290. The T is the only one we’ve used since we bought it...

Had a few people staying in the guest house for a couple nights for a funeral. Pulled the trailers out of the carport and set them out of sight in the edge of the woods by the west end of the dam. Guests are gone. One of the last steps in cleanup is putting the trailers back in the carport. I’ve...

Thanks. That adds significant context to the issue.

That That makes sense. False or misleading statements result in liability for damage caused by reliance on those statements. After posing my question, did some looking and found a few sellers with statements similar to the below. “…is designed for…requirements of equipment manufacturers where...

I don’t run 303 in anything. The H and wood splitter have Traveller Universal Hydraulic Fluid in them. My L has SUDT2. My ZTR has 20w-50 full synthetic motor oil in the hydraulic motor system because that’s what it specs. I don’t use enough hydraulic fluid in aggregate for the cost difference...

After viewing the video @Old Machinist posted in #6, I understand the legal theory for suing that particular manufacturer as they’re alleged to have marketed a product as 303 which wasn’t actually 303. I’ve had a bit more confusion on some of the other lawsuits. Were the 303 manufacturers...
