Thank You Dirty Deed, I call myself looking for information in the owners manual, apparently I over looked the info on the torque value. Shame on me! That's the first thing I normally do. And thank you to Sheepfarmer, the photos etc are very helpful.. I really appreciate this forum and all...

Should I need to adjust and or retighten loader mount bolts, does anyone know the recommended torque ?? L3301 with FEL LA525 The only info I find so far is torque values for bolts sizes in general but may not be specific for an application. TN Road Dog

The garage floor is pretty darn level left to right of the tractor. The floor does have an ever slight slope to the garage door opening which the tractor faces. I have checked tire pressure, however, I have not measured tires to floor or axel to floor. I'll do that before taking more aggressive...

my bucket on my LA525 loader isn't level while parked on a good flat level surface. the left side of the bucket is still about one inch off surface when right side touches. I believe this has been the case since I purchased year an half ago by a smaller margin, but cannot be sure. I am...

I may have solved my on mystery on the noise I hear while backing up. After doing some research on wet brakes, the disk in wet brakes are known to bump together causing a click or clank noise when the wheel is in motion. When looking at a cutaway view of how wet brakes work it is understandable...

I'm new to tractors as well as a new member of Orange Tractor Talks. I have a two month old L3301HST, I was backing up yesterday after an oil change, no implements attached, I could hear a low level noise while backing up. Sounds like a click clank click. I also made a brake adjustment as the...
