    Offset flail mower on B7100, hydraulics?

    Thanks for all the advice! I'm close to knowing what I need now, one thing I'm still in doubt about is if I should get control valves with a 4th detent 'float' position. I think I probably should...

    Offset flail mower on B7100, hydraulics?

    That's good to know :), it's probably easiest to take the high pressure from the block next to the fuel filter by making a new top half and routing the power beyond back to it as well. But what is the best place to channel the back to tank line to?

    Offset flail mower on B7100, hydraulics?

    I'm now looking into the hydraulics, I need to sort the rear remotes before I get the mower anyway. I'm pretty new to hydraulics, but I like to learn.. and it's pretty interesting stuff. I figured out that the B7100 has an open center system with a fixed displacement pump. Am I right in...

    Offset flail mower on B7100, hydraulics?

    What kind of rims do you use? This is my current setup, but the tires aren't loaded.

    Offset flail mower on B7100, hydraulics?

    I was thinking about using the smallest one available to me, which is around 110cm or about 3.6ft, I want to use it to mow along ditches and such so bigger would be better.. but the B7100 is pretty narrow and I don't want to topple it so I don't want too much offset weight.

    Offset flail mower on B7100, hydraulics?

    I'm thinking about something like this: http://www.conceptagri.com/CS.pdf the CS110 The hydraulics are only used for positioning, the PTO would be doing the hard work. Would the stock pump still be underpowered you think?

    Offset flail mower on B7100, hydraulics?

    I'm thinking about getting a offset flail mower to use with my B7100, but in order to do that I need to expand the hydraulics on it. Does anyone know if the stock hydraulics pump on a B7100 is powerful enough to operate the 3pt hitch and a 2-channel implement simultaneously? Or do I need to fit...

    4WD B7100 mismatched tires

    It's a minute amount under, which I know is not ideal. But it's the best I can do without changing all the tires. (As I said it used to be a substantial amount under)

    4WD B7100 mismatched tires

    Truck tires aren't a bad idea! The 6.00-12 tires I'm getting are 'car' tires, I don't know why the sizing format is different though (maybe they are meant for classic cars).. but they are closer to the right RC than the next regular 'car' tire size at 155/80 R12.

    4WD B7100 mismatched tires

    Thanks! I wouldn't dream of engaging the 4WD on a paved surface, it will be used in the pasture mostly, which is very level (as is almost everywhere here in The Netherlands :p) so even then it will probably be in 2WD a lot of the time. I think this combination of 9.00-16 in the back and...

    4WD B7100 mismatched tires

    Looking into this some more, I think that combination would give a 0.23% lag. Now I know this is not ideal, but I don't think it will be a disaster either. It should be an improvement over what was on it anyway, which I calculated must have been a 7.7% lag. 6.50-12 tires would be ideal, but...

    4WD B7100 mismatched tires

    Hi, thanks. I just did the measurement and calculation and got 2607mm (~102.6", sorry.. I'm a metric guy:D) Divided bij 1.42 that makes 1835mm (~72.2") to look for in the front tires. I did some looking around and that's not gonna be easy to find.. :( Closest I could find are some 6.00-12...

    4WD B7100 mismatched tires

    Another thing I'm running into is that I can't find specs for the 9.00-16 rear tires, is there a way to get a good calculation for the rolling circumference?

    4WD B7100 mismatched tires

    I only got my B7100 recently, and it came with turf tires. Now one of the front tires is flat, the rubber is badly cracked too.. so I need new front tires. Now I've been looking into which tires I need, and I figured out that the current tires are mismatched. The turf tires the manual says you...

    B7100 engine oil capacity

    Mine is still firmly stuck on the rod, I even compared it to a picture of a new one to see if the plug was is the right position. (It is) I'm digging around the web a bit, and I seem to run into two different oil capacities for a B7100. One source says 3.9l (4.1 qts) and another says 3.1l (3.3...

    B7100 engine oil capacity

    There was no water in the oil and it starts ok. I'm getting about 20-25 psi at idle. Are you thinking gunked up coolant/oil in the engine? Because I doubt that's the issue.

    B7100 engine oil capacity

    I was changing the oil on my B7100, drained the old oil and put in 3.9 liters (4.1 qts) as per manual. I checked the dipstick and it was way overfilled, removed about a liter of oil and now it's filled to the top mark of the dipstick. But now is should only be filled with about 2.9 liters of oil...

    I have a european version of the B7100 and where those wires come out of the loom is the same place the wiring for the rear of the tractor come out of the loom on mine.
