    Brand new to farming/Tractors

    As has been said, read the Op manual before you go any further. Both the shifting and the PTO should probably be done at lowest RPM's. Letting it roll a little while going from low to med might be advised. Since it sounds like you really like the tractor you might want to do like sheepfarmer...

    Lubrication of LA765 FEL on L4701

    Thanks. Looks like on mine its 5 small bolts and 2 larger bolts. I found the link you were talking about. https://www.messicks.com/ku/93311 Had to than click on parts catalogue and the BO1300 Control Lever is one of the first things that pop up.

    Lubrication of LA765 FEL on L4701

    Thanks. I was worried about taking out all five bolts because I figured some of them held the valve body on. I will try screwing it up tomorrow.

    Lubrication of LA765 FEL on L4701

    Thanks for the input guys. I probably should not have used WD40 as an example of spray on lubricant (but it does have some good lubricating properties for certain things). Trapper Bob: I initially thought the same thing but realized the manual I am using is strictly for the LA765 FEL so would...

    Lubrication of LA765 FEL on L4701

    I am probably just stupid but pg21 of my manual says: "Lubricate all grease fittings every 10 hours of operation. Also lubricate joints of control lever linkage every 10 hours" They have a good diagram of where all the grease fittings are but do not show how to lubricate the control lever...

    L4701 only clicks

    Might be time to try (with the key off and gear in neutral ) going straight to the starter with jumpers and see if it turns over.

    L2501 oil change at 200 or 400 hours?

    Absolutely a great video. Most people wont watch it because of its length. I have a 1986 Subaru with 285K miles on the engine. Car is rusting up, radio and other things don't work well anymore but because of staying on top of oil changes the engine still runs great.

    Mice

    I know this will get some disagreement but our 1932 AC model M only gets used once a year. Critters love to build in the engine area. We put some diesel in a water bottle, squeeze the contents on the areas they build nests in, Seems to keep them from coming back for a year. The fuel...
