    Hydraulics are too fast, or Im too slow

    When moving the stick to the right, you need to go past the detent for more control. If you want even more speed control, you can install inline flow controls on the hoses or cylinders.

    Attachment Hydraulic Hose Pressure Relief

    I don't agree when it comes to looping the two ports of a cylinder together. Let's say we disconnect both hoses of a cylinder from the system and the pressure of the fluid in both hoses are at 0 psi while it's in the shade on a cool morning. I connect both hoses together. Pressure is still at...

    M8540 blower resistor alternatives

    Actually, this sounds like the opposite of a bad resistor. Typically a blower motor resistor pack has high to low resistance for low to high fan speeds. The highest fan speed is usually full battery voltage, no resistor. Edit- found the M8540 WSM. It is what I suspected- for high speed, the...

    110v AC motor/appliance start up monitor

    Does the sump pump discharge to daylight and do you have a trail camera? Put a mini paddle wheel in the discharge path and focus the trail camera on the paddle wheel.

    Kind of a serious question for my friends in the GWN or any one that knows

    Doesn't apply to Canadians who are simply looking to visit the US, only those who need non-immigrant visas. Besides, that's going to take a long while to actually implement. From a travel blogger- The bill calls for the introduction of a new $250 “visa integrity fee,” which is supposed to...

    Is this to good to be true?

    I reported that website to the domain registrar weeks ago as it is a scam. -Woodbury isn't spelled "Woodburry". -The real business at that address is Woodbury Tractor Co. https://www.woodburytractor.com/

    Tractor under water

    Drain everything and pull the injectors and glow plugs out before even trying to crank the engine. Replace the air filter and secondary filter if they were underwater. Inspect the air intake for any silt. Also before trying to start it, I'd let the tractor sit out in the sun for several days to...

    A question

    Celebrating the end of slavery is much more of a reason for a federal holiday than the birth of a president, aka Washington's Birthday.

    M6800 Cab Roof with AC ripped off

    An electrically powered AC will draw substantial current, far more than your tractor's alternator can put out. Firefight100's eBay example says 300-800 watts power consumption which is around 60 amps at the upper end.

    long range weather procrastinators

    Three winters ago we had the third snowiest winter on record going back 140 years. I had enough of using my ATV w/plow so I bought my tractor, plow, and blower from an auction later that year. The last two winters were significantly below average snowfall, didn't use the tractor at all. In...
