My mx6000 cruise lever will not hold the pedal at speed. It just goes back to nothing. It seems like the lever has lost tension. I glanced under but it was 97 degrees out and I really didnt see how to tighten it. Anyone else ever have this issue? Its still under warranty but I hate to haul it...

Dewalt with LocknLube. I just wish each cartridge was about 3x bigger!

I have a L3600that is experiencing significant blow by out of the PCV hose. I am pretty sure it is from ring wear and scoring. I had an air filter rip and was doing some real dusty work, so I think it sucked in some debris. Still runs good and starts up quickly. I was thinking of rebuilding at...

Maybe they had a run of junk belts. Still not sure what happened to mine, but I was pushing up some heavy brush piles a day or so earlier. I am thinking a stick may have gotten up there and knocked the belt off. The belt may have been riding on the water pump still working. Then it finally...

Thanks, I will try that the next time. I have a CAB, so I think it comes with a larger alternator. I didnt ask for one. Maybe the pulley is bigger and harder to get the belt on. Thanks for the reply.

It sounds like they are saying that you ignored the multiple regen warnings and caused the clog. Once I exhausted (no pun intended) all my attempts to get them to honor the warranty, I think I would look into just bypassing it, if I was going to keep the tractor. Maybe an attorney could...

On my 64 hr MX6000 the alternator belt just came off. Not sure why, but it did. What a royal pain in the butt to get back on. I loosened the alternator, but it didnt give me enough slack to get it on no matter how I tried. I finally got it wedged on and bumped the starter to jump it on. With the...

Thanks, but did you read my last post on how I fixed it?

I finally got around to fixing my lift issue. I tried adjusting the rod and no luck. The problem was the link at the transmission. It was frozen and would barely move. As the arms went up the adjustment rod would just bend. To fix, I removed the access panel under the seat. Removed the rod...

I think I found it.....

On it now! Thanks

I have an older L3600 tractor. This issue has been going on for a while but seems to be getting worse. If I pull the 3 pt lever all the way to lift the box blade the hydraulics will not work. The system is "pressurized". When this happens I cant control the FEL. If I push the 3pt lever down...

In my hands that sounds like a gigantic mess!! I went to Lowes and bought some new 5 gal buckets and I am just going to drain the fluid and put it back in.

Ordered a new pipe today, and I got it beat back enough to stop it from dripping. Tractor has less than 20 hours, so I am going to try and save as much fluid as possible.

Just did the same to mine. Wondering if you had to drain the oil or if you could swap it and lose some fluid. Probably a big mess! Did you need to loosen the filter side or were you able to get the pipe in by removing the two bolts holding the pipe in place. Thanks!
