when I take the PTO off I can sping the auger, it takes effort so that's why I think mage the chain links are binding, maybe there is rust on the inside of the links, enough to cause drag......I'm clutching at straws here :)

Dave it's on a New Holland Boomer 50, 50 engine HP, hydro unit so it is a low-power tractor for a blower that size but here in Alberta we get powdery snow and I can creep along at whatever speed necessary. It's 540 rpm. It's and 840G Farmking The owner's manual FK313 092010 snow a 5/16 grade 5...

That's for sure...e

Hello all. Winter has arrived and I am having trouble with my snowblower. It's a 7 ft Farmking, 540 PTO, with a gearbox. When I run the unit empty there is no vibration in the PTO shaft and in the impeller. There is a slight wobble in the auger (7 ft wide) maybe and 1/8 in up and down at 540...

Thanks, Russell, I really appreciate your clarification. I just could not get my brain around what the manual was illustrating. Now if you could only HELP the Broncos on Thursday Night Football.....

I am almost embarrassed to ask this but how do I drain the coolant from my X900 as per Kubota's manual? This is on page 81 of the ops manual. What are they referring to, whatever it is I can't find it? I have drained the system before by pulling the lower rad hose, but what is this?

Thanks, this is the type of real-world experience I was looking for. From what the turbo suppliers say the performance would 35-50 % better. I'll keep the $3000 in my pocket.

Mike I saw this and that's what started my thinking. I looking for real world experience from some one who has done it, example any mechanical failures or operational issues such as over heating.

Hi, I am wondering if anyone out there has installed a turbo on an 900X . My model is a 2017 and I would like more power for hill climbing, as well our altitude is 3500 ft so a turbo would help. I wonder if the rest of the machine, hyd pumps, transmission final drives, cooling system will...

Hi, I just went through that on a 16.9-26 on a New Holland tractor. I would not do it again, better to call a tire shop, they can repair the tire without removing it from the tractor. It's worth a couple of hundred dollars to prevent damage to lug nuts or being injured or killed by the tire...

The title says it all! It's a very good day.

I had exactly the same issue, I got under the unit and tighten every bolt I could find (double check the exhaust) and the problem was solved.
