    Look what came today

    I ditto that completely. It's all I think about these days! best regards to all my gentle colleagues in orange. Like I told the wife "honey do" chores that need the tractor will get done first!

    Washed my "new" B7100 and now won't start??

    Check the air filter, a soaked air filter (element) will stop the air flow. good luck and best regards all my gentle colleagues in orange! db

    LT720 loader questions

    Thanks guys! It is a single lever control, not what I would have called a joystick. I will try the float as Traildust describes it today and see how it works. I have the 4 way bucket and the float option should be handy for final leveling. Best regards to my gentle coleagues in orange. db

    LT720 loader questions

    I am starting to use my, new to me, L35. I don't have a lot of experience with tractors so am learning as I go. I have the operators manual for the tractor but it does not include the loader. 1. Is there a float position? If so, how is it selected? 2. There is a little lock plate that can...

    L35 Maint question (s)

    Bout time to update and close off this thread. Well getting that seal proved a little more difficult than planned. I ordered it over 2 weeks ago and they assured me it was in stock in Markam (near Toronto and usually overnight by Purolator to here). After 4 days I inquired and was informed...

    replacement cylinders for 1630 loader

    I am new here with limited knowlege, but for what it is worth, here is a recent personal experience of mine. I bought a well used L35 that I knew had leaking cylinders on the 4 in 1 bucket (2 1/2" ID). I took them off and dissasembled one with an idea of rebuilding it myself. I went out...

    Another newbi ?

    I think mine is about the same. Always seems to be doing something a little different. The light is on quite often after the tractor is running. I am concerned that I am using up the glow plugs. Where is that controller, under the dash? regards db

    L35 Maint question (s)

    Thanks for the great diagram! No, it is B on the diagram. Looks like a little easier task than A. There is a little clip/collar shown in the parts book which may be a little tricky. I will get it apart in the morning and order the parts on my way through town on wednesday. Thanks again and...

    L35 Maint question (s)

    Well I went to town today and got some gear lube, got home and drained the old stuff and topped up with new. Noticed a pretty good drip from the L front outer axle seal. At least that explains where most of the old oil went. Got it jacked up now and going out to pull it apart. From looking at...

    L35 Maint question (s)

    Thanks Pat, you get up early!!!! Rain here today but supposed to clear up as the day wears on. I will change it out for gear oil, and if no leaks or creaks show up over the next little while, I think I will change it over to a synthetic. What a great and supportive forum!!!!!! Thanks and...

    L35 Maint question (s)

    Thanks so much, I really appreciate the effort. Looks like mine has gear lube in it, but the level seems quite low. Proper oil level in the front end is my most pressing problem, but I also had posted a question about the action of the glow plug circuit/light. Hope you had a great Easter...

    Another newbi ?

    Thanks Bulldog that is a help. It tends to get pretty cold here but you would not know it from the weather lately. I am still concerned with the action of the light. Even when the tractor has been running a while, sometimes the light is on. Sometimes it is on as soon as I turn on the key...

    L35 Maint question (s)

    I see there are lots of lookers but no one has yet offered any feedback. I want to use the tractor and it seems that the axle/diff is low on oil. Appreciate if someone could confirm how to establish the proper level. I have some gear lube here and will top up now and worry about changing out...
