    M7040 Hydraulic Filters Change - Anyone Used The Suction Method to Reduce the Mess

    I use that method when changing the hydraulic filter on my L3940. It works fine and no worries about too much vacuum. You don't need to use that method when changing the HST filter (if you have an HST filter).

    New grapple design with no 3rd function needed.

    I ordered the Anbo Clasp-It mechanical grapple after reading about it on this forum. To install a 3rd function on my particular tractor would require removing the right rear tire and fender, maybe even the seat, to get to the hydraulic connections. I'm a one man operation so I decided against...

    Stationary PTO

    Well it turns out my "Seat Tilt Switch" was bad. I tested it according to the WSM and found out it wasn't working. I ordered a new one (pricey thing too) and installed today. Now it works like it should when engaging the stationary PTO. Problem solved.

    Stationary PTO

    I tried that but it didn't work either. I think I'm going to stop by the dealer and ask them. Thanks anyway for your comment.

    Stationary PTO

    When I follow the instructions below to engage the stationary PTO, the engine will still shut off. What am I doing wrong? Thank you.

    L3301 Fuel Guage

    As stated above, it may not be getting a good ground. I was having the same problem and added a ground wire and now it works as it should.

    L3901 PTO will not come up to speed

    You said everything worked fine last week when using the mower. Just curious, what was your engine speed (tach rpm) when it was working fine? I have an L3940 and I have to run my engine speed at 2640 rpm to get 540 pto rpm.

    rats in wires

    I had rats chew into my UTV wires. I repaired them and used "rodent anti-chew deterrent tape" (do an Amazon search). I also put out some poison rat chunks in dog/cat proof boxes. So far, that has worked.

    Wheel Hub Pin

    I'm posting this for a friend who owns a B7500. He says the rear wheel hub pin on each side keeps breaking allowing the rear wheels to move freely in and out. He sent me some pics which looks like a bolt is used instead of the actual part (63733-17270). Could the use of the bolt instead of...

    $4.80 per gallon for ORD when I last purchased on 5/17/26. You can find it at a few retail facilities here in north Louisiana.

    Trailer length for L3902 w/loader ???

    I have an L3940 with loader. I also own 16 ft. and 20 ft. trailers. The tractor is too much weight for the 16 ft. trailer and it will sway on you if you are not careful. I always trailer my L3940 on the 20 ft. trailer. Be safe and go with a 20 ft. trailer.

    The time had come

    The EuroGrip tires look great and also a great price. They should last you a long time. I replaced all four of mine a couple of months ago. I went back with Titan Trac Loader II. The originals still had good tread, but were cracking and getting dry rotted. BTW....your property looks nice...
