Why does the manual say to change the fuel filter when the fuel tank is below 1/2? Just trying to gain a bit more knowledge and I could not find any explanation. Also, I bought a new filter so instead of cleaning the old one I think I will put the new one in and clean the old one for a spare...

Is this the one you were thinking about: http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=31923

I thought AC and heat were high cotton but this is beyond cool, plus the painted tips, nice job. I have very little use for forks but a camera on the snowplow would be really neat, picture may be all white but still cool.

Thanks for the tips and precautions. Luckily so far have used it sparingly but probably did not wait for the wheel to stop spinning so that is something to be aware of.

On the B2650HSDC there is a little metal rod sticking out of the floor. I knew what it was supposed to be from reading the manual but had never used it. Got into a situation on uneven ground and when a wheel started spinning instead of putting it in 4wd I just stepped on that little rod and it...

That is why I keep my F250, it has pulled a lot of stuff out of trouble. This past winter I got both 8Ns, ATV and the F250 stuck in a snow bank, luckily I had the F150 and used it to extract the F250 and it pulled out the rest. Knew the limitations but took too many chances, guess we all get...

In the mid 30 hours now so will definitely service before the snow flies. I have a tendency to break things when it gets cold. Thanks for the input, wondered if 50 hours was a magic number or just close would do.

Thanks for confirming that, so far so good, less than 20 hours from my 50hr service, wanted to make sure I was looking at it the right way. Ready to do some brush hogging to put a few more hours on. Really want to do the 50 before the snow flies, I like to go into winter with all my...

Simple question: When do you check fluids, especially hydraulic? When the machine is cold or warmed up and why?

I did quite a bit of research and landed on the B2650HSDC, right size, heated/AC cab, etc. I have the same loader and also got the 6' snow blade. You may want to look at some hooks, I went with Ken's hooks, he is on the forum and he has some good products. You can look at some of the set ups in...

When the guy delivered my B2650 he said it needed weight on the back to perform adequately. I have a Rhino blade, heavy duty, and most of my "work" was done with it on. I took it off and went to do some fencing. First I tried to pull an old anchor wire out of the ground and the back of the...

Thanks, good to have on hand even though will not get too involved since it is still under warranty, will come in handy for sure.

Years ago I had a mechanic tell me to only use premium/high test gas in anything I ran. Later I heard that the higher the octane the less ethanol will be in it so that it can obtain the octane level and sometimes no ethanol at all. I listened to him and no matter what gas I bought it was the...

Is there a WSM for the B2650HSDC? I tried to search that website but could not find it.

Husqvarna lawn tractor and Stihl weed eater, both are good.

NEPA, that looks like it could hurt someone. Especially if the wife found out I invested in that piece of equipment, she was not that happy about the new tractor, lol.

I remember when I got my first 8N, I thought I had it made and they did serve me well for many years. But things change, we get older, and it is nice to have a few creature comforts that we have worked for. I am fairly deliberate and waited until I found what I wanted. Did not know about the...

Today I was out mowing with my Husqvarna riding mower and I realized it did not have power steering!!! I have only had it for 6 years or so, lol. My B2650 has spoiled me in a short amount of time; power steering, 4wd, AC, heat, adjustable seat, etc, etc.

Well I never knew they made something like those. Will have to check them out, thanks.

I don't mind the dirt but could do without the pigeon k rap. Dose them with pellet lead when I get a shot but they love to roost in my barn over the tractor and ATVs.
