    Snow blower break shear bolts under light load.

    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 :)

    Draining coolent on X900

    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?

    Anyone have tips on removing a loaded rear R1 on a Grand L?

    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...
