Thanks much.

Took apart an older Howse 5' rotary cutter. The shear bolt is bent but not sheared, making me think the bolt may be a grade or two above what's recommended. What was there has an unusual marking (at least to me) on it. Can anyone identify this bolt marking? Thanks. Florida Al

Thanks to all. Wanted a little reassurance all was OK. I got it. :rolleyes:

My L2500 stays at the "farm." Went to check things out and looked at all the fluids, blew the radiator screen, etc. Cranked up, dismounted and started to put the side panels back on while it warmed. One of the bolts that fastens the panel surrounding the engine was really dry and difficult to...

It appears to me the Quality Control Manager needs some re-training. Wonder what happened?

TomAce82, I'm smiling as I type because you sound just Like I feel. I've got my first tractor in 40 years, and my very first ag tractor. Except for some "fun work" I'm still doing what you're talking about doing, replacing or changing things. Yesterday was the hydraulic fluid and a new...

Great pictures. Thanks.

Recently bought an L2500DT. 475 hours on the clock. I've changed oil & filter, air filter, coolant and greased everything the book mentions. I'm about to change the transmission/hydraulic fluid. The book says to use Super UDT fluid. Should I go to Super UDT2 or stick with the basic Super...

Pau7220, Could you send me a picture of the underside, please? Or several pictures showing the details? I'm having a hard time visualizing what you did. I have the same canopy in the garage and your installation looks great. I'd like to do something similar. Thanks. Florida Al

The lever that engages the PTO shaft is really hard to move. I can't move it by simply pulling or pushing while sitting. I have to sort of hit it with the heel of my hand. Yes, I do have the clutch fully depressed when engaging/disengaging. I don't believe this has cables but I could be in...

Folks, Recently bought an L2500DT to use on my small tree farm/hunting area in South Georgia. I'm installing a used golf cart canopy and want to get the parts before I head out on the 90 mile drive to where the tractor is located. Not realizing I shouldn't weld to the ROPS until I started...

Thanks loads to everyone of you. I opened the 3 injector connections 1.5 to 2 turns. Turned the engine over for a few seconds at a time, stopped seeing bubbles finally from two of the locations. There third injector was not visible without removing the air intake manifold which I REALLY...

Thanks to all, Other suggestions still gratefully accepted. I'll let you know how this goes tomorrow evening.

Thanks. Are the injectors right at the block? Three lines, one running in to each cylinder? (Sorta like where a spark plug would be on an gasoline engine?) Thanks. Alec

First post. Glad to be here. Just bought an L2500DT. The seller had some financial issues and had skimped on maintenance recently. Admitted it needed oil change, greasing, etc. Clock is working and shows 375 hours. Two owners I am told. Grand Dad and the grandson I purchased it from. So I...
