    L3710 GST clutch operation

    I recently acquired an L3710 GST, and although I've only used HST in the past, I am getting used to the GST pretty easily. The previous owner used the clutch to switch between forward and reverse, so I faithfully pressed the clutch so far to move the shifter to neutral, then forward or...

    B7800 diesel oil

    I am about to change the motor oil on my (new to me) B7800 and after reading about oil recommendations on the web I bought a gallon of Mobil Delvac Super Heavy Duty 1300 15W40 oil. When I look at the WSM (which I should have done first) it shows 10W30 or 10W40. Is that plain old motor oil...

    how to remove bearing on Modern AG 5ft shredder

    Hello everyone, I bought a Modern AG Competitor 5 ft shredder with a Kubota B7800HSD (my first real tractor!), and when I revved up the shredder the first time I noticed dark gear oil coming past the seal where the PTO shaft connects to the shredder gearbox. There is a good bit of play in the...
