    floating bucket on FEL 1630?

    I have a 1630 and it does have a float position but getting there is kinda "wonky" at least on my well worn example. To use it I have to go all the way "down" and then ease off it a bit and it floats pretty good. I believe this is an actual function for these loaders but the well worn goofy...

    attaching post hole digger

    I have a B7200 and a Woods post hole digger for it. I cannot comprehend how the ROPS could interefere with mounting a similar PHD. Could you post a pic?

    B7200 w/1630 loader Hydraulic Question

    7 Months later and I'm still having trouble with this thing. It's been sitting pretty much all summer but today I wanted to dig one post hole. I have a pretty heavy Bush Hog brand post hole digger. I put it on with a 9" auger and dug less than 1' and was totally unable to raise it back up. Soil...

    B7200 w/1630 loader Hydraulic Question

    I did indeed take apart that protrusion. It did not have any allen screw to adjust but I DID find another spring with 1 shim behind it - I rooted around in my random hardware department till I came up with an appropriate size washer and put it in with the original shim -viola- about 300# more...

    B7200 w/1630 loader Hydraulic Question

    Bringing up an old thread. I shimmed the hydraulic relief spring beneath the seat on the right side. Added 2 shims which should have brought the pressure up a couple hundred pounds but I see no change at all. Is there a relief valve in the pump itself? Thanks

    Anyone have an idea or device for 3pt anti-flyup???

    Not sure if you have a Tractor Supply Co. store nearby but I do and they sell drawbars for around $25.00. Way faster and easier than "homebrew" and likely cheaper too. Plus, you wont end up explaining how some jury rigged deviced failed to a liability Judge if the hayride goes south.

    B7200 w/1630 loader Hydraulic Question

    B7200 w/1630 loader Hydraulic Question " Update Still Having Issues" I have a B7200 with a 1630 loader. The loader doesn't seem to have the "oomph" it ought to. So, I Teed a pressure guage in the supply line to the loader control valve. When stalled I'm seeing 1350 lbs. I have seen numerous...

    1630 Loader on B7200

    I think I have bigger problems with this machine. I dug the first hole with my nifty new post hole digger today and my 3 point lacked the oomph to withdraw the auger. I'm really kind of dissapointed that this thing couldnt pull a 9" auger bit out of the ground. But, the oddball bucket behavior...

    1630 Loader on B7200

    It's more than the slack in the linkage. I can actually lift the lip of the bucket up at least 8 or 10 inches. It seems the only resistance to this is the actual weight of the bucket. This is a new to me tractor that has been "run hard and put away wet" Everything works although I'm not sure its...

    1630 Loader on B7200

    I notice that I can curl my loader by hand. When the loader bucket is sitting a few feet above the ground if I grab the lip of the bucket I can easily curl it up. It seems to me that I shouldn't be able to do this. Thoughts? Thanks, Jay

    replacement cylinders for 1630 loader

    I couldn't care less if my loader has Kubota cylinders or not. For about the same money I believe I can probably buy brand new cylinders. This gets me new everything not just seals, likely a warranty that I wont get if I rebuild what I have plus I don't have to learn how to rebuild them...

    replacement cylinders for 1630 loader

    After checking with my local dealer and finding that the rebuild kits for the lift cylinders on my 1630 loader will cost $86.00 each. I just cannot stomach the idfea of paying that much for a handful of sealsd & O rings. I think I might go a different way. Has anyone ever replaced their...

    Truck tires on a B7200

    I appreciate the input. I should have specified this is a 2WD tractor so maintaining the exact same diameter isn't an issue. And, of course this is all about frugality! Useable truck tires are less than $20.00 each. I've never even seen used tractor tires in 16" and if I could afford new ones...

    B7200 Stuck in Reverse

    Shifter issue is exactly waht it was. A snap ring that keeps tension on the spring that keeps tension on the shift lever "ball" unsnapped it self. Reinstalled it and alls well. On a related note, How does on replace the shifter boot? It seems too small to go over the ball on the lower end and...
