Hi guys,
I've been using my B5100 most days since I got it back together. For a small tractor it has great heart.
To that point ...I probably shouldn't have but I fitted a 1m rotavator to it. ..this rotavator had the tines cut so they are straight not curved and only about 2.5m long.it probably original needs a 18hp.to run but with the tine adaptation done it ran away for me.
It was all going great until recently. I've noticed a slapping type chatter noise from somewhere between the clutch and the gear box when the rotavator is running and under a bit of pressure. When it's going back over soft ground there's no abnormal noise. Any pointers for me..I know to really investigate I need to split the clutch housing from the gear box but I want to know what to expect first. I could post a video not sure it will it show much as the noise of the engine and the rotavator running will be loud anyway..but I can if people think it would help diagnose.
