Ok I need some help please! My 245 is paired with the 232 loader front drive hydraulic pump. This is setup with the flex shaft. I don't know how the shaft connects to the engine but I believe I just either sheared off a pin or spun the splines. Either way, the shaft is free spinning on the engine side where I can't see anything and I've got no loader functions..obviously.
How do I fix this?? The loader is on the ground. I would love to do away with the front pump and power the loader off the tractor but I thought I remembered somewhere reading that this is not possible on the 245.
I've seen similar massey's with a plate removed under the seat and lines coming from some sort of valve body. My tractor has the plate. I do not have any remotes on the tractor.
Questions:
How do I remove the flex shaft from the pump and engine to fix this problem?
Can the loader be powered from the tractor so I can do away with the front pump all together?
Photos attached of what I'm up against. Of course this failed in the middle of a project.
As always thank you for all of your input, advice, suggestions, etc!
