    300 U hydraulic DEAD ?

    oh yeah I had forgotten about that !!! what a ROYAL P.I.T.A. to pull that and check it. My fluid is not milky just like creamed coffee. There should be no crap in the system ( from where?), I have pulled it and cleaned it twice. Can that screen be back flushed with air pressure?

    300 U hydraulic DEAD ?

    tractor runs like a top Starts up quickly, runs dependable -maybe a tad slow on the governor maintaining rpm-but nothing to complain about. BUT, every once in awhile there is a screeching sound and the engine bogs down and it is gone. It has done this for about 15 years I've had this machine...

    300 U hydraulic DEAD ?

    Greetings all - My 300 U hydraulic system does not seem to be working at all. I raise the handle to lift, and generally nothing happens. Once in a while it will lift the draw bar. I looked in the tank under the seat and see no movement of fluid at all (peeking in through fill hole). Over...

    2pt-3pt conversion ? on 300 U

    all you need is an anchor for the top link. I have the top part on the machine - rock shaft ? for toplink hookup. All the equipment have toplink hitch point as well. so I think I'm good to go is this maybe better? its cheaper

    2pt-3pt conversion ? on 300 U

    Cub149 -- YES That is similar to what I was thinking about making/modifying. I was thinking of a bolt across the top to close the hole. I can weld one up. Great minds think alike. Anyplace I could buy something like those?

    2pt-3pt conversion ? on 300 U

    thanks D Red. I think the whole "fast hitch" thing is a myth. Mt two bottom plow will "fast hitch" if all is on hard dead level ground. Otherwise it don't line up and requires a couple trips on and off the machine to get it on. Same with the 2pt adpt prongs. Unless in the sockets they flop...

    2pt-3pt conversion ? on 300 U

    On my 300 U I have the 2pt fast hitch.and the 3pt conversion for top link. I have a couple sets of 3pt adapters that go in the 2pt sockets. Problem is the the 2pt "Y" frame is rigid and will not allow flex to hook up 3pt stuff. For example a simple flat draw bar can't be mounted unless I pull...

    what is this?

    I assume it uses the tractor hydraulic to lift, then stick the block thing in. Lots of parts missing I think. Also think there is about zero chacne of finding missing parts - maybe make them?

    what is this?

    this item is for sale local. It has a clear Ferguson name plate in lower right corner. It can be seen well detailed in another photo. As I just got a Fergy this summer, I am very curious about this. Is it possibly somekind of jack/lift to change tires? or what? thanks to all d

    M stuck engine

    OK update -tractor lives outdoors, has rain cap on muffler, plastic jug most time. Tranny starter all fine. I generally use hand crank -engine is stuck. Engine is tight-rebuilt in mid '80's at ag school from crank out. Probably not 300 hours since. I will look for a bore scope, should do...

    sediment bowl fix

    OK to clarify, the glass bowl is held in/up/snug by a pot metal finger tight nut in a bail. These seem to strip out so leakage occurs. I was told it is a proprietary thread so can't be cobbled with a brass nut,etc. The gasket on the top of the bowl is the standard screen that fits in the...
