    Kubota L2550 Steering Slop / Play

    I remember studying this post when the steering went out on my L2550. Didn't have access to a MIG welder, so went another route--bought a metric bushing that fit exactly in the hole, sized the inside of the bushing with a 1/2-inch drill bit, then cut a piece of hardened 1/2-inch bolt to length...

    case 730 hydraulic suction screen

    Just curious--what did you find?

    case 730 hydraulic suction screen

    No--didn't remove the PTO. Remember that this is all on an 831, but the book is the same for a 730. Previous owners may have installed some sort of spin-on conversion kit on your tractor, but I wouldn't know that. The factory version is this: BELOW the PTO shaft and just above the rear...

    case 730 hydraulic suction screen

    A couple of additions here--the instructions for accessing this place are in the Case manual under "Hydraulic Control System Filter." The manual doesn't show the pickup tube back behind the filter, but it's there. The other issue was that I had to make up a couple of little wire clips to keep...

    case 730 hydraulic suction screen

    On my 831, the hydraulics completely stopped working. The screen inside the filter housing was clogged. The cleanable, re-usable filter on my machine, and probably on yours, is below the PTO shaft--three bolts and a housing you have to pry on to get loose. The filter can be cleaned in diesel...

    Case-o-Matic in 831C

    So--when all was said and done, it turned out the screen on the pickup tube of the Case-o-Matic pump was completely clogged with debris. Handy little devil to get at, as long as you don't mind pulling the pump housing... At any rate, the old 831 is up and running better than any time in the last...

    Case-o-Matic in 831C

    Will try the pressure gauge and let you all know how things turned out. I really suspect the spool valve is correct--I imagine in overfilling the case, I floated a bit of junk that got pulled in. Thanks all.

    Case-o-Matic in 831C

    Thanks, guys--the pressure gauge, along with all the other gauges, is not functional. The fluid did not come out the filler neck, but did dribble out of the housing between COM and engine above where the normal level was supposed to be. The filter was not too bad, though the element was actually...

    Case-o-Matic in 831C

    Calling all experts--I recently bought an 831C from my dad, who had rarely used the beast in the twelve years he owned it. The owner"s manual he turned over was for an 830 and made no mention of the Case-o-Matic transmission, the hood decal was for an 830, and so forth. In any case, my...
