    Huber Warco Maintainer Torque converter

    I'm adding pics of the ID tags on the torque converter, one of which calls out the HuberWarco part number 1M-4051 . But my operator/parts manual already lists the Torque converter as made by Fuller, model 12-T , and the Transmission as Fuller Model 5A-330. I also am adding the drawing of the...

    Huber Warco Maintainer Torque converter

    I now attached a photo of the Operator Manual page that describes the Torque Converter. I use my machine on my .6 mile long gravel driveway. It's just the right size machine for that 1-2 times per year to grade it. Then about every 10 years, when putting down new gravel, it does a nice job...

    Huber Warco Maintainer Torque converter

    The Owner/Service manual says they added the Torque Converter to the design of Maintainer so that it had a smoother operation, less jerky action. The torque converter is a "fluid coupler" between the engine and the tranny/clutch, so absorbs shocks/vibration I guess, and less shock when clutch...

    Huber Warco Maintainer Torque converter

    Can anyone tell me how/where to check the fluid level in my 1962 Huber Warco Maintainer model 52 (belly grader blade type tractor) .... I have the owners/parts book, but it doesn't explain where or how to check the level. On the left AND on the right I see two 1/4" pipe plugs each side ...

    3020 won't crank

    Of course for this "tractor of a friend" (78 year old widow, she doesn't even know how to drive it), it isn't something that will get used more than a couple times a year, for 2-4 years, then sold, so I won't be working on it any more than needed to keep her happy, and her memories alive.

    3020 won't crank

    Hydraulic problem solved. On the left side of the dash are 3 levers. One is for the 3 point, the other two are supposedly for rear remote hydraulic outlets. But the tractor has only one rear hose outlet pair. The control valves on the loader frame has the supply return hoses going up under the...

    3020 won't crank

    Thank you Jim. I returned to the tractor yesterday, replaced battery, so now starts/runs OK. John's widow found the tractor operator's manual, so am reading that, and it showed where hydraulic dipstick and fill place was. The level was down to the bottom of the "Safe" line, so I added a gallon...

    3020 won't crank

    For that LH large lever, it wouldn't move. I wondered what that spring-loaded knob was for, now you've enlightened me ..... thank you. How about the RH side lever, is that for the PTO? Regarding the plumbing of the hydraulic hoses for the loader two control valve levers, I will have to look...

    3020 won't crank

    OK, here's the update, I returned to the tractor (10 miles from here): 1) jumpered the clutch interlock, made no difference, still no cranking 2) Looked for second battery (none) and looked for transmission neutral safety switch on right side, and found none (likely exists only on Diesel like...

    3020 won't crank

    ob asked if it's a Synchro Range or a Powershift, and it is A POWERSHIFT, which he says has a second safety switch on it, which I'm not sure where that is ...... QUESTION #1: is it, on the right hand side, that large flat sheet metal looking footpedal, or ? Regarding the clutch footpedal...
