    Freeman Loader Cylinder Leaking around threads

    If I understand the geometry of the parts you described then either teflon tape or loctite ought to do the trick. Clean the threads thoroughly and apply the loctite to the threads. if the threads are pipe threads (threaded on a taper) then teflon tape might be preferred. I doubt that you...

    Measuring the Lower and Upper Link Points

    our point is correct with respect to ground engaging implements. This is exactly what I do with the grader blade on my tractor. Lengthening the top link makes it more aggressive when going forward and less aggressive going backward. But not all implements need that kind of adjustment. In...

    Measuring the Lower and Upper Link Points

    So I clicked reply but I have no idea if this goes to Dennis as a PM or if this gets posted in the thread.

    Measuring the Lower and Upper Link Points

    Three of my posts back I mentioned a file that I had created that allows calculation of how the implement will move depending on the length of the upper and lower links and the position of the pivots on the tractor and implement. I have revised it so that it contains some self explanatory...

    Measuring the Lower and Upper Link Points

    The copy of the spec that I found, that was posted here somewhere on this website stated that it did not control exactly where the pivot points were placed on various tractor brands or modlels. Without that infomration the results will vary. By following such a specification the implement...

    Measuring the Lower and Upper Link Points

    For my subsoil plow the "foot" is set to a 10 degree down at the toe angle, and the top face is 10 degrees more than that for a total of 20. Since a 3 point hitch like mine cannot apply down pressure (can any of them?) I have to depend on those angles to pull the plow into the soil. I can run...

    Measuring the Lower and Upper Link Points

    Dennis, I think that you are the one that best got my point. I was not trying to tell anyone how to go hook up a general purpose implement but rather was trying to provide information as to how to: -- design the attachment to an implement -- and how to modify attachment to an implement --...

    Measuring the Lower and Upper Link Points

    I do not know how others do it but When making attaching an implement with a 3 point hitch, but getting the location of the Lower Link point (where the lower link attaches to the tractor) and Upper Link Point (where the top link attaches to the tractor) can be a real pain, especially the...

    Fogging Tachometer / Hour Meter

    Well I got the tachometer / hour meter reinstalled no thanks to the tractor being designed to accommodate small Japanese hands. Getting a US standard size hand between the fuel tank and Instrument panel while holding a tiny nut and tiny lock washer and trying to put it on a threaded stud...

    Fogging Tachometer / Hour Meter

    Ok so I sort of promised you some pictures. This is the tachometer/Hour-meter unit. It is 2 inches in diameter. As mentioned previously I decided to go with putting in a vent hole to prevent the vacuum from damaging the unit. To do that I wanted to be careful not to damage the insides and...

    Fogging Tachometer / Hour Meter

    hanks for the suggestion. I think I may use a variation of it. I have made a vacuum chamber out of 3" PVC pipe and a little experimentation with my compressed air driven Bernoulli effect vacuum pump draws a vacuum so quickly I was afraid that it might pop out the lens. However a small vent...

    Fogging Tachometer / Hour Meter

    ll,cut you some slack showcrop, I can sound like a bit of a curmudgeon[b:57a3155d6c][color=darkblue:57a3155d6c][1][/color:57a3155d6c][/b:57a3155d6c] sometimes myself. I was trying to assess how much of problem the matter might be. Your answer did address my query in the original post "How...

    Fogging Tachometer / Hour Meter

    After running for just a few minutes today the Tachometer/Hour meter suddenly fogged up and I could barely determine the RPM to an approximation. After a bit longer the fog turned to droplets that obscured the meter even worsel This is a first after a couple of years of operation of the...

    Front Wheel Grease Seals, Ford 1510

    A.-- Does anyone know the generic seal number for front wheel grease seals for a 2 wheel drive Ford 1510 tractor built in 1985? B.-- Where is the best place to get such seals at a good price? C.-- Did the Japanese build in any surprises I should know about, (My manual shows a snap ring and...
