    T0-35 Governor

    If you need the written information about re-setting the Governor, email me at [email protected] and I will send it to you.It is not straightforward unless you know what you are doing or have some guideance....John

    Starter on TO30

    The starter is an inertia type, that means that the pinion should fly out to engage the Flywheel ring when you apply power to it and it does not matter if it is in the Tractor or in a vise on the Bench, it should work the same. Just make sure that the connections are good when you are testing it...

    TO30 Starter

    It would seem that it is a 12volt starter from how you describe it. I am sure there are plenty on here that would do a swap with you for a 6 volt where they have converted to 12 volt and still using the old 6 volt starter. Often the voltage is stamped in the casing or there is a casting number...

    Plow size

    It will handle that OK it may struggle if you were in clay though 2 bottom 12" would be better. John (UK)

    TO30 Carburator High Idle

    You can unscrew it out completely if you wanted too, there is no stop. The only time it is necessary to adjust it is when you get some surging on the Governor and then you screw it in SLOWLY just enough to damp the surging, that is all it does. This must be done when the engine is running hot...

    TO30 Carburator High Idle

    If the engine will run OK at idle and when you move the throttle it opens up to high revs it is the Governor that is not set correctly or there is something wrong with the actual governor. When you open the throttle, the top of the Governor arm at the back of the Generator should move rear-wards...

    Axle Question

    Yes it is correct, the bearings are tapered and when you fasten everything together in the axle the bearings are pulled into the taper, and the ends of the Axle shafts butt up against each other. You can shim the Bearing and housing using shims and gaskets quite safely, it is correct.If it was...

    Hydraulic Pressure

    Depends on what model of tractor you have but unless it is a very early tractor it should be at least 2000psi at 2000 engine rpm. When new a valve would possibly be 2200psi. You must have the lift arms tied down so they cannot lift not just a heavy implement. A heavy implement must be heavier...

    PTO

    You don't say if your tractor has a dual clutch or a single clutch. Either way it is a Clutch adjustment that is required. The PTO lever jumping out of gear is due to the plunger that locks the gear lever selector in position does not have enough spring pressure or the plunger and the lever at...

    TE20 water pump question

    Original Pumps may or may not have had grease Zerks fitted, it depended on who manufactured the Pump, it did vary, most had a pre-packed bearing and required no grease. It would seem that your did have a Pump that could be greased if it is as you describe. Personally I prefer having a Greaser...

    Front wheel bearings on a TO20

    If the bearings are as bad as you say you may find that the Stub Axles are worn now and could require replacing. Check and adjust the bearings regularly and make sure that the hubs are full of CLEAN grease it can get expensive if you neglect maintenance....John (UK)

    oil filter

    You cannot fit an external oil filter, spin-on or otherwise to this engine, unfortunately..John(UK)

    belt pulley

    They will interchange, if you find one with an 1-3/8" shaft and your tractor has 1-1/8" shaft, you can get a sleeve that fits in the Pulley to make it fit. If you find a Pulley with 1-1/8" shaft and the tractor is 1-3/8" you can make a spacer and use four long studs into the Tractor to use...

    to 30 hydralics cont.

    If the lift cylinder is leaking out of the rear end then it will usually be the rings on the piston (3) but you could find that the cylinder and/or the piston is also marked and requires replacing. If it has been changed before you may have a piston with a rubber seal fitted. If it leaks at the...

    PTO problem

    If there is a lot of free play in the pedal the Clutch will not clear and there will be some drag on the transmission, this will make it hard to engage either the PTO or the main transmission and it would cause the tractor to lurch as you are bringing the Transmission to a stop when you engage...
