    1600 Utility Numbers

    I have 2 of them also. A gas that was the cover tractor for issue # 29 of the Oliver Heritage magazine and one that I took the gas engine out of and put a 1655 diesel engine in it. Both are good tractors.

    Embarassing admission

    Insurance agent came this morning. I am covered with a $500.00 deductible. The dealer will be here tomorrow to do the estimate. Will let everyone know what the final total is.

    Embarassing admission

    Yesterday after work my youngest son and I took the loader off my Mahindra 8560 and hooked to the round baler to get it ready for this year. Knew that we had a hydraulic hose leaking (short hose that hooks to the door lift). We got everything out of the way so we could see the hoses, could not...

    Hay Equipment Questions

    I pull a 56 and a 256 in tandem with a homemade double hitch. Never had a problem with hay wrapping around the axles. That back rake is putting 2 rake widths out the back with no problem. My guess is that you are either cutting your hay too tall or not letting the rake down low enough. I let...

    Need Ideas on Unloading 21 Tractors from a LoBoy

    Use that skid steer to dig a hole for the trailer to back down into until the bed is level with the ground. Fill in at the back of the trailer with dirt until you can back that 210 onto the trailer and pull them off one at a time. When they are all unloaded and the trailer is pulled out use a...

    1600 Utility Gearing

    I have 2 of the 1600 utility models. They are fast. Will leave my 1650 in its dust on the road. Did you put the 1655 diesel engine and over/under in one of them? With that overdrive unit it will probably run 30 plus mph. Make sure your steering is tight if you operate in on the highway

    1250 questions

    A guy stopped by our shop yesterday and offered to sell me a 1250 dsl. with p. s.for $1,000.00. Really don't know anything about these. I have a barn nearly full of olivers, 550 to 1900 and don,t need it but at that price I might go look. He said it starts and runs smooth but that the...

    2-70 motor Into a 1600

    About a year ago I put the diesel engine from a 1655 into a 1600 Utility gas with the 2-speed Hydra Power. A simple bolt in for that part. You will have to cut new holes in the hood for air intake and exhaust. Linkage and fuel lines have to be modified, but not an impossible job. Biggest...

    Wish you lived closer. I have a Trail Wagon with the belt slipping problem. Could you post the phone number of the manufacturer so I can contact them? Don't have a manual to go with it so I would be completely in the dark if I tore into it. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Max

    Disc Mower caddy

    I have a Vermeer 6020 mower that due to health reasons is very difficult for me to hook up to by myself. This is the mower with the metal shield over the cutter bar instead of canvas. I have seen pictures of caddies for sale that would turn this into a tongue hitch. I would like to hear from...

    Mahindra warranty

    The tractor I bought was a 2012 model. I priced JD, New Holland, Case IH and Kubota. At that time the best warranty any of the others had was one year with JD offering a 2nd year for several hundred dollars extra.

    Mahindra warranty

    I bought a new 8560 in Feb. of 2013 (70 pto hp, cab and loader, MFWD). This was the largest that they made at that time. The pto went out a few weeks ago. I called the closest dealer to me about repairs he said it would be two weeks at least to get to it and get the parts. Due to a parts...

    Added to the Herd

    If that tractor has 28 inch rear tires ir is called a utility model. I have 2 of them. Ollie Schaeffer calls them a 550 on steroids
