    40 Series Draft Control

    I’ve read on some 40 series forums that the draft control lever should be ran 3 notches below max, ever heard of this or why?

    40 Series Draft Control

    Hi all, I have a Ford 5640 (Blue Roof) SL, mechanical transmission, and manual draft control. With the lift arm height lowered to minimum the arms still don’t drop low enough to hook up to me disc mower. Adjusted the draft control but didn’t seem to make any difference. Is there something I’m...

    5640 Coolant

    Anyone know the factory fill coolant type on a 1996 Ford 5640, or what is compatible/should be used? Currently has green in it.

    5640 Fuel Treatment

    I typically don’t use any additive here in winter, typically only get a few weeks of single digits to 0, and never had a problem. But with not knowing what was in this one and around 0 for lows and teens for highs didn’t want to chance it. Added the Howes to tank and haven’t had any trouble...

    5640 Fuel Treatment

    I’ve got some Howes treatment that I use in my other stuff I’m going to add to it, and I’ll just let it run for a while. It stays inside, but it’s just a metal building. It’s showing about a half tank

    5640 Fuel Treatment

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I’m not familiar with these two tank setups. I had just bought this tractor back in the summer and have had it in my shop all summer/fall fixing little things on it, planning to use it as a backup and haying tractor, and with the weather coming in I just realized...

    5640 Fuel Treatment

    Hey guys, I have a 5640 that still has summer blend in it, if I add treatment to the top tank is that going to do anything to help keep it from gelling, or do I need to do something else?

    5640 Loader Valves

    How can I determine if the system is CCLS or open center? The manual shows the CCLS system to have an arrangement of 3 filters on the right hand side of trans., and only shows a single filter for the open center fixed displacement system. Mine only has the single filter on the right hand side...

    5640 Loader Valves

    Follow up question, so I had a typo in the original post. I have a 5640 SL, not SLE, and tractor data is showing it as open center, is this correct for the SL, or does it need the CCLS loader valve?

    5640 Forward-Reverse Shifting

    Hey guys, working on my “new to me” 5640, it’s a blue top with a cab, 12x12 trans. Sometimes it’s hard to shift from neutral to forward or reverse, kind of like the shift linkage is jammed. Is there a common place to start or looking for worn pins?
