    Where does the transmission fluid disappear?

    Yeah I will be recirculating fairly good oil all along! Until the parking brake no longer holds. I'm planning on getting the parts and staging an area where I will attempt the repair.

    Where does the transmission fluid disappear?

    Hello Diesel Dave, Thanks for your input. I drained a good 5 gals excess from the rear axle. I'm dumfounded about how the axle housing was able to accumulate that additional amount without symptoms other than the constant replenish to the transmission. I figured that, yes, it would be a matter...

    Where does the transmission fluid disappear?

    First, sorry about not updating before. It was only today I was able to check on the rear axle oil level. Exactly as advised by Diesel Dave and mg2361...rear axle not only overfilled but overflowed for a good five minutes until I had to put the Plug back on because my drain pan was about to...

    Where does the transmission fluid disappear?

    Hello Diesel Dave, Thank you so much for your diagnostic. It makes a lot of sense just like the other posts by Hard Rock and Bote. I am aware of your knowledge of these machines and appreciate letting me know about this possibility with the 310SJ. The parking brake is operated with pressure...

    Where does the transmission fluid disappear?

    Hello Bote and thanks much for your reply. On my John Deere the transmission is a world separate from the hydraulic system except that the pump is driven mechanically by PTO directly on the tranny.

    Hello HardRockMN, Nope, I had not thought about that possibility which makes perfect sense. Thanks for your suggesttion.

    John Deere 310SJ Slow or No Park Brake release at idle

    I received the attached specs from Fleetguard a while ago. Still asked them if this filter would compare to the AT466863 in terms of operating pressure. See the second attachment.

    Where does the transmission fluid disappear?

    I have had issues before with my 310SJ parking brake delayed release and also not moving in gear. Many folks here, especially mg2361 have helped me with great advice. I have been able to fix this by changing oil and filter and most importantly topping off the reservoir a tad over the dipstick...

    John Deere 310SJ Slow or No Park Brake release at idle

    I did send a request to Fleetguard Tech Support to find out about the max operating pressure specs. Will see and comment later. Yes, I installed one last time I dealt with this issue and it is white and has the ZF logo. Fleetguard only lists the BPV opening value. Thanks always for your kind...

    John Deere 310SJ Slow or No Park Brake release at idle

    Hello mg. Per your account I could then discard a Fleetguard HF6316 I have at hand out of abundance of caution?

    Hydraulic Attachment First Time Use

    Here's a video of the first try. Not the best take because my brother was keeping away a safe distance. The attachment is well built and cuts through brush with ease. It takes some time to get used to it and handle properly. I don't plan on getting a mini-ex so I had to use what I had at hand...

    Hydraulic Attachment First Time Use

    Hello Dave, All done. Switched hoses on the motor inlet and the brush cutter came to life! I did about 2 hrs. of testing and the 310SJ handles this 800 lb. attachment well. Just stay on firm ground and operate it nice and easy. Only drawback is you have to re-position to cover additional areas...

    Hydraulic Attachment First Time Use

    I double checked. All it has is "A" & "B" port stamped. Called the manufacturer and was advised to try one way and if it turns clockwise interchange the hosesto make it turn CCW. Not very helpful...I guess it would be a lot easier labeling it. Nothing is mentioned in the manual either. These...

    Hydraulic Attachment First Time Use

    Hello Dave. Thanks for your advice. You're right..the left side looking from the seat is where the pressure goes. Funny that JD doesn't label this. This is the very first time I am operating this part of the backhoe. I had a very tough time loosening the existing plugs in the aux lines. These...

    Hydraulic Attachment First Time Use

    Hello and Happy Easter to all. I'm in the process of attaching a hydraulic brush cutter on my backhoe. My machine has factory lines installed but being a second hand unit I don't know if, how or what was ever connected to these. They have plugs at the end for which I acquired quick flat face...
