    JD 310E no start safety switch malfunction or operator error

    Steve i am hearing the click and it is strong but i plan to pull that area apart this morning. I am trying to take it in steps so not to contaminate the diagnostic process. Thanks for the tip about the 40 amp solenoid because that is exactly what I would have done. I did notice there is a K1...

    JD 310E no start safety switch malfunction or operator error

    I don’t see power at the start fuse at anytime, even when the key is in start position. I am guessing a safety switch is before the start fuse, although I assumed it would be after the fuse. I do not hear an alarm even when trying to start while F and R lever is in gear. I do hear a non stop...

    JD 310E no start safety switch malfunction or operator error

    I did and checked the fuses. Now trying to find check saftey switches. I am guessing the switch on Forward and Reverse or if there is one on the seat one of them is the issue.

    JD 310E no start safety switch malfunction or operator error

    New to me 1998 Jd 310E. Ser. #T0310EX843562 I only ran it long enough to park it. I pulled the radiator and just now reinstalled. I did not get a chance to familiarize my self with the controls. It would start with or without the seat belt fastened before. Now I have the FR lever in neutral...

    Intro and New backhoe owner

    I buy the pdf and a ream of 3 hole paper and print it out. A little more effort, but you have both options. Just make sure you use a laser printer, I don’t think ink jets are waterproof.Working on heavy equipment is a big challenge and expensive, anything that helps is worth considering.

    Aftermarket source for JD 310e radiator hoses

    Thanks Edgephoto, that is good information to have. I was surprised when i called two dealers for the hoses, which neither stocked. Also when they checked their other branches, none of them had them in stock. It is bad enough the total price for the two hoses was about 150, plus about 100 miles...

    Wrong info on google help

    For the last 3 years of my business Google said we were not open week days. We could never get it changed. Google shows a house a couple miles down the road from me as my address. It even has a picture of his house instead of mine. No matter what I say most new people follow google. I now send a...

    Aftermarket source for JD 310e radiator hoses

    Joe you are correct. I had hoped there might be a quality source them that I could mail order so not to drive 90 miles to the dealer. Although my new to me 310E has only 3200 hours, it is 25 years old. I called two JD dealers and neither stocked a radiator hose. That told me that in another 15...

    Bobcat 863 c series auxiliary hydraulics

    I should have said some PWM valves have a manual override not most . I have not checked my JD 310E but I do not think that they do.

    To bad you are not close to Maine, I am selling a good 510 that has just had home use for the past 30 years because I bought a 4 wheel drive 310E. The 510 is a monster for pushing over trees with the 22 ft boom.

If you let sit for an hour or so after stalling, it would start up.I pulled the primer pump and discovered crude in the pump. Bought...

    Bobcat 863 c series auxiliary hydraulics

    Most of the valves have a manual override. You take the acorn lock nut off and there will be a regular lock nut underneath, loosen and turn the screw in to full flow but be sure to count the turns so you can set it back to the original setting. The coil should pull off so check the stem for rust...

    Bobcat 863 c series auxiliary hydraulics

    i understand the basic principle, but have been wondering how long of a pulse at full 12 would it take to burn out the coil. I guess it all depends on the duty cycle at full 12v for a particular coil. You got me going on learning more about pwm controls. If it would last long enough for the...
