    Case 1845C troubles

    Seems to be in both, and the same time it happens. Control handles will soften up a bet and machine will slow down at the same time. Then everything comes back agian. My question is, the pump on the back of the machine, what is the configuration of the pumps on this machine? The pump on the back...

    Case 1845C troubles

    Hard to say when it started. Has plenty of fluid, just flushed it and changed the filter yesterday, didnt help much. Everything works fine, hydraulics just kind of get soft for a split second and then they firm up again. When I am backing up fast is when i notice it more i think. Machine kind of...

    Case 1845C troubles

    On my 1845C, the hydraulics what to surge, kind of jerky almost. Can really feel it through the handles for the bucket. What can cause this?

    Never Seen This Before

    "Implements of Husbandry" i.e. farm equipment are allowed to go overwidth. Some states want you buy a cheapy overwidth permit to haul a combine on the interstate. Just depends on what state.

    tele controls?

    Perfect JCBgm, that was the answer I was looking for. I haven't been around them much and was curious as to what was out there.

    tele controls?

    I guess that makes some sense..LOL. I guess I'm so used to front end loader controls. Why can't they make the control pattern switchable like they are on trackhoes? and I am thinking about unloading hay or using a bucket on a telehandler, where having the roll/dump on the thumb switch could...

    tele controls?

    I have been using a JLG tele to unload bales of straw at the local dairy. Do all teles have the same control pattern of having the up/down and telescope on the stick with the roll on a rocker switch? Seems much more logical to me to have the roll on the stick and the telescope on a switch. Any...

Pulling large implements in the field does make alot of work for a tractor, but it is a usaually a nice steady pull. Pan tractors get a hard pull in the cut, which isn't so bad. But then they get shifted into top...

    this just blew my mind

    We have an old Hough loader like those pictured above. We always roaded it in reverse to. This loader went quite abit faster in reverse, so I think that is the reason for going backwards when roading.

    Double Clutch Down Shifting CDL Test

    Hahaha, that reminds me of the time when the clutch slave cylinder fell out of the housing on my old ford pick up, while I was still in the school parking lot. Drove home without a problem, and all my friends were amazed that I could do that! But I made it sound really hard so they would be...
