I LOVE the outdoors, and share my video smorgasbord of working on our small farm. Putting up small hay bales, making firewood, moving snow, fixing and modifying equipment to hopefully make it run better then before AND tossing in some inside home stuff and odds and ends along the way. I hope you enjoy my channel. Please feel free to leave your comments too. thank you for stopping by..
Been awhile since I did that but assume ring isn’t major part just a keeper ring?? Might be able to reuse old steel one.Seals are what’s needed. I have since got the tools to install o rings on inside of cylinders. Makes life easier installing …..Amazon 17 bucks
@@sneezeacres5240 Thanks. They had it serviced (new belt put on) , and I’m not sure if they even put the bolt back in at all. 🤷♂️ Pulley just worked it’s way off. I can’t find the bolt on their 2 acres. Appreciate your tip! ✌️
I like your system of replacing those spring fingers far better than the ones supplied by John Deere, where do you get those spring fingers and holders from and what are they called?
Part number E68906 for model numbers below 425001 and for 425001 and up its part number E68906.. I search internet for those number and where ever I can get like 10 or 20 the cheapest I get. Ebay, farmstores, etc. Dont really see any major quality difference in one to the other...
@@sneezeacres5240 Both of those part numbers you supplied are the same number. Also the bracket that attaches the springs to the reel, do you have a part number for those as well. This system is far better than sliding them off the reel, that takes time and time is money. BTW, love your channel, I learn much from it.
The lights are always on because they’re LED, whether they’re on or off is inconsequential. You’ll never make up for the effort and cost of putting in a switch. You do a great job on video presentation.
Okey. Thanks for this video! I changed mine and reassembled everything and i tighten the pto clutch hex screw with a hand torque wrench as hard as I could before it start making the pto clutch and engine pulley spine too so I thought it was tight enough and then after 45 min of mowing today the hex screw got loose and the pto clutch fell. I didn't lock the top part (underneath the blower part under the hood. Also my pto clutch was not flush against the drive pulley even with the washers. So i added 2 mores but everything dropped as soon as I engaged the pto on the second attempt. I hope it makes sens. I wish I could show you that way you could help me out.
@@sneezeacres5240 Was able to clean my air filter on my Cub Cadet 1040. It was located on the side but basically the same process so your video was helpful.
Instead of putting the locking pliers on the flywheel to keep the motor from spinning you just take out the clutch bolt before you remove the clutch bar holding the clutch
There’s been different comments about this saying there are easier ways but I’ve done this on three different mowers with similar components and have found for me this works well. Guessing there are always differences in the same mowers even. Glad you tuned in
you have to lift seat out and unplug wires also disconnect your arm levers, throttle cable, etc. then two bolts on back and two bolts up front look and youll find.. also lift arms up and move safety bar to hold arms then slide away i thought I did a video on this ill look
I bought one today. It has a broken chain that drives the hydraulic pump. I ordered a manual and a parts book. I have much to learn. This is a good instructional video.
broken chain piece of cake lol.. I hope yours works well for you they are great machines once you start using them.. imho..need any help let me know. Also have video on tips and upgrades if interested.. Good luck
need to learn to over steer the tractor a times over steering can move the pickup by 6 inches (left or right) or more if you do it just before the bale hits the pickup
Lukey6534. Right 70s tech. The machine amazes me on what it can do. And how it could have been better with a little engineering in certain areas. Guessing these got parked when big round baler came about
New 1840 owner...helpful maintenance information. Maybe you could do videos on seat lock adjustment or steering adjustments. Also, how did the chain hack work throughout the winter?
Talking about the repair or chains period. It’s no good pushing snow once there is ice on the ground it just spins and doesn’t /can’t get traction to push snow at all. It’s a must if you get snow. Just remember if using chains to put wheels so they are furthest from loader frame. I just started leaving them that way as more stable with wider stance
Great job showing and telling, I am restoring my old club got it all a part. I did it to check everything on it to see what I need for new parts or not. Rebuilding the motor it used to much oil , well wish me luck on everything working right and well see ya next time see ya bye.
I have a old sears lawn tractor that basically use for chores, etc. Doesnt mow as to slow but it has that Rev. 1,2,3 gears in high and low.. pretty cool...Good luck on your project..
Great, helpful video. I always use Anti-seize, also. I just completed this drive belt replacement on my Cub Cadet LT-1045. I did not need to remove the fan, and I did not need to remove the 4 engine mounting bolts, and I did not need to lift the engine up. The pulley on the engine slides down the engine shaft and allows you to slip the belt off/on, once it clears the 3 metal guide tabs. I also used an electric impact gun to remove the bolt through the PTO clutch. Just thought I'd share my experience. Thanks for your video!
Good video, thanks. I gave a thumbs-up because my current project is to fabricate such a chute and your video helps. For future reference, it might be useful to clearly give all of the basic dimensions in a list on the screen: dimensions of smaller tube (on left side); dimensions of larger (receiver) tube (on right side); length of right and left arms; length left side of tube inserted into receiver tube on right side; dimensions of "bale catcher"; overall inside width (right side to face of catcher on the left); and overall length from end of bale chamber; etc. Good work. Happy haying.
Ya I know that’s one of my shortcomings is to not be thorough enough. But not everyone does things the same and figure most may be able to fill in gaps once presented with a basic idea. Thanks for comments and watching
The price of parts is ridiculous, Over the last several years I bought a used lathe and Bridgeport mill at the estate for 500 each. Ridiculous priced parts I make my own! I've save 1,000s of $
Hi. I just picked up a 1010 with single bale unload. I cannot get the to start working. Is there anyway I could talk with you? And figure out what is preventing the cycle?
