I just want to toss a hat in the fire n say watching your adventures just makes me think I so wouldn't mind having one of those 750s pretty impressive with what tasks they've handled on your videos, I mean for weight and hp it's impressive to me.
Oh my, more maintenance, what is this coming to young man, next thing ya know, those machines are going to last a life time, then whatcha gonna spend all that money you save on??😮 waiting for the 755 to do a happy dance, 😊. All seriousness, nice job, love the maintenance aspect of the channel, thanks for the tag along with ya vid.
One of my most favorite expressions (soon after “measure twice, cut once” and “If at first you don’t succeed, get a bigger hammer”) is “If you don’t schedule maintenance for your equipment, your equipment will schedule the maintenance for you” 🤣
Thx for putting this content on YT channel. I meant to go find your stuff on FB but every time I log in there, I get distracted by other interests that don’t reach me on YT. When I come to YT, I am bullet proof to distractions …oh wait, squirrel
Keeping up with routine maintenance, doing preventative maintenance, keeping stuff in proper shape, well done. (I think it's well done, not that I ever do it.)
I purchased an 855 with 500 hours about ten years ago and now approaching 1K. The only major repair was rebuilding the hydraulic steering unit. What a job that was! Love these tractors. Thanks for the video.
Definitely liking this channel. Cool to see these little projects that go on in between the bigger ones. There's something about doing basic maintenance that just feels good and rewarding, no one usually sees it but bad things happen if it's not done😁👍
Enjoying the new channel, Mike! Inspiring me to go maintain something! I've done my tractors for Spring and my tiller for the garden. About all I have left is...(grinning) my snowblower unit! Time to get that all cleaned, tuned and ready for next winter! No time like the present! 😁
I have to say Mike I am enjoying this channel as much as your other one good videos and lots of ideas on what you might try if you have older machine's thanks for bringing us along.
I’m anxiously awaiting the solution to the leaking oil @2:03 because I do the weekly wipe on the oil pan too! I haven’t been able to locate the leak yet.
The salon manicure with used 30 weight oil seems to do a great job at keeping your hands baby soft and callous free. I’ve used a lot of carb cleaner over the last week and it just doesn’t work. Did an oil change on my CRV last weekend and I’m sure the drive through oil changer that did it for the guy I bought the car off of must have installed the drain plug with an impact gun. Needless to say I’ve already gotten a replacement drain plug for the next oil change.
You need a shirt that says "change the angle of the dangle" and have a grease gun on there also and like a pin with a zerk or something. Nothing like a good ole' PM day.
acetone will not degrease anything petroleum based, i know this from my job i've had for forty years. it is a solvent, just not for petroleum products. it will remove natural oils like finger prints, really dries out your hands. brake cleaner works good though,
Rear main a'drippin? My 755 needs a rear main, just started on that today...looks like I'll get away with not pulling the engine (we'll see tomorrow). I did my front axle bearings and seals last week ($450 in parts!), with some help from your video on that. Also, doesn't the manual say 10w30 is only good up to 68F?
@@Kleeman1 I can't say yet, I've only just begun! My mounts were also getting bad, so much so that the 2 big steel brackets that attach them to the block broke. 1 was welded previously. Just got one replaced tonight (just jacking up the engine from underneath) waiting for the part for other side to arrive. $250 each. After I get the driveline fully detached I'll assess whether it'll just be easier to pull the engine. I can say already that it's likely the less tedious option.
@@Kleeman1 Replaced the rear main today. Pretty easily done without pulling the engine. The mounts are a bit of a pain to get to...but that's true with or without pulling it. I used my chain hoist for support and jockeyed it around. Still waiting for one bracket before I can button everything back up. Here's an idea: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--c2flUZAhEU.html
I need your loader. Went to the JD dealership last week. They tried to tell me I needed to put 15-40 in my 755. I told him it calls for straight 30w and has had straight 30w since before he was born. What is going on? Is it a lack of training? Or is it intentional?
Using Acetone without gloves...? That pretty much puts you in the "I'm stupid" department. Kiss your liver and kidneys goodbye. Not now......but down the line.
Ima fix it up gal, from a fix it up family and I Love this extra dose of Kleeman, channel. Keep those cooking an knitting channels for the gals who are afraid to get their hands dirty.
