Yes, I totally agree. I really like that WD-40 dry lubricant. Works great for those dusty and dirty environments. Hope you have a great weekend and Memorial holiday. Thanks for checking out the video.
Learned that I've missed the zerk for the three-point lift by the right-side rear wheel. As far as the top link, the manual one that comes with the tractor has two zerks on it. I'll have to add lubricating the linkage pivot points as well. After straightening out the level indicator rod after bending it, I applied some anti -seize to help it slide in the guide easier. One issue that I had was the range selector lever came undone when the nut vibrated loose that connects the selector lever from the linkage. It was a simple fix. Just something that might happen. I noticed some sloppiness in it and should have investigated it before the nut eventually vibrated off. Thanks for posting these videos!
Hi John, Yeah that one for the 3 point lever, as you could see was not the easiest to get to. Didn't even think about the manual top link having a zerk. Thanks for that info, it was puzzling me. I also bent the loader level indicator early on and like you that's when I started keeping the tube lubed. No issues yet with the range selector, but I will definitely keep an eye on it. I really appreciate the feedback and additional tips. Hope you have a great Memorial holiday. Take care.
Use the dry lube on your 3PH balls (connection points) and linkages as well. It works great on all of them as well! Been using it for years, and they look like new still! 🙂
😅Excellent Jeff! Maintenance! My favorite 😊 Good job buddy! Based on what I see come into the dealership, some folks need Jeff’s maintenance class! I heard those front zerks take grease better if you lift the front of the tractor up, not sure if that’s true. Cheers buddy 🇺🇸🚜 Have a great weekend!
Hey Mike, a little grease goes a long way. That's a great tip, I can see were lifting the front end would definitely make a difference. Going to try that next time. I'm sure you do see a lot of crazy stuff at the dealership. Anyway, good to here from you and hope you and yours have and great weekend and Memorial holiday.
Hi Will, sounds like the 4030C loader may be a all around better unit. Can't have too many grease zerks in my opinion. I have a 1954 Farmall Super A and I think it has somewhere between 20 and 25. Thanks for checking out the video and commenting. Hope you have a great Memorial holiday.
On my ck2610, there is a zerk on the clutch pedal. It is not really visible. You have to get under the tractor, look where the pedal pivot point is, that zerk is right on top of that pivot point area. You have to just feel around and you will find it.
