my neighbor has a massey with that feature but I think that each tractor would have to be made to fit, no universal fit type.if I get a min.I am going to look at mine to see how easy or difficult it would be to make something up.with a catch to hold it up while hooking up the pto.great now something else to do.
well now that you have had time to reflect do you believe that that plastic bread clip had restricted a oil passage or was something else the cause of the bearing failure.
I use the diesel clean never had a problem,but maybe never needed a treatment ,it is one of those things if you never had a issue with something how do you know.But as far as I know diesel bugs must have water or moisture to live so pure diesel they can not live and reproduce in.So if you never had a water in the fuel light on,or if you inspected the fuel that you drained off and it was free of water.maybe you just picked up trash in the fuel.
the newer augers have a shield on the gearbox much like the pto shield on the tractor.but when you break the shear bolt sometimes things do not get put back on,yes there is a access hole in the shield to drive the bolt out but sometimes people always have a excuse why things happen.
well the long version is the ground is clay here and if it has been dry it is very hard.she was helping her husband who was on the tractor knowing him the tractor was wound up.she was rocking the auger by hand on the gearbox to get it to bite,her sleeve was grabed by the shear bolt and it jerked her arm almost off,it pretty much just hangs loose now.
I have a dong feng 204 that I use in the garden so these pressures might be a little low for your usage but I put 20 psi in all 4 tires.If you have a lot of hard surface use maybe more pressure is needed.
woman down the road, loose clothing ,shear bolt at gear box on auger with no protection = non functioning arm.people see it all the time but I guess that can not happen to me takes over.
I have found one advantange on those shields when bush hoggin real high stuff not near as much junk gets wound around that front u joint.
It could be a filter,fuel more than air,but I assume you would have seen if the water in fuel light is on, I have a 96 and it was acting as you describe there was a small leak on the suction side of the lift pump hose to the tank .the hose was only about 3 inches long.I found it by trying to pump up fuel to the filter and heard a slight hisss of it sucking air.I know your 2003 is different some but how much I do not know.
