On my 135, the nose of the starter broke and locked the engine up. Was able to retrieve the broken piece by taking the starter off. Might not be the issue with your machine, but just a starting point.



The guy I got it from was telling me how tough it was to keep the bush hog running at the right height. He made a set of limiter chains for the lift arms so he could just run it with the lift control all the way down. He did a good slick job on everything he did on the old tractor.

There is an internal adjustment on the draught control.
You remove the Control lever on the side of the transmission case to access the block that touches one of the lift control rods.
On the little block there is an adjustment screw.
You need a tool that looks like a wedge that is slid in between the rod/lever and the little block.

This sets the range of the draught control.
It has been 20 years since i have done this but it will help in controling the lift hunting the right level.

You don't need the draught working much when using a bushhog only the lift function is needed.

If i still have the manual i will send you the information.

Gawd i am gettin old, fooling with MF tractors was20+ years ago.

Freaking plumbing project at the house today. You know what that means. Another trip to the hardware store. I'd rather swing a hammer.

Nobody to blame but yourself.

Good afternoon guys. One SUV detailed and off to do maintenance on a friends truck. Lunch now, trying the latest chips from Lay's. The tacos are the best by far.

I rolled a Kubota over on its side once backfilling a basement. Guy who was watching said I did a cartwheel off the tractor, and was ten feet away before it stopped moving. I have no idea what I did. In times like that, I believe instinct kicks in, and we just do whatever our brain tells our body to do.

Ida shat meseff.

100 yards of terror.

We had a case sc with hand clutch I got used to running it but boy does it mess with people looking for a foot clutch. Most recent tractor I had was a Allis wd but need to look at it now dad was at the shack brush hogging and motor locked up really idea why still full of oil and ran smooth right till it quit. Never smoked or used any noticeable oil amounts and changed it in spring with new filter .

Dad a Deere B hand clutch and flywheel start. My favorite was his Oliver HG 68 gauge crawler. Former muck tractor. He had a snow blade on it with a hand crank winch. No hydraulics on it.

Neither does my wife. She thinks all of us men are just overgrown boys.

Um....yes.
