Sresites

I lubed it up and it rotates just dandy. Put the mirrors on my 5250. I still want to adjust them differently so will be dissecting the arm to see if the detents can be rotated a few degrees. Kind of like repositioning the splines if that were the case.

I’m not sure about the detents design. Is it a spring loaded hinge? If so, then I’m sure lubricating would help the movement.

How do you adjust the axis of this area? I need to rotate the mirror assembly towards the left. Thanks.

A link you may find useful.

I thought the same thing about the dash. Maybe year of production. Here’s mine.

I said to myself that I am not going to look at this thread. I know what happens. Then it happened anyway.

At least you have an easy start with the sliding links. Remove those small screws that holds the lock caps in place - soak if need be but be careful. Two of mine broke and had to drill them out, threads were ok. Sounds like dirt buildup on top of the locking studs. My sliders were locked in with rust and dirt as if they were welded in place.

I'm 99% sure they're telescopic.

I had a leak what seemed like it was coming from the bellhousing. Not. The hydraulic oil filter was barely finger tight. I changed all the fluids and filters shortly after I bought the 5250. No more leaks until just recently with my MFD and that's now fixed. That's sure a nice looking 5250 you got there. Are the lower lift links (telescopic) and lower lift link rusted together? And ask the seller if he still has the hammer strap for your tractor. Looks like there used to be one on the drawbar.

I had a '69 CST20 years ago. 396 factory installed and all the other bells and whistles. I sure do miss that truck but not the mileage.

I have a spare right step. I’ll double check next weekend on it’s condition overall. I’m pretty sure it’s in nice straight condition. I had found an older step system that folds up. But as Jass said, straighten yours out. It’s bent back, not damaged. Very nice 5250. More pics please, plus the serial number.

Just realized something about my build date. January 9, 1997 1-9-1997 1-9-97 or 1997 😁

Had new spindle seals installed and replaced the tie rod assemblies. Thought a little power check was in order. The 5250 is rated at 112 hp (my build date is January 9th 1997). A 5150 Pro from Europe is rated at 132 hp. N&S Case IH dealer in Stockton, CA performed the dyno services. She’s putting out 130 hp. Very pleased.

Can you get a picture of your conveyor system showing the type and positions of the motors?

This is up my alley. I called a couple of coworkers for some weekend brain teasing. One thing quickly agreed upon for the cheap are high end shaft bearings at each end. Upgrade conveyor chains if need be with bearing type links. And keep that chain precisely adjusted for minimum sag. You cannot push a chain. But you should be able to run the three motors together with no problems. Granted that they are of identical spec. Also have each motor alarmed for over amping. If anyone motor should over amp, alarm and stop all three motors with the one overload circuit of the one motor. This would be something wired in series.
