you even got a lift pump

control level all the way back for up im thinking ?

my overrunning clutch on the back of the slip clutch was stuck, polished the groove out of it and squared up the rectangle dogs and rounded the edge that clicks when i kill pto . that shaft and clutch is heavy dang.

yes thinking that, thanks for checking . i will do that test and report back. i think we are on the same track though

i was in hi 1 with fender high hay grazer , used to low 1 and 2 with the 488 . fast . for me dang lol

yea i do tend to do that,i just wanted to see how every one else ran there disc binds on these older tractors.

mine was used .had new blades on it.i replaced skid plates. adusted the float springs. may tighten up more ,still seems heavy a bit.i went and changed all oil. seems like a better set up than a bed full of bearing material if a bearing goes bad . guess it would be confined .yea i just ben idling way down and shutting it off.

yes i wondered about the plugs on the end of the crimper roller bearings also , ok thanks for sharing your experience on these machines, strong800

so mine is not wanting to rachet like it should right?

i have the swivel tongue so i think its 1.05 diagram may be a little defferent , dont kn0w why though

thats odd . is it by the slip clutch , if it is this one is not rachiting like it should when i turn pto off. im looking at when pto shaft goes in machine be hind swing out cover.

my tractor is a 756 farmall,I do idle it down before i disingage it . i usually stop 3 or so times a day. i think i will just run it like i have ben doing . just didnt know if those rachet type clutches were worth messing with or not for what im doing.

are them disc binds hard on pto brakes.upgraded from a 488Haybind to a 7230 newholland disc bind. does anyone use those ratchet type clutches on there pto shafts so when they shut pto off the machine keeps winding down after the pto brakes kick in ? or just let the pto brake stop the cutter . i would think that would wear the brakes out faster .

yes pete thanks for coming back
