This is the type with optional center pedal for the aux hydraulics and a valve mounted by the operators feet. There is a direct rod linkage that goes to the valve. I hooked up an auger for the...

    L775 hydraulic / gearcase / chaincase oil (can I use tractor fluid to flush?)

    Well I put "universal tractor fluid" in all three compartments. I plan to replace the gearcase and chaincase with 80-90 wt in a couple of weeks unless anyone reports back here that running "tractor fluid" instead of 90wt would be OK. I realize this is a subject that has been beaten to death but...

    L775 hydraulic / gearcase / chaincase oil (can I use tractor fluid to flush?)

    older l775 I want to flush out the systems. Specs call for 90 wt in the gearcase and chaincase and Only Dextron II ATF in the hydraulic reservoir. It has been sitting and I would like to run it with "cheaper" oil/fluid for a week/month or 2, then change fluid again. I am wondering if I can use...

    f2l411d deutz 2cyl injectors removing

    Thanks for the input. I am familiar with injectors like the ones you describe (ie cummins 5.9L) that have a hold-down bracket and can be pulled with slidehammer or homemade tool. However, these ones (f2L 411D) do not have any type of hold down bracket, and don't seem to be threaded either. It's...
