lol probably 30 to 40 large burn piles of it, and lots more to pile

 

Watched a farmer do some hay yesterday

 

I had trouble finding anyone to respond back to me on my decals for my 3205 project. Decided to change up from printing decals to having color decals cut. I know a guy on the tractor forum I'm on and he cut some for me. Got them in today.

 

I have been having hydraulic shuddering issues with my tractor since a while and I've been trying to troubleshoot it since then.

Checked the basic stuff:Oil level is good. Filters are clean

But I've always noticed that the hydraulic oil becomes very hot. So my issues seem to be caused by overheating hydraulics...
But why? This is what I want to know.

It would explain why it is fine when the machine is cold but as soon it becomes hot, the shaking starts. Then I noticed that if I leave the machine idling after completing a task with it, it will shudder for a bit, like it has lost pressure that has built-up. Internal leakage somewhere maybe?? Internal leakage can cause overheating, so that's why I am leaning towards this...

So, how do I go from there? How do I check for internal leaks and clogged valves? What are the prime suspects?

machine is a Deere 610c

 

Does it have a hydraulic cooler on it near the radiator?

I’m unfamiliar with this model so I don’t know for sure.

 

Added a topper for storing whatever during the winter.

I actually had the topper on the previous trailer. I sold that trailer and kept the cap.

 

Going after this tomorrow. Get to try out my new trailer.

 

The island is done, it's an area within the large circle road, the native Sage was left, it will make a great spot for a couple of bee hives.

 

The corral area was done yesterday as well, it will be nice to lock the cows in here for a few days during deer season. The burn pile in the corral is huge, this area was all severely overgrown and not touched in 10 years.

 

Looking good Scott

 

Thanks!

Week 4 starts tomorrow with the Cat299, I will admit, averaging 5.5 hrs a day in the skidsteer is starting to wear on me, but I want to make sure I get all my monies worth out of that rental.

 

What’s a fair asking price for a Stihl FS80R with a blade? It runs excellent.

 

$50-$75

Most people are going electric.

 

That’s what I’m doing!

 

John Deere 850 diesel with a Kioti loader painted green and trimmed to fit.

And my newest toy, a Scag Patriot. Which by the way, Scag is now offering a 15% discount to anyone first responder or veteran.

 

Nice!

 

My first thought was $100 and see if anyone bites, you can always come down

 

Had a little help trimming some limbs back from the house. Pole saw wasn’t long enough from the ground.

 

I think the discount is sort of all the time for the Scags, as I got the discount for my "baby-Scag" Liberty Z 36, and then I bought one for my son, a Liberty Z 61. They are great mowers with a 5 year residential warranty. The machines were bought about a year and a half apart

 

Christian and I mowed for 3 hours for uncle joe…. He was on the husky 52” zeroturn and how and I were on the Kubota 2230’s…. F’n hot it was. My Kubota was running a bit over half way on the temperature gauge … it normally doesn’t go over half way when I’m mowing BUT the grass was heavy! So every so often I’d stop, drink a beer quick and back mowing I go!!!
