Hi guys, The time has come to fix our Ford 7740 with carraro axle 4wd issue, the issue being that the pinion has worn and nolonger gets driven by the 4wd shaft. So that being said, I did abit of reading through the workshop manual, and it states that I need to work out the shim thickness by...

Did you ever get to the bottom of this? It would be nice to know the issue.

I'd say that's why they updated the design.

Yours must be the newer type float system... This is the type we have.

Nope never fill a gearbox to the top. Oil will expand with heat ect and they get hot! If there's one bung on the side then that will be your level.

Yea that's the issue with buying from the other side of the world lol. There's normally pretty decent ways to calculate wire size for different current draws ect.

Good man pigman115 how do you find it? Have you used it in rush ground? Ours i think is the older style float system where it uses a length of threaded bar going through a short string and a longer spring.... I don't see it being a good system and think it doesn't provide enough float. What's...

Sorry you got no response bud. I actually only downloaded the app so I've been looking through a few posts and came across this.

It would really depend on what type of current draw the baler will use. Is it for a control box? Is there a fuse in the control box... If so what amperage is it? If it's say 15A then go 16A cable if it's 10A a 16A cable will still do ok. If your thinking ahead go 20A and that will do almost...

Hi. We just bought a used Fleming super float 800 (8ftHD) Does any one use on of these machines so I can pick your brain abit? Cheers.

I'm going by the stickers thats on the doors. I must look into seeing if a dealer can get me the build spec.

Ill have to do some digging. Spider Mike It does have a factory loader to be fair. It came up for sale at a private dealer along with a sister 6040 from the same farm.... The only difference between it and ours was a year younger, oval lights, slightly bigger loader and no opening front window...

I know this is oldish 😂 but I use a drill doctor..... Pricey enough but what you will save in bits make up for it, also it's a perfect sharpen everytime.

I know I wrote this post last year...... But I'm still no wiser! To clarify our 6040 is an elite with electro command (fancy name for sle) gearbox. It has 2 spools. EDC linkage. Low profile roof with opening front window if you could believe it 😂 It's a common rails engine with electronic pump...

Ours has square lights...no think the last year of them before going oval.
