Ford 1200 compact tractor

[Jim Hutcheon]

Hi Folks
I'm new to the group
Recently I purchased a 1981 Ford 1200 Compact tractor with Front loader.
When I bought the tractor everything worked but not that good on the Hydraulic side.
Since then it appears the Hydraulic Gear pump has packed up.
Front loader and 3 point linkage only work if I force air into the transmission box via the dip stick opening.
Any advice please.
Regards Jim

Blocked filter ??!

 

[Jim Hutcheon]

Blocked filter ??!

Yes the filter was contaminated, quite a lot of metal filings.
I have cleaned it up

 

[startinghandle]

A lot of metal filings does not sound
good
Someone knowledgeable on these tractors will be along soon

Pretty sure that's a shibaura painted blue.
if it's an external hydraulic pump, @Mr Happy may be able to help

If it's the hyd pump that's give up, it's not looking good for getting a new one... Can't get into the CNH parts list to see if it's mentioned as they have completely overhauled the website and its worse than useless to navigate through. Had a look in Messicks(USA CNH website) and the pump is shown but no pt no. Maybe Whitehouse Products or Howford Hydraulics could rebuild the old one if that's what it needs. Or go with a belt driven one from the crankshaft if needs be...
It is a Shibaura painted blue but parts wouldn't be to common for them either.

You could always try ringing a new holland parts dealer. Who knows. They may be more help than a website. Just a thought

Yes it's a shame they've really messed it up big time, someone is asking for advice on a DB1394, couldn't even find it listed on their new setup.

@Netherfield
I think I sussed it a bit more as I was able to find the 1394....
After going into the main CNH site, you then need to click on CaseIH. Then to the left of the search box, it says "Type". Click it, then model and enter the model in the search box. Pick the section you want, followers by a sub menu. At the bottom you'll see 2 boxes. One for parts and no's and the other for illustrations.... Such a f*?! up compared to the old site...

I swear I'd tried all ways. But thanks it does work thanks.

Probably someone trying to justify their existence made the new one.

Yes it is indeed manufactured by Shibaura for Ford, only available 1979-1982.
Thanks a lot I will try Mr Happy
