Thanks, got the original tax book and even the operators manual with it which doesn’t happen too often.Nice. Don't know anything about them though. If the front grill is anything to go by it looks looked after, but unless it's going to stand outside or you are likely to do rainy work I'd have the cab off
ROPS came in for new tractors in 1970, but older tractors had until 1975 or 76 ( can’t quite remember ) to be retrofitted with some sort of safety frame or cab.dynamo will only want new brushed I would think,
not sure, but think ROPS came in 1970, the B275 had ceased production by then, and think new B275 where fitted with CabCraft from factory
I very much agree, it is part of the history, yet so many seems to take them off, such a shamePart of its history and I think too many cabs are removed from older tractors.
Thanks for the information, think I know where your speaking off, I will check the oil and the strainer tomorrow. Seems to have plenty of power on the lift just not that smooth.have a look in the oil filler cap, (its like a water pipe bung on top at back of Hyd unit, poke something in to like dip the oil when its hot, see if it clear good oil, or milky watery oil, if milky, then change it when it is hot and warm,
on the front RHS of hyd unit you will see the oil feed pipe come out to feed the pump, it has a slight crank in it to get it closer to the side of gearbox, then there is a rubber sleeve with 2 jubilee clips on, slacken clips, slide rubber forward,
now you need to twist the pipe as it were at the housing end, you will see the pipe is welded to big collar, you need to twist or turn it so the pipe come away from gearbox, then waggle turn etc to the collar comes out, once out there is a steel washable strainer filter attached to the collar, wash strainer in petrol while oil runs out, check O ring is good or fit new O ring, put back together in reverse and fill with new oil, a standard SUTO oil will do
