Today at work

[REStracTORATION]

A little update on the fendt I'm not wanting to give to much away for obvious reasons
Roof on and rest of grey parts ie step tool box, exhaust, intake all floors and Matt's windows in

Dam haven't got a picture of windows in

Front rear window frames and doors are primed up tonight with heaviest nose cone in the world too
No pics again.
Been mulling over in my head what to do with seat and it's in really good shape apart from the top corner has worn through and will only let it down so....
I'm going to have oil the sewing machine up...

Have to do both covers the seat base is perfect just needs a clean.

Did a bit of plateing mirror arms door striker top link holder handthrottle etc

Obviously no pictures it's killing me not putting pics up of the finished items.
To top it all off
I'm really tired

These might be for sale if anybody wants a set of tyres
Rear 18.4 -38 vredestein radial
Front a bit odball,,, 14.9 - 26 kleber cross-ply


More pictures to follow not finished pictures untill it's done I'm afraid,
If anyone is interested that is

Anything serious to look out for apart from Rodent disposal ?

You need to do the risk assessment stuff for rodent poison use and to show you aren't routinely baiting.

If u uses trailers for taking grain off farm write your assurance number on the sides and back

I don't have on farm storage so don't know if out new in there

I am sure there was something about a farm map as well

You can certainly turn your hand to most things on a tractor!

It's a case of you never know until you have a go.
If your creative enough it's amazing what you can do.

well put this way
looking at your pictures or emmerdale, coronation street

hard one

I'll admit to the embarrassment of calling a mechanic to a rough running issue that turned out to be the absence of said O ring, made worse by two of the ones that come on the bottom of the filter being on the thread. I'd assumed they did the sealing and were supposed to be there. Also I dashed out for a fire call whilst he was here and had to ring the poor lad to go in the house and turn the oven off.

They need to put a picture on the filter box of how to put the bowl on

Don't cart into a store off farm, so ok on that one do temp store on farm though

The farm map I have on pdf, so thats ok, easy to move that into the prepared file

I've run out of bait, and all the tubes on the bait stations are empty, so that sorts the routine baiting

or call a fitter out

Yes I got the impression from the way he went straight to the right size in his O ring selection box I wasn't the first... Apparently it's common for the O ring to stick to the filter and be accidentally discarded, and also the little seals to stick to the new filter. In personal defence, the first time I did my own servicing after the dealer's mechanic, there was already one in there.

Sometimes a little bit of knowledge is worse than none.
You also learn from mistakes.
Practice makes perfect

The worse job for me is removing plastic trims ,electrics, and jobs where you can only reach by a finger tip not being able to see.
Getting something off then into bits on the bench is a god send.

Also if your wanting to try something but unsure how YouTube has lots of tutorial videos.
I put a new screen in my phone just by watching YouTube vids a few years ago.

Most of the fuel filters I change have the. o-ring missing and the little rubber seal stuck in the glass bowl sometimes two. A lot o people don’t realise that the pump sucks fuel through that first filter (common rail only) so if the o-ring is missing it pulls air into the system, it doesn’t tend to leak fuel out so goes un notesed. It’s the first thing I check when there’s an engine running fault.

You really need to grab yourself a cheap video borescope to let you see what's out of reach then. Mine rarely gets used but, when it does, it pays for itself hands down.

We just had some bait in store but still failed as I hadn't done the risk assessment etc.

I did have all the bait records. I had to do a risk assessment basically saying I was doing nothing and then send it in

Handy in some cases a pain in others too.

Coming together nicely James. You haven't got fed up with the engineering quality yet then?

If only modern tractors were made as well
