Have you tried the "home" of Track Marshall's? Crawfords in Lincoln shire.

Hi john
Not as yet but will try them tomorrow
There must be one about somewhere !
Thanks

Probably plenty in the brambles, but finding them, how about Facebook, there are many different groups, even a dedicated Track Marshall group. Vintage plant etc? Search and sign up and ask.

Thread hijack but how do the oil coupler fittings work on back , do you have to screw quick release couplers onto the treads under these caps .

And is there some kind of diverter valve so blade can be lifted and use single spool to operate the rear services

What would you be willing to pay, for the right money I might sell the one off our 55.

Check out Dowty couplers

Of course , not had close look at the fittings , twigged now be like piping up on back of old fergy , maybe not to much of a job to get them active , doubt they have ever been used on back of this one before much, if at all , only acquired recently

Is it obvious to find on these if follow linkages back from controls

There will be a big threaded bolt on rear of final drive hub at about 1 o’clock with a large locknut on it.these tighten or loosen the brake band Which may be knackered.if I’ve confused you post a pic at rear of machine.

Know nothing about these personally as only recently acquired machine thru a hand me down, I'm all ears .
Are the link arm kits available for the back of these or are they hens teeth?

Anyone got a TM70 they don’t want?

Thread revival again
I've been trying ( unsuccessfully) to get an Exactor fitting to fit the back of my TM 55 orange ,5 roller model .

The one off the shelf is just not quite the right fit but is very close , had been told today there maybe an industrial type Exactor to fit it with it being industrial with blade on front .

I'm at a loss where to look for another type of Exactor fitting , other than changing it all to quick fit which looks a ball ache with location of fittings , any ideas TIA
