550 Shop time

Author Message   Gknowlton Posted on Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 3:44 pm:    My little green darling is on it's way to the repair shop to fix the hydraulics. I never was this frustrated with a tractor before. Hopefully it is fixed before I am broke!   Super 55 Posted on Friday, September 26, 2003 - 10:24 am:    Take a look at this link http://www.geocities.com/dieseltempo/Oliver/pumprebuild.html   gknowlton Posted on Monday, October 6, 2003 - 12:10 pm:    My 550 is out of the shop and although poorer financially the tractor lifts and runs great. Naysayers about the internal hydraulic capability of the 550 should see what a fresh pump and high pressure cylinders can do. 5 ft bucket of wet dirt, no problem. 12 quart oil capacity and 4.5 gallon per minute is too small and to slow? Wrong again. Chris and Super 55, you were both right! Thank you for your help. P.S. Miabach cover plates do work!   Chris Losey (Admin) Posted on Tuesday, October 7, 2003 - 10:23 pm:    Glad to hear it's fixed. Just remeber to keep that hydraulic filter changed to protect your investment, and enjoy!
