PM if you would prefer.

You will enjoy that manual. It very detailed and has a lot of pictures. A big help! I just got home from out of town, if you would like I can look in my manual and get you the procedure.

Its accessible from the bottom. There are 3 of them. Cant remember which is which. A manual has all of this info, they are very thorough for what you pay for one.

Best thing to do is to adjust the clutches and brakes per the factory service manual if you havent already. Then if you still have trouble it will be a lot easier to determine the problem. Might even find something while your in there. Its very easy to do, anyone with enough sense to be running a do...

I wish I did too. I cut a pad for a mobile home on the side of a hill a while back and wouldnt you know it I hit clay nearly immediately. Glad I had my mini-ex handy, I just went and broke the clay about a foot deep with it and then cut the pad to level with the loader. Could have done it on just th...

I believe I read they are somewhere around 10500 lbs.

Stan, look in the "Birmingham ALabama cragislist". Under Farm and garden search for "Chisel PLow". Look at the only ad that comes up, "farm equipment for sale". That guy has a tow behind box blade for $800. Not sure if its exactly what your looking for but its a start. Your only half a long day away...

I think that may only matter on a 450C.. Thinking all the 350C's were common.

Slipping coupler? Does the engine load up at all?

Not sure if this applies to your 450, but on my 350B you have to follow the adjustment procedure from start to finish to gain the correct results. Its tempting to use the manual to determine which nut turns the brake adjuster, but that really does solve the matter of how to adjust them properly. Try...

All good suggestions. Rather than weld full length I planned to weld the front of each bar 4" on each end and the back 4" in the center. IT appears someone has tried this repair on this machine once before but they welded rebar on a FEW pads and only one bar per pad. THey have long since worn off. T...

Never runs on hard surfaces.. Only time is will see concrete is when it comes into the shop to be repaired. In reality it sees a LOT of time running around in the woods or turning a manure pile. I will maybe start with the front and rear bars and work my way to the middle later. Thanks for the sugge...

I have searched and cant seem to find an appropriate answer. My 350 pads are worn out, the bolt heads (new rails) stick up higher than the grouser bars. Mine is a loader, and therefor has the triple grouser pads. I would like to add more height to the triple bars. My plan is .500 square stock cut in...

You mean .5 1.0 and 1.5 seconds right? I recently adjusted mine without a gauge installed. I cant help with pressure numbers but a 1/4 of a turn made a lot of difference in mine.

Took LeonardL's advice and played with the reverser rate of shift screw. I backed it out 1/4 round and then proceeded to push up the compost pile. Loader is definitely better. It will take off in all 4 gears now on flat ground. I can start in 3rd on an uphill slope as well. Didnt try high on a hill ...
