Could be out of adjustement, but more likely the clutch is stuck.
Send me an e-mail, I found that part you were looking for.

I just found a pic of the 227 gauge in teh 2010 servicemanual. Not sure if it is the updated one or not, but the one in the pic definitely does not mirror the JD7 on the back side. According to the service manual, one side of the gauge does engine and steering on the 2010 crawler.

Bill,
I don't remember off the top of my head, but I wonder if it is for 2010 clutches. EIther that or it already mirrors the JD7 gauge. When I get one, I will compare it to a JD7 gauge, then we will know for sure.
Lavoy

Bill,
You can't, the new 227 gauge already has tabs on the other side.

As soon as they are done, I will post in the shop of Deere's.

Bill,
The new sub number gauge is still available, all of a hundred dollar bill. I am supposed to have one coming that is being loaned to me for patterning, but nothing as of right now.

There was aftermarket loader or two, but an MC is just not stable enough to handle a loader, and the undercarraige will not tolerate for long either. If you want a loader crawler, get at least a 40, and 5 roller only.

I am working on repros, can't give you a definite date, but I am woking on it.

I use Mobil 80W-140 SHC synthetic in all of mine, but plain old 80W-90 will be just fine.

Mike,
I have at least one, should have another.

One thing on batteries is to make sure they are quoting you CCA, not CA, that is a new trick they started doing a few years ago. As to cables, teh bigger the better. A 1010/2010 has a really long cable to start with, I personally would not use anything under #1. Just don't buy the auto parts/Wal Mar...

I don't remember exactly how it worked, but I think the loader on one side of the country were called ATECO, and on the other side they had the Greenville Steel Car Company name on them. All of the literature I have lists only the ATECO name as far as I remember.
Lavoy

There were almost too many loaders to count, Lord, Henry, Davis, ATECO, Greenville Steel Car Company, Wagner, and a host more that I have forgotten.

The #24 scarifier was a 3PT scarifier that was used on the crawlers. It is shown in the manual for the #64 blade on a 440.

Bryce,
Need to look at it first, but my guess is it will die. Need to find time to go out there, will take a day and a half pretty much.
