    The front axle needs 80w90 and needs to be half full. Both ends needs to be filled to the thread of the filling plug. Also 80w90. Transmission needs 10w30stou. I'm from Europe so I don't know if you have the same oil specs over there. Good luck men! It looks like someone filled the transmission with 80w90 or is it so thick from the cold? 😊

      Keeping a equipment inside of at least under cover certainly helps keep equipment in much nicer condition for much longer time and more importantly it prevents you from getting a wet ass in the morning and or after a rain or snow shower. I don’t know about you but I hate getting my ass wet unless there is a damn good reason.
      Have a great day and a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

    I own 2 1920 ford newholland tractors and rebuilt the front 4 wheel drive front axle with all new bearings and seals you could put oil in the axel and it would pour out the final drives and on the ground. After rebuilding I put 80/90 weight gear oil in axel and final drives filled up to the opening .The part man at ford said the oil will go into the final drives from the axel and it does but very slowly .It passes through a cover on a bearing to make Its way down .

They would be in a creat you put the wheels on a d put the loader on fill all fluids we never had any problems. Ford made awesome tractors. There pickup trucks oh well what can I say . All we did on those tractors was maintenance. Construction company's and farmers bought those tractors. Great on fuel. Don't know why they stopped making them .Denis from Santa Rosa CA

    You guys have to know that’s a Yanmar! They were the same machine basically since the late 70s/early 80s! Things you don’t do with them, is run them out of fuel, unless you like to bleed the system from tank forward, you don’t fck around with the air filters, use the right stuff & the right washers! Also, don’t slip the clutch! Because they can get burnt up in less then 50hrs on them, with a moron running it!

    Very few glow plugs go bad on these units - it is the relay. you will greatly extend the life of your front tires by turning them around backwards. you won't loose any traction, but the wear is greatly reduced especially with a loader. the 1715 was an "economical" version of the Ford compact tractors. The "full blown" version is the 1720. It has more gears and you could get it in a hydro which was awesome. You have a great little tractor that should last at your house as long as you want it to stay there. A good tractor to teach your grandkids how to drive in the future!

  • @showcattle07
    @showcattle07 5 місяців тому +1

    Great tractors. They’re hard to bleed the fuel systems, which you found out. They’re also cold blooded. You have to use the glow plugs even if it’s 80° out, for the first start of the day. If it’s parked in an unheated building, they can be a real bitch to get started in winter. Heat lamps and/or torpedo heaters required. Ford should have put a block heater in standard.
    They only require four fluids: diesel, coolant, 15W-40 engine oil, and NewHolland 134 fluid or equivalent.
