Tractor is lovely! It's ready for another 50 years work now! Nice to see new life put in to it. You are doing lovely jobs on them tractors. Are you into zetor tractors?

[@Mrgreendragon3]

thanks , yeah you could say we are " into " the zetors , we have 12 of them , 6 restored and 6 waiting to be restored . thanks for watching .

[@ilikesaws4068]

@@Mrgreendragon3Thanks for the reply. Well yeah that would go under the 'into them' catagory!😉 Do you have any experience in 6211 or 5211 zetors? Was just looking into buying one.

[@Mrgreendragon3]

@@ilikesaws4068 we have the older ones , the 2511 up to the 5611 etc , but they are pretty much similar underneath , things to look out for are the normal things on any tractor , brakes steering clutch etc. , the zetors have a very shallow sump so you may see some blow back if you pull the dip stick when the tractor is running , this is normal , they also tend to get a lot of abuse from owners and a lot of lads dont bother or forget to oil the diesel pump on them which leads to rough running and in certain cases hard starting , watch out for hunting on tick over as this is a sure sign and a badly worn pump due to lack of oil means a costly replacement .

[@ilikesaws4068]

@@Mrgreendragon3 Thanks very much for the fast reply and information. I'll look out for those things. Wouldn't want to be spending more money on a new pump. I did hear some of them were given alot of abuse. They should be a good tractor if well minded. Anyway thanks for the vid and keep up the great work with these machines👍
