Never any harm to move up to more comfort. Just for info, the mower doesn't need to be left in float. Once dropped it will follow the ground itself.

We have a 4240, savage tractor, never gave a bit of trouble 25 years, until lately with the hydraulic pump going but even so couldn't fault the amount of work with it, the way I look at it a tractor is there to do a job and if it doesn't don't keep it, regardless of the colour. Think that is a love little tractor. Love the videos

You simply don't know the goings on of the farm so you will not understand but yes stock numbers are low currently as things are slowly changing hand. We have the room for much more expansion. We have a great stock bull there and a few great cows. I need more shed space and that's the unfortunate truth. I now have space in the hay shed unlike previous years where we had the shed filled with hay. But there is no security in that cos you never know when we get a massive crop of hay and fill it up. On too of that it would take some investment and drinkers. I plan to get a suitable shed up asap but again that take alot of money time and planning. But I'm trying my hardest! Thanks for watching but please consider the surrounding circumstances of the farm and the family before assuming what I need and don't need.

The hy-tran oil is a bit of an old wives tale. It was best suited to the hydro models that IH built in the 70s and early 80s where the transmission components were very sensitive. We've had numerous models of those Doncaster IH & Case IH models over the years with syncromesh and powershift transmissions. We only ever used standard 10W30 and never had any issues. Some lucky owner is getting a good tractor!

Sometimes it takes a few tractors to figure out what you really need. Atleast you worked on and figured out a lot of the issues. The only thing I'm not sure about is why the mower had to be in float. I just set mine and go. Good luck with the new one. Maybe a tour of the farm. Thanks for sharing
@IDoAgri3 жыл бұрын
Yeah I agree, people don't like the idea of getting rid of a 'Good' Tractor but looking at it as a machine I want something that can compete with modern tractors and can handle modern machinery. In regards to the mower. I have tried leaving the spool in neutral instead of float but I would be getting a very uneven cut with the mower. Float made it cut much more even and bare. Perhaps another issue from the case but I will see how it performs in the new tractor. I did a farm tour last year but I do plan to do another one soon to show the difference and more of the farm !

We had a brand new 4230 like yours back in 1996. It only lasted 4 year and we ended up taking the loader off and putting it on our older 856xl plus and bought an mx100c. My opinion was that the 4230 was the worst cheap tacky heap of junk case ever made! 856 was a hell of a tractor and it's replacement a cx90 was just as good.
