Gave the old thing a service today. I’ve had that tractor up for sale for 4k for two months and not even an offer so it can stay, it’s only got 1200 hours. I don’t know why Iseki are so cheap, they are well specced with a shuttle, 4wd, 16 gears in four ranges including creeper. Two spools with float. It’ll probably be a nice tractor to run the 1.6m flail on for fieldwork, or the chain trencher.
What with the alpine being so useful, it makes me wonder why I bought the Kubota! Guess I might pick up a bit more mowing work plus it’s a really nice manouverable tractor for things like flail collecting in gardens.
So full fluids change on the tractor, new check chains, change the hydraulic outlets to flat face, fit a steering wheel spinner knob and some weights on the front plus treated her to a new battery. The professor got an oil and filter change plus a tickle up on the chain- goes through oak like butter now.
