cleat 7,805 #153 Posted 8 hours ago Hydro cam follower arm ready to install. Hydro cam follower arm installed. I put a tint bit of never seize on the male threads but kept the taper dry. Nut tightened by hand (I was afraid an impact would over tighten and possibly crack the arm on the taper) while holding the arm so as not to break anything in the hydro unit. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cleat 7,805 #154 Posted 6 hours ago (edited) Hydro speed control cam plate assembly ready to install. This machine will have foot control so no tension washers are needed. Instead, I punched out some Teflon washers so cam plate will pivot freely. Hydro speed control cam plate spacers installed onto studs. Hydro speed control cam plate lower washers installed. Hydro speed control cam plate sat into place. Hydro speed control cam plate bushing greased and ready to install. I also put a little never seize on the studs. Hydro speed control cam plate upper washers and bushing installed. Hydro speed control cam plate locknuts installed. Nut on bushing stud was firmly tightened. Nut on washers was just turned in until there was little to no free play but the plate will pivot side to side freely. Hydro speed control eccentric cam ready to be installed. Hydro speed control eccentric cam installed and rotated so large side faces the long slot on the cam plate as per the manual. Bolt tightened. You will need a 1" and a 1/2" wrench to do this. Tractor overview as of today. Edited 6 hours ago by cleat 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
