Hoooooooney, i go Shopping ....

 

 

 

 

- for the Hooooorrseee .😇😎

Ok, there existing sentences you better keep to yourself.. 😂

 

Jump shortly to a Hardwarestore, to find some needed Things.

Firstly to fix loosened drain oil Screw i organized few Fittings 3/8“ identical ones, as i used on my 212.

ok a Galvanized will maybe work also, but i must have a bit of Crome somewhere on my Machines.

like a good old statement „ you only can Trust it with Chrome and Flames“, i like it...

some fresh Oil for a First refilling here of the Whole Horse

I don‘t know something about rotella as some here mentioned,

here at my side i prefer Liqui Moly Oils with best experiences over decades.

5W30 for the tecky shall be fine, i hope he like it 

and 2 Bottles with 85W 90 gearoil for the Unidrive.

If i be correct the Unidrive must have 1quart in that‘s close 1Litre. 0,9 Litre to be exact.

i think it would die with one Liter in the Tranny

 

2 Bottles of Brake cleaner to remove some old Grease and oil spills.

 

 

 

than while im lurking arround what they have arround Colors a red blitzen into my Eye i do immediately a stop and found that Beautiful Rubin Red and i decided to choose the Color combination, i will use for her new Finish.

Rubin Red ( RAL3003). Deepblack (RAL9005) and a bright grey close to whilte( no RAL)

 

i searching arround the Whole Colorpallette they have and love that Combination i put firstly on the Side.

In my Mind i can see the Result, and i think it looks beautiful.

Corrected red is ral3003

I know this one is not right, and I want to make mine original as possible, I can tell from my pics, and tear down today, its not how WH would do it. Also the cable routing for the throttle

 

Thanks, john

I tried to wake up the little one in the bottom of the shroud, but I think he was off to mouse heaven 15 years ago

tractorhead, amazed to see someone refer to LUBRICATION AS A THING TO DO ON A TRACTOR , WHAT A CONCEPT ! also jack up the front end to properly grease the front end axle lower area , usually starved for lube, your pictures of numerous areas of lighter fluid lubricant to rusty movement areas says it all. i regularly use the LUCAS LUBRICANTS , because they really stand up . thank you for the view on that , pete

The tractor was built before the incredibly dumb idea to use soy based insulation.

Gave mine some exercise mowing the lawn today.  Swapping over to studs on the rear hubs is floating closer to the surface.  Maybe that will happen this week.

@Tractorhead I am so glad it cuts well for you, and to see the pictures in the forest!  Can you see now the feeling of the horizontal shaft engine and it’s brute abilities?  Great work on getting it going again!
