Hello all. I am absolutely ecstatic that I am an 8N owner finally. Have always wanted one and now ...
So the fine machine I have previously had a Minneapolis Moline Super Six trip loader on it. The previous owner is a nice guy and gave me all the info he had but said "I didn't want to mess with it" regarding the way the loader was plumbed off the right side of the frame. So the loader (apparently) ran off of the three point hydraulics and the top bolt above the dipstick with a fitting to the hydraulics.
I am sure there are a few of you who know all this and are just waiting for me to get to the issue.
The issue is that a live hydraulic loader is now installed (pump off front of crankshaft) and the three point doesn't work because oil spews out of the old fitting.
SO, do I pull the fitting out and replace it with a proper bolt? What do I do with the old knob on the right front of the seat that was used to direct/redirect fluid to the old loader?
I would like to remove the whole works and put this loader on another 8N I have acquired and sell the whole package as a working unit.
So if anybody has info or a link to a manual I would appreciate it. I will be on here more and thanks to all of you who have kept the N knowledge going.
