There is a good chance that I might be able to buy a 830 three cylinder Diesel with loader this summer. The tractor is a long ways from me and I havent seen it yet. The owner died and his brother is the one that will be selling it and doesnt know much about the tractor. He believes that it has some hydraulic problems and that it is transmission related. I am waitng for a manual that I orderd (I&T) so that I have a better idea of what this tractor looks like on the inside. Is this a decent tractor for light loader work and is it prone to certain problems? Are replacement parts a problem to get? Do I need to bail out on this one and look for something else?Also, any idea how wide it is at the rear tires and how much it weighs so I know how big of a trailer Ill need? Please help me out here guys as all of my red tractors think it would be cool to have a new "Green" friend to play with. :)

The 3 cyl 830 was made in 1974 & 1975 in Germany. It is a good little tractor, however one weakness is the hydraulics as they have an aluminum case for the main pump (in front of the engine). These are more prone to wear than a cast iron case (other 30 series). Also there is a "pickup pump" in the transmission (not live). First I would change the hydraulic filter and check for evidence of wear. It could be that the filter is clogged. I have had experiance with two of these tractors and find them to be very dependable. They are a little small for loader work in my opinion.
Specs. are
PTO hp 35.30, Weight (13.6-28 tires - no ballast) 4285 pounds, Width 63.06in - 91.20in, over all length 133.42in, hope this helps,

Thanks for the input on the hydraulics and such, it will help me out here. I am assuming that the pump is drivin off of a timing gear in the front of the engine and not off of the crank pulley. I bought a manual off of ebay for only $8.00 dollars and thought that to be a cheap way to go on researching this tractor before I commit to buying it (manual not here yet). Thanks for the reply.

Steve
The main pump is driven directly off the crankshaft. Also you need to get the manuals from Deere - alot better than I&T.
Good luck, Sam
