Hi , I spent a week trying to loosen the stop pins on the right wheel and finally got them out today when I got an eight point socket on an electric impact hitting on them for a couple of minutes each . Then I put that wheel on an old crib foundation , pressed hard on the left brake and - nothing . Wheel just spun on the concrete . I tryed dumping the clutch , forward , backward , 5th and over and 1 and under - nothing . Did the manual forget something ? Am I supposed to loosen the rim bolts ? They don't look rusty but they do look like they wedge out against the rails . This looks like a risky proposition since they are 18.4 - 34's filled to top with calcium . If I have to loosen them how do the rims get centered again ? Any suggestions appreciated . Take care . ...Randy

PS; I haven't tryed the left wheel yet but the stop bolts came right out on that side .

Randy, I have those power adjust wheels on my 1650. All I use mine for right now is making hay, so I don"t really need to mess with moving my wheels yet. Keep us informed on how things go.

Are you still living near Clarkville? I"m thinking of moving up that way, near Allison. I"m hoping to get up that way in a week or two to look for possible jobs. You do construction work, right? I"ve had my class B CDL for 6 mo. now and I"m really enjoying the driving part, are there any dump truck outfits in the area? Is there much work out that way, or is most of it near Waverly and Waterloo?

Hi Rich , Sorry it took so long to respond , busy ya know . Give me a call when you get here ( 319-240-2160) I don't how the job market is near Allison . But I think you may be right about Allison not having a lot of jobs available . You might also check with some of the ag companies around the area . Do you have an air brake endorsement ? If not you might think about it . Keep in touch .

I got the bolts loose Saturday after rattling on them with a 1/2" drive electric impact for over 2 minutes on each bolt . I had PB Blaster on them daily all week . They finally came out kicking and screaming the whole way ;) . I haven't tryed loosening the rim bolts yet . I think I'm going to take it to work and use the one inch impact and the forklift to get them centered again or I may heed the advice of the other post's and leave them alone till it's time to plow again . Right now I need it as narrow as possible for cutting hay in a couple weeks . Take care . ...Randy

I understand the being busy part, just had to help my brother and his family move, and go turkey hunting whenever I could, and work, and get ready for haying season. I have quite a few cousins in the Allison-Bristow area, the neighbor of one of my cousins farms close to 1,000 acres and might be needing some full-time help. Yes, I have the air brake endorsement on my class B. I"ve allways liked dump trucks, and after driving for a lumberyard for the last 6 mo., I"ve had to deal with alot of the same problems they do. Seeing how I"m young and single, the hours don"t bother me, but the allmost certainty of being laid off in the winter I don"t care for. I might give you a holler the next time I get up that way, might be this weekend.

Hey Rich , I'll be around all weekend most likely . I'm rebuilding the gearbox on the 990 moco . Output shaft seal decided to let loose right after I changed the lube in it last Sunday night . I haven't even had a chance to check out the baler yet . But I did do some work on it the last couple of weeks . The way the grass is growing I'll get a first cutting in two or three weeks . I hope it doesn't bud before then . Later ...Randy

It will be really hard to get the wheels perfectly centered again, so you will probably have to deal with a little wobble. My dad moved the rims on our 285 once, and they've wobbled ever since. It's not too bad, but it gets worse when we put the duals on...

Yes you have to loosen them up, loosen each bolt the same amount. Those bolts are what hold the rim to the center, they have to be loosened. Mine on my 1755 took awhile the first time, but now they go pretty easy and they are loaded to the max.... Good luck, Marc
