    It is the factory cab top. I did damage the original from a tree falling on it (the tractor lives in a forest) and Kioti sent two replacements that were damaged in shipping and I offered $1100 for both of them. That has worked out because this tractor is now on its third cab top.

    I had initially disagreed with @ferddiubaldo4324. However, being the open minded person that I am and never one to think I have ALL (just most - smile) of the answers, I tried his method as described. His description of hand placement (3 point grip w/left hand) provides a very steady and controlled movement of the blade as you slowly move it against the wheel. I got very good and uniformed results with less effort and none of the spray of sparks while standing in front of the machine vs. to the side as had been the case. Additionally, the machine (Bradley S81-3) "DID" have stickers advising user to stand in front of machine (facing Bradley logo), when in use AND to use the "reverse" (counter-clockwise) direction of the wheel when sharpening from the left side of the sharpener (right-hand blade). Therefore, rotation should cause sparks to shoot out the bottom and NOT out the top. While most knives are always sharpened by moving steel away from the edge as to "part" it, manufacturer's stickers indicate moving steel toward the blade's edge. From now on, will be using the method outlined by @ferddiubaldo4324 and recommended by the manufacturer.

    Hi, I have been using that sharpener for over 15 years, you have it set up 90 degrees to the right in the wrong orientation. You should be facing the Bradley logo with your feet placed at 45 degree angle. Hold the non sharpening end of the blade with your right hand and the back side of the sharpening end with your left hands thumb, middle finger against the wing side with your forefinger pressing down from the top of the blade, your fingers should be in a 3 point stance and then moving the blade with a smooth front to back stroke. For your blades the wheel should grind and sparks toward the middle of the grinding wheel ( to the right). Walker Mowers have both a right and left turning blades so that the left turning blades are sharpened on the left side of the grind wheel and right turning blades are sharpened on the right side of the grind wheel turning toward the middle of the grind wheel, switch hands as described earlier.

    I suppose that can happen, but as a tech knowing the torque on the retaining nut is what, 250 ft-pounds and the spider is 290 ft-pounds and both are also held by 620 Locktite, it would take something weird to start to unscrew the clutch and a guy would see it if it were to happen.

    Hello Eric. Glad I found this video. I just bought a 1971 h80. There should be a guide on the tilt bucket cylinder that tells you where the bucket is. At least mine does. What’s that ticking noise when you accelerate. Exhaust leak??! Good luck with it. And finding parts for it.

    Thanks for watching! That bucket guide on my machine is long gone. On the other hand it didn't take me long to get used to the "feel" of the bucket as my machine has any number of jobs under its belt now. That ticking noise is likely a crack in the exhaust somewhere. I'm not too worried about it at this point. Parts wise, SP Smith is where to call. Also if you enter the part number in parts search on MachineryTrader, it will show who has NOS. Good luck!

    You might want to call the importer and also call all of the service managers of larger dealers so see if somebody has a parts tractor. Also, not all dealer parts prices are the same. I got a discount from one dealer for buying everything from them. The center support looks like mine (and may very well be the same part). To assemble You'll need a hydraulic press and a dial indicator that reads in 10,000 of an inch (not the one in the picture in this video) to do the gear lash and convert it (the ring gear lash is done by measuring on the axle and converting it with math so you need a very accurate dial indicator) and either a lot of experience or a fish scale for pinion pressure. I can walk you through it since your axle looks just like my own on my NX series.

    When it comes to most column work, a guy most likely needs a real mechanic. But given how Ford uses their center on the key position, a guy might get away with my fix-it.
