Hi, new to the forum having just inherited a 7245 (3000 hrs), and a 811 (2300 hrs).
Both are quite old, but have very few hours on them.
The 811 has a front loader fitted, which is far too heavy, so has been also fitted with a rear mounted 45 gal barrel filled with concrete as a counterweight (both of which i will be removing).
The 7245 has had some issues with starting, (which are now resolved after replacing the lift pump 3 times!). I have several jobs to do to the 7245, not limited to sorting excessive play in the steering, sourcing and stopping an oil leak from what i think is the rear transmission, rewiring the whole ancillary circuit and giving a full fluid and filter service. (And the brakes seem to stick after reversing uphill???)
I have a maintenance handbook for the 7245, but nothing for the little 811.
Will post some pictures as soon as I can (and i have given both tractors a wash).
