Hi everyone
I am looking to buy a Zetor and have found a 7711, don't know the age but they were made between 86-92 as far as am aware.
Dealer says 2086 hours, but am sceptical as this tractor has well worn goodyear 16.9 x 30 radials on back.
I would prefer the smallest 4 cylinder Zetor as I have light work to do and on softish ground, but can not find a reasonable one, seems people like them because of their efficiency, I had a Zetor Crystal that was fantastic over the same ground so the weight alone is not my main consideration.
My questions are,
1./Does the 7711 have separate heads for each cylinder.
2./Does the 7711 have frost plugs inside the head that if they leak causing water to enter the oil.
3./Does the dual clutch drive the hydraulic pump and as such would cause the pump to turn rather slowly if the clutch plates were to slip under hydraulic load, such as tipping a trailer.
4./Can the hydraulic pump be disengaged like on the Zetor Crystal.
5./Does the 7711 have disc brakes like a Crystal or shoe type brakes, and can one tell this from just looking, for example is the brake cylinder outside the housing like on the Crystal for disc brakes and perhaps inside the brake housing for the shoe type.
6./Is the pto mechanically driven or is there a pump that drives it.
And in general are these tractors easy to start, my experience has been that in most all cases an easy to start engine usually goes on to be a good performer, less something goes pair shaped when it heats up of course.
Is there an over load for starting, or are heaters installed as default.
This tractor has 16.9 x 30 back tires, is this the norm or has someone changed from the originals, I ask because looking at the picture on the dealers site it does not have much room to put
for instance a new set of 16.9's on, this is a concern as 14.9 are becoming scarce, the tyre people tell me they are charging the same price and in some cases more depending on brand as they are not a good seller any more, and on top of that I don't want to buy wheels for the narrower tyre.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you kindly.
