there was a guy who had issues with this forum ,but he was the dozer guy Bob Rooks you can scan for old posts and there might be something you can use. Or find a way to find him he lived in washington state I believe. A wealth of knowledge.
I could not find to much info. so there is two types of these tractors that I know of one type that is usally the smaller ones uses a common sump, whereas there is one pump and one oil tank that powers everything(except the 4 wheel drive front axle fluid) . So everything would use like a aw-46 oil and the dip stick is on the trans. ( i have a 2005 dong feng le204a it is like this) the other has seperate pumps for the lift and the power steering each having its own seperate oil tank.(my 2006 foton ft504a is like this). so you might have to do some looking to determine what you have and go from there.
I think affordable tractor is in Tx. they use to be a sponser of this site. I think you need to split the tractor to see what has failed.
this is just a guess but I think you could just disreguard that part of the circuit if you have the glow plug engine diagram. just to be courious but what engine you have a Quanchi?
I would change it to a 2 inch mechanical gauge, if you do this do not use the plastic oil pressure line that comes with the kit buy copper tubing and associated fittings. some things are just better being simple, this is one of them.
pictures what pictures? like you say at this point what difference does it make ? or was that someone else that said that?
to save you a few bucks take the loader off before taking it to a mech. I am not sure about this but I think Northern Tool might be able to be a parts source for you, also price a flywheel just in case yours in heat checked badly and turning it wont get it corrected. It is a shame that a simple adjustment was not done earlier by the other owners ,this could have been most likely avoided.
As to setting the gap on the clutch I would use a piece of hardwood( like oak)to what ever length you think you need and rip on table saw to the width you want and check with a good measuring device. If I remember right some have had issues with the springs failing in the pressure plate, I hope this is not the issue, that is a tractor split. Get your clearances and try adjusting the clutch first but I do not know if it will help I keep going back to you stating there was a lot of pedal travel, that would indicate the clutch was engaging the flywheel whereas if there was no pedal travel the clutch was slightly held off the flywheel. good luck
I would get another person to push the clutch pedal in and out as you look at the linkages, maybe you can see a lack of movement giving you a idea of there is a pin failure. As I remember people in the past were using split pins and inserting one inside the other to give them a little more metal to help prevent breakage. where are you located? As I think about this if , as you mentioned you had a lot of play maybe that pin was cracked giving the excess play and then completely gave out. When you figure this out I would make sure that the clutch play is correct to make sure wear is made normal.
