Guy i know here, just bought a Puma 260. Reverse drive conversion was done at an Austrian Case/Steyr specialist.. no factory option. Tractor is running a wood chipper with loading crane. So then, why would Zetor bother about reverse drive on a 4 cylinder farmers tractor when even CNH doesnt...

I made my own to pull the gear range layshaft out of my 3011. Piece of C channel with a 17mm hole and two legs, M16 rod, a piece of 1" tube with a ring of 1 1/4 welded around it, then ground the end into four quarters. Put a wheel nut with the chamfered end against it so when i tighten it with...

MCAE systems 3D printed the prototype cab panels for Zetor: it is a great way of getting a feel of the design, without investing time and money in vacuum molds for forming the plastic parts. Wooden forms can be used for small batches, but they cant stand the heated plastic on them for that many...

So, apart from using the same components as Deutz Fahr, they also use the same names ? So they arent going to sell a Zetor, but a red and cheap Deutz ? Can they actually make them cheaper as Deutz ? Sounds like a poor business plan. If you are working for the same cost as Deutz Fahr but with a...

Thats only if there is a shutoff valve that throws the compressor outlet to ambient air when the tank is full. When theres no air tank, this shutoff valve isnt mounted either. If you leave it pushing against the blindcap where you can attach a tire filling hose, damage to the key in the...

Yes, the UR5 was a brand new gearbox with two overdrive gears like Fendt 300 series. Or so ive heard. Prototypes only.

No, i am not talking about UR1 Super but JRL Proxima: there was mention of a three cylinder 3.1 liter UR3 engine as base model, in the first brochures. Konedata.net even mentions them, although they were never advertised nor built and only existed in early brochures printed before the Proxima...

I read 80 liter max flow. Your 3340 will either have a 30 or a 40 liter pump.

I wouldnt tinker too much with the steering housing, they all go bad and sour. 20 years ago the price for a rebuilt steering housing was 600 Euro, an orbitrol conversion kit costs less than that today. Orbitrol conversion is pretty simple on an 8011, there are kits for this purpose. The...

Did they ever sell it ? Proxima 5441 was also listed in early brochures but its never been produced. 7341 Super was sold as 84hp here. With the efficiency of the straightforward gearbox, it should have about 76 PTO hp then. But most Zetors spew out a bit more hp when properly broken in. Also...

Just another example: Dodge trucks had a 4% market share in pickup trucks. The pickup truck engineering staff was let off, so they sent a Dodge with the most powerful 360 cubic inch V8 to Cummins engineering facilities so Cummins could fit their own engine in the engine bay and test it...

There was a Maxterra prototype with FPT for sale on a Czech ad website last year. So far in the past 22 years, HTC management of Zetor has been pretty catastrophic. Poorly developed tractors like the 11441 scared away customers to other brands, postponement of the Maxterra required to keep...

Ive been there in 2005. Pictures of 25A and 3011 pulling a 20 ton load of timber. I think theres one Valmet 15 among the Zetors.

I have never done business with them so i dont know. Can you call them ?

How tight is the rollpin connecting the pto lever to its shaft ? When they get sloppy you often get lost in the gear positions. Replace with new rollpin filled with another rollpin, or simply tap a 3 inch nail in it, thats about the right diameter
