  1. Torque for injectors

    Torque for injectors

    Just to standard M8 torque (appr 28 ftlb). If you are having this issue, I'd say your injector sleeve needs replacing. The sleeves are a shrink fit, to remove, tap the sleeve out with a large dia tap, and adapt a suitable bolt to a slide hammer. To install, heat the head up a little, and freeze...
  2. 5211 park brake

    5211 park brake

    No, the lever cover is easy to remove. Just pull off knobs on 3 levers, and remove the 13mm nuts holding the cover down. Then it is pretty easy to get in there to adjust the RH side park brake adjuster rod. Sounds to me like your cable may be seized. I know you said that you can move the lever...
  3. imported parts vs local parts?

    imported parts vs local parts?

    I am in Australia also, and mainly use Sparex parts ordered through my local dealer, usually available overnight. Sparex has most parts for Zetors, and are as good, if not better quality than genuine. David Evans should be able to source Sparex.
  4. Shift lever boot

    Shift lever boot

    Keep in mind the boot you are replacing it with has a hole in it anyway, it is the only breather the gearbox has. So replacing it is not going to keep water out, you just need to make sure you keep water away from that area. Don't block up the hole, the boot will likely pump up like a balloon or...
  5. 7211 steering pulling to right

    7211 steering pulling to right

    It will have the same effect if you fill the power steering with too heavy an oil. Use only ATF or a light hydraulic oil (32cst max).
  6. 5211 cylinders--Identification

    5211 cylinders--Identification

    Yes, if the park brake band is adjusted too tight, they will heat the drum up and expand it, then it is just a chain reaction to the point the tractor will almost stop. The park brakes work excellent, I only wish the service brake was a 10th as efficient as them! Oh, and never use the park brake...
  7. 5211 cylinders--Identification

    5211 cylinders--Identification

    They are srings to balance out the park brake actuation. If one side is adjusted up more, these compensate for it. They fill up with crud and don't work after a while.
  8. Zetor 5211 shifter boot

    Zetor 5211 shifter boot

    With a great degree of difficulty, I used a long prybar to push it down. Good luck!!
  9. 3320 Smokes and No Power

    3320 Smokes and No Power

    No, substandard machining on pistons and liners I think. Other 3 cylinders had no signs of grabbing. It was no.1 also, so it should be the coolest, unless the thermostat was stuck closed and opened suddenly, though it had been running for 8hrs before it happened. Both piston and liner were B...

    3320 Smokes and No Power

    I wouldn't work it until you have isolated it to a cylinder. Crack the fuel lines off one by one to see which one makes the least difference to find which cylinder is causing the heavy breathing. Then pull the head off to check the cylinder. That much from the breather isn't right, no amount of...
  11. Termostart

    Termostart

    Sounds like either compression, injection, or timing, or a combination. No way a 6245 should need any help at 0*c if it's mechanically good. My 7245 will start easily at 0, without any assistance whatsoever.
  12. Big Bale silage Which tractor?

    Big Bale silage Which tractor?

    I use a 7245 as my hay tractor, it handles 6' x 4' rounds easily on the loader with nothing on the back, so if you're making 4x4 baleage or even 5x4, it would handle it with ease I think. I would look at a 7745 turbo though, my 7245 wants for more HP making 6 foot bales or running the discbine...
  13. Fel pump shaft not turning?

    Fel pump shaft not turning?

    Better still. see if you can get a hold of a pully off a 2 series tractor (e.g. 6245 etc), as they aready have the threaded holes in it, with provision for dowels also. These holes are there to drive a front PTO, so the pully is plenty strong enough.
  14. Fel pump shaft not turning?

    Fel pump shaft not turning?

    Splines aren't designed to run dry, especially where there may be a chance of misalignment. You could try drilling and tapping a grease nipple in there somewhere, so the spline was lubricated.
  15. Fel pump shaft not turning?

    Fel pump shaft not turning?

    I assume you have a pump mounted in the front that is driven by the front crank pulley? If so, you'd find it easiest to remove the radiator for easier access, then unbolt the pump and move it out of the way, you should then see the problem easily. If it is set up with the front pump, this isn't...
