I just did the hydraulic service yesterday. Mine has a molded hose leading to the suction screen. Those clamps took most of the time I spent. I’m doing the fuel filters today and just found your channel. Great job. I wish I had found you a few days earlier. 😏
I noticed when you started the tractor up the air cleaner is moving quite a bit. Ive seen other videos that the mount on the valve cover on those older modle 1025s can crack and break the vavle cover and drop peices down in the air intake. The make a conversion that changes the filter housing location and mount. Mine is a later model with the housing up front.
I noticed even with the petcock turned to closed that your filter was still dripping fuel. Mine did the same thing. After I changed my fuel filter, my tractor has difficult time starting up. I'm wondering if it has something to do with this?
Sounds like a bit of air in the fuel line, usually clears up within a few seconds. Also make sure the filter housing is on tight and not allowing any air in it
So this specific tractor doesnt need to be primed manually after you change the filter? THe tractor will fill bakc up the filter before you start it up? Just curious because I seen another video of a tractor, where the guy primed the fuel filter by just keeping the filter loose and letting the fuel leak out some before tightening it up, to keep air from getting into the lines.
Turn the key on and let the pump prime the filters before starting, you can crack the main filter to help get air out, but all you really have to do is turn the key on and let the pump fill the 2 filters.
Did you get rid of your John Deere 870? Your the only one who really posts videos about it lol. Possibly buying one with a loader+bucket and a 3 point tiller+landscape rake so I’m excited
I actually looked for months to find a loader for the 870 and there were zero available so I ended up buying another johndeere 1025r with a loader. Regrettably to this day I sold the 870, if I had the room I would have kept it.
@@PovertyPointCustoms Yeah ive heard they can be tricky to find. the one im looking at has a model 80 loader and hasnt been serviced in six years yet still works fantastic with i want to say 2250 hours on it. It always happens when you build a shop or barn, you think you have plenty of space but it runs out quickly. Never big enough lol. in your past videos that thing was so shiny it seemed like your pride and joy lol. How would compare the 870 to the 1025r? is it faster/more powerful?
I'd say that's the first filter change, so changing every fluid and filters on it. Its my new toy, that way I'll be on my own maintenance schedule, doing all the service minimum yearly (I'd probably put 50 hrs or so a year on it)

Thanks!
Great video for when hubby is gone and the mrs has to work on the tractor
Thanks 👍
The tractor 🚜 must be sooo happy!
It is!
Take strap loose that holds fuel lines under foot gives you access to clamps plus slack in hose
Great tip, thanks

You can buy a conversion kit, I may look into it, they are about $400.00.

That was pretty dirty, and the water in your separator would be concerning to me. Do you use the type of conditioner for water?

@@PovertyPointCustoms could you install a drain on the bottom of the canister to release dirt and water?
Counterclockwise
