Here is the skinny on this machine, T5C, serial #5980117, haven't had any luck on finding the year either. I've worked on it, on and off, over the last year or so. Rebuilt the swing cylinders, new hoses, grease fittings, ect. It showed backup at the repair shop, the owner had loaded it on his dump trailer a while ago. He need to use the trailer and it would not start up. The owner wanted to fix it and sell it. The engine, 20 hp kohler over 4000 hrs, appears to be shot, one cylinder is toast, hopefully I have an ace in the hole as they say, I have a good 24 hp kohler that I acquired with a zero turn mower I bought last year. So I offered to buy it as is. To get it off the trailer I pulled the spark plugs and used the starter to power the hydraulic pump to run it off the trailer. Not the greatest way, but it worked to unload it. I suppose I could do it again to get it in the shop. But I got to thinking their must be someway to release the drives and save the starter. Thanks to you all I now have an idea where to look to release the drives. Their may be a by-pass valve or hose to unhook on the pump, to release it. Due to the crappy weather it may be a couple of days before I get a chance to check it out and will up date with what I find.
Thanks again
Jo

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
