Hi, I'm hoping someone can help point us in a direction. We just bought what my hubby thinks is a TO30 (but could be a T020), factory rear loader, $1900 made in (or around) 1954. The thing will NOT pick up more then about 100lbs of sand in its 7 ft bucket. :( The tires are about 50% tread but they just spin. We live on a hillside of decompossed granite, he was trying to just fill the bucket by digging into the soft exposed sand on the hill, while the tractor is on the flat yet semi soft sand. Tractor is not 4whd. Any ideas? The guy we bought it from sold us a real song and dance, knew we were clueless. :( Found TONS of stuff wrong, but hubby got it working enough to try it out and then it ended up a failure. When trying to push it to pick up the sand, the engine keeps wanting to stall. Could it be too little tractor, something wrong with the tractor, too little traction from the tires or? Did we overpay real bad? Gads, nothing like learning the hard way, and being someones "dupes".
