The pump for the loader is belt-drive. Has anyone actually checked the belt? You'll find a lot of helpful info in this thread:

Well, it's red now! Inside will get black bed liner. Terry put the decal in the mail this morning. Sulky's next on the list.

Do a bit of research on KT 17 series 1 vs series 2 engines. The engine serial number should tell you which it is - this is the thing you need to research. The series 2 engines have improved oiling systems and are more desirable.

The 2005 550 was a 522xi in 2004

Thanks. I’m going to drive out Saturday to take a look. Bringing the trailer just in case. I’m thinking the single stage blower and new chains with the cleats are worth between $200- $300… they’ll fit my 418-A, so at least there’s that. Thanks again

Jeep for a plow lift I have 2 of those bought at engine shows. Single action cylinder but a double can be used just leaving the rod side connection as a vent
-
I immediately thought of a snow plow Don. Perhaps on a dump tractor build or a sxs dump box? So it would need weight of some sort to lower. Might be a hurdle. Maybe a toggle switch to run then feed a spool valve to run a double acting cylinder?

The left vertical post of the loader is the hydraulic reservoir. In the 1st picture you can see the suction hose that goes to the pump at the bottom the upright. In the 2nd picture you can see a galvanized pipe cap that is the fill, I don't see where you check the level When it does nothing, do you hear hydraulic fluid gargling like the pump is loosing suction, or any difference in noise from when it works and when it doesn't. Does the system have a pressure gauge, or a place to install one?

The opening on one of mine is 7/8" wide and 1 1/2" long. If you need a location I can measure that too....- 1 reply

Is it really the pump, or is the electric PTO clutch bad? My money's on the clutch.

The 417 - A also has the Eaton 1100 series hydro in it. Again, if it was maintained that is a very strong Hydro unit.

I doubt you will get 30 years out of any replacement capacitator. Actually I'd be amazed if you get 5. My AC guy says all the replacement are Chinese made even if they do have an American flag on the box. -
They say, nothing runs like a Deere, but I say "nothing works like a Horse, a Wheel Horse of COURSE!

I’ve seen many of those used as snowplow lift pumps, some had two valves if it was a power angle plow. Many were made by Monarch Hydraulics. I still have a newer version of that pump on the shelf.

Probablh 12v. Solenoid turns on the pump when the lever is moved to one side but not the other (see the spring.) I’d bet it was from a small dump bed truck with a single-acting cylinder. Lever one way turns on pump and lifts the bed. Lever the other way drains cylinder back to the reservoir. Dyna Might Grand Rapids

The built-in hydaulic for a GT550 is the charge pump for the Eaton 1100. Same as for most other hydro WHs of that era. Using that pump for a loader’s hydraulics would’ve required some knowledgeable messing with the stock plumbing and still has serious limitations. Too complicated and too many possibilities for a simple thread but the gist is that that pump has neither sufficient volume nor sufficient pressure to properly operate the large cylinders of that loader. That’s why an external pump, usually actuated by the PTO is the norm. (ARE YOU POSITIVE there isn’t one, because it sure looks to me like the plumbing is connecting to something behind the front grille.) If you can, do some tracing/photos of the hydraulic plumbing where it connects to/from the control valves and to/from bottom of the fluid reservoir in the left side sub-frame upright member and let us know. PM me and we can speak if that helps.

JCM started following 417-A Question

The 417-A is a KT-17 Series and not a Magnum. That is a lot of hours. If it has been babied you may be okay for 500 dollars. Great tractor.

Good afternoon. My friend is looking for a 1 1/8” 8 speed transmission with hubs in the CT area. He’s not wanted to pay too much for one but it needs to be ready to bolt in other then possibly some seals. Please let me know if anyone has anything. Thank you!

That's about as wore as Ive ever seen one.

fuzzystump started following 417-A Question
-
A 417-A just came up for sale near me…comes with a single stage low chute snow blower and brand new tire chains ( the nice ones with the ice cleats). Has 2,400 hours on it. He says it runs very strong, no issues. No smoke. Pics look nice…appears in decent shape cosmetically …he wants $500 I’d like some input… is that a lot for a Kohler magnum? Should I be worried about the hydro drive? Is about 1-1/2 hours drive from me… so I’d love some thoughts and input. Thanks!
