donkeydale 0 #4 Posted September 22, 2012 Is there a releif valve on the hydro so it can be pushed around? I can't seem to find one and the wheels won't turn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wh500special 2,118 #5 Posted September 22, 2012 The little vert hydro's don't push very easily. On the transmission tunnel/console area on the left side is a little hydro release lever that de-tensions the belt when pushed down all the way. Push it down and latch it. The tractor will be about 0.5% easier to push. The cg's aren't very common, but they're also not very popular among collectors. They were the slightly revised version of the V7 and V8 line. For a vertical shaft tractor, they were surprisingly heavy duty. And, the Tecumseh engines in this series were far superior to the kohlers that were initially used. If it's in good shape, go for it. But economize as much as you can since the demand for these types isn't terribly high. Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
