STX 535 quad powershift question, is this normal?

I have a 08 quad I just bought and it seems to shift weird especially when it skips gears, very noticeable from 6th to 8th and from 8th to 10th. If I shift one gear at a time the problem still is noticeable but not as much. When it shifts there is a lag, it seems as though the driving clutch pack disengages and the re-engaging clutch pack doesn't take hold soon enough and I feel a rough shift. The...

I will be using these quite a bit getting in and out of fields...

Pro 700 Sectional Control- Accucontrol

Hi,I just bought a 2012 NH 1070 Sprayer that I plan to pull with a 290 Magnum w/ Pro 700 Monitor.

All that came with the sprayer is a toggle box to manually turn sections on/off similar to the flexicoil controls, but there was...

1680 Rotor bars

I am working on a 1680. We got the rotor out and found that the middle row of straight bars are missing. All 4 of them are off. A couple of the mounts where they bolt up are pretty damaged.

Bourgault 4000 coil packer.

I bought a bourgault 4000 with two wings (52ft) this winter and went to unfold it and noticed it stays in the transport position until its unfolded.

Is this the way they operate or are they supposed to lower into field...
