Repair guides

Hard starting or loss of power: fuel and air filters (BF6M 1013 engines) (Moderate, 45 minutes to 1 hour): Engine slow to start, power loss, black smoke, or the yellow air filter light on the Infocentre.
Valve clearance check (BF6M 1013, Agrotron TTV / 200 / 210–265) (Hard, 3–4 hours): Ticking from the rocker cover, loss of power or rough running, or the valve clearance check is due.
Transmission or hydraulic filter warning lamp: filter changes between oil changes (Moderate, 1–1½ hours): Transmission or hydraulic filter warning lamp, slow lift, sluggish hydraulics, or a newly bought tractor with no service history.
Low brake or clutch fluid, soft pedal: use the correct oil (not DOT fluid) (Moderate, 1 hour): Brake or clutch reservoir low, long or spongy pedal, warning lamp, or the 2-year fluid change is due.
