Service jobs and parts

Engine oil and filter change

Engine · every 300 hours

The TS90/TS100/TS110/TS115 operator's manual (01/00) gives 300 hours as the normal engine oil and filter change. Halve it to 150 hours below -12 C or in arduous conditions; with diesel at 0.5 to 1.0% sulphur change every 150 hours, and at 1.0 to 1.3% every 75 hours. The 150-hour figure in older notes is the severe-use interval.

Step-by-step
  1. Run the engine to working temperature, then park on level ground, lower implements, stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels.
  2. Remove the sump plug and drain the hot oil. Wear gloves; hot oil burns. Refit the plug with a new washer.
  3. Clean round the filter, unscrew it and check the old seal came off with it.
  4. Oil the new filter's seal and screw it on hand-tight.
  5. Refill to the top mark on the dipstick, about 20.8 L.
  6. Start the engine and check for leaks and that the oil light goes out. Stop it, wait a few minutes and recheck the level.

Tools: Drain tray (25 L), Spanner for sump plug, Filter wrench, Funnel, Rags, Gloves

Fuel filter element change

Fuel · every 600 hours

The TS90–TS110 repair manual gives a fuel filter element change every 600 hours. Dirty fuel damages the Lucas DPS pump and injectors.

  2. Turn off the fuel and drain any water from the filter bowl.
  3. Remove the old element and clean the filter head.
  4. Fit the new element with its new seal.
  5. Turn the fuel on and bleed the system as your handbook shows, until fuel comes out free of air.
  6. Start the engine and check for leaks.

Tools: Filter wrench or spanners, Container, Rags

Dry air cleaner elements change

Engine · every 600 hours

The TS90–TS110 repair manual gives the dry dual-element air cleaner at 600 hours, or sooner in dusty conditions. Replace sooner if the restriction warning comes on.

Step-by-step
  1. Stop the engine and take the key out.
  2. Open the air cleaner housing and remove the outer element carefully so no dirt falls inside.
  3. Remove the inner element and wipe the housing clean with a damp cloth.
  4. Fit the new inner and outer elements and check they seat fully.
  5. Close the housing and check every hose clip between the cleaner and the engine is tight.

Tools: Clean rag, Torch

Transmission and hydraulic oil and filters change

Transmission · every 1,200 hours or every year

The operator's manual changes the transmission, rear axle and hydraulic oil every 1,200 hours or 12 months, whichever comes first: 56.8 litres with the 12x12 or 24x24 gearbox, 60.6 litres with the 16x16. The hydraulic filters are changed every 600 hours (the Dual Command transmission filter every 300 hours); change them when you change the oil if they are due.

Step-by-step
  1. Park level, lower the linkage and any loader to the ground, stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels.
  2. With the engine off, move the spool levers or joystick both ways to relieve pressure in the remotes, and lower the linkage fully.
  3. Let hot oil cool to warm before opening the drain plugs. Wear gloves.
  4. Drain the oil, change the filters, refit the plugs and refill to the level your handbook gives.
  5. Start the engine, work the linkage and remotes, then stop and recheck the level.

Tools: Large drain tray, Filter wrench, Spanners, Pump or large funnel

Coolant drain and refill

Cooling · every 1,200 hours or every 2 years

The operator's manual changes the coolant every 1,200 hours or 2 years, whichever comes first. Use 50% Ambra Agriflu antifreeze and 50% clean soft water; the inhibitor in it protects for the next 1,200 hours or two years.

PartQtyNotesPart number
Antifreeze150% antifreeze with 50% clean soft water. Ambra Agriflu (NH 900 A), 21.5 L system with cabcheck your handbook
Step-by-step
  1. Only work on a cold engine. If it is warm, wait, then open the radiator or header tank cap slowly to let pressure out.
  2. Drain the radiator and block, and dispose of the old coolant properly.
  3. Flush with clean water.
  4. Refill with the 50% mix, run the engine to warm up, let it cool and top up.

Known problems

Range lever cable seizing

The high/low range cable can stiffen or seize, often at its lower shroud, because many tractors were run mostly in high range.

Shuttle synchros and gear buttons

Shuttle synchros can get noisy (check forward/reverse changes standing still), and the buttons on the gear lever can fail. Jerky clutch packs can often be fixed by dealer recalibration.

Exhaust manifold cracking

The exhaust manifold can crack under the silencer mount. It can be repaired, but the exhaust stack has to come off to open the rear bonnet.

Four-wheel drive dog clutch

The front-drive dog clutch is prone to wear. Check 4WD engages and drives both forwards and in reverse.

Over-tuned engines

Turbo kits were often fitted. Tractors making well over 150 hp at the engine are best avoided, and the breather should be checked for blow-by.

Work lamp fuse holder

The work lamp circuit can melt its fuse holder, which is awkward to repair.

Repair guides

The full step-by-step guides are in Farmyard Workshop once you add your tractor.
