every winter when it gets cold and snows and i need to go plow out the drive.this sucker wont crank cause the starter is always froze.,but last night i started it up and tried to raise up the loader and 3 point and they wouldn't work.so i had to put the salamander blowing on it for a couple hrs.finally the 3 pnt worked but my loader would only try raising on one side until it sat for a couple more hrs with the heater on it.what a pain in the rear

I would drain the hydraulic fluid (when the fluid is warm) and make sure your engine oil is ok for winter-say 5w-30 or so.

I don't know the specifics of your tractor however you may also want to change out the gear & pto oils if you have not done so in the last 6 months. Castings and varying temperatures have a way of drawing in lots of water over time. My tranny oil in my Ford 2N will turn milky in 6 months and have a bit of water too. I can't wait for a heated garage.....
