You will get a good bit of info here from folks who know much more than I do but I will get started and try to help some. For the hours there should be a dial on the dash that looks like the odometer of a car. It keeps track of hours on the engine just like the odometer keeps track of miles on a car. If it is not working your manual should tell you how to fix it. Most of the time when they stop it's the cable. After setting you might want to change all the fluids, every thing from the antifreeze to the rear end oil. Once you get them change you will know what you have and if your proofmeter (fancy name for hour meter) is working you will know when they all need change again. A few tops on the hoses, first only take one off at a time. With a back hoe you have several lines and just like spark plug wires take'n only one loose at a time will keep down on head scratch'n and cuss'n. I love my local New Holland (new name for blue tractors and where you will need to go for some parts) dealer and you will get to know yours aswell and I hope you like them. With that said unless you have more money than Davy Crockett don't go in there with a list of all the hoses you need, you won't like them when they get to adding that up. I am lucky here in coal country every town with a stop light has a good hydrolic shop. Any good industrial shop can make you hoses the size, lenght, and with the tips you need for a fraction of the cost of one at the NH dealer.

If you look down the list of talk forums here and click on the ford forum you will find some great guys who know a great deal about most every ford tractor ever made. Some of them don't read this forum much and they will be of great help if you have any more more specific questions.

Good luck.

Dave
