Power Steering Added To Deere 1020
Ken Haag, Unionville, Mich.: “I added power steering to my Deere 1020. To do it, I had to remove a steel ball bearing pressed into the transmission case. It was deep. I used a small chisel to get enough clearance to weld a nut onto it and used a slide hammer to remove it. Worked great.“I have a bucket truck fitted with an Onan generator that would not stay running. It would start for a few seconds and then shut off. The circuit board that controls it has a relay that is energized by the voltage output of the generator but the ‘seal in’ contacts had failed. They were opening after a few seconds. I solved the problem by just ‘jumpering’ around them with wire, saving a few hundred bucks.”
