Disconnect the starter side of the solenoid (big wire going to starter) and then you can hookup battery and troubleshoot the issue with a simple automotive lamp tester.

Lower inside of each brake drum housing is a slot for adjusting. Typical brake drum pad adjustment wheel is behind the slot.

Suggest you remove wheel and brake drum to inspect pads. Typically what happens is axle seal leaks trans oil and brakes slip.

It's nothing special, just what ever engine oil is soecifued.

1: Disconnect the battery 2: remove the seloniod (I just unbolted and unscrewed it from the starter and left the wires on it so I wasn't trying to guess what went where later when I get back to reassembling it.) 3: you have 2 bolts at the rear of the starter (the part of the starter that faces the front of the tractor.) You unscrew them to take the starter out. BE CAREFUL - if you pull the starter apart it will be a bear to get the brushes back in. I had the additional problem of the "bendix" (the part that engages the flywheel) jumping over the flywheel so I needed to remove the bolts on the canister to the left of the starter and move it slightly out of place in order to complete the project. You may not have to do that but I mention it as a aid because I don't know why you're changing out starters. In my case I found that although the starter was spinning the shaft was being chewed up because the engager (bendex - whatever its called) had jumped the flywheel and was resting against the flywheel. Really needed extra space to pull the starter because of that. Also saw somewhere that that bendix needs to be drawn in in order to reinsert the starter (something about having to spin it in??? I'll be looking for that shortly myself.

I am not familiar with the model but I have some experience with the PTO fitted to truck gearboxes for various purposes. These are fairly crude spur gears and consequently are designed to be engaged only when needed and can be damaged if the vehicle is driven at road speeds with the PTO engaged. The PTO can be a simple mechanical drive via a propellor shaft or direct to a hydraulic pump, water pump or generator and engagement is a matter of sliding an idler gear into mesh between the gearbox layshaft and the PTO and this is accomplished by manually operated rod or cable, switched vacuum, air pressure or electrical means; motor or solenoid. It is easier to discover what is wrong if you first discover how it is supposed to work.

Transmission fluid level.

Here is a forum that may help you set the timing. https://www.yesterdaystractors.com/cgi-bin/viewit.cgi?bd=ford&th=411307

You may have an oil leak and the pto clutch is getting oil soaked.

A flooded engine won't fire, even with starter fluid. If it doesn't fire with proper air/fuel mix, reasonable compression, and spark, then you're only left with timing. Suggest you remove all the spark plugs and rotate engine until cylinder 1 is near TDC of the compression stroke (use a finger to cover spark plug hole 1 to tell when in compression stroke instead of exhaust and a screw driver down the plug hole to find near TDC). Then remove distributor cap and observe where your plug 1 wire is in relation to cap and rotor and other plug wires. (Note; distributor rotates CCW(front view) firing order 1243.) good source for ?N info. https://www.yesterdaystractors.com/

Need to know what Brand, model you are installing. There have been many different actuators.

Here is the manual for the 2000, 3000, 4000 and 5000,https://data2.manualslib.com/pdf5/106/10527/1052659-ford/2000.pdf?6cbe67364f75a5d5bf88cf05a43220e6Here is a video of 1 with the bucket attachment showing the filter location on it,https://youtu.be/GmBbi4CUK7oAnd here is a answer;http://www.fixya.com/support/t26353627-hydraulic_filter_1964_ford_4000_tractorMore info added;The rear differential fluid level check plug is behind your right heel as you are seated on your tractor. Once again, it is a small square-headed pipe plug. You may have to squat down to see this plug. The rear differential reservoir is where your hydraulic pump draws fluid. The filler cap is on top of the rear differential center housing. (some have two filler caps there - both serve the same purpose).The drain plugs are square-head plugs that are recessed. You have to get under the trans and rear end to see them. Also, the drawbar may obscure the rear end drain plug. I have to unbolt my drawbar and slide it back to get to my rear drain plug. Use FORD 134A tractor hydraulic fluid or equivalent Universal Tractor Fluid in both reservoirs. You can get UTF from Tractor Supply Stores, auto parts stores, Wal-Mart, etc. There is a hydraulic filter and suction screen deep down below your hydraulic lift cover (under the seat). If you want to change the filter, and clean the screen, you will have to pull the hydraulic lift cover. And there are other items to remove before you can access the filter. I feel that you will need a shop manual before you tackle this job. If the hydraulic pump will not pump, after you've determined that the hydraulic reservoir is full, you can prime the hydraulic pump by pulling the test plug on the pump and rigging up a clear plastic line back to the fill port. Start the engine and let it pump until all the air bubbles are expelled. After you get your lift working, refill the rear reservoir with the lift arms raised.

It should be taken to machine shop and resurfaced to ensure that it is flat. The smoothness is from wear surface should not be shiny.

The Ford 6640 provides 67 HP at the drawbar and is rated at 76 HP at the PTO. See http://www.tractordata.com/farm-tractors/005/9/5/5951-ford-6640.html for the specifications. I hope this helps. Cindy Wells
