Description
When your tachometer needle starts jumping around like it’s trying to escape or quits working altogether, you’re flying blind on engine speed—and that’s no way to run a tractor. A faulty rev counter means you can’t properly set engine RPMs for PTO work or avoid over-revving your engine. This replacement cable connects your engine’s transmission output to your dashboard gauge, giving you the accurate RPM readings you need for everything from running a baler to powering a grain auger.
What You’re Getting
- 1230mm cable length that routes properly from engine to dashboard without binding
- 7/8″ to 5/8″ threaded connections that match your original equipment exactly
- Flexible steel inner cable that transfers rotation smoothly without the jerky readings of worn cables
- Durable outer housing that resists kinking, heat damage, and the bumps of daily farm use
Built for Real Farm Work
This cable fits a wide range of David Brown tractors across multiple series including the 800, 900, 1200, 1400, 90, and 94 series models. These are the workhorses that power everything from hay balers to grain drills, and many implements require specific PTO speeds to work correctly. Run your equipment too slow and you’ll plug things up; too fast and you’re wearing out components prematurely.
Made to Last
This replacement cable uses a precisely wound inner wire that transmits rotation smoothly without the jumping or sticking common in worn cables. The 1230mm length is critical—too short won’t reach, too long creates loops that cause binding. The threaded ends are built to handle the constant vibration and temperature changes that come with tractor work.
Installation Notes
Start by noting the exact routing of your old cable since improper routing causes premature failure, and avoid sharp bends that restrict the inner cable’s rotation. The cable routes through the standard firewall grommet and connects directly to the transmission output and dashboard tachometer, with installation typically completed in under 30 minutes. Make sure both ends are properly seated—partially connected cables fail quickly.
