doing some front end maintenance on my M936A1 and noticed my front brake pads were worn more on the leading edge and trailing edge than in the middle. TM states pads are good till the bevel is gone. my bevel is near perfect in the middle of the pad but at least 30-40% gone on the ends. like...

I have a theoretical question on the use of sealants as you addressed above and hoping you might have some advice. why would use of gasket sealants on the radiator end tanks be any different than say on an oil pan? i'm about to open up my radiator to fix some leaks (hoping it just needs...
when i first started trying to figure out why mine might be running "slower" - many (as in this thread) indicted the filter might have hose debris in it. my filter was super clean, so i'd recommend not buying a new filter untill you pull and inspect your old one. as some other have said i...
I can take a pic, give me a day or two, i just guessed (wrong) and installed it in a plug on the top of the control valve body that i thought wasthe suply side (its still on the wrong side, haven't had the time to move it). i believe i just need to move it to another plug on the other end. the...
I agree, i hate my deck not being as clean and slip free as possible, my cable/hook drive motor weeps almost nothing (well for now), but my rotator motor is past weeping and is making a mess. not sure if it needs some true TLC or if a return line will catch the weepage and i'm good to go...
thanks for the input, if the "normal" weeping into the annular area is extremely small for healthy motor, wonder if a simple 1oz collection cup would work instead of plumbing a return from the various motors back to the tank and just be emptied checked every few months? or is "normal" weeping...
For you experienced hydraulic guys, what's the deal with this drain? seems like its leak rate is so low that a drain line will never really "flow" oil back to the tank???? mine drips but so slowly its just a wet spot on the paint (so i would like to stop it, guess it will increase with...
as others have stated - i don't think it will come even close, it will handle a 7.5 circular saw, it will not handle a very small 1 hp hand carry air compressor (no soft start). two 1500w space heaters will indicate exactly 100% load (3 kw) on the meter and it has no problems carrying that load...
might look into adjusting your governor on the fuel pump to govern up a bit. the TM gives the correct RPM, my memory, I think it should be about 1700 rpm, I also remember a warning about not running the crane PTO at less than 1500 rpm, but again check those numbers. when i'm on the crane my...
on the governor (crane PTO engaged) my engine runs at about 1700 rpm can't remember exactly, not sure where the PTO takes off the transfer case (how its geared) - but TM has you put it in 5th which is basically automatic. I've never heard the transmission "shift" when on the governor running...
I have not solved the issue, did drain the tank and change the filter - it was clean. installed a pressure gauge - but put it on the wrong side, so no info on pump pressure. must drain the tank again to move the gauge. that may indicate a weak pump. or if I have a collapsed line between...
the prices vary with how complete a "kit" you order, https://www.lodar.com/, and who your dealer is. I got mine thru bailey hydraulics they were way cheaper then grainger and others. Lodar sells a 24 v unit, i got the two air actuator kit, i think it was in the mid 700$ range (2 yrs ago)...
i bought the remote for the rear winch, but other projects have over taken its install, no not much to report. but it is one way to help solve the free spool issue when only one person is present.
that will be quite a cool mill, i've seen the cooks brand extra wide, it does 52 in i think, but yours will be impressive. but 99% of the trees around here are less than 3 ft, so my saw handles most of the stuff i can get. my other big issue is enough sheds to put the slabs in to dry... LOL
yes its a norwood lumbermate 2000 with a 13 hp engine (so on the smaller end of mills). so far i have no direct plans for the big WO logs... thinking live edge/resin tables as they have some rot in the core that makes it less useful for large wide straight lumber but could add a cool factor for...
excellent, i use my wrecker for similar logs, move 5 ft dia white oak, figured each 8 ft butt log was pushing 2 tons. love your big the saw, i only have a 36 in bar. pic is not the big logs
I make most lifts with out putting the outriggers (jacks) out. the decision is based on weight of load, truck being level, and how far out the load will go. for me most lifts are in the 100's of lbs to 1 ton, so on level ground, not fully extended over the side, the truck hardly knows its...
