Topic

The dealer selling you the parts should be happy to share the data from their repair manuals with you, if not contact the manufacturer themselves, most are very accommodating.

Best of luck.

[QUOTE=kvinodkumar;200693] So the warehouses and factories with fossil fueled forklifts must be conforming to 20 to 30 LCH to be safe? [/QUOTE]

No, no where near those levels, OSHA guidelines call for 5,000 CFM for each propane fueled forklift.

That is a little under a 70 foot cube every hour.

Absolutely true!!

I still have, and use regularly, a 1953 Ford Jubilee, a 1965 Ford 5000 and a 1970 Ford 3000. All were bought brand new by my father & grandfather.

Ironically, the Jubilee is now worth about 4 times what it was brand new, the 5000 about double and the 300 about the same as new. Talk about value!

Best of luck.

Sounds like a reasonable use for waste oil, we use a shop heater that burns used oil.

I guess Yoopers use more chainsaw bar oil than the rest of use do. LOL

It depends on what you need / want to do on that 10 acres.

Cut grass? Clear snow? Earth moving or landscaping?

A little more info would help with advice.

Take your injectors and glow plugs to any decent injector shop, it may be that you don’t need replacement injectors, just an overhaul. If you have no luck out there, or you’re a long way away, get back to me and I can help you out. The glow plugs can usually be matched up to something else.

Best of luck.

A jerky loader function is normally due to air in the loader cylinders,

When lowering the loader with weight on it and or at slow engine RPM's the loader going down can faster than the fluid can be replaced in the 'lift' side of the cylinder, when that happens it's easier for the cylinder to cavitate (inhale air instead of the thicker oil) up into the cylinder.

It's easy to diagnose & solve though, SLOWLY (in both directions) cycle the loader up & down full extension to full retraction several times with the RPM's up at a fast idle speed. If that cures the problem you either need to add a throttle line valve (basically a choke) on the FEL or just be more cautious about lowering heavy loads.

Best of luck.

I don't know a lot about those units in particular but from the description you are giving it certainly sounds like your rectifier is shot.

For something as simple as a rectifier you may just be able to get by with a generic model.

It can be a bit of a PITA sometimes but I've found a small pail can be the best tool for your handheld gas powered tools that are not regularly used.

When you're finished, take the cap off and drain out the remaining fuel into the pail and then back into the jerry can. Once drained restart the tool and run t until it starts to stall out then apply full choke.

An empty carb and fuel system can't plug up in storage.

Best of luck.

We have several of them, you need to consider two things before pulling the trigger.

First, they're mechanic roll-over, the operator has to get on & off each time a change is needed. With a 'conventional' box blade with hydraulic scarifiers it's just a flip of the wrist to change positions. In our case it's no big deal because when we need scrarifiers down it's for an extended period of time. In that case the teeth penetrate much deeper because there's nothing limiting the depth of penetration. This is rarely an issue in anything but purely commercial use.

Secondly. they are considerably more money than a typical box blade is.

There is a tiny little other thing you need to bear in mind though, a roll-over blade has a big nasty set of rippers stuck out the back, if you back into something it will not be pretty. A conventional box blade has a flat back.

Best of luck.

Is it a 3pth mounted backhoe? That sounds like seals have failed and the jerking you’re feeling is the hitch lowering as fluid goes past the failed seal until it hits the point where the position control valve kicks it back up again.

It’s a pretty common failure.

One of the tricks I use often is one I garnered from my aviation background. Stripes painted on the ground. Keep your wheels right on the lines and your always in the same place every time. That's how pilots keep the wing tips on the ends of the wings and not torn off. LOL

I have a series of single lines painted on the concrete pad where I store my implements. To hitch up or unhitch all I have to do is line myself up with (in my case) my right-hand wheels exactly on the paint line. Then the only variable is the fore / aft position. Doing it this way you are automatically both in the right position relative to the hitch and perfectly perpendicular to the implement so both lift arms line up the first time, everytime.

Best of luck.

First off, welcome!!

The speed of the loader is not determined by pressure so much as flow. Often people put flow restrictors (throttle valves) in the lines to keep the speed down for safety reasons.

The stalling sounds like you've got something binding up in there. A little more detail would help though.

Best of luck.

I'm at the other end of the spectrum, we buy oils in large enough quantities that it's delivered by bulk tank truck and pumped into our shop tank. Both motor oil and several grades of hydraulic fluids, including generic Super UDT. The same is true of filters, when our order comes in it is on a pallet, sometimes more than one pallet.

Synthetic is not something we're interested in, or spending the extra money on.

An oil and hyd. fluid change isn't cheap, when you're doing dozens of machines, often more than once a month each, it really adds up fast.

Best of luck.
