    Hitachi DR EX scantool

    So is it only the dipper arm that is slow, walks straight, swings ok, when the arm slows down is it at the end of the stroke or soon as you put some resistance against the arm, did the shop put a pressure gauge on the pump and check pressure during this operation, what was the maximum relief...

    Hitachi DR EX scantool

    Just one thing if you don't already know, the only advantage with the the DR EX/ZX is the error codes display and pressure/ flow info, gives you quick setup without having to get dirty hooking up gauges, but in some cases it will also give you false alerts or errors. What machine have you got...

    Bucket Cylinder Problem(Deere)

    Sounds like the suction valve in your control valve is posssbly not seating or is faulty. When the hydraulic cylinder is not being used the oil in the circuit is locked by the spool valve as the oil is trapped in the circuit, suction valves basically allow for a quicker fill time to the cylinder...

    On the serial plate there will be the serial number and possibly an arrangement number which is like a build number of your machine which shows what was as shipped when your machine left the factory, let me know and I will look into it for you.

    hyundai wiring problem

    I am not sure on this model but some of the early machines came out with a manual override spool system on the opposite side from the solenoids, this allow you to move the machine in the case of a electrical system failure. Just be careful doing a hotwire on the trans solenoids as these usually...

    Ex60 low power Center joint or trackmotors?

    You may just want to recheck your leakage again under load as Bigstevex4 has suggested with that amount of variation from the left to the right I would take a closer look at the motors first, easy way to do this is insert a solid bar into the sprocket segment as you slowly rotate and lock it...

    How much leakage before you rebuild a hyd cylinder?

    Normally its up to you and how much your prepared to pay for oil, but rule of thumb is oil leaking out of the head is bleeding pass the head seals, as long as the wiper seal is still intact then your ok and do it when it gets annoying, but if the wiper seal is damaged or gone all together then...
