    ASV SR80 bucket leveling issue

    Hi all, I have an ASV SR80 that is doing something weird. The bucket leveler will not stop. Pulled the switch, pulled the fuse, pulled both at the same time and it still "levels". Any thoughts on what to check next? Thanks !

    2006 ASV SR80 - overflow for hydraulics & mechanic needed..

    Before I get absolutely overjoyed at your answer, you are positive, absolutely positive? I only ask because another guy told me it would only overflow at the top where it was poured ?? But I really really like your answer better.

    2006 ASV SR80 - overflow for hydraulics & mechanic needed..

    somewhere or someone told me that if I overfilled the hydraulic oil it would come out some overflow somewhere. I overfilled it today - when I say overfilled I just mean it is full to the top but not flowing out that top, but it is likely overfull via the site glass (which I can't see through -...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Yes, two and neutral ... I wonder if I could put my auger on the machine and try the continuous flow switch? It worked with the grapple but I couldn't leave it on long (because it's a grapple and I didn't want to blow up anything). Any thoughts?

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Hey, sorry for the delay in qetting back to you - the mower seems to work with the thumb roller so I don't see how it can be the hoses??? I'm trying to find someone to look at my switch (although it worked with another piece of equipment). Ugh....

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    yes furu - thanks. I didn't know how else to test the flow. But I appreciate the info that I shouldn't use that continuous flow on the grapples - never have used that with the grapple before.

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    yes mower seemed to do fine with the rpm's ramped up - I didn't enjoy trying to learn how to control my travel speed with the rpms ramped up but well, guess that's just something new to learn. I really didn't let the continuous flow go too long on the other attachment - it's a grapple and once...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    I dont' think there's any other electrical hookup on the mower and yes, I will check the switch with multi-meter - that's a good idea. I just can't think of anything else that could be an issue since it works with the thumb roller. Do you know how tired my thumb got ??? because geez I had to...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    oh and furu, as mentioned in prior post the rotary mowers comes with a range for high flow or low flow. I don't have much more info on the mower than what shows under their spec page on the website. Nice people to talk to; we'll see how they act when I call with an issue :-) oh & on this...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Thanks for all the posts. Here's where I'm at ... the mower is supposed to be correct flow rate for my machine on the low flow (I didn't want high flow). I definitely have the connections on the low flow connections. And since there's no case drain definitely wouldn't want to hook up to...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    thanks for looking at the manual.... I couldn't see anything about speed control but perhaps I can learn to move the control easier - with the rpms up I feel like I'm jerking around but again, self taught so who knows what I'm doing wrong. I have a roller thumb control for my hydraulics -...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Ok, let me test that - mine is a switch that just pushes down (upper or lower depending on which way you want the flow to go) and has a slide you have to push before you are able to push down the button but perhaps I haven't held it down long enough. Something to try !

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Thanks for the answer. My machine is a 2006 and I don't see anything in the user manual that allows me to adjust the speed when I'm at full throttle so more research and/or practice is in the cards for me. I do have a turtle and rabbit speed control but max even on the turtle seems faster and...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    full throttle? wow, I didn't realize. And yes, the machine itself seems to run great but I don't think I've ever even had it at full throttle. And won't I be just moving fast when I travel ? I really think I need lessons :-) I have had the machine a couple of years but I use it for...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Hi -- ASVSR80 track machine - just got a new bushhog mower - low flow MD3 from Skidpro. I do have it hooked up on the correct connectors on my machine. It seems that unless I really give it the fuel (rpm) the mower doesn't turn very fast and when using the mower and moving the machine the...

    Equipment purchase advice for a land clearing homeowner.

    Not sure this is the answer you are looking for but as I'm a non-professional and land owner with a ctl I have to say.... for the cost of fuel, repairs etc if it were my choice again I would have a timber company come take the trees I wanted cut, have a mulching company take care of any other...
