Somehow I keep finding myself with dead dozers. I am thinking about buying a D600D Terex and a Liebherr 731C. Both nice looking machines with near new undercarriages and the price is basically scrap so I will not get burned too much. Basically, the owner sadly passed and no one around knows anything about the machines.
The Terex moves and starts, the Liebherr does not and the blade does not move either. I would like to spend a few minutes diagnosing the Liebherr because if it is a simple leak I might be able to fix it and drive it on the trailer vs using the Terex to push it on.
1. Where is the hydro oil for this machine to drive it? The tank on the side with the sight glasses is completely empty. There are two dipsticks under the hood - engine oil and something else. They are both ok. How do I add hydro oil to the tank on the side with the sight glasses? All I really saw was a plate on top that had a 6 bolt pattern or something in it.
2. in the event the machine is dead, what is the best way going about getting it to roll freely?
3. Are the blade hydro system and the drive hydro system the same systems? Do they use the same reservoir?
Rumor has it a hose blew or it had a large leak and that was it. The blade is chained up where it is sitting but again, the engine runs it just doesn't do ANYTHING.
Thanks!
