I recently bought the machine and it has a few issues.
First the alternator pulley is shot. Eas fix remove it, get it tested and install new pulley. It also took out the belt. Another obvious fix just replace it.
Second it needs batteries. I'm gonna replace them again no issues here.
Once I have that done I can test all the functions and make sure it drives and operates as it should. Not taking any chances running it long without water pump or fan.
Third it has no service/working brakes. I have done nothing to look into this yet.
Forth it has no parking brake. The entire parking brake actuator is missing. This part is no longer available from case or badger. This I would like to find used.
Fifth the crowd cylinder needs rebuilt as it is leaking bad. Might need some crome work and repacked.
Sixth the left rear tire leaks at the oring. Need to remove it and have the local tire shop fix it.
Seventh the slides for the digmor hydraulic extendable dipper wear slides are missing or badly worn. Case doesn't have it in the parts or repair manuals. I also called a local case dealer and they can't find anything on it.
First I need to get the batteries in and belt on so I can run the machine so it can be loaded on a trailer and brought home.
Once it's here both brake issues are first priority. Any help of insight you have on finding parts or working on this machine is greatly appreciated
Thanks Dill
