    First 10 hours in a CASE DL550 Minotour

    How is it doing in regards to the washboarding that YouTube says it does? Is it possible to grade and cut freehand without grade control? That’s my biggest concern for one of those in my operation

    2022 Case TV370B top tilt cylinder pin grease

    We have had 3 Case machines with that setup and anytime those pins start to squeak, a quick shot of WD40 takes care of it. I know it sounds crazy but it works. And we don’t have to do it very often.

    D5G will not move

    A user named CM1995 will chip in as I know he’s had similar issues with the same machine. Those Gs are supposedly super picky on voltage. Potentially an alternator or battery problem.

    3/4 drive impact deep socket set

    Cornwell makes a set from 1 9/16” to 2” in their BluePower line which is imported but still lifetime warranty. $360 for the set.

    New Dozer Case 650M

    That machine is hydrostatic so no need to throttle down before direction change. Also, I’m not sure how many speed settings the 650M has, but the larger Ms have 15 and I recall running forward pushing in 10 or 11. The M series will actually slow down with a serious load on the blade to prevent...

    Takeuchi tl10v2

    I have 0 first hand experience but a lot of people say the new TL10s are sluggish because they lowered them to 74 HP to get under the DEF requirements.

    CASE DL550B vs TV620B

    My dealer has 2 620s coming in I believe this month and 2 first quarter 2022. Salesman told me $82,000 for a loaded one. I thought that was pretty fair to be honest. He just quoted me $71k for a new 450B so really not that much more expensive. Edit: Forgot to mention but all 4 already have...

    CASE SR210B Intermittent Start issue

    I’ve talked to a service tech at a dealer and he’s experienced the same thing and it traces back to loose battery cables. I would start there.

    Case CX490D Checking Codes??

    I generally just do an internet search to find out what a code means. I know there’s some members here that can tell you for sure and you can buy almost any Case service manual from repairmanual.com for ~$30

    Case CX490D Checking Codes??

    With the key on, press and hold the 2 speed button and the auxiliary hydraulic setup button at the same time for 2-3 seconds. That will enter you into the diagnostic mode. Select check, and then going in to fault codes. It will list the codes and the hour they occurred at. It does not however...

    Running a 90" dirt bucket

    We run a Bradco heavy duty high capacity which is a long lip and high back and if I put air in the seat I can see the edge. The Virnig bucket is supposedly 1” shorter in height and 2” deeper so it should have better visibility. I’m looking for a 90” to help keep material out of the tracks when...

    Running a 90" dirt bucket

    I’ve been eyeing the Virnig V60 high capacity dirt bucket, seems about the same as the utility bucket just a little more stout and it has the grading bend at the heel. My dealer wants $2700 though
