    Time for a new CTL- Takeuchi, Cat or something else?

    To me, the specs line up the closest on the tl6 to the tl130. Looks like the lift capacity and horsepower is the same. I need to make sure I don't loose any reach or dumping height. I don't want a cab machine so window option doesn't matter to me. Got a quote from Bobcat and it's the most...

    Place to purchase weld on bucket ears and bucket pins?

    Hydraulic issue with Kobelco SK 135 sr

    So I have a kobelco excavator that I've owned for almost 10 years. Recently, the machine started to develop a hesitation or jitter in two functions, the stick out and the boom up. It does it in both cat and john deere pattern at the same place so I don't believe it's in the pilot system. I...

    Hitachi EX100-3 Overheating

    Check to make sure the muffler is not plugged up. This has caused an excavator to run hot for me in the past. They plug up with soot over time.
