    Takeuchi tb025 tracks slow on one side

    I’m going to jack it back up and pull the cover off tomorrow and check it out. My left track works great the bucket is strong and blade feels strong. But the rt track is real slow and I can’t do any two functions at one time. Like if I’m swinging the mechine I can’t bring the arm in or out. If...

    Takeuchi tb025 tracks slow on one side

    I plan on keeping the mechine so I’m not afraid to put a little work into it and I’d feel better with them replaced if I have an excuse to. I’d like to change out anything it even might need while I have it down. When I put it to work I’d rather have as little trouble as possible. The test kit...

    jlg 40f bertea valve issues

    can anyone explain to me how this valve works? I have one that is stuck. I’ve taking it apart to clean but still isn’t going back to neutral position. I feel like I’d have a better chance of fixing it if I understood how the valve works.

    Takeuchi tb025 tracks slow on one side

    I took the hoses off today a blew them out. The final drive place told me to make sure it’s not a clogged line. They all seemed free. I’m going to order a pressure testing kit tonight. Where would I start testing? Where the drive connects at the track? Or at the valve body?

    Takeuchi tb025 tracks slow on one side

    Bought the machine not knowing it had a issue, on the fist job the Lt track was so slow I couldn’t use the machine. Everything I read pointed towards a bad final drive. I opened mine up and all the gears looked great so I figured it was the hydraulic part of the drive. Ordered a new one from...

    The JLG 40F Boom Lift Dilemma

    new owner of a 40f and don't know much about them. i'd also really appreciate the wiring diagrams if you don't mind sharing. I bought mine needing a head gasket which turned into needing a motor. I put a 30hp diesel in it. got it running but as soon as I start it the boom starts to go up. and...
