    Takeuchi 260

    I will throw a belt at it and see if that helps at all. heymccall, where did you source your water pump pulley? Both this machine and my SV100 are a chore to adjust belts on, my TB135 with the tilt cab is a cinch to adjust and still remains as the smoothest running of the lot.

    Takeuchi 260

    Hello HEF! I have a 2020 Takeuchi TB260 that has to me ran warm since new, currently at 1280hrs. Why not just take it to the dealer and have it looked at or repaired under warranty you may ask? Well for the most part we have been behind and short on gear for the majority of the time I've had...

    Case 580SN, help with codes?

    My daughter and I just got back to the yard with this machine. I see the wif sensor on the secondary filter housing. I will try replacing the filters before investigating this code farther. Is there a way to clear codes from the dash or is that a dealer only thing? BTW, I have several times not...

    What's your hoe doing?

    Well I plan on going home everyday. This service was 12' deep and the sandy soil started falling in at about the 6' mark. Shoring is cheap insurance as long as it's used properly and everyone gets to go home at the end of the day. Qualified pipelayers are hard to come by now days so I find...

    Flow comes into new auxiliary valve first then to outrigger and onto boom, originally fluid would flow directly into outriggers

    Thumb

    Not sure how to answer your question other than yes, it has built in flow control as well as pressure adjustment. Unlike a power beyond the functions down the line remain active as long as you have flow over the auxiliary implement although at a reduced speed. I looked at a lot of options out...

    This is what I came up with to add auxiliary hydraulics to my 74' Case 580B. This valve is only one direction but they do offer a 2 way valve. Bought this from my local case dealer (they thought me a bit odd) and was supplied by BIC.

    Pin grabber questions

    Good Day All, I have an old excavator that I am trying to finish a wedge style pin grabber for. I first thought of using some acme rod to actuate the wedge using a cordless impact but the other day I had another thought. Maybe I could use my pilot pressure to operate wedge, this circuit...
