    Kato HD550SEV Final Drive

    Yes I did talk to them and they thought they may have something and would get back to me. They haven't so I assume they had no solution. I will call and see them when I am in Mooloolaba on holidays during July/August. Meanwhile the owner has swapped a good pump from the machine with a faulty hub...

    Kato HD550SEV Final Drive

    Looking for information on an old JD 2010 gas driven dozer

    I have owned several diesel JD2010 dozers over the years. They had a hydraulic angle and tilt blade. One had a backhoe attached as well. They had a hydraulic direction reverser with powershift. Great little machine. No petrol models came to Australia. There wa another blade that was available...

    john deere 3010/1961

    I am wondering if you have solved this problem. It can be caused by the transmission pump not supplying sufficient oil to allow the main pump to put out full output. Foot on clutch certainly can cause problems. By putting the return line from the loader into filter housing will supply oil to...
