    1999 John Deere 310E loader-backhoe

    I was being a dufus. I figured out it was the Hyd Fluid Filter Restriction lamp, doing a web search. Many do this when cold, and the manual says normal. Thanks!

    John Deere Loader-backhoe Oil Pressure Lamp activity

    Thanks. I'm dumb and lazy this morning! I didn't look long enough before posting forum question. It's the Hyd Oil Pressure lamp, not the engine oil lamp. I found an operators manual online for a G model. It says normal to come on when cold and should go off when fluid warms up. Nice...

    John Deere Loader-backhoe Oil Pressure Lamp activity

    My first loader/backhoe ever, JD 310E. Previously had a New Holland CTL for about a year...that was my first construction machine. Just accepted backhoe from dealer two days ago. Didn't do this when I inspected it at dealer location, but dealer had warmed it up when I specifically asked them...

    1999 John Deere 310E loader-backhoe

    Thank you much. I'll do all of your suggestions. Want to be sure brakes are 100%. This morning I noticed a new problem upon startup. I'll make a new post for this question too. I let the JD 310E I bought sit for 36 hours after I accepted delivery and started it this morning. Started...

    1999 John Deere 310E loader-backhoe

    I bought this machine today with just under 4,500 hours on it. From a JD dealer in western CO. It was owned by a private user it seems. It's my first backhoe I've owned and ever operated. It was a good deal compared to others I shopped. $24,200 with forks, 24" and 12" hoe buckets. A trade...

    LT185.B New Holland, safety and hydraulic wiring needs refills

    (title was supposed to say "wiring needs rebuild") This is a 2006 year model. Bought it used with 1,600 hours on it last year. I was out in the field one day with a full bucket and the boom wouldn't go up. The tilt function still worked though. I thought it was a blown small fuse near the...

    NH tracked skid steer strange safety & hyd solenoid malfunctions, LT185B

    2006 year, 1600 hours, LT185.B New Holland. I'm second owner. I was working on a pile of dirt and without warning or sign the boom lift stopped working and I was stuck with a load of dirt in it. All else works fine. I removed the access panel and lifted the seat up. Aux right hand control...

    NH LT185.B skid steer track loader, boom vertical hydraulics stopped working

    New Holland LT185B, 2006 yr, 1600 hrs, picked up a load of top soil and I drove about 300 yards to dump it on my ditch bank and the bucket would not go up. No noise, no anything. Tilt and everything else is normal. I had only been operating it for about an hour, and lightly. The foot pedals...

    Tips for getting track back onto front idler?

    Yes we eventually got it on. The main issue we solved was that the dang idler bracket/yoke was in upside down, and made the idler stick out, even when the tensioner was fully released, by about 1" too much. Both my partner and I checked the bracket by comparison when putting in but it tricked...

    Looking to get into a skid

    That's allsum you're in Aguilar CO! We looked at a ranch there but ended up a few miles from Rifle, CO after that deal fell through. If you have irrigation or any wet dirt conditions a tracked machine is likely for you.

    Looking to get into a skid

    I've only owned one but have operated 3 different types. Personally I'd never buy a wheeled skid. The bigger wheeled machines I've operated were weaker and unstable than their tracked equivalents. I'd look for a compact track loader. It has best punch and stability for buck. I bought...

    New Holland LT185.B hydraulics safety mechanisms

    And the list of stuff to fix just continues to grow! Lol If the boom is up and/or bucket is tilted up and the foot control pedals are depressed they still operate the boom/bucket and will let them fall down when machine is turned OFF. It's not supposed to do this right? Shouldn't the...
