    Thoughts on adding lift pump to case 480c?

    Firstly the reason I'm thinking about adding one is because I need to put a temporary tank on this. Just to be clear I don't have a fueling issue, I have a rusty tank issue. The temporary tank has a draw straw so there won't be any gravity feeding. It will also be on the fender so not very...

    Case 480c swing is slow.

    Will do. I've had it for many years. The swing worked fine last time I used it but I had been sitting for a few years. Good advice cleaning and lubing everything. What would cause the bucket to curl when the boom is bottomed out?

    Case 480c swing is slow.

    Got this running after a few years sitting and the swing pedal were kind of stuck. I put some weight on one and heard a really loud pop. Now they are working but really slow. It almost seemed like they were locked or something. Anyone ever seen this? Everything else is moving good, although I...

    Manually lift Case 480c loader?

    Is that bowl on the bottom a strainer and just threaded on to the tank somehow. I’m having a problem wrapping my head around that. I don’t understand why there is a drain and then a strainer beside it. It doesn’t really look like it’s got a line running to it. Just a sediment bowl?

    Manually lift Case 480c loader?

    Yeh I think there might be. I opened those petcocks yesterday and nothing came out of them. I put new filters on and can’t get fuel to the one that sits upside down. I think I might make a cap with a schrader valve on it and put about 5 psi air to the tank and see if it will flow.

    Manually lift Case 480c loader?

    Thanks. I’ll lift it with a truck crane and block it up with a post. Probably leave it hooked to to the crane. Hopefully it just needs the injectors bled. It’s been about a year since I last started this. I’ve let it sit longer before with no issues so it’s odd it won’t start. I don’t see any...

    Manually lift Case 480c loader?

    First time in about 8 years it won’t start. I need to lift the loader bucket so I can have better access to the engine. My question is…do I need to bypass the hydraulics to lift it? I’m not sure if there is such a thing. I just didn’t want to lift it and find out I damaged something. Thanks...

    Stahl Service crane manual needed

    I'm not sure if I should post here but I'll start with this one. I picked up a Stahl 6000 LRX service crane the other day and need a service manual. I'm having trouble getting one from the local dealer or he is having trouble I should say. If anyone has one or could point me in the right...

    Need advise

    I just sold a good ar60 for $200. I'd look for a used one. Get your hands on it and make sure there's no fore, aft, vertical or horizontal shaft play.

    Newbie with some probable issues

    It could be a bad turbo seal passing oil into the intake. That will smoke pretty bad.

    Newbee here needing advice on buying used backhoe

    Hi guys I'm about to buy my first backhoe in the morning. I just found it today and need to jump on it before it gets snatched away. Im curious about how to go about the transaction. Do backhoes have titles? The seller is going to give me a bill of sale. Should I check his ID to verify...
