    1993 Case 580 SK Extendahoe Hose Replacements

    I have a 94 580SK, so I understand how stubborn some of the fittings can be. They can get corrosion in the threads and sometimes on the fitting’s flare-taper surface itself. Inspect your fitting once it is broken free, as it might need a little polishing/cleaning up before installing a new...

    Transmission Fault light on Case 650k Series 2

    If the controller is not under the cover, look behind the fuse panel as they got positioned in different places over time. Endnode terminating resistor values typically range from 110 to 130 with nominal 120 ohms, so 120 is good. Are you reading 117/120 directly from a particular device...

    Transmission Fault light on Case 650k Series 2

    This is from memory based on title for 650k Series 2, not by researching serial number, so take it for what it may be worth. The drive train controller is under the LH arm rest, there should be plastic cover panel with 4 screws on it. 120 ohms supports the can fault being observed. Normal...

    JD 310SG battery leaking current

    Mg2361 is a very good Deere technician, he has access to look up Deere serial numbers and their factory configurations, so he was able to determine if your machine has an ECU. Most ECUs will have 2-3 slide lock connectors on them. The suggestion in line with what mg2361 stated, is to remove...

    JD 310SG battery leaking current

    Electronic devices (with capacitors and/or semiconductors) will have an initial inrush current when they are energized. That would produce the bright light followed by a dim light as your test light is providing the conductivity to engergize. This is why I previously asked if your machine had a...

    Case 580b gear oil in powershuttle

    Vincent, Welcome to HEF. How did you determine to use TCH oil in your 580B powershuttle transmission? Perhaps I am misunderstanding, but 580B powershuttle tractors are listed to use 17 quarts of gear oil in the transmission, per the service manual that I am looking at. TCH is listed for the...

    JD 310SG battery leaking current

    Let me ask a few questions to perhaps help locate the source of current draw. Does the machine have any aftermarket accessories installed that were possibly spliced in the wiring outboard of the factory fuse panel? For example a radio, roof beacon, fan, power seat, etc? I am not familiar...

    JD 310SG battery leaking current

    I am going suggest going old-school here if you want to see if the battery is self discharging. Use a battery hydrometer to test each cell. A cheap hydrometer from an auto store is only about $6. In that way you can see day-to-day if a battery is self discharging due to internal corrosion or...

    Case 580K Neutral start switch

    Welcome to HEF Bfleming89 Sounds like a bad ground point.(corrosion/rust/mouse) Have you confirmed that the ground side of the neutral start switch (black/yellow) has truly a good ground to provide to the starter circuit when the switch closes? Try adding a test jumper from a good ground...

    Case 580SE having hydraulic fluid changing problems

    By my understanding the serial number points to a series 1, 580L from late 90s. When purchasing manuals make sure your serial number is within range for the manual. Just to confirm, the oil level is full after the change, correct? (about 15 gallons needed) Also, the hydraulic filter...

    Case 580SE having hydraulic fluid changing problems

    FYI the 580L model did not really start until 1995, so either your friend has a 580K from 1990 or a 580L ~1995+ A picture would help all identify. Opinions differ on this forum regarding hydraulic oil. What did your friend use for oil? Typically even the cheapest oil would initially move...

    Advice on Possible Purchase...New Holland 675E

    Congratulations on the safe arrival of your TLB ! In reply to your question on transmission, your taxing my memory but seem to recall they were Dana Powershift transmissions used in that era. There is typically a metal serial number tag on the lower part of the transmission that should help...

    Case 580 super l not shifting

    When you raised your loader did you press the clutch disconnect switch out of habit? I am thinking possibly the switch is intermittent causing your issue, and by pressing it or moving the loader you temporally cleared the issue. Check that clutch disconnect switch and I believe there is one on...

    Advice on Possible Purchase...New Holland 675E

    In alignment with Delmer regarding using full synthetic, I would suggest it would be well worth the time to make a phone call to your New Holland dealer, or better yet visit them in person, and ask their experience on synthetics in that vintage of powershift transmission before you invest your...

    Advice on Possible Purchase...New Holland 675E

    Swetz, As you indicate you are going to change all oils (I certainly agree with that for a new-to-you purchase), I would recommend OEM oil, not aftermarket. Particularly on the powershift transmission, which given your light usage plans, will likely not be changed again until long after your...

    Advice on Possible Purchase...New Holland 675E

    Swetz, If helps make you feel better about powershift transmissions. They have a long track record of being on TLBs. They are actually the high-end transmission option as they provide some nice features. As with adding any gizmo, the more complexity does open the door for more opportunity...

    Advice on Possible Purchase...New Holland 675E

    Looks like a good machine. About the only thing I can see in the pictures is the dipper cylinder hose is either chewed up in the middle, or it has a protective sleeve that is damaged. Either way, simple fix if needed. The 675 hoe is longer/higher than other machines you have been looking at...

    580 Super K Hydraulic question

    Ron, Having just gone though pulling both of my 580 Super K claim cylinders this winter, here is a few points for your consideration. If you going to flush the claim circuit, you will need to open both the left hand and right hand cylinder sides as they are plumbed together. Flushing to just...
