    I'm back in the land of internet. Thx for hanging around !!, we roaded the hoe about 4 miles yesterday and used maybe 75 gallons of diesel !, now the track drives are uneven so i'm tempted to check the main pump press output. the only way to get it to walk is to go to rabbit mode and...

    deere 690el

    Thanks mg2361 for fixing this post. I'm still having difficulty with navigation! I felt troubleshooting electrical would be my best first act as the machine just looks like that will be a issue somewhere. The machine has little power to the tracks, it will turn a track if it's off the...

    Still learning my way around this forum but I posted into another thread today about a 690 deere and don't want to repeat all that here and confuse things but perhaps with this note a 690 familiar person will see it and recognize my question about the controller first check not checking and...

    Air Vaccuum?....

    or you can make one with random pipe/tubing fittings and some gas or air line. its' just a venturi and in theory works better than a vacume machine, just takes more energy. some pumps on the ships i worked on used them, like in the chain locker and such as they woulnd't plug up, if you have a...
