    930G Forward/Reverse switching

    Is there any adjustment that can be made to smooth out the fwd./rvse. transition? I've bought a 930G and it's a little jerky when making the switch.

    924G vs. WA200PT-5

    Well, I'm back after several years absence to report that my loader is still doing a fine job. One of the best investments I've ever made. I have really enjoyed it. Can't believe it's been 4 years since my last post. Wow!

    924G vs. WA200PT-5

    THought I'd come back to report on my machine after a year of use. I've now loaded out about 15,000 tons of peanuts and the machine is doing better than I would have thought. I had a custom roll-out bucket installed(about 8 cu. yd.), and it allows me to load 25 tons in about 12 minutes via a 36"...

    924G vs. WA200PT-5

    I've had the 924G for about 3 weeks now. So far I really like it. The FNR and kick-down make the machine super easy to operate. It took a good 2 days to get accustomed to it, but it really does a lot of work compared to what the TCM does in the same amount of time. Noticable increase in fuel...

    924G vs. WA200PT-5

    Very much looking forward to the FNR and kick-down, although the machine will likely push into the pile of peanuts easily in 2nd gear. One of the newer machines I looked at had the 3rd valve control a roller on the joy stick. Now that was nice!!

    924G vs. WA200PT-5

    Thanks for all the replies. I certainly have no intention of cramming the loader into the opposite direction at full throttle. It would be a case of say, backing up, slowing down, and then changing direction. Would like to be able to save that amount of wear on the brakes. up to this point...

    924G vs. WA200PT-5

    Thanks Sultan. Another question about operation of these, or any wheel loaders....we operate mainly on flat concrete surface loading very light material(peanuts) only about 450 lbs./cubic yd. Are wheel loaders in this circumstance made to change directions without using much, if any brakes?

    924G vs. WA200PT-5

    Any input on these machines? I'm going to get one or the other. I need aux. hydraulics, and both usually are factory equipped. I think the Komatsu has a hydrostatic transmission. Would love to know how the hydrostat has performed since it hit the market. Cat has a faster cycle time and more...
