    Need help with D6R service codes

    Sell the machine and buy a different brand. You will pay more in service and time chasing service than the machine is worth. Cat is a caddilac on the job site!

    Thoughts or things to look for on a komatsu pc200-6 excavator

    Yes on the pumps. Our sister company sells and manufactures branded HWM Excavator hydraulic pumps for a dealer network. The Orange pump is probably a KYB or Kayaba pump. Horrible design and troublesome. The gray pump is a rexroth/Uchida unless it was upfit to the Kawsaki which we do on all the...

    Thoughts or things to look for on a komatsu pc200-6 excavator

    Agreed: This is not a machine i would purchase. We supply parts and they are notorious for pump problems. The hours could not be correct unless it was previously owned by a farmer and not likely a Komatsu. Cat tries to tie you to their over complicated Cat service and Case excavators are made by...

    SK160LC Kobelco aux. oil flow rate

    It should be about a 100 gpm however their must be a third bank installed which i assume their is? The pump runs in tandem and the flow is split and runs married together. I have seen a saw installed on the end for aux and you can run a bypass to the system and supply a portion of the pump...

    Kobelco SK-295

    Gray market machine- not intended for US sales so parts and support may be hard to come by. We handle most of the components and Kobelco has come back to the US as of this year. Hopefully it will be for good. They make a great excavator and are great competition for Hitachi.

    JCB JS160 Excavator(pic) New Owner!!!! Good and Bad

    We were previously a JCB dealer and have been a Deere dealer since 1955. Only problem with JCB was parts supply time frame. They are great machines and manufactured well. We actually started to outsource original parts and components that manufacture for JCB as another business. If we can...

    200-2 more help needed.

    Yes, we rebuild these all of the time. It could be a number of things but seals are always a good start. However, the milky substance is referring to your oil mixing with water. I would suggest that there is water in your hydraulic system somehow. And your problem may be further than your...

    Problem with horn (Komatsu)

    Work from the powered fuse and follow the wires. It's a pain staking process but it's what we do at the dealership. Nobody likes an electrical nightmare- I feel your pain. Another point is that it's probably as simple as your positive being grounded somewhere -so look for breaks or...

    Does this pin need to be replaced?

    Everything should be fine as long as it's not sloppy like you say. Use a marine grade grease to hold up against the elements and make sure your remote lubrication lines are good if there are any. Bushings are meant to take wear. Seems like the pin may be cheaply manufactured.

    Excavator parts. Thoughts on this Cheap alternative?

    No, but take a look at the homepage pictures... Everything on the website super imposed. I would try looking for what I am needing for repair or maintenance work on google and find an American company. At least you could go back to them and hold them accountable.

    Hydrofracking?

    Scientists and leaked documents have shown that, since the 1980s, EPA investigations into the oil and gas industry's environmental impact—including the ongoing one into fracking's potential impact on drinking water—and associated reports had been narrowed in scope and/or had negative findings...
