    CTL hydraulic cylinder sound

    Since there is not a hydraulic sub-forum will just post here, My CTL (ASV/Terex PT-110) has developed a loud ticking sound after shutdown that seems to originate in or near the left curl cylinder. There is also a very slight reverberation in the arm frame that goes with the sound. I describe...

    Short term use of mulcher

    Asidor I am not that familiar with the European market place but I know that Prinoth is somewhat common there and there are some Fecon products in some locales. Sorry I can't help more on the European marketplace.

    Best way to remove old pads from chains

    My mulching head has thirty 24 mm bolts (roughly 15/16 in) that are wet (lubricated) torqued to 590 ft lbs. ( yes, I have a very large torque wrench.) When the bolts have to be removed they are a real bear. I used to use a cheater bar with a five foot section of pipe to loosen them but this...

    Short term use of mulcher

    What flow does the machine have that is auxiliary flow? Does it use the same primary flow for the aux as it is used to control the arms and table because if it does it will stall the head everytime you move the arm or rotate the table.

    Best way to remove old pads from chains

    1500 ft lbs or torque is what my Milwaukee does so far nothing has not loosened under its "delicate" touch

    ASV RT120 vs Takeuchi TL12R2

    I would say no but I don't have all the information as to exactly what you want to do. What kind of mulching with what head etc, I have the PT-110 and have been very happy with it with a Fecon BH-74HDT rotor. I know that some of the ASV 100 models had some problems but I have been very...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    If your auger is either a grain auger or a post hole auger that would be a very good piece of equipment to try it on. That has a motor that is designed for continuous or at least semi-continuous flow unlike the hydraulic cylinders on the grapple. You should have no issue at all on running it...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    I am confused. Why did you hook a grapple up to the continuous flow? That is one implement that the thumb switch is great on. I would actually be concerned to hook the grapple up to continuous as it would try to push fluid even with the actuators at max retract or max extend and would...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    I can only imagine! You are one dedicated person. But the mower ran fine with the higher power setting, yes? Hopefully you don't get the thumb equivalent of trigger finger. To me the issue is confused by the other attachment working fine on low flow with the switch. What is that other...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Have you taken the low flow switch and checked it for proper function with a multi-meter? It might as you say just have an intermittent problem since it works with another implement. There is not an electrical connection to the rotary mower is there that you don't have with the other implement?

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    I don't know on the rotatory cutters as I don't have one but the drum type I have from Fecon is set up with the internal components matched to the flow that you order it for. They specifically want to know what machine you are going to run it on and what flow and pressure. I would suspect that...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Interesting, I had not heard of that technique before. I always start the high flow then rev up but will admit that while I normally power down before I stop high flow (just seems logical) I have on occasion shut down flow before reducing rpm when there has been a mini-emergency shutdown (I...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Well I just did a quick read through of the 80 manual. Saw nothing other than the fast/slow mode nothing that allows you to adjust it incrementally as I can do on my unit. The hydraulic flow switches look like they have a safety slide and then are just rocker switches, so holding them...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    As a thought on your continuous flow switch. Mine I have to hold it down for 3-5 seconds so that it goes through a safety logic check before flow starts. That is to prevent an accidental actuation of hydraulic flow and hurting someone by accidental switch activation. It takes a determined and...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    Here is a link to get an SR70/80 manual if you don't have one. https://www.manualslib.com/download/859562/Asv-Sr-70.html A quick perusal looks like there is a high flow option so you could have high flow hydraulics and if so that is very nice. I presume you bought this unit used and are not...

    Help with ASVSR80 bogs down - hydraulic issue?

    When you ask if it would effect the continuous flow switch I am not certain what you are asking. If you are asking if it effects how the switch is actuated then the answer would be no as it is electrically actuated (at least on my machine) however if you are asking if it would effect the...
