    Fan was going to high speed still shutting off. Finally got it to a shop was told it was a oil pressure sensor. Got it back run for 10 min. and blew a tire. :mad:

    S150 Overheating?

    It has hydraulic fan ( I figured it was electric the way it kicks in ). I haven't had a chance to run it much but I loaded it on float today and checked the fan and it is running. The fan was running on low speed I didn't run it long enough to see if it would kick in to high speed only 15min ...

    S150 Overheating?

    After 30 mins of light use temperature light comes on and shuts machine off. Gauge is only half way not in the red. Rad is clean and coolant level is good. If i let it sit to cool down it will fire right up and run until it shuts down again. Machine has about 1500 hrs. Any ideas what to look at?

    Boom falling fast question

    My 580C is the same way. Very touchy booming down unless operating another valve at the same time. Only backhoe I have every used and it is fairly new to me but I am used to it now. Every function seems to work smoother and or slower if operating 2 valves at the same time. If you find a solution...

    580c

    I would like to get tach and hour-meter working. The cable pulled right out of the piece in picture just like it was cut off. Do you think a new cable will fix it or is there more too it?

    580c

    I finally got around to changing that hose. Old hose had an adapter to go from orb to npt. The adapter was leaking so I eliminated it with new hose . Found another leak at loader control valve. It drips every 5 seconds whether I am using loader or not with it running. Can this be fixed on the...

    OTT Skid Steer Over Tire Tracks Sand Septic System

    Thanks for the info guys. I think I will do as much as I can with equipment I have then rent a CTL to finish it off if I have to. The ott's may help with driving in sand but probobly not safe to drive over pipe. I wil let you know how the project turns out but it might be 6 months before I get...

    OTT Skid Steer Over Tire Tracks Sand Septic System

    The way I look at it I could buy a set of of ott's and have them for the next job if they work good. I don't know anybody that has actually used them and dont want to buy something I won't be happy with. They are cheaper than buying a CTL and would probably cost me the close to same price as...

    OTT Skid Steer Over Tire Tracks Sand Septic System

    I have to install a raised filter bed septic system for my new home. I have access to a 2wd backhoe, mini ex, and a bobcat S150 skid steer. Would it be worth while to invest in a set of over tire tracks for the skid steer or will I need an actual tracked machine to get the job done. This will be...

    No Power in Boom

    My 580c is the same way the boom struggles to lift with full 24" bucket. I would say it is the weakest circuit on my machine. The boom can hold itself up for awhile once raised. I find using dipper arm to raise bucket is faster. If I have to raise boom with full bucket I do it first when bucket...

    Case 580 CK rear differential way overfull why?

    Lucky you were able to bail off it. My 580c has brakes on one wheel as long as I remember to top up the fluid and pump the brake pedal about 30 times. I am on fairly level ground but you never really appreciate having brakes until you really need them and they are not there. When I polarized the...

    Case 580 CK rear differential way overfull why?

    If the tractor sat for awhile with dead or no battery you should try to polarize the generator. My father in-laws late 60's ford tractor wouldn't charge the battery for years. He didn't use it much and always boosted it with another tractor. I installed a new battery and it wouldn't charge. I...

    580ck extendahoe 1972 hose leak

    I did my 580c hoses myself with the help of a tree and some heavy duty ratchet straps. An extra set of hands will speed up the reassembly. Be careful taking boom apart those parts are very heavy and if not supported properly you could get hurt. Search the forum there are some posts that have...

    207d injector pump removal and installation.

    Tez I am the same way. If I don't know how something works or how to fix it I eventually find out somehow. Sometimes it might end up taking longer or even costing more money if you make a mistake but its a learning experience and worth it in the end. This forum is a great place for info on these...
