    Cat 335 next gen boom moving out on its own

    Sounds like a coil problem. They have them for each end of each cylinder. Takes ten min to change dealer tech said , but an hour to calibrate it. Our 330 had the similar situation I would stick out curl basket in for the boys to hook pipe on but they would have to wait for it to completely stop...

    Better / Easier ways to clean out metal tracked undercarriages?

    These are dirty track lol. That was the first 5 hr of new hoe. Anyway will use a skid with forks to scrape out and lift tracks up to shovel the rest out. If we have the wrist bucket on can use that to lift track as well to get in there and make life easier.
