    Doosan Light Tower....2 lights work 2 dont

    Hi all. We have this late model Doosan light tower (I think about 2011-2012?) and 2 of the lights don't fire up. Before I start digging in with test lights I wanted to see if anyone could point me in the best direction to start. We put a new capacitor in it to make 60Hz and 120 volts...

    Deere Engine Cross Help

    Replacing engine on a Deere 310J. As long as I swap my accessories/flywheel/adapter I should be OK with a new long block 4045 engine right? Non-turbo to non-turbo. Just want to make sure there isn't a curveball in there.

    Ingersoll Rand/Isuzu Diesel on Runs with Key ON

    I have a head scratcher here. Ingersoll air compressor with Ingersoll Rand brand diesel engine (made by Isuzu not Yanmar). It will start and run as long as you hold the key on start. I tried a new key, relay, and then started checking every wire. Turns out I do not get 14.7 volts from the...

    Wacker RT Remote Syncing Issue

    Folk, we have a Wacker RT trench roller that has always run amazing. It had new "eyes" and such installed before we got it. Recently I've had trouble syncing the remote. When you first fire it up the remote will sync with both eyes no problem and you can use the machine. After 30-40 minutes...

    Low Voltage at Light Tower Outlet

    We have this Ingersoll Rand Lightsource light tower that we use solely as a generator. Uses a Kubota D905 engine and is supposed to be able to put out 6KW. Issue is at the 110V outlet. Things don't run so well plugged into the outlet. For example a grinder spins really slow or a heat gun...

    How is the John Deere 4024 engine? Reliable?

    Sort of a broad question but how is the Deere 4024 engine been for folks? I see them in all sorts of machines but I've never had my hands on one (as far as I remember). Good little engine or stay away?

    What does an old top kick weigh?

    I know this is an impossibly impossible question since I don't even have that many details but...I am looking at an automatic cab and chassis top kick from the 80s. It has an automatic and cat V8 turbo diesel. Its a 33K GVWR truck. I don't need exact just curious if there is a safe range to...

    Deere 4239 LUCAS CAV Pump Plungers Stuck?

    Folks I have worked on a million 4239 deere motors but I've never had one that didn't make pressure at the injectors. Long story short this engine had sat without fuel in it for a while. So I snapped on a new fuel filter, hooked up a test tank and return tank and used the hand primer to fill...

    Got a Wacker RT82 in and need to do an oil change on gear case and exciters along with other maintenance. According to the manual 2 of the drums are removed to replace the gear case oil (with new 10W-30) and 2 of the drums are removed to replace the exciter oil. Anything in particular...

    Deere 4045 Engine - Weird Problem

    I have a mechanically injected Deere 4045 in one of our compressors. This is probably a 2005 or so machine. No computers just a mechanical injection pump. So the engine fires right up and runs clean as can be. Issue is when I load the compressor air end and that puts a load on the engine it...

    Sullivan Air Compressor Won't Idle Down

    We have a Sullivan 210 diesel compressor. Runs and makes air no problem there. Only issue is that it will sit at 2500 RPM all day long. Used to idle down. I took off the air cylinder and it does not leak. So I know that whatever is supposed to send air to the cylinder to send the engine...

    Mustang MTL16/Takeuchi TL130 Weak Tilt Bucket Floats Down

    Was looking to buy an MTL16 Mustang (I believe same as Takeuchi TL130) but I can't even pick the front end of the machine up with the tilt. The boom lifts and lowers, the drive goes forward and backward, but the bucket tilt is super weak. I was thinking the hydraulic pump for the boom...

    Wacker RT820 (new to me) Can't Get Started

    I got a new to me Wacker RT820 walk behind articulating trench roller. The machine is CHERRY and seen really little use but when I put a battery to it I get no crank. It has a wired remote (with a battery on it). When I turn the key on the machine the remote does not light up. Do I need to...

    Deutz 1011 Motor Starts then Off Starts Then Off Then Starts Stays On...

    I am baffled. Please see if any of this makes sense: Have a 1011 Deutz 4 cylinder (non-turbo) in my machine. When I first got it there was a no start situation. At first I removed the fuel shutoff solenoid and that did not fix the no-start so I bolted the solenoid back in. I put in a lift...

    Dynapac Leaking

    Our Dynapac LP852 walk behind started leaking from inside the wheels. Taking off the outer covers shows that the outside of the wheels are dry. The inner side of the wheels is leaking hydraulic fluid. Is this a wheel seal or a large o-ring that needs to be replaced?

    Why does my IR compressor shut off after 15-20 seconds?

    My IR 185 with a deere diesel will start and run for 10-20 seconds. Makes good strong air in no-time during this period. Machine only has 2000 hours on it and has had recent fluid/filters. Seems like RPM's drop ever so slowly and it stops. Doesn't matter if the air is open or closed. I...

    Hydraulic fluid in Wacker RT Wheels?

    Its been wet so I haven't had a chance to look at it - but our diesel Wacker RT trench roller (remote controlled) seems to have a little hydraulic fluid pooling up in the back wheels. Is this a common issue or something I need to really investigate?

    Clark CY40B Manual? Same as CYF40B?

    Ladies and Gents, I am looking for a manual (operators/maintenance/user - or along those lines) for an early 60's Clark CY40-B. In the Clark manual page (https://www.clarkmhc.com/OperatorManual) I can find CYF40 but not plain CY40. Is that approximately the same when it comes to fluids and...
