    Case 580SN Fuel Pump Relay Kill Switch

    I assume yours doesn't have a turbo? If it does, there is a kill switch built into the dash to prime the turbo.

    Case boom gland seal help

    Thank you. I'm still slowly getting caught up on the maintenance of this tractor since buying it. There was a little bit of water in the oil that came out of the cylinder. I should replace the fluid and filter at some point soon. I am wondering, if I put new seals on the swing arm cylinders...

    Case boom gland seal help

    Thanks melben. I didn't use either seal. I just packed that extra space behind that green dust cup with grease. I have it back together now but not yet on the tractor. I'll post back here if I have any leaks or issues. Still wondering if I should bleed air out of the cylinder after it's...

    Case boom gland seal help

    I've been messing around with it. I think I'm deciding to not use either that tan wiper I have pictured or the clear spacer (not pictured) because they both make the green metal Useal dust cover stick out and not flush with the gland surface. I don't want that dust cover popping off which it...

    Case boom gland seal help

    After a little more research it looks like the one I have pictured is unused but the other seal in my kit which is clear and almost the same size is the spacer that is supposed to go in that gap. I'm not sure I want to put it in though because there wasn't one when I took the old seal out and it...

    Case boom gland seal help

    I am replacing the seals on my 580D boom cylinders. I am stuck! I have two extra seals in the kit. When I pulled the old seals off there was just the dust wiper seal on the outside edge with a gap under it. The new seal (green) has a gap under it and I am wondering if one of the extra seals...

    Thanks, would it affect oil and water temperature gauges as well or do they work even with the key off?

    580D volts gauge

    When I went to start up my 580D this week when I turned the key on the volts gauge didn't move like it usually does. I left the key on for about 10 seconds, then started the tractort. Then after another 5 to 10 seconds the volts gauge started working as normal. I was in the middle of another...

    Fan belt replacement case 580 D

    Thanks for the confirm Melben. Despite the comments, I'm probably going to try a link belt. This is mostly because there is a backup belt. If I had a shop and place to work on it I would put real belts on but seeing as my world is in limbo right now and I'm working out in the field it makes...

    Fan belt replacement case 580 D

    Thanks Joe--H, Have you had any problems with it stretching or not lasting that long? I was reading someone else that posted here by TheOldMan. https://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/threads/580sl-fan-belt-replacement.28383/ using one of those and said he had to keep tightening it constantly...

    Fan belt replacement case 580 D

    I'm also looking to replace the drive belts on my Case 580D. The service manual doesn't have anything for it. This thread is helpful and confirms what I was thinking. I hope the coupler slides on the splines once it's unbolted. If not I will try to slide the pump back without disconnecting the...
