    Screen deck plugging at top end

    Hi there, I built a 4 x 12 double deck screen deck with a top mounted rotating counter weight that I use for placer mining. The way it is currently setup I end up plugging on the top end after a couple hrs running but the bottom 3 feet seems to have enough bounce to not plug. Any ideas on how to...

    a25c transmission problems

    Hate to say it but you may be going down the same path I did. I had similar issues and replaced sensors etc but in the end I had to replace the transmission....

    Volvo a25c won’t move

    If you have a meter, check all the fuses in the main fuse block in the cab on rh side under the shift lever.

    Why are there no teeth of front bucket on most backhoes?

    I put bolt on teeth on my general purpose bucket and ended up doing way more damage to the bucket than it was worth. I took them off and put the straight cutting edge back on.

    PC220-07

    Found the problem. There is a ground block under the cab that is accessed via removing a skid plate. Very corroded and broken wiring, surprised the machine ran at all...

    PC220-07

    Also just found out if you turn off auto decel mode the manula control will give full rpms and the boom stock will function properly. Still no swing function - does not feel like it is on the brake but it isn't really stalling the machine out either. For codes I have 223 DXEOKA LS EPC SOL DISC...

    PC220-07

    Have a PC220-7 that was running fine when I parked it a month ago. Today it fired up fine but when I idled it up with the manual throttle it went up like it normally does and then goes higher once you use one of the functions. Except for now it won't idle up on the boom/stick or bucket and it...

    If you are curious how it is done by a guy and not a shop, this is a video that shows how.

    Case 580 decision, SK vs SM

    Does the M have joystick controls? My 580SM is a series 1 with the 4 lever and it is a awesome machine with 8800 hrs on it so far.

    JD 624J low lift power

    Broken wire or wire going to ground. Most cost effective thing to check first although admittedly the harnesses are in often difficult places. Sorry, I don't have any pin outs for that machine.

    Komatsu D155-1 Undercarriage Cost Ballpark

    Simon have you checked with Union Tractor? When I did undercarriage on my 220 excavator they were cheaper than SMS.

    Here are some more checks

    A25c no gear select

    Hmm, could be a few things. I would check and make sure that you are building full air pressure on your brake system prior to putting in gear. Another thing to check would be the rpm range when attempting to put it in gear. If you are over 900rpm it won't go into gear.

    Cat D6H LGP 2 overheating engine (coolant restrictor?)

    Sounds like you need to put on your auxiliary cooler full blast. It is a cab operated switch that gets turned into the red zone that may increase operator discomfort when active lol.
