Thanks for the iput, In the long term i will work out how to set this turntable up properly myself, at the moment i have a few other machines to fix that are more important. I know mechanics can have a bad day, i am one and I do.
I received a roller and a grader that went in to cat dealer for 500hr services and pre purchase inspection. The grader was to have the turntable repaired as it was an existing problem, it also come with no transmission oil showing on the dipstick. the roller has a coolant leak from the back of the water pump, low hyd oil and a vibe problem that was supposed to have been fixed, as well as other misc items. oil and water pump will be on the next plane. I could wear one or two items but this is a bit much. As far as calling the dealer, its a 3 leg plane flight to get the ones that worked on it here or a 3 day each way barge trip, so thats not going to happen.
Thats cool though, dirt will get moved, wheels will turn and machines will break down, thats life here
cheers
