Finally got the beast out of the shop yesterday.
after 3 months of doing maintenance,replaced all the stick/bucket end pins n bushings. Replaced all the pump side intake and pressure hoses, fuel lines, radiator hoses, a lot of cleaning and electrical details and painted it. Fixed everything that I could see.
Still have a hydraulic leak/weep between the main pump and the gear pump thats on the end of it.
But to the question.
Ran about 5 hours yesterday doing various things, plowing snow, digging a big burn pit, digging n moving snow piles.
Problem -
I noticed every time I started to travel that after a little bit the house would be rotated the operators right a little, correct it and pretty soon it would again be rotated again.
The travel seems up to speed, surprisingly fast feeling for not having a high speed travel.
But all the other functions feel slow to me, especially the main boom lift. My last machine was a 2014 john deere 60G that I bought new. So I am not sure if its just my perception of having run the newer machine hundreds of hours and the old machines are just inherently slower.
Will have to do some of the Timed tests in the services manual when I get a chance.
Seems I ran across this house rotation problem on here but I cant find it now.
Whats the likely cause?
