    Should I buy a PC88MR-10

    Yes, the machine is the biggest I can move with my dump and trailer… that’s why this size. Id rather have a cat, with a quick change bucked but those are too pricey.

    Should I buy a PC88MR-10

    I have a 35 now I think it’s slow too. However I don’t know any different. It’s for private use for now. When I retire I’ll take some jobs if I can. I’ll charge by the hour! Lol

    Komatsu pc35 mr-2 hydraulic issue

    I ended up replacing the gear pump. That pump would not make the listed PSI. My functions are better but still seems slow to me. I don’t have anything to compare to. However, I can move my boom up while tracking, that would stop my machine before. I also seem to have more power when turning and...

    Komatsu pc35 mr-2 hydraulic issue

    How many hours on this machine? I wonder where they got the parts to rebuild. I’ve checked my dealers here and they don’t have the parts? Cannot figure that out? I’ve tried to replace a couple of piston seals but cannot find the correct size. It fixes some of my issues for a few days.

    Komatsu PC35mr-2

    I’m working on my PC35mr-2. The hydraulics are giving me a Little grief as I have no experience and I don’t understand all the specifics. I have found that the control valve has something called shuttle valves, with piston seals. Im having a thought time finding new piston seals (see picture)...

    773 stalls lower power? Brake on? Need help.

    773 stalls lower power? Brake on? Need help.

    I’ll check the belt for the correct application. This doesn’t sound like a belt slipping. It sounds hydraulic to me but I’m not sure. I’ll try and post a video this weekend.

    Does the engine stall when the belt is slipping?
