    Can anyone ID this glass plate? (likely CASE)

    Never mind guys. Apparently I need to give up the booze, or get my head checked. This was supposed to be a photo to show the difference in fitment, but it turns out, she fits like a glove. I was certain that I'd checked already. Apologies for wasting your time on this.

    Can anyone ID this glass plate? (likely CASE)

    That was my initial thought, but I think the rear glass is all slightly curved (on the 580K at least). I'll double check the dimensions, but I think those door windows are a bit more triangular, and (from memory) the holes in the glass didn't quite marry up to the latches. I might try and take...

    Can anyone ID this glass plate? (likely CASE)

    Hey guys, I inherited a Case 580SK a few years back, and with it came many bits and pieces, including this glass panel that looks a bit like the windows on the backhoe. I suspect it's off a different model Case Backhoe and was picked up as a potential spare, but that's just a guess. I've no...

    Case 580 Super-K need operators manual.

    If anyone else needs one, I've done a pretty reasonable job of scanning mine.. It's a bit old and crusty, but it came out very legible. Send me a PM and I'll hook you up.

    Case 580SK can anyone identify this part?

    It's dished. I should've included that, I had just assumed it got a little mangled on it's way out. Thanks very much mate. Looks like it's going to be a greasy weekend for me. Thank you all. As always super helpful.

    Case 580SK can anyone identify this part?

    My 4wd and park brake aren't working at the moment either, so perhaps something broken there? I've had a skim through the parts manual, but nothing with that raised little tab in the middle is leaping out at me.

    Case 580SK can anyone identify this part?

    I was being a responsible owner and doing a transmission oil change the other day. Oil came out quite clean (no idea when it was last done). Moved onto the screen/filter and it came out very clean too. I was super happy until I put a magnet into the screen hole and pulled this out. It looks like...

    Case 580SK Clut Cutout not working

    Thanks for tips guys, I had a spare 15min yesterday, so I took a look and found someone had been into the cutout on the shifter before me (pic below). What a scrappy job. I've cleaned the wiring there, and checked both switches and they have continuity when the button is pressed, and then lose...

    Case 580SK Clut Cutout not working

    Thanks for the tip. After spending a few hours tracing wires and testing with the multimeter, if this ends up being the fix, I'm going to have mixed emotions. :D

    Case 580SK Clut Cutout not working

    Hi guys, I'm in the process of repairing/refurbing my Grandfathers ol'Backhoe. She's starting to come together, but there's still a handful of issues I've yet to figure out. What I'm working on now, is the clutch cutout. Pushing the CC button on either the FEL stick or the shifter, does...
