    555E boom lock solenoid valve seals

    Thank ya sir! I completely forgot about McMaster. They had an obscure part I needed for a friend's mill back when too.

    555E boom lock solenoid valve seals

    I'm going by there tomorrow. Otherwise I'll have to buy the whole shebang, if I can even find that. Thanks.

    555E boom lock solenoid valve seals

    Does anyone happen to know where to source the 2 seals in the transport/ boom lock solenoid valve? I'm having a time finding anything.

    Repacking them didn't change anything. Thank you for the manual.

    555E Loader Woes

    Yessir, the lift cylinders are in question. I did almost all of them on the machine, as most were leaking externally. No external leaks before or after on the 2 loader lift cylinders.

    555E Loader Woes

    An error on my part is definitely in the realm of possibility. This is a first for me. I've done 25 or 30 cylinders, none with any issue so far. I'll check into that. Thanks. I'm chomping at the bit to diagnose it. Thank ya sir!

    555E Loader Woes

    Thank ya sir x 2! This is a first for me. I've repacked a couple dozen or better cylinders on various equipment over the last few years with no issues.

    555E Loader Woes

    I hope I'm putting this in the right place. I'm technologicallychlenged to say the least and steictly on a phone. I have a 555E backhoe and the loader will fall fairly quickly unless it's raised way up. It stays up fine if it's way up. I've repacked the cylinders thinking I had an internal leak...
