    ghel ctl 60

    Had similar issues on my old skid steer after I opened up the drive lines. Bucket worked fine but no travel. In my case, it wasn’t air in the lines. I think the hydrostat just wasn’t primed yet. I put the machine up on blocks and cranked the engine a few times without fully starting it. Then...

    580 SK Stuck Controls - Throttle and bucket controls - Oil leak - When will I learn?

    I wouldn't run that engine again until you figure out that oil leak and check the real pressure. To check it, you can usually find the oil pressure sending unit near the oil filter, unscrew it, and put a mechanical gauge in its place. For all the stuck controls, it's almost always rusted...

    Case 580K Hydraulic Pump

    Yep, both D149283 and D140801 are hydraulic pump part numbers for CASE 580K, 580SK and 580SL backhoe loaders. They are interchangeable.

    Case 90xt Joystick Lockout

    Maybe you could try swapping the relay for your bucket controls with another one that's exactly the same in your fuse box? Like the one for the horn or lights. It's an easy way to check if the relay itself is the problem.

    2012 Bobcat T650

    Hey there. Hondaracing brings up a very good point - is the whole sprocket assembly tilting, or just the teeth wearing funny? If the whole thing is tilting, I've seen that a couple of times on other machines. I'd definitely check what he suggested first-make sure the big bolts holding the...

    2012 case 580N parking brake will not release

    On those N series, the first thing I'd probably check is the simple stuff. When you flip the parking brake switch, can you hear a "click" from the solenoid? If it's silent, it could be a bad fuse, the switch itself, or the solenoid. If you do hear a click but it still won't release, it might be...

    980H torque converter getting hot

    I had a very similar headache on one of my loaders a while back. It turned out to be the torque converter cooler. It looked fine from the outside, but it was partially plugged up inside with fine gunk that a filter wouldn't catch. The oil couldn't flow through it fast enough to cool down once...

    Bobcat T76 Bobtach

    You'll probably just need the hydraulic cylinder for the Bob-Tach and a hose kit to run down the lift arm. I'd check online for an aftermarket kit; they usually come with everything you need. It's a pretty common project. Good luck with it

    1993 John Deere 410D Constant hydraulic pressure

    If you've checked all the external levers and pedals and confirmed they all return smoothly to the neutral position, but the problem persists, then the pump's internal compensator valve might be worth checking.

    2013 kobelco sk85 msr slow hydraulics

    When you say it stalls the machine, that makes me think it's a pressure problem. I'd probably look at the main relief valve first. It might be stuck closed. The dipper moving on its own is a classic sign of an internal leak, maybe in your main valve block.

    Deere 160C Coupler Hydraulic Supply

    I'd bet money that capped line you found is exactly what you're looking for. My guess is the old owner just slapped a cap on it when they took the old coupler off. That's definitely the first place I'd look. It's way easier than trying to tap into the main pump.

    Volvo wheel loader L220H

    Good call on checking the pumps. I'd also take a look at the oil cooler itself. Sometimes they just get plugged up with dirt and can't do their job. A good cleaning might be all it needs. Also, make sure your brakes aren't dragging, that can heat up the axles real quick. Good luck, hope it's...

    Bobcat t590 aux hydro stuck on

    Sounds like an electrical problem is keeping your aux hydraulics powered on. I had a similar thing once, and it turned out to be a bad solenoid on the main valve block that got stuck. Maybe that's a good place to start checking. Good luck, hope you get it sorted out.

    1845C Auxilliary Hydraulic Delete

    Hey there, I totally get wanting to simplify things and get rid of leaky hoses you don't use. That's a smart move to make maintenance easier down the road. But just capping the lines at the control valve might cause a headache later on. The main thing to worry about is if someone (or even you...

    Ex120-2 no lights on control and throttle dont work

    The other guy is right, definitely check fuses #1 and #6 first. If the fuses are good, I'd suspect a power relay. I had one act up just like that before—it would get warm and fail to reset on a quick restart.

    PC27R-8 Komatsu overheats when using bucket/hydraulics

    That's a really big clue when you say you don't see much water moving in the radiator, even with the thermostat out. I think you're getting real close to finding the problem. That points right to the water pump, just like you were thinking. Sometimes, even if a pump looks new on the outside, the...
