This is for anybody who currently owns and or operates a 2003 CASE 580M/Super M Backhoe loader in addition to a 2011 580N/Super N.
I am developing a 3D model of the CASE 580M/Super M Backhoe loader in Blender (with a special waste handler package) along with a standard road work-based Case 580 Super N WT. While I was browsing auction images, I discovered a critical detail: the dashboard:
The M series doesn't have the dashboard button-installed parking brake (the park brake is a lever like many early 2000s vehicles) and it only has a traditional rolling style hour meter to show it's service hours.
The 2011 M and N series utilize a newer computerized digital screen on the dashboard and have a toggle switch park brake.
But alas... I have yet to find a picture of the dashboard with the glass clear of and and lighting clear enough to get proper footage all of the indicators used on this model of CASE backhoe. - Be it high beams, low fuel, alternator voltage, engile oil pressure, air restriction, pre heat, etc. I had no luck seeking an online copy of the CASE 580M operator's manual either.
And just to be extra safe, I could also use an image of the Super N's indicators lit up without that sun light or dust. - To see if there are any slight differences between the early M series and late N series models.
