NH Lw170 won't charge?

$
0
0
I have a 1800 hour Lw170 that won't charge the battery's. I think this Is the same machine as a case 621 or 721.

I put new battery's and a alternator on it. Cleaned up the starter, battery and alternator connections. Ran fine for one day. Then today it ran for about an hour and the electronics pulled down and died.

Any ideas or common grounds to clean?

Thanks

CAT 3126b in a 950g11 loader

I replaced injector cups in a 3126b huii engine. My question is, when I get in to Electronic Technician I can't find where to enter the injector codes? Do you not enter the codes for these engines? Do I have a limited version of ET which doesn't allow this? Do I not know how to use what I have? Also this thing still seems to fire a little slow after it sits for a while and I wanted to watch both cam/crank sensors separately can I do that? I am thinking it may have low compression in a couple of the cylinders because when its cold she smokes a bit and that may be what keeps from firing up? almost 19.000 hours on this engine...................Thanks.........TIO

Case 1840 Parking Brake Replacement, New Member, New Question

$

Hey everyone,

I'm new to this forum and a proud new owner of a 2000 Case 1840. I am in middle of a proactive parking brake cable replacement on this machine and have run into a problem with a stuck spacer on one of these assemblies. Everything I've read and everyone I talk to says that once you remove the clips the spacer, spring, and pin should come right out... well mine didn't. The one I did get out took a couple hours of yanking on what was left of the cable to get the assembly out. The spacer that is still stuck has run out of cable from all my yanking and my knuckles are now bandaged and my kids are scared from my swearing. Any tricks to working these spacers out? Here are a couple pictures to help describe my dilemma. One of them shows the whole assembly out.

Thanks ahead of time for any feedback.

Hyundai Wheel Loaders.

I would be interested to hear of members experiences with Hyundai Wheel Loaders, particularly the HL760-9 and what they think about Hyundai Equipment in general.

Hyundai have an established dealership here in Adelaide now and are another contender in the earthmoving field. The feedback so far, is that the contractors who have Hyundai loaders are very pleased with them.

We have a Hyundai SUV and we are very impressed with it, if their earthmoving equipment is built the same, it should be pretty good.

I believe the engine in my 520b is an 358t. Has anyone ever swapped a dt466 or 366 in place of the 358t? If so, was it worth it? Or maybe 5.9 cummins, that's what the dresser 520 had I was told. Many thanks Tony

Wheel Loader Advice Please

$

I'm looking for some advice on purchasing an older Wheel Loader, Gonna try and keep this short. I purchased some property a few years back that somewhere along the line prior owners went in with a logging skidder and rutted out the lanes pretty deep, I have been using my track steer to move in fill dirt to re-fill the ruts to make riding a 4 wheeler and walking the property a little easier. I am finding that I am wasting so much time with the little bucket moving dirt on the steer going from the front to the back that this will take an eternity to get it done. I am a weekend warrior and looking to get possibly a wheel loader with say a 2 or 3 yard bucket to make moving dirt more efficient. I am a one man army and working on a budget somewhere in the area of 15000 or less for a toy so to speak. I considered renting one but they are a small fortune to rent. I was looking at Track Loaders also but they seem to have so many different areas on maintenance and things that can go wrong. There is a guy here in Fenton that has an old Allis Chalmers 545 he's asking 10K for the machine, there is also a Cat 910 for 14000 not to far away also. The 545 has the long stroke 6 cylinder USA made machine probably late 60's, tires are checked, I am waiting for the guy to get it out of storage so I can test drive it, have yet to look at the Cat machine up close and personal. Any thoughts on which would be best for someone that is looking to save time and energy as I don't want to be wrenching on it more than I am utilizing it? What should I be focusing on when I am checking these units out? I don't care about heat, AC, cab, no cab etc. I figure I have at least 2 or 3 summer weekends worth of work for the unit so that's why I am wanting to purchase one and then I could always sell it off if it starts to sit around more than it's being used. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Volvo L70D valvechest

My L70D is dropping slowly ,nothing strange. When I go to lift it first drops a little and when I stop lifting it drops about 4 inches straight away . If I pull the lift lever a small amount only it will drop from top to bottom in about 10 seconds with no attachment fitted . I pulled the load holding valve and the peg valve from the lift side of the valve block . The load holding valve did have a bit of wear where it seats so I switched with the one from the tilt out section . All the O rings and backup rings looked O K but I changed them anyway (always keep a set) . The tilt out would not hold any pressure but I doubt it is connected . My problem is still the some . Its like the holding valve is opening prematurely or something .
Anyone got any ideas ?

Michigan 55a

I have an old Michigan loader with the 3-53 Detroit. It runs good, everything works like it should for a fifty year old machine, but I can't keep it ideling. I've adjusted the valves and what not according to the service manual but the idle speed screw doesn't seem to do anything. I've screwed it all the way in and out with the engine running but nothing changes. The engine runs smooth, there doesn't seem to be anything else wrong other then idle speed, so I'm guessing it's governor related. Do the governors on these wear out? Or did I miss something? The governor's a DW-LS. If there is someone who knows more about these any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Case 580b boom

Hi, have been working on a project to replace my boom valve body with a joy stick valve. I found a 480b and pulled the boom valve and stabilizer valve. I installed everything in my 580b and now i can only get the stabilizers to work. When i try to energize the boom the pump dead heads. I used the port on the stabilizer valve marked BYO to feed the main valve. I called coleman for a sleeve for the power beyond port but he said the 480 does not show a part for that valve. I must have a plumbing issue, does anyone know if i should go to the main valve first and then to the outrigger valve. The loader works fine.

Hyundai HL740(TM)-7 Oil Cooler Problem

Would anyone know where to get the specs for the oil cooler that attaches next to the radiator.
I am trying to get an oil cooler made for it and I can't have my machine down any longer than possible.
If i can get the specs to the manufacturer without taking it out and sending it there it will save so much time.

The custom build is much cheaper than one from Hyundai and maybe more reliable.

Thanks

For turning Compost. Wheel Loader or Excavator?

$
0
0
Hi all, I am looking to open a second compost site with a larger machine than what I use now. Currently I use a JD CT 332 which is a compact track machine. Very powerful, with a 2 yard bucket on it. I can turn a 70 ft long windrow in about an hour. I'd like to upgrade to a wheel loader with a 4 yard bucket at least OR an excavator with the bucket turned the other way around for scooping.

Imagine that each windrow of compost is about 18 ft wide, 6 ft tall and 70 ft long. There are about 8 of these windrows all next to each other, parallel. You have about 1000 cubic yards in total. When its time to turn all the windrows, you start at the last windrow and put it into a large storage pile (because its finished). You then move on to the 2nd to last windrow which goes onto the empty slot where the last windrow was. The 3rd to last windrow goes where the 2nd to last windrow was, and so on...

I could see an excavator being able to start in between a pile and an empty slot, then just scoop, swivel and dump. This seems faster than using a wheel loader. Plus easier on the ground because of less driving. However my gut tells me that a wheel loader is still the right choice.

A few concerns...
-I will have difficulty scooping the bottom of the windrow that is near the ground. I will end up scooping up dirt which overtime could ruin the grade of the site.
-For the price of a used wheel loader with a 4yd bucket (50k?), can I find an excavator with a bucket big enough to be faster than that wheel loader?
-Mud, I need to operate year round. How will a wheel loader do on soft ground? Its not clays like in the south east, i'm in new england and this ground is fill that has been compacted.


Compost can be up to 1500lbs per yard FYI.


Thanks all

I'm currently working on a case 621b the brake pressure warning light is on and it won't move in first and second gear with I think is what its suppost to do from what i've read so far we've replace the relief valve and pressure switch cause our dealer said the problem is probably in the valve well they were wrong. So I guess i need to start checking pressures starting at the pump does anyone know what the pressures should be or have any other suggestions also is there another source for any of these brake valve parts?thanks my dealer seems clueless

Need a little help This L70D has issues with short to ground in the UA harness! Customer had a root kick up hitting Power reducing /Charge pressure valve. destroying the harness plug with the diode fitted inside of plug also, they wired the plug in " looks to be backwards " need to know if ground wire must be on terminal 1 with diode mark there to that side so to allow 24 volts wire to be in lug 2 with diode leaving 3 terminal open and wireless. Is this correct?

Next on the pressure reducing valve i ohm tested the terminals and found #1 to #2 are closed the ohms reading .003 or connected is this valve bad because when i unplug this plug my short to ground is stopped on UA plug SE504 im sure is part of this circuit if i unplug this short to ground stops also i sure these plugs share a blue and white + 24 v some how the same blue n white wire supply CU 201 So to operate the pull and hold. "fuel leaver run solenoid" MA201 any understanding of this loader is self taught over the last few days,
A little help from someone with experience would be great
