Would it be possible to do an ordinary preassure test on each cylinder? I know some skids are quite compact and it might be hard to fit the probes but a preassure test will give you a good indivation if the top, the head gasket, pistons and their rings are okay. I regret now knowing about this...
That's great to hear. I'd really like to have that "lock" as well as it's quite heavy and I don't want to be chopped into two pieces when messing around under the seat ;-)
Hi, The link to the parts catalogue unfortunately gave me this 403 error message but I had a look in a PDF that someone posted (see attatched picture) for the 642 model and found the following part numbers:
6700171:
#10, CYLINDER GAS, W/O lock - Also Order 6675257 clevis - Was
6700000
or...
Alright thank's for the heads up. Do you know if left/right cylinders are the same? I recon that there are different part numbers for left vs. right?!?
Interesting and I guess anything that can narrow down the machine to a unique individual is great when you buy a used (and old) one. Called Bobcat here in Sweden but they could not tell me much about mine even though I gave them the s/n. It was too old according to them 🤨
Hi friends,
The cab on my 643 is super heavy. It's extremely hard to tilt it even by two full grown men (jokes welcome 😁).
There are two gas springs/dampers, one on each side of the cab. Se picture below. I've also notised that some models have a horizontal "spring" between the chassie and cab...
Hello fellow skidsteerers,
Bought this old guy last year. Needs quite a bit of love to get back into shape but I'm curious about the numbers 275 on the upper side frame. Are these just numbers added by a former construction company to keep track of their skidsteer fleet or does the number...
