    Small Bucket

    Search for stump bucket and you will find plenty of results. I've been happy with Bradco, Paladin and Virnig. I avoid Titan aka palletforks.com.

    Hello from Chilean Patagonia and who could help me with my attachment problems

    Can you post a picture of the connectors on the skid steer? I doubt you have a case drain, as it would be a third or fifth connection on the block on the machine. Good news is you can run a case drain to the hydraulic tank yourself if you don't have one. We do it on midi excavators when...

    Flail mower extension

    Well, since you don't have a door, when you angle that cutter over the bank, you will be shooting debris right at your head and body.

    Flail mower extension

    I will tell you to be careful with that three point hitch. Unlike a tractor, the arms are fixed into position which means if you hit something you will bend the plate where the arms bolt up or the arms themselves. At that point, it becomes real hard to slide the arms for different equipment...

    FACTORY GLASS CAB DOOR FOR A 2076 2086 GEHL MUSTANG SKID STEER

    Here: https://www.skidsteerdoor.com/#!/Gehl-Manitou-Mustang-Skid-Steer-Door/p/577564527/category=24091076 I wouldn't get glass anyway. Lexan is safer especially if you use a mower.

    Novice ASV SR-80 Owner/Operator with Start-Up Issues

    Definitely check fuses. Also, is there a kill switch that prevents the machine from starting? Most equipment has a switch you can turn to the off position that prevents the machine from starting. Generally it is a red rocker switch in a somewhat inconspicuous location.

    Hydraulic oil recommendation

    I could understand that, but the new machines are still coming with the same recommendations to use 10w-30, so I don't believe the additive packages is damaging to the pumps. Also, people have mentioned that the machine makers might recommend an oil which the pump manufacturer wouldn't. That's...

    Hydraulic oil recommendation

    My excavator calls for AW-46 My CTL calls for 10w-30 That's what they get. It's really that simple. In the long run, there really isn't much difference in those two fluids. I really don't understand why people overthink these decisions so much. Finally, 303 was garbage and caused a lot of...

    Thread sealant?

    569 is for permanent connections and generally used in Natural Gas applications. That being said, for your sight glass, it probably would be an okay application, as you aren't removing that. You'd need heat to remove it though. Loctite 545 is the correct sealant for normal hydraulic/air...

    9 Ton Equipment Trailer

    You should get real weights. Jyuma is probably correct that the three axles are preventing it from going any lower. If it is truly negative, you should be able to lift the tongue without too much effort, but I suspect you can't. Raise the pintle hitch on the truck, lower the lunnette ring...

    Hydraulic Fluid?

    Since Case/NH quit specifying the "smurf fluid", they switched to 10-30w motor oil. I know that Takeuchi specifies the same for the hydraulic system.
