could be lift cylinders need rebuild/new seals fluid may be bypassing in one direction only due to damaged seals ..

if anyone wants a complete 853 service manual ,its yours for the shipping cost..

yes some feedback would be nice...i have a 331 with the keyless start ..from brand new i have never been able to get the pressure to release on the aux. it's a little harder to get the system on without starting the machine ,because the on button is the start button . You have to tap it real...

also the full flow / variable flow button on my machine just sets weather triggering any of the switches will give you full flow or not ...in variable flow you can get slower flow with less thumb movement of the toggle switch if you are trying to move an implement slowly for any reason

you use the word trigger ..on my s220 the trigger( index finger ) turns the flow on /off ,only.in what i refer to a forward flow ..the get forward/ reverse i must use the thumb left/right toggle on the right hand control stick. don't know if this clarifies any thing and ,no , i'm not familiar...

the cooler on top of the radiator is the hydraulic oil cooler . like the last post the engine probably reved because the pumps were unloaded as they ran out of oil . the shut down was the computer detecting the loss of pressure and protecting the system by shutting down ..if you have the...

i believe someone had a post about this problem earlier..his blocks had deteriorated to the point he needed to replace them ,as i recall they were quite expensive . after his post i removed my covers to have a look see,,packed full of dirt . i pressure washed them and noticed the same sort of...

don't know about parts online but i do know the frustration of trying to describe a part to the parts guy ....when i bought my last machine ,after getting the options ,buckets all worked out and the price ..i said the deal closer is ..throw in the complete service manual and the parts book and...

siduramaxde..you are correct that the newer bobcat buckets have the holes drilled for bolt ons ..but unless i'm mistaken you still have to bolt on shanks...then put teeth on them ..so still the 20/25 buck a tooth cost ...unless someone makes a bolt on throw away tooth ????

if any help my 843 was a 1983 vintage don't know what yr of build you have ....

someone posted this problem before ...not sure how it was resolved ..in my case i had an 843 with the same problem ..mine was caused by a cold weather by pass valve in the system ..it looked like a T in the return side of the system with one hose leading to the reservoir...it had something stuck...

typically you don't put teeth on a bucket ...teeth wear out ...you either bolt on or weld on shanks that the teeth are then attached to with pins of one type or another .. quick web search brought up these guys ...http://www.messicks.com/dept/BucketTeeth.aspx.... their prices are typical ..i use...

i had a similar problem with a 843 i owned ..near the tank is a line with a tee in it ,one hose or tube going the tank . the tee is a check valve ..cold weather bypass valve .. on my machine the valve got a little bit of something stuck in it and allowed the oil to run under pressure back into...

when you mentioned geometry i thought you were referring to the amount of force the thumb could apply ...the factors involved would the ram size and the distance from the pivot where the ram is mounted ,,,the oem thumb does look like it is better suited to grabbing larger loads and logs ,,,even...

yes i see that the one you linked is more of a convex than concave design ...does the ram look a little bigger ..maybe that makes up for the geometry ..what did you pay for your oem model ....the price on the link looked pretty good ...
