    Repair Lift for Skid Steer

    Thanks so much. I'll check it out. My one concern is the lift capacity. My NH LS 170 weighs in at close to 5600 lbs.

    Repair Lift for Skid Steer

    I hope not repeating an old thread. I can't seem to find anything similar here. Can anyone tell me if there is a portable type scissor/auto lift for making repairs on a skid steer? I search the web and all I get are lift attachments. I'm looking for one that the tires would ride on so the belly...

    ls170

    Changed out the sensor. Very simple. The machine is staying on. Before I changed out the sensor, I raised the boom in order to remove the side plate and set the locks. Correct me if I'm wrong, this is an important step in preventing the boom from coming down when the sensor is removed as there...

    Was also wondering if I bypassed the sensor with a jumper wire and the engine stayed on, would that verify the switch being bad? Found the part number after looking at switch decal.

    ls170

    I know this post is old but it got the answer I needed. My LS170 is shutting down even after running for hours. Charge Pressure light came on and within 30 seconds it shut down. Strange thing though, it gave a readout saying "Cold" with the count down despite running for hours. Any clues? Also...

    Local NAPA located replacements. They are 9/16" fine threaded. Grouser calls for a 2.25" long stud.

    How do I adjust the parking brake on a LS170

    Finally got around to the brake adjustment. I followed Jerry's advice on a previous posting by another member on the procedure. I also used my operators manual that came with the machine. I managed to make the adjustment and it works fine. There is very little room work and at 6' 3" it's even...

    Grouser Wheel Spacers 2001 LS 170

    Thanks Jerry I actually measured the spacer and they are 1.5" not 2"-my mistake. I'm assuming only the length is different between the two. I'll check their site.

    Grouser Wheel Spacers 2001 LS 170

    I have a 2001 LS 170 with the Grouser 2" wheel spacers. The studs broke off the spacers due to a loose wheel. Does anyone know the stud size? Thread pitch? etc...

    new holland ls180 boom does not operate

    I just went through this with my 2001 LS170. My seat was shot (2nd one-aftermarket generic via Northern Tool). The cracks in the seat allowed the foam to get water logged and then froze up. Safety switches could not be activated. I needed to use the machine that day so we removed the seat...

    How do I adjust the parking brake on a LS170

    Thanks Jerry. Found it. The manual that came with the machine when I bought it new is ok and it describes the brake adjustment procedure. This description is better. Brake all of a sudden stopped working about 5 years ago. Yes, I have been prolonging the fix. Love this machine. Tires, oil...
