    I was experimenting with it a little more today, left or right pedal gets the same reaction.

    On my S185 two speed machine, when the hydraulics are not engaged and I move the left foot pedal it seems to cause the hydraulic wedges to engage or disengage! What is the connection? Also, with the hydraulics engaged, if I hold the wedge switch up or down and move the foot pedal I can cause the...

    Tire Tread Direction

    Other than esthetics I don't think it matter which way the tire is mounted. Think about it, you probably go backwards as much as you go forward. It is more important that the amount of tread on each side tire is similar. You don't want an old worn tire on the front and a new tire on the back or...

    The SR 200

    Any comments, good or bad on the SR 200. I am thinking of getting one. One comment I heard was that there have been electrical issues with the newer CASE units. Apparently these issues get resolved in the field during the first few hundred hours.

    S185 Tilt plate bolts-bushings

    One side was very tight, the other side had a tad of movement. Does one have to get a hone with the correct angle to do that?

    S185 Tilt plate bolts-bushings

    Is the bushing-with the pin and threads pressed into the attachment plate housing? How is it held in there? Other than the grease nipple there are no bolts or anything that I can see to hold anything in place. Or is the housing machined with threads?

    S185 Tilt plate bolts-bushings

    Ok..so this "pin" that you pull into the lift arm - how do you do that? I guess what I would like to do is take the entire plate off of the lift arm so I can see what is going on. But as you say there is a pin that is holding the good side in place-do I just tap that pin back with a smaller size...

    S185 Tilt plate bolts-bushings

    One of my tilt plate bolts fell out today.. Where the tilt plate attaches to the lift arm. I put the unit in the shop and checked it out, compared it to the other side. It would appear that there is some sort of bushing in the tilt plate assembly that the bolts threads into. This is missing on...
