[QUOTE="heatpumpproducts, post: 12640, member: 1332"] I have a L565 skid steer NH , and this week have instaled a heater unit , i got from ebay for 167 canadian . i have bought the controls from the dealer as well as the valve , but had to see a friend with a ls170 to see how the water lines run on his took some pics , will try to post then . i installed and built a box mounted to the top of the ropps at the back .and readded the lights . i take a few more pics as i go . and add them soon . it gets to -20 here and sometimes -30 but i understand its not good to run the machine at that temp . i used a heavy gage pan upside down to hold the one piece blower/heater core and built the sides up with metal panels and selftapping screws (sheet 3/16)and overlaped the corners with angle made of the same . the top is not finished . i hope to use a cover and a one piece hinge that is somewhat weather proof . all said it will be the nice to just have warmth at least . WHILE HAVE SO MUCH FUN ... #1 heater blower 2 speed . #2 control valve dealer part N.H. #3 heater controlers switches and cable #4 5/8" hoses from canadian tire . #5 fittings at the mainfold and water pump (look for the plugs ) #6 90deg & 2xnipples 1/2 " outside dia.
