    FLU419 SEE HMMH HME Owners group

    Sorry, I don't have a clue what speeds the 'blower parts turn. I run the engine at about 2,000 to make the blower turn as fast as possible, but the downside is, of course, that then the SEE moves faster, too.

    That's easy enough to work around, by running a longer feed line between the two.

    FLU419 SEE HMMH HME Owners group

    Why worry about the alky injection in the first place? Your climate can't be that different from mine, right? I haven't filled the reservoir on the Winter SEE for years now, and the Summer SEE doesn't even have a reservoir (after I stole it and put it on the Winter SEE). I don't think I've...

    Meanwhile, mine stays in Low range and I couldn't care less if its top speed was 5 mph. To me, the SEE is so much more fun than a regular tractor or backhoe. Now, if I used it commercially it would be a different story. But I'm not, so the learning expperience and fun factor easily outweighs...

    FLU-419 assistance needed

    It's no fun, but yes, it's adjustable. Replacing all three is even less fun, but if you do that they should be good for a while.

    Make them, or have them made. I doubt there's anywhere a complete set is laying around and for sale.

    FLU-419 assistance needed

    Pull the doghouse and you'll see the P/S reservoir. But most likely it's a loose belt that creates the noise.

    Should I buy this thing?!? Lol

    One of the costlier mistakes I've made (and there has been many) was not buying a backhoe several years ago. Conversely, eventually buying a SEE was one of the better moves I've made.

    Funny, Pinsandpitons, I (re)noticed that gizmo the other day and also wondered. Only long enough to think "Oh well". though.

    Flu419 SEE troubles

    Check if the splitter is in one of its two positions, instead of in between, before tearing anything apart. Or at least I would.

    Great, now I know why I haven't seen any email notices lately. This site has also been "improved". Oh well, it was nice while it lasted.

    Bought it at the local NAPA, but it was years ago so I don't remember the price. It wasn't expensive. Actually, I thought that they wouldn't last very long, and bought several. And the one I did change (on the Winter SEE) turned out not to be empty.

    Guess I could pull the canister off, which would stop the year-round injection, or fix whatever causes it. But why? As mentioned, I like the smell. As long as mine starts down to -20, I'm happy. That's about as cold as it gets here. Of course, if I somehow forgot the anti-gel it really wouldn't...

    Flu419 front hydraulic system normal pressure?

    Uh, oh, sorry to hear that, Tarek. Not that you're recuperating, but that you got in a wreck. Try to take it easy for a while. I never do, but have been told that it really helps.

    The headers are solid lumber, but not solid enough for my liking. A glue lam would've probably been better. I'll weld up some steel supports at some point. At least the posts are real steel, not firewood like the headers.

    FLU419 SEE HMMH HME Owners group

    Here you go, from left to right; Summer, Winter, and all season. Of course, I use them as needed and the "Winter" moniker is because that's the one that's set up to accept the snow blower. Conversely, the Summer SEE has the better wheels and tires (and bucket) for doing normal ditch work. But...

    Hmm. I thought I posted a pic of their new "house" (okay, carport) a while back? Anyway, the HMMH has a corner spot, then the Winter SEE, and next to it is the Summer SEE. Guess I'll take a new photo tomorrow, proving that I got the tire chains and snow blower installed on the Winter SEE a...

    That point must be above 80 degrees, or so, as that's about as hot as it gets here. And the Winter SEE happily squirts some even then.

    FLU419 SEE HMMH HME Owners group

    The one in my Winter SEE works fine. Almost too good, as it seems to squirt some ether into the system automatically, at each start. But that's okay since I like the smell. I get the cans at the local Napa, but don't remember the cost. They're fairly cheap, though. Changed the can in the Winter...

    Proper gear/range for using front bucket for excavation

    The blade works fine on regular dirt, a prairie dog infested pasture in this case. But it's not heavy enough to do actual dozing work on harder stuff. And if it does dig in, the SEE won't push it. For moving larger amounts of dirt, the 10-foot snow pusher I put a cutting blade on is more...
