thanks for the input, if the "normal" weeping into the annular area is extremely small for healthy motor, wonder if a simple 1oz collection cup would work instead of plumbing a return from the various motors back to the tank and just be emptied checked every few months? or is "normal" weeping...

For you experienced hydraulic guys, what's the deal with this drain? seems like its leak rate is so low that a drain line will never really "flow" oil back to the tank???? mine drips but so slowly its just a wet spot on the paint (so i would like to stop it, guess it will increase with...

as others have stated - i don't think it will come even close, it will handle a 7.5 circular saw, it will not handle a very small 1 hp hand carry air compressor (no soft start). two 1500w space heaters will indicate exactly 100% load (3 kw) on the meter and it has no problems carrying that load...

was out running my crane and got some of my RPMs wrong in earlier post, mine runs on the governor at 1500 rpm.

might look into adjusting your governor on the fuel pump to govern up a bit. the TM gives the correct RPM, my memory, I think it should be about 1700 rpm, I also remember a warning about not running the crane PTO at less than 1500 rpm, but again check those numbers. when i'm on the crane my...

on the governor (crane PTO engaged) my engine runs at about 1700 rpm can't remember exactly, not sure where the PTO takes off the transfer case (how its geared) - but TM has you put it in 5th which is basically automatic. I've never heard the transmission "shift" when on the governor running...

I have not solved the issue, did drain the tank and change the filter - it was clean. installed a pressure gauge - but put it on the wrong side, so no info on pump pressure. must drain the tank again to move the gauge. that may indicate a weak pump. or if I have a collapsed line between...

the prices vary with how complete a "kit" you order, https://www.lodar.com/, and who your dealer is. I got mine thru bailey hydraulics they were way cheaper then grainger and others. Lodar sells a 24 v unit, i got the two air actuator kit, i think it was in the mid 700$ range (2 yrs ago)...

i bought the remote for the rear winch, but other projects have over taken its install, no not much to report. but it is one way to help solve the free spool issue when only one person is present.

that will be quite a cool mill, i've seen the cooks brand extra wide, it does 52 in i think, but yours will be impressive. but 99% of the trees around here are less than 3 ft, so my saw handles most of the stuff i can get. my other big issue is enough sheds to put the slabs in to dry... LOL

heres on of the top butt logs of the white oak

yes its a norwood lumbermate 2000 with a 13 hp engine (so on the smaller end of mills). so far i have no direct plans for the big WO logs... thinking live edge/resin tables as they have some rot in the core that makes it less useful for large wide straight lumber but could add a cool factor for...

excellent, i use my wrecker for similar logs, move 5 ft dia white oak, figured each 8 ft butt log was pushing 2 tons. love your big the saw, i only have a 36 in bar. pic is not the big logs

I make most lifts with out putting the outriggers (jacks) out. the decision is based on weight of load, truck being level, and how far out the load will go. for me most lifts are in the 100's of lbs to 1 ton, so on level ground, not fully extended over the side, the truck hardly knows its...

torque rod ends Simp is a great source, my 2 cents is the HD all metal joints are super expensive, and the rubber ones lasted 30 yrs, so not sure the metal means longer life. one thing i read while i was selecting what to do with mine. the metal are actually hyme-joints if i understand it...

update on leveling jack, got it off the trailer (yes its heavy, managed to not drop it on my foot...LOL). first thing i then noticed is the square end of the shaft that you put the handle on, is a pressed on piece. mine was spinning on the shaft. so looked for a shear pin or other means of...

I have a M936A1, as stated above its fun. i use it for hobby logging. over all its does what i need safely and lets me recover logs of more or less any size. relatively cheap to buy (compared to commercial trucks in the same condition), less so to operate. down side is, its a lot of stuff to...

I have a M1061A1 trailer and one of the leveling jacks appears to not be working (mine has square legs), handle turns but the leg does not retract or extend. the manual TM-9-2330-376-14 only shows the leg as a unit and no interior details as to how it works. So two questions: has any one...

Dav5 - good to know, i have a 240 3/4 hp deep well, never tried it on my 831 (need to do the math but bet it exceeds 3kw inrush current ability), because when it hits my 14kw generac generator it notices the load at start. my 831 will run a dewalt 7 1/2 circular saw with no issues plus a box...

and 1500$ is average going rate for a good one, they have been going up at the auction sites. also if it has the solar charger - nice extra.
