    Helpful Source to Identify Proper Fluids

    I didn't go through them all but I do note they got the transmission fluid correct. A warning to all SEE owners is you need GL4 not GL5 rated fluids for the transmission. GL5 replaces GL4 in most applications but on Unimog's the additive package in GL5 will eat the synchronizers. GL5 is fine for...

    Proper gear/range for using front bucket for excavation

    Moving around several yards of dirt with the loader on a SEE is just what its made for. Leveling out rough terrain is definitely not unless the soil has been previously broken out unless someone got real lucky at the auction and picked up one of the very rare 419 models that have a bulldozer...

    Proper gear/range for using front bucket for excavation

    FYI the SEE is a loader not a bull dozer. It moves loose materials quite well but try to dig down into hard ground and it will stall out or in some situations stall and the engine will restart running backwards. If it does run backwards, quickly stall it as there is no lubrication going through...

    If you a messing with the fuel system, make sure you order a gasket for the fuel strainer. Its a common issue that introduces air leaks on the suction side of the fuel system.

    Flu 419 Lost all gears in intersection

    The air selector on the shifter basically splits the difference between each gear. I don't see its of great value for normal operations. I could tell the difference when its in or out. If its still has the stock Michelin tires, 30 MPH is about as fast as you want to go. Make sure you lock the...

    Flu 419 Lost all gears in intersection

    FYI, I dont know how cold it was down in CT but SEEs have wet air systems with no good way of removing water. This can build up and freeze if the temps are below freezing. If you run them below freezing you need to turn the alcohol injection system on and fill the alcohol bottle. Unfortunately...

    Should I buy this thing?!? Lol

    If you have only have a short term need rent something. If you have long term need and am willing and able to work on it yourself then maybe. The problem with SEEs are some got beat up hard and put away wet by the military, others just sat in storage for years. Both will need sorting out which...

    FLU-419 - Instrument Cluster In-op

    Attached is copy of my field notes from my rat damage tracing. No guarantees on how readable they are. My writing skills have really gone to seed since I do almost everything on a keyboard. I think what you need is there as I went through the same project before one of the members found the...

    Changing SEE Tires

    I had to break down and mount two SEE tires this week to finally get my Pirellis mounted. It took me about 1/2 hour each with the right tools. The big key is tire lube. On the first one I forgot to lube up the rim and the impact driven tool to pull the tire off the rim would not touch it. I...

    Considering what the OP (and a lot of prior folks) thought might be wrong, $132 is a cheap fix even if I was off by $118 bucks. I haven't had to install one yet but I have one on inventory.

    I just got off 6 months on and off trying to chase down a no start condition on a 1987 Bronco with fuel injection that had been parked since 2000. I had to do a frame repair so the body had to be removed which probably didn help. I learned far more than I ever wanted to know about diagnosing...

    The student handout in the misc technical manual forum has details on the STE/ICE system including what pin goes where. The value of the STE/ICE appears to be that the STE/ICE box had a memory chip with the working range of values of each circuit. I have not seen a list of these values. The...

    sorry i missed this one. I will give you my standard answer, it depends what you are comparing the see to. The see is not going to compete with a new on the lot digitally controlled tier 4 complaint cat, jd or case. On the other hand the cost for a see is a downpayment for what you would pay for...
