I have all the PDFs extracted of everything I could find. I have them stored with the file names describing the subject. I was going to copy and paste the directory and put it on the front page along with an acknowledgement to CHOPRBOY. There may be a way of putting hot links into the PDF file...
One other project I have been doing is collecting all the PM magazine articles and references to SEEs and on rare occasions HMMHs into one PDF. Someone (CHOPRBOY) on the Benz World Forum did a major favor by going through 20 years of the magazine and had posted them in number of posts but they...
That enabled me to try stuffing group 31s into the SEE
The prior owner of my rig did the same mod with what I believe are group 31 AGMs. They fit well except the height is bit tight. Hooking up that last terminal requires some care. I wrapped a wrench with electrical tape just to make sure I...
I am pretty sure its an air leak. While replacing the air line that runs from the air pressure regulator to that fitting, the tee failed. There is no good way to get a backup wrench on the tee so breaking loose the airline really torques the tee. There is a male thread on the tee that cracked on...
I am definitely interested in one and PMed him a few days ago. I really hope there are pin out diagrams for the connectors. I don't have the scanner (I usually have Staples do my large format scans) but I do have 24by 36 plotter.
2. Does anyone have a link to a video or a simple procedure on how to remove the loader and backhoe?
I haven't seen a video but have read a few comments. The loader really needs a jack with a square post that pins into the square receptacle on the loader frame. There was a special service tool...
I am curious if part of the problem with the fuse panel is that many of the SEEs are missing their hoods. This design is definitely poor as I expect that many folks that have a hood leaves them off. My SEE is also missing the clear plastic covers over the fuse panel which also potentially...
Unfortunately another Technical Service Bulletin issue. There is a steel deck designed for someone to step on in the back of the SEE. Its only usable with the backhoe deployed. Some genius cut a hole in the deck plate to access the cover for the alcohol reservoir (labeled antifreeze to boot)...
Good point. I should probably look into getting something like the Wabco. Especially if the front mounted snow blower becomes reality.
I collected what documentation I could for the unit but there is definitely an assumption that someone installing it has a background with air dryers. There...
Its not just Texarkana. My SEE was never in that depot as far as I can determine. It came from depot in VA and was shipped to Texas where it sat out on a farm. I think its just the local wildlife. If you ever watch Gas Monkey Garage or the spin off, almost all the junkers they buy are loaded...
There might be two warning buzzers one for low air pressure but there is also a system described on 3-215 titled
71. LOW OIL PRESSURE AND HIGH WATER TEMPERATURE ALARM WILL NOT SOUND WITH
PRESS-TO-TEST SWITCH DEPRESSED.
This is supposed to be audible from the backhoe seat so it must be really...
Great news on the progress, One circuit that I didn't need to delve into is the warning buzzer system. I think it will go off with loss of air pressure oil pressure and possibly engine high temp but it was intentionally disconnected on mine. The wiring appears complete, but the buzzer is...
That darn paint they applied is tenacious in spots. They applied so much it gunked up the breather vent on my fuel tank and was a factor in breaking fittings on my air system.
Given how lumpy the top coat is I would envision that the body would need to be stripped to get a good paint finish if...
Hi all, the SEE thread is getting huge and difficult to search through. I expect many new folks don't realize that their bug has been discussed multiple times. The alternative is to create separate threads that hopefully would be limited to one specific bug. I could definitely see one thread for...
