Does anyone need a seal kit for the tall hydraulic jack? Cost is $41 from the manufacturer but shipping from Germany a minimum of $54. I'll spread the shipping cost over multiple kits if there is interest. LMK.

The whole STE/ICE-R harness is easy to remove after tilting the cab. Makes the rest of the wiring and plumbing easier to troubleshoot if necessary.

I think you have to pressurize through the front glad hand similar to when the FLU419 is being towed and supplied with air by the towing vehicle.

This sounds like either a severe restriction in the fuel lines to or from the pump or a pinhole in the suction line that lets air in. The Flu419 fuel system is easy to bleed and from my observation self-bleeding if you get the engine running with the content of the double filter housing. With...

You need to buy a brake reservoir cap or two, drill a hole into the cap(s) and plumb the garden sprayer hose into it. Here is my system (available as a loaner tool if you pay for shipping):

Thanks for the offer but it looks that I got the dimensions needed to fabricate the plate. (Translated into German: Danke für das Angebot. Es sieht so aus, als ob jetzt ich alle Dimensionen habe, um die Platte herzustellen.)

Hold your horses, gentlemen! I just got some drawings for the mounting plate emailed from Wausau Equipment here in the USA. Fortunately, they only used one size in the States. That means that every Wausau plow with that mounting system will fit on the same vehicle plate. For building custom...

Hi Migginsbros, I am thinking about mounting a front plate according to DIN 76060A, DIN 76060B, EN 15432 F1 or EN 15432 F2 (in Germany generally known as "Kommunalplatte") between/below the SEE front mount for the Schmidt FL4 loader like shown here. These type of plates are standard on a lot of...

On the air pressure system, work your way from the compressor down to the components first checking for blockage and then for leaks. You will be surprised how much junk can be in the regulators and alcohol injection valve. If your SEE had been sitting any time without the hood and deteriorated...

I used a cutoff wheel to slit the hinge bracket vertically, drove the pin stub out, and then tack welded the slit.

Good to know that it is possible. Connecting the hoses on the vehicle side will also keep the circuit open and would prevent damage to the pump and/or high pressure hose in case the PTO is engaged accidentally.

The problem with leaky cylinders on the backhoe is that a lot of the seals are below the level in the hydraulic tank. The oil keeps slowly seeping past the spools in the lever valves and drips out of the busted cylinder seals whether you use the hoe or not. Disconnecting the two main hoses going...

My tank has a removable, round lid with suction tube, return, and level sender attached to it. There is an additional pipe bung welded in on top of the tank where the vent fitting is screwed in. I was referring to the latter.

Just found out that my vent on top of the fuel tank had a valve in it that would only let air OUT of the tank. While that would make sense for deep fording, it did not allow enough air into the tank to replace the burned fuel volume and at some point the engine would starve of fuel. When I tried...

The angle fittings with the orifices are easy to remove after pushing out the pin on the cylinder rod end and tilting the whole cylinder to vertical. That position is also good for bleeding any air out of the circuit.

Hydraulic orifices for backhoe stowing and deployment. I finally found these buggers. They are in the angle fittings on the hydraulic cylinder. Original size is .031". I opened them up to 1/16" (smallest drill I had). Now, the backhoe deploys and stows within seconds rather than taking painful...

FluFarm remembered correctly. Rear pump is 26gpm@2450psi and the tool circuit is fed by the front pump, which delivers 8gpm@2450psi (from TM 5-2420-224-20-1 UNIT MAINTENANCE MANUAL)

***double post***

I will take the hoses off at both ends tomorrow and report my findings. The slow tilt is really annoying.

The manual does not show any orifice in that circuit. The noise you hear is from the over-pressure relief in the valve. I think the restriction are the hoses between valve and tilt cylinder, which are considerably smaller than all other hydraulic hoses on the FLU419.
