    An addendum to the portal axles of the MOG: They multiply the torque of the system as well; well, the gears at the business ends do so anyway.

    I have a 89 SEE, my auxillary hydro system seems to not be functioning, i shift into the pto setting, then turn on the aux selector but the tools didnt seem to function.. Do they have any tests to troubleshoot the aux hydro system? The loader and backhoe works as they should. Thanks in advance!

    • @Cabin_Dad
      @Cabin_Dad  2 місяці тому

      The aux hydraulics are powered by the front engine driven pump. The issue is between your aux switch and the solenoids on the valve stack behind the cab.

    Ive had my 419 up to 60mph on flat ground. Took about a mile to get there.
    I got into a tricku situation with mine the other day. I was buldozing weeds from an area and there was a huge log stump hidde . I drove completely over it and it because lodged undeneath. I was stuck. So i used the backhoe to pick the nachine up and shift it over till i was free.
    Loved your video! 22:10

      Thanks so much for sharing. I just broke an axle so will be out of commission for a few days. I have spare parts unit - so I should be golden.
      Check this one out using the back how as a counter balance:

    We used our Cat D7 dozer to dig tank ditches and tank fighting positions. We used the S.E.E. truck for fox holes.

    • @Cabin_Dad
      @Cabin_Dad  5 місяців тому +2

      Dozers do a great job on the tank ditches and offensive pop ups. By far the best tool for it. In a pinch - use the SEE - but if you got it - Dozer is the way to go. Thanks for your service!

      They are made by Mitas. The size is a bit big and they rub. I’ll shoot a short to show you the issue - but I may have a solution.

    Thank you for this link. So, am I getting it right, the perfect tractor is a truck with portal axles and space to connect tools on the front and back. ... What is the unimog the only of it's kind so far? And what do you think about the Mercedes Zetros?
