@debozwi I hope that will work. I had degreased the bands and she still didn't want to turn. I have also noticed that the boom has a twist in it that I hadn't seen before... I hope it is a matter of the joint not being lined up properly when I put the bolts in... otherwise It might be an expensive rebuild. I have more footage of re-reeving the boom and I am yet to take a look at the steering and dig lock. So I will be on your case for advice again soon.
Thanks for these videos. I'm trying to figure out how to adjust my house rollers (conical rollers) on my 1953 22B. There too much gap between the roller and the frame. However, I don't see a way to adjust it. Is there something on the other side of the cap plate that allows me to do this? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Hi mate. I haven't had to adjust my rollers yet, but if you look closely there should be shims at the front. You take some of them out and that move the conical roller closer to the circle. The other thing is if you turn the shaft that the roller is on, I was told that they are oval shaped and can adjust the height. You will need a big pipe jaw spanner. Hope that helps. If I can I might try myself and film it. But that won't be for a while. Cheers Adrian. Let me know how you get on.
Hello, Fur Face and no blue hat? Are you changinbg your image or do digger drivers have to wear a different color hat? ? Just axing. You know the best thing for that rig is to RUN IT. Git it HOT. Then the clutches and brake bands will dry out and start holding. Been there myself too mny times. If they sit it'll have to be done and get the bands set even and not be slipping. Between the tropics and the heavy humidity it's a regular thing. So hope the train is paying the light bill and you're still out of jail.God Bless, you silly guy, you!
@@lewiemcneely9143 I need to get my blue hat dry cleaned , reshaped and repaired. Caps for mucking round in the grease and dirt, not to mention being able to wear earmuffs. I reckon if I can find someone to sell me some track pads it'll help as well. There's no adjustment because there's 2 missing, so she's tight on the pads, but loose on the propel chains. The spare bands I have don't fit, or at least not the propel and swing drums. So I cleaned and refitted the original bands. The direction lever hits the propel/swing selector so there is too much play in linkages and bell cranks downstairs too. It's too heavy trying to steer with it slipping... hope it will come good after getting them hot like you suggest.
@@adriannettlefold9084 10/4 on the blue hat. The P&H had a 7/16 bolt with a locknut. Set them with a feeler gauge but eyeballinbg them at the end but eth clutches were weak. They relined with brake lining and about knocked the bins down when they faded out. Ended up with the American and just ran it. Ford industrial flathead gas motor. Wore the gears out but the liquid asphalt made good crater. No more ringing. Spray brake clean on the bands but getting them hot will be best. Powdered rosin will make them bite too but people could get ran off for using it years ago, especially on shovel crowd clutches.. I'd go with the brake clean being a degreaser. It'll be tough digging in that rock. A heavy bucket might help but you'll get tippy with the long boom but it's all a tradeoff. That's a nice rig though. So remain calm and keep the cash flow going. Got to go mow and grind the downed leaves. BLESS you, Palley!
@nealblackburn8628 hey do you have time to do some rebushing if I bring some bits and pieces down in October? I need to take out the play in the steering etc..
Tudo bom australiano já lidei com dragline aqui no Brasil muito bom o seu trabalho
Interesting video mate. You can sometimes get the oil off the bands by just letting them slip for a while and let them heat up.
