Excellent series of videos. Just picked up a pretty rough one of these for practically nothing and these videos have improved my knowledge of the machine 1000 %.
I have an old 343 that seems to be build very similar like this one, with my bobcat the right hand drive forward doesnt work. I’ll learn a lot from this series!
The small lever should operate a hydraulic actuator that adjusts the belt pulley to increase or decrease the speed the machine will go. One of the main belt pulleys looks like a clutch pulley on a go kart or chainsaw except your operating it with the lever. Push and hold the lever forward and the machine will go faster. All the way back and it will go slower and climb better
I have the same machine but it’s a m600, I don’t have any leaks but My lift and tilt won’t work at full idle or regular idle, when I push any of the pelts it doesn’t change anything and the lines don’t fell like they are flowing and it doesn’t change the rpm or sound like it trying to do anything, I have some kind of bypass by the variable speed lever also I don’t know what it does but has no effect on or off. If you know or have a idea it would be much appreciated. Just looking to get pointed in the right direction
Do you have any recommendations on how to get the hydraulic canister off? Mine is not coming off, someone put the Schwarzenegger on it. Or it’s just corroded on.....what material is the canister? I’d like to put some heat on it.
So i got one too and i cant figure out how to swift the drive belt? Do u have a vide that has it in there? Or could point me in the right direction of how to switch it
I don't have a video doing that repair, but I could look over the manual and make a short video to point you in the right direction. Or email you photos of the manual
Thanks bud, ive had mine for just a few months, its in great condition just needs alittle love. Im also looking for a lever or rod, that accelerates carb someone put a wire and it bends when pulling accelerator lever and when driving or working on other tasks vibrations cause the wire to straighten and accelerates like crazy!!😫any idea where i could find this part?Thanks for the response, greatly appreciated. God bless
I haven't done much searching online for parts for these. Check a site called "yesterday's tractors " they have a lot of different parts for many older machines. Other than that I try and look at tractor salvage yards. But also sometimes you may just have to make something that works better
Is it possible to get some 1/8 or 1/4 in threaded stock and make one . I have a 610 that I am rebuilding , haven't got to the carb and gov rigging yet .
Loved mine til I let a buddy borrow it and he threw a rod.Wouldn't even pay to fix it!Trying to decide if I wanna rebuild or just install a 23hp Predator....UPDATE:Anyone know the original block #?I can't find mine.I "think" it's VF4D,maybe VH4D?I need to find a replacement :-(
The middle petal works the auxiliary hydraulics....like a power post hole digger. Thanks for putting out the video.

Just bought a 610 happy to find your videos. I have a lifted diesel truck I will try not to ask to many questions.
No worries. I put the videos up to help. I don't mind answering questions. Can't guaranty I will know all the answers though
@@prodieselrepair3218 whats the small lever on the left side for?

@@kd-rw6bg I just put a comment somewhere explaining what that lever does. It changes the speed of the machine
The middle pedal is the auxiliary hydraulics
Middle one is for Aux hydraulic control.

Do you know what the lever behind the left steering lever is?
That lever changes the speed.
