Man you really have become one of my favorite UA-camrs. I have a bunch of old equipment as well that I use on my farm and am constantly working on them. It’s nice to get a different perspective on how other people do things and learn some new tricks along the way. You’re a really great commentator while you work as well. Love it man, keep em coming!
Right after you shut the machine off, pull on a lever and if there is a bit of a jump, your accumulator has some charge still in it. Mine still has a bit of life and it's at least 45 years old. Thanks for finally answering my question about the transmission oil. I've always opted to measure while running, but could never find a definitive answer is any of the books I have. I opted for an electronic tach, I had to open up the alternator to pick up a phase and avoid messing with the cable. It's not perfect, but close enough. You don't want to pull the engine, it's a MAJOR job and being an outdoor mechanic like yourself, I lot a good amount of hair. The first time I brought mine home, I used it for an hour before I pulled the engine to replace the crank seal. Got about 4 hours out of it after that before I redid a bunch of the low pressure oil lines. Ran for probably 10 before I pulled the reverser and fixed it. Fixed a bunch of other things in the process. Now I can put the key in and dig, so I guess it was worth it, considering how old it is.
Man you have been through it all with your machine! I have no pressure after I shut her down. I assume the charge is gone in the accumulator. I might look into recharging but it operates okay as is.
surplus center has premade hydraulic hoses in stock along with seats for equipment. I did the loader hoses on my old model c Dynahoe and it wasn't that expensive.
Hey ! great to tag along as you fix up this JD410. I just spent $280.00 for 2 longer hoses on my hoe (ouch!); so Ican tell you have invested some coin for all those 31 hoses and the time to change all of them. I find if a tire is meant to be tubeless keep it that way if you can. Since your machine has the extendo-hoe a thumb will be tricky; suggestion for that is :Wain Roy Jaw Bucket. You the man! -cheers
Thanks! I’ve been looking for a jaw bucket. Hard to find and pricy but man they look handy. I have an idea on how to build a real main pin thumb that follows the bucket but it’s going to be a job. Should be interesting to try
Really like the channel man I own a 86 case backhoe myself but man from experience if you got a big job you can rent a small mini x for 250$ a weekend and get so much more done in the time you have
I agree a mini would be much faster. Part of my worry is the remoteness of the property I’m working on. Delivery and pickup is a problem if I can even get a company out here to deliver one. If I can get a few years out of this backhoe I think I can justify my own excavator. Fingers crossed
I am working on a 410 myself. where did you find the seat I have mine out of the machine rebuilding the swivel. I do need a new seat, the ks. Don Indiana
Loosen the handle nut for the hoe sticks and you can change the position of the handles temporarily until you put new pins in. There adjustable. Nice work as usual. Wish my 410 was an extenda hoe, would be easier to clean up around the bank of my lake...
That’s a great idea thanks for that! Yeah the extebdahoe was a big part of why I bought this one. Working on the mountain the extra reach will be nice to cleanup my trails.
@spankranchgarage No problem. Used mine to clear a forested lot to build my pole barn. Come spring it will be used for trail building and pond dam repairs!
Going through the same thing on my JD 500C backhoe and I’m already at 75% of the hoses and at about $850. Where did you get that seat, I need another one as well?
The answer is NO it's a pile of crap farm tractor they turned into a backhoe. It was gutless, poor design, poor transmission, poor hydraulics, engines were crap
@spankranchgarage hope it's not too extensive, or it will be expensive. Had a 410 for about a month, it was horrible, but I had run real TLB to compare with
I don’t have much TLB experience outside of a case 590 and this. The lack of a torque converter sucks but otherwise I don’t notice too much of a difference. The rear axle housings are def farm tractor and look smaller than case, but I doubt I’ll ever break them. What kind of differences do you see?
@spankranchgarage The engine is gutless. No torque converter Tractor transmission too complicated for a TLB The hydraulics are slow and with that dog of an engine not very powerful when it came to a challenge. Borrowed a 510, which was better but still the same problems just a bigger unit. Eventually bought an Allis Chalmers 715C which lacks some of the creature comforts of a newer 580, but it's crazy powerful, almost too much so. It's the first backhoe I ever used that is impossible to anchor while digging, the hoe will drag the tractor

How is there no comment on the morning doozer here.. A lot of great ideas stem from the porcelain thrown!
Good question! It’s my favorite time to read technical documentation

Adjustable wrench for the win! Nice video
Great video as always, thanks brother. Keeping us entertained and teaching at the same time.
Thanks. Always trying to find a balance between talking and doing
@ your doing an awesome job buddy, keep it up.

I loved my tonka toys when I was a kid too! Good stuff 👌
Awesome video!

4wd makes a hell of a difference when it comes to usen the loader
Yeah more front weight would be great
First backhoe I ever ran good hoe back in the day.
Nice work on the repairs, replacing those hoses is money well spent :) When do you plan on taking it to your cabin?
Thanks! Maybe February I’ll have it to a point where she’s ready to live in the wilderness
The time you get thru with it it's going to be new again
Your videos are killer man you do such a great job! Need an Andrew fable electric grease gun throw. How many tubes of grease did you use???
Every time I pick that thing up I wonder if it will crap out and I will be throwing it. This machine takes like a tube and a half to grease
I am working on a 410 myself. where did you find the seat I have mine out of the machine rebuilding the swivel. I do need a new seat, the ks. Don Indiana
Hey Don. I got it from Vevor for 125 dollars delivered. Fits okay and is comfortable enough
Loosen the handle nut for the hoe sticks and you can change the position of the handles temporarily until you put new pins in. There adjustable.

It’s from Vevor. 125 bucks shipped. Yeah I’m expecting about 1200 in hoses when this is all said and done
Good video man
Thanks for the visit
Oh yes oh yes
If you would use some tire grease, or some Very soapy water will allow those tires so much easier. Save some GRUNT work. 😁😁😁
I did put tire lube on them but it’s not super visable in the video. More lube is better!
I recently paid $105 for a 2' hose!
Ouch! But I’m not suprised I noticed they get pricy as diameter goes up. 3/4 hose was about 75% more expensive than 1/2 in the same length
Use some soap man
The answer is NO it's a pile of crap farm tractor they turned into a backhoe.

Maybe. But I think for the work I have lined up it’s going to do the trick
