Andris, that lever according to JapanMachineryParts is the control for the PTO. I’m pretty sure you’ll find that thread on that nipple is NPT,it’s tapered so that as you tighten it, it will seal itself, no thread tape required to prevent tape getting into the system and blocking control ports. I really appreciate a man who looks after his machinery and you do that very well mate, the new paint job was the icing on the cake. Another splendid video Andris, heaps of content, wit and the commentary was great, as always. Take care mate
I love your ingenuity to make your fixes and upgrades on a budget that we can all relate to. Well done Andris. I think this project deserves a “Super Mom” seal of approval.
Hi Andris. Your personality and your whole being is an absolute credit to you, you look at every job logically a fix it accordingly. And you mange to do it all by yourself, I love watching you work. It gives me hope, I retired many years ago. Now I can’t physically do much, but seeing how you work is a great tonic. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Never stop doing what you do, you’re more than just a video. The Yanmar looked fantastic after the paint job and the stickers. She looks brand new. Keep up the good work ✅
Found your channel only last week thank youtube algorithm not. Enjoying your videos, your funny, don't pretend to know everything and keen to learn. Loving the dry sense of humor. Keep it up.
Andris, how in the world do you make working on a Yanmar look interesting?! 2 1/2 hours of you doing your repairs was a real bonus! Do that anytime you want to. Have a great weekend, take care
I don't know why I love to watch your videos. Maybe I have my father's mechanic genes. I really enjoy watching you figure things out. You definitely have a wealth of knowlege about almost everything!
Good job! At 2:06:20 To remove tools from the tail stock, crank the handle to retract it fully. It will push the tool out for you. They are a friction fit with the taper. And the flat on the end is to keep the drill chuck or the taper adapters from spinning in the tail stock.
2:24 As always, Andris has made every effort to present us with the best and most authentic sound effects 🤣👌 two and a half hours of the finest content 😘
Yine shirli dokunuşlar yaptın.İnan bana, Camarata senin kadar becerikli değil.Hemen yenisini söylüyor ve geliyor... Sen ise yaratıyorsun ve yaşatıyorsun.
Someone may have already said this, but that rotary valve under the left side of the seat with all the hydraulic lines changes the control pattern. Most likely between ISO and SAE patterns. Different patterns change what functions control lever movements activate.
My girl always says I can watch you vid every saturday morning before we do some cleaning together.. Let's just say I was not much of a help today!! Kudos my man!
I just clicked on the video without looking at the length. Its now 03:31 am in the Faroe Islands 🙂Fantastic stuff, I wish I had your energy. I have a small workshop in the basement of our house. I have some basic tools for mainly woodworking. So I´m down there pretending to be Antspants. You motivate me to try to do more, being more productive.
hello the big valve on the left with several hydraulic pipes is for inferring the controls from left to right and vice versa and the lever on the left like a parking brake is a brake for the swing
Fabrication work my friend, cool Andris! I always enjoy watching you repairing your equipment and love your new modifications and additions in your workshop! I think your table will hold anything my friend!
Great job Antz. Yes I like the blue and black, but those red cylinders make it pop. And stickers make it even better. You have transformed the old girl. 👏
I believe tat steel is Hardox. The left lever at the back is the PTO selector lever. The pedal to the left is a 2 speed pedal. The lower lever under left consol could be to widening the tracks if its equiped with that option.
Thanks Ants for a great two and a half hour of entertainment 👍 your Yanmar looks super chic, love the black panels with the dark and light blue - the only suggestion I would make it to use more of the dark blue. For the grease fittings I would go for your idea of the thick angled metal below the fittings. Your work on the cylinder was amazing, great to see you experimenting with the lathe. Best wishes to you and your family 🌿🌿🌿
Well, look here Ant Van GoANT detailing the Yanmar. Inspector SuperMom making sure you were not slacking on the job and not setting things on fire! Hey, at least you made the Chinese Crap look better! Man, that lathe was a game changer! Great job!
Regarding the roller zerks, I would weld a 1 to 1.5 inch open pipe around the zerks. They will get jammed with dirt but will be protected from grinding them off. When it is time to grease the rollers just pull out the pressure washer to clean the zerks off.
I love the color combo and decals. I have a Japanese motorcycle t-shirt in the same blue with printing that looks a lot like the excavator. If I ever go back to Japan I’ll get you one 😊
Great job and that fitting is tapered pipe thread and use thread tape as sealant, cut off a small piece of threaded black iron pipe and use a screw on pipe plug to cover those grease fittings just put antisieze on the threads
I do like these longer videos, whatever the project, they are always interesting. Even though sometimes I haven’t a clue what you are doing. Thank you so much for making my day.
I love your videos as much as I love diesel creek and Camarata. More in some regards. Your smaller shop is something I can personally relate to. As much as Id love a giant shipping container castle shop, or a sweet shop with heated floors... I am more familiar with staying busy to stay warm
For your track roller pin zerk fitting problem, could you weld a round pipe, similar to what you had. Just thread on some pipe caps on the ends. When it's time to lube them, unscrew the cap, service, and screw the cap back on.
Thank you once again for this beautiful moment and everything you do, really fun and very interesting, thank again for sharing, have a nice week end 👍👍👍👍
Wow, beautiful work, it looks really nice, the decals finished it off, the colors are so good! No CEE this weekend but Ants and Farmcraft gave us plenty!!!
Hi Andris, tapred thread is correct ,the more you tighten the better it should seal if threads are ok. maybe try some teflon tape on threads. 4.76mm is same as 3/16 inch imperial. The logo on pedal looks like a hydraulic drill that fits to the boom. The bucket is easily fixed you know how, don't be silly hahaha, Many thanks for the entertainment, from UK.
Some of the best work and entertainment on YT. You deserve at least 10 times more subscribers. Enjoyed every minute and it's good that Super Mom checks up on you too. No telling what fix you might find yourself in that she will have to get you out of. Greetings from Houston.
1:40:30 A short piece of pipe cut open - shaped like the letter U and welded on with the open end down would protect the grease fitting and allow easy cleanout.
Good morning Ants Pants, I heard you talking about problems with drilling through hardened steel. Let me tell you what works for me perfectly. I take a drillbit, that is ment to drill through stone or concrete. I sharpen the braised tip as drillbits you use for mild steel. Then these concrete bits drill through hardened steel as a hot knife through butter. Be sure that you use a slow drillingspeed and enough cooling. The tip of a stone drill is the same material as that, what you braise on bits using to cut steel on a lathe.
2:11:40 some materials also work-harden when you go too slow. Going slow causes less chips to take the heat away, and a material can harder itself that way. Going for bigger chips keeps the material colder.
For the roller to protect the grease fittings: I would use the same pipe, but shorter pieces, maximum 1-3mm longer than the fitting, maybe even flush with the tip of the fitting. Less room for dirt, and due to less stickout smaller risk of getting ripped of, since you get less force on the shorter pieces. Leaving them blank could result in loosing them much faster.
Hey Andris, Mick here. What you call teeth on the bucket are actually the anchors for the teeth. You need new anchors and teeth that slide over the anchors.
there may be hardened teeth that slip and lock onto those bucket tooth stubs (common approach), the tapered thread is pipe thread (use teflon seal to wrap the thread), 4.5 mm drill bit is 3/16" diameter (freedom units), you can try to make a triangle bracket to move the top of the thumb cylinder out and back and use the cool new lathe to make bushings to tighten up the thumb joints, and back the tailstock on the lathe inside all the way then a pin inside will eject the morse taper tooling. so many options, so little time.
If you bend some 6mm polycarbonate sheet to wrap around the roof, it should add enough strength to make the roof roll over protection as well. Just bolt in in the outside of the metal bars to stop the roof folding sideways.
The new fitting is likely a NPT (National Pipe Tapered) fitting or a BSPT (British Standard Pipe Tapered) or vise versa. But if the old male to male fitting is Parallel its likely an "Inverted Flare" fitting of some type. It could be JIS ( Japanese Industrial Standard) "30° Male Inverted Seat" which are interchangeable with BSPP (British Standard Pipe Paralell) connections. There seems to be a concave bevel on the face of the male fitting on the ID. If you look into the female fitting on the boom and there looks like a convex seat or like the tubing/ferrule end on a compression fitting (the nut side) its likely an inverted flare or BSPP/JIS Female. If that IS NOT the case then I would say it might be a JIS Tapered/BSP Tapered thread. It could also be "NPSM (National Pipe Straight Mechanical) " which would explain the 30° seat and straight threads on the old male fitting, and the fact that the new fitting will thread on but won't go in "all the way" and wont seal. But i doubt this. Both NPT and BSPT fittings seal on the threads (with use of pipe sealant) and are dimensionaly similar but not interchangeable., they have the same thread size but differnt pitches, they will thread together but not seal. Which would explain the leak you had... (This could also be lack of thread sealant) NPT (National Pipe Tapered) fittings will thread into BSPP and BSPT (and JIS T and JIS Inverted Seat) Fittings but wont seal properly, (even with pipe sealant). BSPT Fittings will thread into BSPP fitting and will seal with the aid of pipe sealant. Since its a Japanese machine the old male fitting MIGHT be a "JIS tapered" (aka BSPT) and the boom side female then is likely JIS Female Tapered (aka BSPT, aka British Standard Pipe Tapered) or a BSPP Female which will seal on the threads To a BSPT male without a gasket or oring (but with thread sealant) If the boom side is a BSPP female and the male fitting WAS a "BSPP Oring" (since your said the old male appeared parallel) and that oring has perished/been lost, but these are usually only present on swivel fittings .. if any of this was the case though it would likely leak, unless a LOT torque and pipe sealant/old paint (visible on the old fitting) somehow molded themselves enough to seal. But as i said if the old fittings male threads are parallel and there is no place for an oring, and the female fitting looks to be a CONVEX cone in it my guess would be be some sort of inverted flare fitting or more likely a JIS ( Japanese Industrial Standard) "30° Male Inverted Seat" or BSPP both of which has parallel thread connections and a fundamentally interchangeable.
@@audiquattro6768 Do that make JIC inverted flare?, The expected end of a JIC would be a male fitting with a CONVEX sealing surface.. where as both side are concave on this fitting. My guess is its an inverted flare type fitting (convex sealing surface on the female side), more specifically and most likely a "JIS 30° Inverted Seat" AKA BSPP.
Great work with the excavator! Use as short tool stick out as possible on those lathe tools. It will get rid of the chatter. You can remove tools from quill (tail stock) simply by turning the the quill (tail stock) handle a bit harder and tools should eject. Dont forget to hold them with hand or they will damage guideways. As allways a joy to watch - keep up!
Hi Ants. You can make jams (e.g plummer inch jams from OBI, or diy wood jams), for rollers grease point tubes and add reinforcing gussets to protect it.
Just wanted to make a suggestion. Buy yourself or build the crimper for crimping the hydraulic pipes, you can get them to fit on your hydraulic press. When you have a pipe bust the pipe work is normally fairly cheap its the hydraulic fittings that coost alot. I did this years ago and have save tons of money. Take your old pipe cut off the fitting and as long as they were not wot was leaking and knackered you either put them in the lathe and remove the crimped part which is literally just a piece of tube, once thats removed all thats left is a barbed fitting , you then weld on a new piece of tube which needs to be the same internal measurement so you won't have problems sliding the new rubber tube back on then re-crimp your fitting and boom done. Obviously between cutting the old crimp off clean up the overal fitting with a wire brush. My crimper cost me £165 which was 5 years ago and it paid for itself affter replacing 3 pipes as you can also use old pipe as alot of the time a bust pipe is caused by rubbing and the rest of the pipe especially if its inside the machine is like new. I've not had 1 of my remade pipes with old fitting bust. It honestly works I only use my machines on a farm or doing friends favours it saves you loads of money and you dont lose days cause of down time etc takes about an hour if that once you know wot your doing .
I believe the drill bit size you wanted was a 3/16".. might have been an imperial fitting. Japan has some weird size fittings.. I've had lots of trouble finding grease zerks for my Yanmar vio80 MADE IN 2011! Been looking for over a year and order many many different sets of grease fittings and haven't found any that fit yet. I understand you frustrations! Thanks for the great video.
According to some parts books I have as pdf-files, the lever behind the red one is a P.T.O Control. Do let me know if you want the parts books. It's for a Yanmar B22 and a Yanmar B22-2. Great videos :) Keep em coming. Greetings from Norway :)
I think that the thing with many hydraulic lines is to change the pattern of control usage. Since you are accustomed to the controls as they are now, to change it would be unnecessary.
Most lathes have an extractor in the tailstoc wind all the way back , then give the hand a cople of quick snaps back by hand against the screw limit , if the part in the taper has a tang it will pop out . If out wind fourd and expose the hole in the side of the shaft, you then need a tapered wedge to remove the drill or centre
Bro, taper on hydraulic fitting is pipe thread (supposed to get tighter as it’s screwed in). Lever at the back left is your warp drive (when you want to exceed C on your PTO). Search in your Japanese owner’s manual for “hidden grease zerks” to find all of them (I hate when they do that). Definitely take those buckets to a good Estonian dental tech for some new dentures (teeth are normal wear maintenance items, plus your machine will then be able to consume solid food again!)
Another great video, Andris. Some great fixes. Is that lever that does nothing a slew lock. To lock the machine from slewing or turning independently from the undercarriage
Could be? it was not hooked up to anything though, or it was rusted away, i have not been able to get a service manual for this unit and the parts catalog does not say anything about that thing.
Place the hand drill on the left side of your body so as it wants to spin the whole drill to the right your body is up against the drill and helping keep it from spinning out of your hands. Be careful because it can still spin out of control.
@@Ants_Pants the reason why is cause hydraulics have very small ports and if a little peice gets in the system it will cause issues, instead use a hydraulic thread sealant
I would bet that unknown control by the seat is to reverse the hydraulic controls, south hemisphere versus north. I mean, you be filling in the hole when you actually meant to dig it. 🙂 To get the live center out of the tail stock, I think you wind it in all the way, then the insert should pop out.
Andris, that lever according to JapanMachineryParts is the control for the PTO. I’m pretty sure you’ll find that thread on that nipple is NPT,it’s tapered so that as you tighten it, it will seal itself, no thread tape required to prevent tape getting into the system and blocking control ports.

Good morning Ants Pants, I heard you talking about problems with drilling through hardened steel. Let me tell you what works for me perfectly. I take a drillbit, that is ment to drill through stone or concrete. I sharpen the braised tip as drillbits you use for mild steel. Then these concrete bits drill through hardened steel as a hot knife through butter. Be sure that you use a slow drillingspeed and enough cooling. The tip of a stone drill is the same material as that, what you braise on bits using to cut steel on a lathe.
Yeah their carbide.
2:11:40 some materials also work-harden when you go too slow.
Going slow causes less chips to take the heat away, and a material can harder itself that way. Going for bigger chips keeps the material colder.
Ohh thats a useful tip
Hey bro, the excavator looks amazing, and that was some smooth fabrication on the track tensioner. Have a great weekend buddy ✌
Thanks 👍
For the roller to protect the grease fittings: I would use the same pipe, but shorter pieces, maximum 1-3mm longer than the fitting, maybe even flush with the tip of the fitting. Less room for dirt, and due to less stickout smaller risk of getting ripped of, since you get less force on the shorter pieces. Leaving them blank could result in loosing them much faster.
"One guy is crushed and another guy is going to party". Hahaha. That cracked me up. 😂 Great video

You can remove tools from quill (tail stock) simply by turning the the quill (tail stock) handle a bit harder and tools should eject. Dont forget to hold them with hand or they will damage guideways. As allways a joy to watch - keep up!
Thanks for the tip!
New wear flat bars on the bottom outside of the bucket would help from extra wear also!
Hi Ants. You can make jams (e.g plummer inch jams from OBI, or diy wood jams), for rollers grease point tubes and add reinforcing gussets to protect it.
Just wanted to make a suggestion. Buy yourself or build the crimper for crimping the hydraulic pipes, you can get them to fit on your hydraulic press. When you have a pipe bust the pipe work is normally fairly cheap its the hydraulic fittings that coost alot. I did this years ago and have save tons of money. Take your old pipe cut off the fitting and as long as they were not wot was leaking and knackered you either put them in the lathe and remove the crimped part which is literally just a piece of tube, once thats removed all thats left is a barbed fitting , you then weld on a new piece of tube which needs to be the same internal measurement so you won't have problems sliding the new rubber tube back on then re-crimp your fitting and boom done. Obviously between cutting the old crimp off clean up the overal fitting with a wire brush. My crimper cost me £165 which was 5 years ago and it paid for itself affter replacing 3 pipes as you can also use old pipe as alot of the time a bust pipe is caused by rubbing and the rest of the pipe especially if its inside the machine is like new. I've not had 1 of my remade pipes with old fitting bust. It honestly works I only use my machines on a farm or doing friends favours it saves you loads of money and you dont lose days cause of down time etc takes about an hour if that once you know wot your doing .
cool idea, i need to look into this
I believe the drill bit size you wanted was a 3/16".. might have been an imperial fitting. Japan has some weird size fittings.. I've had lots of trouble finding grease zerks for my Yanmar vio80 MADE IN 2011! Been looking for over a year and order many many different sets of grease fittings and haven't found any that fit yet. I understand you frustrations! Thanks for the great video.
Thanks for sharing
According to some parts books I have as pdf-files, the lever behind the red one is a P.T.O Control. Do let me know if you want the parts books. It's for a Yanmar B22 and a Yanmar B22-2. Great videos :) Keep em coming. Greetings from Norway :)
I ment B27-2.
Yeah i have that one. What does PTO control do though? :D
I love your paint colors,,,from Florida have a great week .
thanks
1:29 you can buy a piece of seamless pipe, turn the outside to bucket, inside to pin, hammer them in place and weld them in place
hmm could work yeah
Fantastic transformation .
I think that the thing with many hydraulic lines is to change the pattern of control usage. Since you are accustomed to the controls as they are now, to change it would be unnecessary.
I agree.
Love the video definitely some new teeth and some where strips for the bucket would last for ever then !
Keep up the good work mate ! 😊😊
Black pipe threads start out narrow and they get wider, this helps them seal.
Looks Great! The hydraulic thumb will be an awesome addition. You definitely need a longer cylinder though. Long video but awesome. 👍😎👍
Great point!
New teeth for that bucket will make a world of difference, and they shouldn't be too expensive. Definitely worth the $ in my opinion.
I'm not sure I'd bother with the bolts tho. Just weld new teeth right to the bucket. Most are anyway.
@@rbhe357 agreed, or take a chunk of dozer cutting edge and weld that on
@@rbhe357I agree with that, new teeth welded on would work!
What that guy said.
I think you mean £
In the future I'd suggest to use some rust converter, it's worth it for the price and stop the rust from spreading further
ok
That lever may change the pattern for the controls, so you assign different control patterns. Wow she looks almost new!
@ Andrew camarata did a breakdown of his yanmar a few years ago he explains the pedal and levera I think
yup, pattern changer, no need to touch it.
Fantastic Work! Looks like brand new 👏😁
Thanks! 👍
That lever by the seat is for the ejection seat. One time use..
HAHA :D the parts catalog says it's "PTO CONTROL" what ever that means :D
Most lathes have an extractor in the tailstoc wind all the way back , then give the hand a cople of quick snaps back by hand against the screw limit , if the part in the taper has a tang it will pop out . If out wind fourd and expose the hole in the side of the shaft, you then need a tapered wedge to remove the drill or centre
yup i sorted that one out a bit later :D
Bro, taper on hydraulic fitting is pipe thread (supposed to get tighter as it’s screwed in). Lever at the back left is your warp drive (when you want to exceed C on your PTO). Search in your Japanese owner’s manual for “hidden grease zerks” to find all of them (I hate when they do that). Definitely take those buckets to a good Estonian dental tech for some new dentures (teeth are normal wear maintenance items, plus your machine will then be able to consume solid food again!)
gotcha
2" reciever hitch on the back of the bucket for moving trailers is what i believe you discarded on the bigger bucket and asked about
Excellent video. Love your long videos. Don't make them shorter.
Noted!
Hello from the Netherlands.
thanks for the video Andris 👍.
Kind regards, Hollandduck
Another great video, Andris. Some great fixes. Is that lever that does nothing a slew lock. To lock the machine from slewing or turning independently from the undercarriage
Could be? it was not hooked up to anything though, or it was rusted away, i have not been able to get a service manual for this unit and the parts catalog does not say anything about that thing.
@@Ants_Pants messaged you on Instagram with a parts manual and exploded diagrams. Austin
Watched the whole video in one piece and it was so entertaining that I didnt realise how long it was. Thx alot for it 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great job
It looks amazing 🎉
Dude, your videos always make my day.we watch you from a small farm near Heyworth, Illinois USA.👍👍🧡🛠
glad i could help DJ
Place the hand drill on the left side of your body so as it wants to spin the whole drill to the right your body is up against the drill and helping keep it from spinning out of your hands. Be careful because it can still spin out of control.
Watched to the end and you got my vote, good job all around. Very entertaining. Wish you lots of good health. All the best for the new year.
Thanks bud
Привет Антс, отличная работа молодец так держать удачи тебе и твоей семье.
❤
Tapered pipe thread requires Teflon thread tape and often a sealer to prevent leaks. The paint job looks great.
Never use Teflon tape on hydraulics
lol this topic is so weird, it's like 50/50, quick google says its okey
@@Ants_Pants the reason why is cause hydraulics have very small ports and if a little peice gets in the system it will cause issues, instead use a hydraulic thread sealant
I would bet that unknown control by the seat is to reverse the hydraulic controls, south hemisphere versus north. I mean, you be filling in the hole when you actually meant to dig it. 🙂
To get the live center out of the tail stock, I think you wind it in all the way, then the insert should pop out.
It's labeled as "PTO control" whatever that means lol. Yes you are correct about the tail stock
Your lathe skills are spot on. Great video.
41:10 that thing probably changes the control pattern from SAE to ISO.
yes. it is the pattern changer.
cool
I wish I could hit “like” 5,000x. Awesome work and your humor makes me look forward to your Friday videos!
Once is enough 😇
