    That was kinda awesome, I called it out right before you said it, a decade for the fuel filter! thanks for the chuckle

    No ECM, no DEF or emissions BS to worry about. Throw an eBay turbo on it!
    Very nice find. Give it some TLC.

    Just because a drill has a haul ass speed don't mean to use it in every case.. drill bits will cut better and last longer at a low speed. Yes it takes a bit longer, but it will save on bits. Also when drilling a large hole, use a center punch to mark your drilling spot and use a smaller bit to create a pilot hole, then use the larger bit. This will eliminate walking and make a more precise hole.

    The hydraulic filter is washable so u can clean it up n put it back ....just a note there's a small lever beside the seat on the left side if u pull it back it should slow it down for forward and reverse...I've got 1 it works good u won't stop the oil from going milky unless u change out all the hydraulic cylinders that's how most of it gets in the water and also if u run it through lots of water it gets in through the axle shafts ...good luck

    Great vid. I agree that you should not be between a rock and a hard spot. To install hoe, get close and park it. Get out hook up the hydraulics to the hoe and use the hoe to lift and position its self in place. You should be able to stand clear while you do so. Or at least have an exit path. That is the way I install and remove a full size hoe on a back hoe to change hoses etc. Great buy really, if your handy. Do not worry about the rust on the arm cylinders, if they are all the way down and the rust is outside the cylinder it will not matter. The Wisconsin motors are actually very good motors, had a few of them. Tune it up, points and check valve clearance etc. This should be a fun machine for you. Lots to be said for the older stuff. God bless

    Very good content. I have an Bobcat 553 with a backhoe to be mounted. Needs to be painted as well. I go for the white/orange Bobcat combination. Mine is from 2004, yours a bit older, did you already found the type? Belt driven in stead of drive-motors like mine?

    • @rustyassets
      @rustyassets  Рік тому

      Yeah, it's a belt driven 610. Thanks for the comment!

    In most cases the backhoe attachment mounts to the bucket attachment plate. then you use the hydraulics to mount the hooks to the backhoe.

    Watching them load the skid steer on that trailer was painful. I have a similar car hauler flatbed, and I installed two of those weld on removable trailer jacks to keep the trailer from tipping just like the trailer did here. He's lucky he wasn't on a hill, that skid loader could've caused the rear end of the truck to lift up and start moving. Not good.

      The trailer didn't "tip". The tractor wheels were getting stuck in the ramps and made it hard to drive it straight

    hook your hoses up first!! on backhoe,, and use backhoe too move it where you need it. your doing hard way.

    • @rustyassets
      @rustyassets  Рік тому

      some of the hoses are blown/broken. That won't work with replacing them first.
