    Done Playing, Whats It Worth?

    So I've done everything I need to do personally with it and find the machine sitting around too much so it's time to sell. I'm looking for what it would be worth to a consumer in the business or getting into the business and not what a book or cat says. It has about 1700 hours on the clock and...

    Paul Harvey's Wisdom

    If I were the Devil . . . I mean, if I were the Prince of Darkness, I would of course, want to engulf the whole earth in darkness. I would have a third of its real estate and four-fifths of its population, but I would not be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree, so I should set...

    Barko 937

    I get to play on a Barko 937 this wekend. Thought I might use my ski cam and get some video. It just had the engine replaced and Deere wants them to run it locally for a bit to make sure there are no bugs. Should be fun.

    Hidden Objects

    Last night we replaced all the chipper teeth on our head for todays job. Right out of the box we hit an engine block hidden under some brush. Took out four teeth on a quick $600 job.

    Hydraulic Chatter Deere 5083e

    With only 350hrs on the clock the hydraulic system has become sluggish and developed a chatter when using the mid and rear svc, and three pt. No problems with the steering. It all started when I broke one of the large metal lines that run to the mids and dumped almost all the oil. Replaced...

    Bleed Hydraulics???

    I broke a hydraulic line and lost most of the fluid. After the repair and oil replacement the loader cycles very slow. Never had a problem before or thought it needed to be done, but if so, how?

    Eagle Claw Tooth

    Anybody know anything about Eagle Claw Tooth? First, do you have any knowledge about their chipper tooth performance and longevity and second are they still in business? The website is unavailable and they won't answer the phone. I seem to be limited on tooth options for my magnum mulcher, so...

    THE JOYS OF GOOD AC

    This CAT we have has been a good solid machine, but less than enjoyable with poorly engineered ac design. After removing the condenser 5 or more times to clean it and having to recharge the ac system each time our troubles for the moment seem to be over. We had a roof mount condenser with...

    She's Home

    OOps, It's been in low flow

    I'm new to the buisness and at the spur of the moment found a machine and bought it. After running it for three weeks it seemed to do fine, but not great. Having never run one before I figured it was par for the course. Did some cleaning work on it this weekend by lifting the cab and dropping...
