    Hanmey Parts Suppliers - Suggestions Please

    Anybody know where there is a parts supplier for Hanmey Backhoes please? They're very similar to the LW7, another well-known Chinese brand, and that would probably do. I need a new pressure relief valve. An O-ring went on my old one and the resulting pressure squashed the piston. Since I...

    Hanmey Backhoe Boom Lift Problem - Suggestions please!

    I've got a Hanmey Backhoe (BHUS-225, PTO driven) that's lost lifting power in the boom and would very much appreciate some advice please. I've done all the usual things - changed the oil, left the boom hanging (it did), checked the O-rings on the spool (no leaks). To confirm, I'm talking...

    Is there a way to get a first fix on the water level in a tractor's tires?

    If you were checking LPG/propane gas bottles, you'd probably start by dinging them to hear if they're empty. I've heard there's a better way by using the condensation on the outside although not sure of the details. Well, I just thought I'd ask if anybody knows of a parallel trick for getting...

    Jumping out of B range

    My Branson 6530R has now done just over 1,000 hrs and has run pretty well to date. However, I've now hit a problem and would appreciate some advice please. Recently, it's taken to sometimes jumping out of B range, more likely if it's pulling something (either forward or back). It may be my...

    Blinking Thermostat Pilot Lamp!

    No, I'm not yelling ... It's just that the thermostat pilot lamp on my Branson 6530 has started to flash after I've been driving it for an hour or so. I don't think it's weather related - it's between about 8C and 18C most days now (in Oz). The manual says it should light up in cold weather...

    Advice Please on a Branson 6530R

    Just a couple of questions I'm hoping somebody might be able to answer please ... 1. On the dashboard, in the LCD screen showing hours, to the left of the hours there's a flashing icon - could be an hourglass. (See attached photo). I don't think it's always been there, at least I haven't...

    How d'ya get the handles off a Branson 6530R's control levers?

    I need to remove the handles from the control levers on my 6530R ( - that's R for ROPS, not C for Cab) so that I can slide the control panels off and fix a few things underneath. (Picture of control panel attached). The parts catalogue shows a couple of pieces on the end of the levers but not...

    Buying Advice  Branson Parts Availability in Australia

    I'm thinking of buying a used Branson 6530R. The tractor and FEL look fine, in fact very good. But I've seen a few comments about the difficulty of getting parts in Australia. It's not certain the current Branson distributor here will service machinery not bought from them. I did check US...
