    Harbor Freight Titanium 125 Flux Core Welder

    I've always been a stick welder and decided to try a wire feed welder. This 125/120v is an entry level piece and I'm getting the hang of it. I was hoping it would do spot welding on sheet metal but even at it's lowest amperage setting, it just blows right through. Is that the way it is or is...

    Greasing the backhoe

    I’ve got a LB1100 hoe. It’s almost impossible to get grease into the boom swing cylinder pivots. New zerks are in place. I’ve even tried removing the pins to investigate but they won’t budge. I’m able to move the rod end ever so slightly on the pin. I’ve tried putting the hoe in about every...

    G3033H owners questionnaire.

    I'm curious as to how many people on this site own one of these machines, gear driven and G3038's as well. If so, what year, how many hours and what repairs done, if any. I have owned my 2013 G3033H with 422 hours for almost 2 years and replaced all filters and the backhoe bucket curl hose.

    eBay Fuel Filter

    I bought a LS fuel filter #40006997 and received it. It's in a factory looking box. Are they typically wrapped in plastic film and is there an O-ring included for the water sensor?

    Metric or SAE

    I had a hose made up recently for my LB1100 hoe at my local NAPA store. The original hose had a pin hole leak in the hose itself. I've never seen a pin hole before. Always figured they just blew out or were fine. The new hose was almost $70.

    VIN history database

    Anyone know if there's a website to lookup your tractor's VIN to find out the original dealer/location, service records, etc.?

    What did you do on or to your LS Tractor today?

    Made these for the backhoe stabilizers. Steel was free so got about $10 invested. Nothing fancy but better than nothing.

    What did you do on or to your LS Tractor today?

    I installed a Titian thumb and a pair of hooks on the bucket. Two very handy upgrades.

    Checking for loaded tires?

    I don't know if my rear tires are filled. Do I just rotate the tire until the valve stem is at 6'oclock and back out the valve core a few turns?

    Greasing a LB1100 Backhoe

    No, a handheld heat gun. It's pretty powerful. I tried it before breaking out the torch.

    Greasing a LB1100 Backhoe

    Update!: I used a heavy duty heat gun and applied a lot of heat to the cylinder end that the pin goes through and finally got some grease to ooze out where it should.

    Greasing a LB1100 Backhoe

    I can't get grease into the swing cylinder pins. I've installed new zerk fittings. I decided to remove the pins from the swing frame assembly to look for a reason why they won't take grease. After removing the nut and bolt that holds the pin in place, I tapped on the pin expecting it to drop out...

    G3033H Grill Guard

    I followed your advise and worked with it on an anvil. That got it within an inch of where it needed to be. The left side upright was twisted forward that amount. I then bolted the guard frame upside down on the tractor and with a come-a-long hooked to the backhoe frame, pulled it back so it's...

    G3033H Grill Guard

    I screwed up today and bent the 3/8" thick steel piece that bolts to the front of the frame. Not sure if I can repair it. I've look for a replacement but can't find anything. Any ideas?

    Titan Weld on thumb installed

    Ordered one today. Looking forward to using it. I installed a bigger one on a machine that I've since sold. I thought it was a handy attachment that was well worth the money.

    Titan thumb on a LS hoe

    This tag is from my backhoe. I believe it to be from 2013. It has no attachment tab on the dipper. Your Titan thumb looks to be mounted quite a ways away from the bucket. Is that by choice? By using different bolt holes, would that allow the thumb to moved closer to the bucket? My dipper arm...

    Titan thumb on a LS hoe

    I'm checking to see if anyone has mounted one of Titan's bolt-on thumbs to a LS model LB 1100 backhoe. I've got some questions.

    LS backhoe factory thumb

    I have the same tractor and hoe as you. I want to install a bolt-on thumb. I measured the dipper arm and it's 3 3/8". Titan states theirs fits a 3.25". Have you actually installed their thumb on your hoe? I don't want to weld one on and not big on cutting theirs in half to widen it. Looking for...

    135 thermostat

    You've probably finished changing out your T-stat by now. I've got a somewhat similar tractor and replaced the T-stat last fall by releasing the two bolts on the front of the tank (which was nearly full) and supported it with some lumber pieces. It wasn't easy but it can be done.
