    incredible how a machine could be subjected to so much water that the manifold disintegrates but still be in operating condition more or less. love the drag line machines man !!

    Good job Frank, the fuel mixture sounded a bit rich and then you had the afterburner kick in!😂

    Another great video. I’ve never loosened the release clutch for the steering on my 10B so the handle just goes round and round when I swing and I drain water out of the gear housing every year, never got around to addressing that issue. I thought I had a shovel front located for it but all there was was the front, all the components needed for in the machine were missing. I’ll be watching for the next one.👍

    • @73DiamondReo
      @73DiamondReo  9 месяцев назад

      You’re making me wonder if the steering is broken now. If that sprocket should spin when swinging the machine mine doesn’t that I’m aware of so that would mean the bevel gear or shaft is broken correct? I need to pull that cover under the drums anyway so I’ll have to investigate

      @@73DiamondReo Something has to be wrong. Do you have a parts book for it, as you know they can often be helpful with how things should work before disassembly. The man with the Link-Belt gave me a 10B parts book. At any rate, I’ll be watching.

    Haven’t got time to watch it now. In the Dominican Republic, my stepson and fiancé got married here yesterday and going out to eat now. I just jumped thru video, looks to be a good one 👍. Something for me to watch in a.m. when everyone is still sleeping.

      Not much left that’s stuck. Boom hoist pawl, and steering are all that’s left. I don’t care about getting the 2 speed working. I feel like leaving it frozen will stop anyone else from using it also
