  • My skid steer is leaking oil. That's what she does. So I tear into it and figure out what the problems are and fix them up. At least that's the plan...

    It is insane how much effort you put in these videos, besides work itself, camera work with multiple angles is top notch and editing like this 1,5hour video with voice overs must take forever. And big inspiration to anybody to work with things even if they don't excatly know what they are doing.

      By the way most videos reflect the state of the machines and how some TLC gets 'em tip top, I feel that the culture of work fast - no time for nothing really hurts everyone at the end of the day.
      In a sense, its cool to find cheap gems, but on the other many serviceable machines get "dumped" for no other apparent reason than no time to fix that.
      I know times money and "can't do it now" is a fact that troubles us all, but eventually there must be a bit of down time for maintenance.

    I just want to say thank you for the amount of effort you put in to these videos. It really shows. You can tell some RUclipsrs just film anything, slap it together and publish it. Not you. You take time with your camera angles, think things through. I work for a construction company in Southwest Florida and I operate a skid steer daily, part of my job is maintaining the equipment too. I'm not a mechanic but I'm handy. I have to improvise stuff like you do all the time. I could not imagine having thousands of people standing there watching me try to figure out something I've never done before and have no idea how to do. The fact that you include mistakes, you could easily edit out makes it even more genuine. I know how frustrating it is trying to chase down a oil leak in a machine, I couldn't imagine doing it on camera with thousands of people watching criticizing everything I do. Not just as you do it, but once you do it, You have it figured out. So the next time you do it you can take shortcuts and streamline your process. That video is up until you remove it, for people to criticize how you did something years ago potentially that you had no idea how to do. You could very easily go back once you have it figured out make a video of you doing everything right the first time, publish it and no one would know. You're honesty, and openness is refreshing. I appreciate the amount of effort you put in, lugging around camera gear has to add hours to your day. Figuring out shot angles, all well trying to do something that you've never done before. Sorry about the rambly post lol. But I really enjoy your videos and I just wanted to say thank you for the time you take, for our entertainment

    My Skid-steer PTSD was just triggered! Thanks Jon...
    My dad owned a rental yard, and we had a Hydra Mac 9C that burned one summer.
    A landscaper had rented it from us, and was using it to spread wood chips, many of which found their way into the belly of the beast. He spilled diesel fuel in there while refueling it one day. Nobody noticed that it had caught fire until well after he shut it down for the day, and had gone home.
    The damage wasn't bad enough to total the machine, so we decided to fix it. Taking it to the dealer to have it fixed wasn't going to be useful, as that was us...LOL
    We initially removed the engine and hydraulic system, replaced all the electrical wiring, starter, alternator and hoses. Any plastic or rubber parts got replaced. We sent the pumps and motors out to be resealed by the local hydraulic shop which had always done stellar work for us.
    Should have been a slam-dunk repair. But, no.... I chased oil leaks on that machine for months. I had much the same problems that you did with old Val there. I couldn't isolate the leak and where it was coming from for the longest time.
    It turned out that the hydraulic shop had missed a couple of O-rings in the pumps when they inspected and resealed them for us. To be fair, the overlooked O-rings were behind steel block off plates that were retained by snap rings and covered so thickly with paint by the factory, that you could not tell they were there.
    I still have nightmares...

    Jon, great video! Quick tip from the aviation world: When we route hoses and other tubes on aircraft engines that are close to contact with each other we'll put a heavy-duty zip tie around one hose loosely, then around the other hose looping through the zip tie on the first hose - then cinch both of them tight. This keeps the hoses separated so they don't rub together yet firmly in place so they don't vibrate at all. Might want to give that a try in the future 😊

    This makes me regret the sale even though it increased in price and I made good money.
    They are a really handy and safe machine to operate in my opinion. Safer than a tractor on steep hills that is.

    I’ve never binged an entire channel until last week, where I watched every episode. Great information and very entertaining. My wife cracks up with your seal jokes every time.
    Got introduced to your channel a few years ago with your how to tree cutting video and stayed for all the awesome info, awesome research you must put into every video. Your focus and attention to detail sets you apart in my opinion.

    Hello Jon,
    I have been a maintenance technician for over 20 years and lead a small maintenance team at a small company. I find your videos very interesting, and you explain things very well, very back to the basics. I also like to use your materials as training material. We have received some training from Parker, Indonorm, or Rexrotht, and what I noticed recently in your videos is that you must take care of your hoses. They are chafing against a fender, and I can assure you that they will break. If you already have the thing open, do something about it. It is definitely a bad idea to run hoses past edges and corners because, as you know, they move when they build up and release pressure, and they will chafe.
    Additionally, I just want to say I think your channel is really cool. I am currently watching one of your videos. You do a great job, and I find your error finding process fantastic. You are very knowledgeable about the subject.
    Greetings from a fellow maintenance man in Germany.

    Sees and click on a 1.5 hour video. First 30 seconds into the video @ 0:22 we'll get that fixed up real quick. Lol

    Clicking thumbs up once is hardly enough! Amazing persistence, skill and patience. If it was me I would have been continuously cursing and destroying things until finally giving up.

    Well.... at least THIS Val isn't so hard on the wildlife.... just you. And we can live with that because we get excellent content out of it... and a sense that this stuff DOESN'T only happen to us.... lol. Thanks for sharing this project with us - I always enjoy these projects mostly due to your tenacity.

    Retired machinists/repairman. On your adjusting plate for the forward, reverse selection, I’ve always found those -4- rollers to be cam rollers. They will roll against the -2- flat square stock , on either end. This prevents wear of the square stock
    Glad to see you were able to whip Val & her seals back into shape
    Nothing worse than a misbehaving seal

    Hello John, Winston from Australia. Growing up on a sheep farm, my dad had to fix everything himself mainly due to cost and where we lived. I learned a lot as a result and I continue to this day (49yo) doing a lot myself. Love your content cheers.

    Thanks Jon. Enjoyed your video. My only suggestion is how about a touch up yellow and black paint job for Val. Maybe she’ll thank you for the newfound look. 😊

    Blue paper towel is wonderful for spotting leaks, turns dark blue instantly you find fluid. It's always better when you get comfortable with a motor !

    Always looking forward to a new video Jon, and this one was a doozy. Several times I caught myself checking how far into the video I was, worried that it was nearing the end. Really enjoyed this one! Thanks for sharing another adventure with Val!
