When I was a boy we checked the dozer track tension every morning because we needed to. These days it's about twice a year. What a difference SALT (Sealed And Lubricated Tracks) made.
I often replace the grease zerks on new machines for a few reasons. First, some manufacturers just use off-size fittings that will not seat properly. Deere batwing cutters are the worst I've found. (They are pressed in so require a pipe tap to replace.) Second, sometimes it's better to have a zerk at an angle such as 45 or 90 degrees for easier access. (The lift cylinders of my Cat D6 for example.) Third, sometimes I install a ridgid extension to better reach a recessed zerk when it's not exposed in a location where extra length adds risk of damage.
Such an easy and quick job and sometimes I find a final full of trash! I've saved up a dozen of those spigot tops, they work great as they fit regular oil bottles, fantastic for ATF and transaxles and you can jam a tube over it like a long funnel.
Good practice is to make sure the fill/level plug(s) will loosen BEFORE opening the drain plug. Especially so if your equipment has alloy caps with "O" rings instead of steel plugs. Don't want to be caught with emply finals and no good way to refill.
Tim, I have some concern, the first drive had a lot of sparkly metal flakes coming out and the second one did not have any. I can't tell you what is normal or to be expected, maybe you know or maybe send an email link to your dealer and ask them to watch the first 5 minutes of the video and see what they think of it.
Tim when was the last time the fluid in the front and rear end of the 5075E or your pickup truck front and rear diff's including the transfer case changed or checked?
Our kubota a17 3a leaking oil from the final drive cap itself and we do not have service for the kubota here do you know what that called. İt rotetes when we tried to losen the bolts for draining
The 540 trim saw is used only in the trees because the guys get out of the trucks at a job. They all grab the small saws and they just don't care. The trim saw would be unusable and the climbers would get mad all the time. So that is why
You would like the Lincoln 5845 grease hydraulic coupler for your grease guns when you push the trigger on your grease gun it locks on when you apply pressure and lets go when you let off the trigger.We’ve had great luck out of them for mining.
Did you do the giveaway last night Tim? Don't know if I missed a live feed, I didn't get a notification yesterday morning when you did that live stream, RUclips dropped the ball on that one my friend. 💪🌲🤙🌳
Advance Auto Parts brake cleaner... I would be ashamed. That’s lower than a snake’s belly in a wagon rut!!!😆😆😆 P.S. I’m not responsible for Napa Mike’s hurt feelings after this.
Yes sir Brent I’m with you I drove 8 hours to Bangor Maine to try to talk some sense into my little buddy I don’t think he’s listening to us I’d bet he doesn’t read our comments hahaha hell just have to change it again in halugh the time with that bottom of the barrel oil hahaha

Knees on cement - shiver - I can't do that anymore.
You guys believe in good maintenance, one of the secrets to success.
Thank you for sharing!
Maintenance is the key for longevity on any piece of equipment. Tim, Thanks for sharing!

Good vid Mr. Tim, what's your preference on grease
Great video Tim.

good info ,, what grease gun do you use ?
Tim when was the last time the fluid in the front and rear end of the 5075E or your pickup truck front and rear diff's including the transfer case changed or checked?
What size head was it for the plug
What did you spray on oil plug
Our kubota a17 3a leaking oil from the final drive cap itself and we do not have service for the kubota here do you know what that called. İt rotetes when we tried to losen the bolts for draining
Hello there Tim.
Great video
The 540 trim saw is used only in the trees because the guys get out of the trucks at a job. They all grab the small saws and they just don't care. The trim saw would be unusable and the climbers would get mad all the time. So that is why
It 30 weight oil in mine. Takes all of a pint.

I just looked it up. I like that it’s short. Will it still fit on a fitting that is recessed or is it too large diameter?
I’d say in the middle, you don’t have the trigger in the way like the lock n lube.
Nice job Tim, I can't remember the last time I lubed..Ahahaha
Have a great day Tim, Take care..👍
😳😳😳
@@cotontop3 like that kubota drive oil there pretty cheap here is around $15.00 and john deeres for theres are around $75.89
Just replaced the “jaws” on friends LockNLube, leaking, more grease around zerk than inside, works fine now, will see how long it lasts
Id love to try one those lock and lube ends awesome video
Great job enjoyed that, l have a one of those on my grease gun works fine. Just saying
What size torx is it I’m on my way to pick one up to change mine lol
My question exactly
Just did that to mine myself. 50 hours.
Do you know how to reset the service icon that pops up?
@@thomasszozda5247 if memory serves me correctly you push the button on the right and hold it down till it beeps. Button 5 I believe.

Rodney Moreland won it but I haven’t heard nothing from him yet

Mike Wawrzkiewicz I’m about at my wits end with him and that kind of stuff!!😂🤣😂🤣
Brenton Medders kinda surprised he didn’t make a Napa label and tape it on the can hahaha remember the cheep brake pads hahaha
Mike Wawrzkiewicz I do remember. He probably will next time after all these comments!!🤣🤣
Tim what is that beautiful blade you had there
If it’s what I’m thinking, it’s a Reeds custom cowboy knife. Look for that on Facebook
You know millimeters are way easier to work with lol
Tell the manufacturers. I agree it’s ridiculous. Metric is so much better and easier
Boy oh boy Brenton advance 🤮Napa mike
Mike Wawrzkiewicz I don’t know what to do with him!!
Those Greece Settings are trash
