    Topcon laser on bobcat grader

    Update. Long time coming I guess... Got the grader back Friday everything appears to work. Ground is frozen still snowing nothing set up to grade. I did a rough test run and it seems like it is doing something by itself. Dealer purchased and installed themselves at no cost to us Trimble Main...

    Jcb 409 driving issue

    It turned out to be dirty in the forward reverse solenoid as expected. In theory I didn't see really a lot of junk in it, only one small spec in I particular. But that's all it takes I guess.

    Jcb 409 driving issue

    Been thinking and researching for a few weeks now and am figuring it is likely something stuck in the cartridge on the solenoid. Rd to camp is too muddy to get out there without ruining it. I'll report back once I can get out there and figure things out.
