    Are Bepco parts good ?

    Ive contacted AIC in the US.Your prices in the states are less than half of our local suppliers.Hopefully they get back to me . Bepco here is not much cheaper than case so I’ll rather get original if I go local .Maybe safer ,everything so far I’ve fitted has been from Case .

    580sk sequence valve

    I realise that ,I can slow boom myself.I can’t get it to swing on the left.Valve must be faulty ,another strip job. Transaxle first . Had new brakes fitted ,but seal gas popped on one side .I thought it was a hose ,but nope .Not looking forward to the heavy weight.

    580sk sequence valve

    I removed my sequence valve ,don’t have a cam follower on the new pin. I dont know how it was before the new pin .Is there a middle point to set it to swing both ways strongly. I put shims to pull the shaft out ,and can get to work properly to the right ,left is a no go .

    580sk oil temp sensor location

    Found it on one of the hydraulic return lines before the pump .Seems like the French built machines are a little different or the ones sent to S Africa.

    580sk oil temp sensor location

    Can someone point out where the oil temp sensor is located on the 580SK phase 3 .I can’t see it on the transaxle and it’s not on the hydraulic oil return housing.

    580sk electrical schematics

    I would start with the starter relay if you have 12v coming in then 12v going out when ignition is on acc. Check continuity across fuse pins .Do all of them ,wires like corroding off at the back end
