    Snow insurance.

    I bought my Case at the beginning of last snow season. Got it all set up just the way I wanted along with making sure everything was perfect. Now we're getting close to the end of the second season and I've only used it one time and probably didn't even need to use it then. Had about 2 inches...

    Case 1840 muffler

    I realize these machines these machines are loud inside from all the mechanical parts involved but can't help notice how loud the sound coming from the exhaust pipe outside. Looks like the original muffler. Thinking perhaps the baffles are blown out. Any reason to believe a new muffler...

    HTO fluid solution?

    I know this has been beaten to death but I haven't heard anything lately. Hoping someone has a solution for our Case machines. My 1840 has wicked low hours. It has had a filter change that is obvious with the NAPA filter in place. It will be in need of a fluid change after this winter. What...

    Ahhh crap Case 1840 lap bar spring broke

    I just finished putting sound proofing and a new seat in the beastie. Todays project was to install non-skid steps up and into the cab over my home brewed angle plow attachment. While working on it, the lap bar stopped holding up.

    flow control limiters Power angle plow to fast

    Just finished adapting a 9 foot Fisher power angle plow to my Case. Works to good. At idle it angles to fast. Need to add something to slow it down. Looking for suggestions/link to something that will work. Got it all fab'd up and tested. Then took it all apart to paint it.

    Case 1840 hydraulic couplings???

    I'm adapting a Fisher power angle plow to my 1840. I've never used the aux hydraulics on this. The flat faced couplers at first glance looked like everyone else's AKA universal. I ordered a set on line, got everything put together only to discover they don't fit. The outside diameter of the...

    Case 1840 starting question

    Every once in a while when I try to start it I get a click from the starter I think but no spin. I checked the external connections on the starter and they seem fine. Almost like the solenoid is not sending power to the motor. I pulled the starter out and apart to examine it, including the...

    Shallow well with a skid steer.

    Prior to buying a skid steer, I have made many attempts to "drive" a shallow well point on my land with no luck. I am told I have plenty of water at the 20 foot mark but have broken at least 3 points trying to drive through a nasty band of clay at about the 10 foot mark. Curious if anyone has...

    Case HTO alternative

    So I'm told the HTO additive has been discontinued. Many of the new tractor fluids have the main ingredients that the HTO additive adds to regular motor oil. My question is though, when we are forced to make a change and dump our tanks, how do we know what we're putting in is compatible (will...

    Skid steer wheel lugs and lug nuts???

    General question because I don't know. I have a Case 1840 that has one snapped off stud. Having trouble finding a direct replacement. Going to pull the wheels to paint the rims so there may end up needing more.

    Case 1840 questions

    I didn't want to hyjack the other case thread. There's one of these sort of local to me. Hoping to go look at it tomorrow. Case is not my first choice as I have never seen one around here but this one looks to be in nice original paint condition, has just been serviced and looks to have a...

    Caterpillar tilt piston parts

    I don't have the model number yet Waiting on that but it's a generic question about Caterpillar parts. It appears as though the end of the ram shaft is snapped off. Nothing there to slide the pin through. Can you buy just the shaft to repair it or does Caterpillar make you buy the whole ram?

    hot wire traction lock to tow a Bobcat

    Is there a simple way to unlock the traction lock so a non running Bobcat 763 can be winched up onto a trailer or flatbed tow truck? It's been sitting for a very long time so I'm sure the battery is dead. Hopefully without having to tilt the cab and snip wires to hot wire it. I know it's a 3...

    2002 Cummins 4-390 engine???

    I'm assuming in 2002 that this engine is 100% mechanical injection. I think this engine even has a mechanical camshaft driven lift/fuel pump similar to a fuel pump on a old small block Chevy. Anyway, I'm told that it starts right up and runs well but then randomly shuts down. So I guess there...

    Gehl 4640 ???

    I have been looking for a used skid steer for the sole purpose of plowing my own driveway. I only have experience with Cat and Bobcat. I don't know anything about the Gehl brand. I found this 2005 4640 in my own town with a FS sign on it. All I know until the owner gets back to me is it...
