How Did You Find Us?

[digger242j]

I would just like a response from someone who owns this backhoe.

That would be your husband, wouldn't it? He's probably not responding because you've knocked him unconcious with a frying pan for buying a machine that doesn't work.

Not everybody reads all the new member introductions. I created a thread in the backhoe section of the forums so that your question will get the attention it deserves. This link will take you there: https://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/Forum/showthread.php?p=28142#post28142 (Sorry I can't help personally.)

And, welcome to the forums!

I recently bought a JCB 215 S Series II backhoe. Just yesterday, the brakes locked up and it would not go forward. I checked and its not the emergency brake. I ordered the owners manual but am extremely worried it is something major.

Actually, this is Dtmans wife. My husband is frustrated and I know he can fix anything. I would just like a response from someone who owns this backhoe. Any ideas the problems?

Welcome to HEF dtman and his wife! :drinkup

I posted a comment to CE regarding an article last month or February, and that's when I actually noticed the Forum link.

I've been a reader of Construction Equipment for years and years and have contributed articles and comments for the magazine. Was a Maintenance Manager of the month in CE a while back, 2002 or somewheres around that.

Larry Stewart and I have talked for years and visited at the road shows occasionally, so I'm no newcomer to the magazine. But somehow I overlooked this forum, though believe I had suggested it a while back (probably along with many others) when CE was looking for website ideas.

I'm enjoying writing in the forum, and seeing the exchange of opinions and ideas from all over, particularly input from the blokes from down under and over in Europe. There's a lot of neat guys involved in the website.

I've been on the FleetXchange website for years as a member, but that is nearly all trucking. I've also contributed to the Historical Construction Equipment Association, Antique Caterpillar Machinery Owners Club, and Dave's Model Toys websites. So am quite happy that I stumbled upon this site, as big, heavy iron is where it's at for me.
