You're fine AZ, you're allowed one brief description of your company. I pulled from the "Rules" section at the top:

"A vendor of goods or services may start one introductory thread explaining their product or service and may answer questions about such within that thread. No further promotion of your product or service may be made without sponsorship."

On edit: A second reading of it shows you may start a thread... whoops. I think Steve will let you slide. :)

You've come to the right place. There's a wealth of information here. Did you find what you were looking for?

We've been building transmissions for your company for the last two decades so I hope you aren't having trouble with one of ours...

I may be calling you for some advice as we have a small problem that is driving me nuts. I think it's a wiring harness but I'll let you know if we can't find it.:D

We would be glad to help as always. Still, it might be worth starting a thread anyway since you're no longer a probationary member. I'm sure the members of this forum would appreciate being able to take a whack at it!

While we have our knowledge, we don't know everything- you never know, there could be a member that's experienced the exact same thing. I'd say if you have the time, it's always worth a try.

Hay all
I have been involved with farming and farm equipment for 35 years. The last few years I have picked up some heavy equipment to use around the farm. Most of it is older equipment and I do most of the repairs myself. Your site has been and I know will be very helpful in the repair, restoring of my equipment.

My experience, well I grew up on a ranch working on and running tractors. Now I am 32 years old. Bought my first dozer (D3B) almost 3 years ago. Bought a little 6 yard Ford dump truck 1 year ago. And just made my exciting purchase of a excavator last week. A MDI/ Yutani 140B LC. Runs good, looks nice but have a few questions. I will post in a new thread later but the question is.

The Yutani 140, same as a Kobelco 120, I think. Has 4 run settings on a dial. Mine is all wore out and I dont have any books, but could someone tell me what the different settings are. Moving clockwise and starting at the far left, 10 o'clock it looks like a I, S, C, D.

Thanks, Matt
