I have a foton and a dong feng and neither one has a grease fitting for the clutch shaft , I use a good spray lube with a nozzle straw and do the other shafts and levers also.
Heah BOB I got the skid steer going , funny the old belt system pulleys ID was so worn the new chain drive is hugely quieter, I had to add .015 shim stock between crank and new chain hub to take out the beaten out slop but the speed turned out good with 2 to 1 all I need to do is add a idler sprocket to take up a little slack for future wear adjustment and it will be done again till the next time. there is always a next time.
it does not take much arcing to cause a 20 amp fuse to pop, you will be good to go now though.
yeah and I am gonna get the series 60H chain too. it takes about another 1000 lbs of force , a bit over 9000 lbs. gonna do weldable hubs to the sprockets and use set collars opposite the hubs and weld them on also hopefully that will be that. Agri-Supply best price around for this stuff and I looked a lot.
nope that model Case has belt driven hydro pumps. I have a call in to verify horsepower to series chain that will be needed, It looks like a single, series 60 chain and sprockets will be really close . But I am gonna ask the people who deal with this stuff daily and see what they suggest.
It was good to talk to you if everything goes to plan this aint gonna be to bad. It looks like a 2 to 1 ratio will be good enough with chains and sprockets will let you know how it works in a few days.
Yes you have sent me thru skid steer forum and I joined that group but there is not much there with the skid steers of this age from what I have seen this model was first made in 1964 the end production date I have not been able to find out. What I have found out is that this hydro operated speed control pulley is a weak spot in the design. It might be easier to call me so maybe we can get on the same page my cell is 727 421 7072 I am on eastern time.
The hydro pump is run off the flywheel direct and the wheels get power from the engine crank thru a hydro operated piston that operates variable speed pulley that belts to a jackshaft. I looked at the dingo it is hydrostatic trans. or I missed the pulley system I will look again now I was kinda rushed before..
I talked to bobcat and also checked on their parts website and the parts show NLA and the parts yards that I checked do not have them parts either. the crank is 1-1/2 inches with 3/8 keyway belt is 3/4 thick and 1-3/4 wide . The original variable pulley dia. is approx. 9 inches. If you got any ideas let me know before I start modifying please.
Hello, BOB. do you have any idea what the average variable sheave type cvt pulley ratio is? reason I ask on the bobcat 500 the engine side sheave pulley half shattered the other day.(parts no longer available) when all has been going so good with it. I am thinking about making it a chain drive between the engine and the jack shaft ,fixed speed ,so I need to keep it slow for power but not painfully slow. Just trying to get it good the first time around. any thoughts?
