    Have many hours on dozers and know it’s one of the most difficult pieces of equipment to master... you definitely make it look much easier than it really is. Kudos to you, nice job.

    not sure that it's mandatory that you hit the decelerator pedal before switching from forward to reverse.. Does It help?? I'm sure it does. Do I do it all the time ? no... Man I learned from never touched the decel. Just kept it at a steady pace all day, never had any issues. If you look closely at 18:28 you can see and hear me hit it. Hope this helps.

    I’m pretty sure it’s a different design, but they are definitely known to have issues. I think it’s mostly due to lack of maintenance though. Service every other oil change and check for shavings. Maybe catch the bearing going bad before it goes out. I’ve spoken with a guy that has three, and said every one he’s owned won’t make it over 8,000 hrs without a final being rebuilt. 8,000 is a lot though. Other than that a great machine. I know guys with over 12k hours, original motor and hydraulics

    @@hoskinslogging9858 I've never ran the H series. From what I've heard they are good machines as well. Not many differences from the H to the J. I will say the biggest problem you'll find on the H and J model is the TCU (transmission control Unit). Prone to go out or moisture will make it do crazy things. It's about 4,000.00 to replace from Deere, but there are companies now that will rebuild them for around 800.00. The Hydrostatic Coupler will go out at some point, around 3,000 in parts. Track sensors are a big problem with the J's. Around 1,000.00 for both to replace and recalibrate the machine. I can say that both mechanics I've used for Deere are as experienced as they come, and have only seen one hydrostatic system fail.

    @rwdozerco.5403

    3 жыл бұрын

    There’s no specs or plans for this type of work. Width is irrelevant here unless it was too narrow. Just needs drainage and robbing material anywhere & everywhere that you can. Taking light cuts from a larger area to backfill the holes. Wider the better for sunlight to keep it dry as well. Hopes this helps.
