editing??? whats your editing software??? you need the right amount of video; maybe/at least 2 cameras setup, tripods & mounts to place a gopro or other camera for pov/point-of-view perspectives. big memory cards & extra battery packs. maybe use alittle footage frm your celphone/hirez video... another consideration; sound... wind screening the camera mic? possibly use a normal/small video cam,era, por a point-&shoot/canon or sony... always remember, the more footage is better then not enough. you kinda need to creat a script in your head & plan out the various video & how you'll narrate it.... good luck....aloha

I worked on a lot of hydrolics and I can recommend anytime a motor goes bad should use a “filter cart” We used to have them at the shop on a cart that you can wheel around. Basically it’s just an electric pump and 4 big filters. Circulate your hydraulic oil around for a few hours it’ll clean your oil right up. Bad motors means bits of the motor ends up in the system. It can look clean but still have particulate that can ruin your other motors faster. Simple to make you could make a video about putting a filter cart together. Somewhat cheap too. Great for maintaining your hydraulics give them a circulate every now and then on all your machines

Engine oil on supertankers diesel engines is never changed in the whole boat's life (30 years) No additives,pure mineral oil ,it's simply super well filtered in a very good filtration system. All hydraulics systems must be very well filtered,the parts last way way longer. You should at least have a return line filter,and a pressure line filter to be sure your components last long.

I worked in a big rental place for years as a lead equipment mechanic. We ran Case Bobcat Takeuchi Kubota. My personal favorite was Case very simple to work on and parts were easy to get and any bobcat attachments were interchangeable. Very user friendly equipment. Next favorite was Takeuchi another piece of equipment that was easy to work on and could take a beating. We ran some Cat stuff but was to expensive to buy and work on same as John Deer plus John deer excavation equipment was junk slow and expensive to work on. Same with Kubota. Bobcat and Case is what we mainly bought and rented out. Case was all our skidsteer stuff my favorite being the 450 CT with 88hp that thing was awesome. We did run alot of Bobcat mini excavators. The E50 was also one of my favorites. Both those machines could do just bout anything. Loved em and just routine maintenance and they were good to go

I honestly don't even use an air hose anymore unless it's for filling tires up or cleaning stuff off... Also, I don't know if you have any Kroil or Acetone/ATF mix, but that helps with stubborn bolts, also heat, I'm sure you have an oxy set around.

Thanks, I just got this cap/plug set. Now I have an actually thing to screw into a hose like that to stop it from leaking.

Andrew make sure viewers understood what he wanted to do/repair the mechanical part that gave way causing that he was unable to steer the machine......he is a Good guy willing to share the problems encountering him .......He is just GREAT in all fields being Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering or Electrical Engineering......He is indeed a Jack of all trades .....!!

Can you do a cold start of the big green loader? Remember you said you need to start every now and then

At some point you have to stop lying to yourself.

Good job! Nice to see you tackling a job you’ve never done before.

Your videos are so well done and you have a knack for camera. Thank you for sharing

Andrew has a part for everything 😂

2300 ish hours and you are changing drive motors already? I work more with the tractor side of equipment but this seems to be a pretty major issue ($4000+ minimum) on a machine that hasn't even hit 2500 hours yet. Not exactly a ringing endorsement for bobcat. 8hrs a day worth of work 5 days a week is 2000 ish hours. This machine is only a little older than a year old in hours. Remind me to steer clear of Bobcat! Great Vid!!!

there are many bobcats who have 5000hours and still work, some people forget that you have to change the hydraulics oil every 1000 hours,

All to do with how it's looked after and run, had cat machines where drive motors would fail every 1500 hours, driven hard in a hire fleet and no final drive oil change. We soon told the boss about it and from then on changed the oil every 250 hours.

Gotta change the oil in the final drive. It only holds a couple of ounces. Every 500-750hours is good, gotta take the tracks off to do it

A shout out to the good boy, Levi! Oh hey, Andrew. Nice video and how-to...as always. Thanks for sharing.

Andrew-thanks 4 these type of videos. I love them. We get to learn w you!! As w auto work, those that do it often, learn as we go. Attempting new repairs. I appreciate that you take as along as you do repairs. ps: how many times I had to return re:manufactured parts. 😡

You need a 2stage compressor and a ¾" & 1" impact wrench.

Or at least one of those new cordless ones with > 1000 ft/lbs of torque... Probably cheaper overall than air and way, way more portable.

ck m cordless milwaukee impacts have replaced all the air tools in our shop. Air drivers are cumbersome and hard to move around underneath equipment

Picked up a DeWalt 1200 lb-ft cordless 20V I think. Haven't found a nut/bolt setup it can't crack yet. But ya gotta be careful. I've broken a few with that beast too.

I HOPE YOU'LL WORK ON YOUR "CASTLE" SOON.

Kudos to you! Obviously, by the great container shop/residence and equipment, you are not afraid of hard work. One thing I humbly suggest, buy a set of air ratchets & a big air impact or two. Your body will thank you for it when you get a few years under your belt. Again, I'm impressed by your work ethic and determination.

It's obvious you have an innate scene of mechanical ability you should attempt to fix anything you are interested in as long as you keep everything balanced as far as work, fun, love, life, etc. you will always do well. Your a special person Andrew keep up the good work and pet the dog...
