A detailed video of how to remove the piston from a main boom hydraulic cylinder, replace the seals, reinstall the piston, then test the cylinder. I ended up taking the piston and shaft out twice due to a mistake, the second installation, towards the end of the video, has better video than the first. I made this video partly as a reminder in the likelihood that I have to do it again.

  • Just a note on loctite. Use loctite primer spray before applying the loctite. The oils can interfere with its adhesion. It also will set it up way faster for a sooner full strength without contamination.

    • Or at least spray with break cleaner and let dry good will help also

  • You spilled a little oil. Not sure if you were aware. Great video! About to tackle the same repair myself.

    • I'm sure that was a sarcasm. I spilled a bunch of oil, unfortunately. Good luck on your repair! Mine is still holding just fine.

  • I know this is a year or more ago. Look up the manufacturer for the thread locker used to see which number of their product is needed. Not to mention most of them require a heat soak to remove. I say that as a small amount is what's needed. Just wet the thread lightly, enough to engage but not so much it has to drip off. Mainly for the next time you might need to disassemble..

    • Thank you for the tip. I have not had to disassemble anything yet on which I have applied Loctite, so hopefully when I need to I can! The blue is supposed to be released with significant force, whereas the red needs heat and force. I will say that I applied the red to a nut on a piece of equipment that was constantly vibrating loose, and on which I never saw the need to remove. That nut has not moved since!

    • @@dalewcox just so happened to be on here.. The color of thread lockers aren't always indicative of "Strength". I learned the hard way once before.. After someone else pointed out loctites website and their product chart I realized the general rule of thumb was way off. It's times like these we learn after the fact and hopefully we don't have to back track over a repair but if we do at least we have an idea about how to best go about it.

    • @@wayne251975 Interesting. Applying Loctite in this video was either the first or second time I ever used the stuff, so not a lot of use history for me. Thanks again for the tips. Literally the day before I saw your used the blue stuff again on some notes I know I will have to take off perhaps 3 years from now. Hopefully no harder lessons for me down the road.

  • Is this skid steer reliable and how much should I buy one fore

    @ferenzi7741@ferenzi77413 жыл бұрын
    • This is the only skid steer I have owned, I bought it used from a rental place, so it was fairly severely used, and I have had my fair share of repairs, mostly from it having been deep in mud at some point and associated corrosion from not having been cleaned out. Bottom line is I have in total about $35,000 into it at this point, and it shouldn't need anything but regular maintenance for some time to come, at least that is my hope. I am told if I wanted to sell it I should be able to get more than what I have into it. I love the machine, it can do a lot.

    • Yep. Allergies were kicking my tail at that time. I hope the video was helpful. I mainly made it so I could remember what I did in case I have to do it again.

  • So you’re saying 400.00 for the dealer to do this is a good price considering the seal kit is 180.00 lol

    • Yeah...today I am a bit short on cash AND time. Back when I did this I was shorter on time. Sometimes I am finding that I need to let people earn a living and focus more on what I am doing to earn mine. I don't earn a living doing this. Having said that, I enjoy the process and like to learn.
