Nope, its on winter list post retirement. Its close but not sure how user friendly it is. I can probably PDF it. They sure put in a lot of redundancy in the wiring like they were getting paid by the foot. For my use I plan to take apart several of the Amphenol connectors and remove wiring.

I am game, I have an optima that is going bad just after the warranty is going out.

I replaced the rod and bushing a couple of years ago. I did it without removing the cab. The one thing I could not do was replace the retainer clips on the throttle pivots. The clips keep the pivots from coming apart. They are spring loaded without the clips but they can come off. Maybe someone...

FLU farm has just about all the variations that will hang off the front mounting plate. I was told but have not confirmed that the MB94 uses a different front mount system. The 419 is basically a beefed up MB94 that was run through military trials and beefed up until it passed. It has got a...

In cased you are still chasing the dreaded fan fuse, be aware that the circuit is only energized when a temperature switch in the hydraulics is above a certain temp. You need to jump it out to do any testing with a cold SEE. Secondly there is service advisory for these hydraulic fans. The motors...

My master was sticking on for a year. I sprayed it with lubricant a few times and even though it was stuck on I would still rotate it on and off. One day it started working again. No more disconnecting the batteries everytime I was not using it.

To me it was quite a difference going from the the Michelins to the Pirelli's on the road. I much prefer the Pirellis. In warm weather if got it down to 20 minutes a tire once I figured out that the best bead breaker is a wooden plank and the SEE. That air powered rig that I bought to pull the...

A bit of sad political commentary, the SEE was designed and intended for ground war with the Soviets in Europe. It looks like it was just 30 years too early :(

If you run the backhoe as intended in warm weather the fans should cycle on and off. I did an extended project and an 85 degree day and they were running full time. Some folks like FLU farm runs the backhoe at low engine speed and I expect that the fans really do not have to run. There is a...

N o you do not, there is a roller assembly attached to the linkage in the cab that rolls on the linkage attached to the engine.

I agree, its got all the Mercedes Info and is acurate. It does not have the Diagnostic harness or the rear deck wiring that was added on in the US

hmm a new option for my SEE

Tool box behind the backhoe seat may not exist especially with a recapped unit. Not sure why they stopped putting them on. Mine has one but the piano hinge is rusted close to solid. There is a special long travel hydraulic jack designed for jacking the SEE. They are rare. Here is listing from...

BTW my Master switch started working this weekend after about a year. I had dosed it with lubricant at one point so whatever was stuck in it finally let loose

My See seems to be acting like a crane of late. I did a wood boiler out of basement about 2 weeks ago (no pictures) and on a solar trailer I was reconfiguring yesterday. The original trailer had two sets of panels that could rotate independently. That probably works in the middle of a field...

Funny you ask, my master switch is stuck on. I can turn it but its stays engaged. There are several running lights that stay lit so I have to pull the battery terminal whenever I am not using it. EI does not stock the switch. Its on the very long "list" of things to chase ;)

The diagnostic wring was added on in the US after it left Mercedes factory. it obvious they attached it on after it was assembled. One or two folks claimed to have removed the entire harness. There is current shunt near the battery box that have given a few folks issues with corroded...

Great pics. Yes having the capability to move big heavy stuff can get a lot of toys for cheap. As my friends aunt used to say when my friends uncle brought something big home "It will look good at the auction" (with reference to the one she was going to have when he passed ;). Sad to say when...

I was thinking of making a mount for the SEE jackhammer and hanging it from the backhoe bucket. Good to know there are at least two SEEs out there with the optional ripper bucket. Its solid piece of iron.

Might I suggest starting a new thread so this does not get lost. IMHO, the government didnt order anything close to this but the platform is pretty versatile. There could be issues with harmonics with the vehicle suspension. My guess is you could hit the front coil spring frequency and it...
