Ya it does good even on the big stumps. You just have to dig a little more to get them out.

Do you have the 1 cylinder Koop engine or the 3 cylinder Kubota? It doesn't sound like that. I think it's a Koop diesel? Do you have oil cooling? The Koop parts often don't have hydraulic cooling. The oil then finds its way. I had that too. I hope there is nothing leaking or defective. I just pushed it too hard

How did you get the inner plate that has the o-ring out? Mine had six hex key bolts instead of the four that yours looked like it had, but they seemed tight. I was gonna go ahead and try to replace the o-ring, but I can barely grip the plate with some big channel locks and the plate won’t budge. Any insight would be appreciated.

@@dirtadventuresHQ sorry, I should have mentioned that it was leaking. I wound up rocking it back and forth with the channel locks until I worked it off. Took it to a hydraulics repair shop and they tightened it up a bit. After reinstalling it, the motor seems to have stopped leaking. Thanks for your input.

I'm thinking you might want a root rake for a lot of this work. They also make moving debris easier - can grab more at one time. And soon as you can, get a hydraulic thumb. It looks like you have the same dipper as me - so get a Typhon 2008N -- the N is important! It's the one with the L-bracket for our machines. If using eBay, be careful - some sellers just throw the N on when it's not one.

What are you running your throttle at when using the blade to scrape in these trails? I have the AGT QK18 and even at half throttle just moving it forward on the driveway is jerky as can be, trying to figure out the best RPM to run it to scrape in some walkways between buildings on the property. Thanks!

I've installed two of these fans on a Chinese wheel loader one to push and one pull air you can reverse the wires to change the direction of the fan blades I also cut out the metal panelling to allow for maximum air flow, I connected the power wire to the starter bolt of course you can add a fuse to the positive wire.
