This is the most action packed video on KZbin

[@timsd0nahue]

Thank you. The presenter did an excellent job, no nonsense just good information. I wish there were more videos like this, I appreciate not having to listen to bad rock music, enduring some quirky presenter or having to scroll through 15 minutes of crap to get to the subject matter. Liked and subscribed.

Hi I wanted to ask? I have a liebher r920. Was wondering if it's advisable to do 500hr service intervals vs 250 hr

[@takudzwachiwara4595]

Goood lesson

[@dextermazuka5022]

Great video. I love dit and i hope I will see a lot of your videos

[@TekamoHD]

Hey Dexter! Thanks for watching and glad you like them! Is there any video topics you'd like to see in the future? We'd love your feedback on our other videos as well.

[@Kernelowski]

@@TekamoHD I dont know about the others, but I'm living in norway and this video helped me with a test we had last week. It was one of the questions: "Explain roughly what is 250 hour service about".

[@Kernelowski]

So what I'm saying is that answering construction education questions is a good idea for the videos I guess

[@TekamoHD]

@@Kernelowski Hey Kernelly, we're happy to hear this video helped. Were there any other questions on your test that a video would've helped with that we can make? Or perhaps other subjects you'd like to see videos on?

[@nelsonsantos770]

I bought an old case 1085C excavator, it's in pretty good condition, replaced and fabricated radiator tank. But my problem is some minor leaks on hydraulic hoses on stabilzer and transmission joint, I'm not a mechanic but would really like to learn more, where do I start?

[@Redcadence]

the operators manual is a good place to start. the service manual after that

[@jeremynoll8662]

Where is the oil leaking from is of leaking from the fitting or the hose

[@danswhetstone3415]

is there anyway to print transcript? very helpful vid! thank yoU!

[@TekamoHD]

Hi Dan. We don't know of a current way to print a transcript from this video. Are you looking for something to reference in the field while you do an engine oil change? If so, what machine are you working on?

[@radhouanebenzirar9327]

Peace be upon you What is the reason for water mixing with diesel in the C18 engine?

[@williamriquelme2147]

Hi Radhouane, if your breathers and fill caps are working fine, most water comes from the condensation created in the walls of the fuel tank when the machine cools down, some will come from your fuel provider's reservoir. Most equipment will have a water separator filter with a drain cock or a quick-drain at the bottom the fuel tank so this must be drained daily before the machine goes to work.

[@RAVINDRAKUL]

Sir as per my knowledge needs to warm up engine before draining oil.

Hi good day sir can i ask something about my caterpillar backhoe loader ,the problem is not saw fast if ican put in gear no.4 plzzz help me sir

[@copperpiiiipe]

Ok

[@staceybuchanan7739]

I would have filled that filter with oil before installing

[@DoneWrong_Diesel]

Usually, that is not required and not a common practice on most machinery nowadays. Most are remote mounted and do not contribute directly to anything that requires lubrication besides the sump. You also risk adding foreign debris/contamination into the filter if you pre-fill.

[@georgecroney6168]

As said above, you have the small risk that you can contaminate the engine. The large central hole in the filter is it's outlet meaning it goes straight through the gallery, jets and into tour crank bearings, if a speck of dust or worse were to find it's way into that filter on the outlet side (big inviting hole to fill) it'll go straight into one of these places resulting in potential catastrophic failure and a rebuild. This risk is higher when youre working in the field and its a dusty yard or quarry etc. The risk is tiny but over a career might get you into trouble. Hope that all makes sense.

[@zhenluFu-eo1sh]

It's wrong ,you should drain the oil of the filter before change the filter

[@williambaldwin1707]

You can but it’s not necessary. It’s more for a cleaner job or if it’s just stopped running and has pressure. You can skip the drain if you want to.

[@nelsonsantos770]

what will happen if you overfill the oil, will it burst on the seam?

[@Redcadence]

if its anything like a car, theres a good chance it will do some damage due to hydro lock. say its too full, or it expands due to heat, your piston creating a seal wih the cylinder wall can strike the oil on the downward stroke weather its power or intake cycle. the oil itself is incompressible and the piston striking the oil can cause severe damage akin to it essentially hitting a wall at high speed. it can also cause frothing if it contacts the rotating assembly which will make it really hard to draw oil thru the pickup, eventually starving the engine of its oil. a cool demonstration i saw: if you want an example of the hydro lock, get 2 cups, one big and one small enough to freely fit inside the big one. fill the big one with water and try to push the small cup into it and feel the force push against your hand. if you wanna see frothing, get a cup and fill it with cola. blow bubbles into it with a straw and then drink it thru the straw with the straw in the non bubbled pop vs the bubbles at the top. compare how much you drink from liquid vs the bubbles.

[@frankowusuafriyie1334]

you can order the filter element alone without the housing. ordering both is a waste of cash.
