In this video, I get my Takeuchi mini digger back up and running after it’s been stored in my shipping container for 8 months. The main problem? It was overheating, with the temperature gauge way above the red line. After some troubleshooting, I discover that the issue was caused by a wiring problem. Watch as I diagnose and fix the overheating issue to get the digger running smoothly again.
I also check over the machine’s condition, including the seals on the rams that are weeping hydraulic fluid. While the hydraulic leak isn’t making the digger unsafe to use, it’s something I’ll have to fix soon. To keep the machine in working order, I lubricate the necessary nipples and point out other areas needing attention.
If you're new to heavy machinery like me, this video is a great way to learn the basics of diagnosing and fixing common issues. From wiring problems causing overheating to maintaining components like hydraulic seals and lubricating key parts, we’ll go through it step by step. Join me as we figure out how to keep equipment running smoothly and tackle repairs together. Let me know in the comments what you'd fix next on this mini digger-let's learn as we go.
