Bobcat Hydraulic Repair 1

Part 1 of the Bobcat Bucket Positioning Valve Repair Series. Great information with a fun presentation. Thanks for watching.

Another great video. I loved it when you were searching for words to descibe what you were looking at at 3.37 "this piece here" pause... FUBAR springs to mind. ;-) I like the magnet trick described in Matta Allen's comment.

***** Anyone who thinks its easy to talk on a subject cold, in front of a camera, ought to try doing it. I take the attitude that if people don't like what you are doing [some don't like music] they don't have to watch. FUBAR is probably fairly universal in military vernacular. Its appearance in Saving Private Ryan possibly made it more main stream. I'm looking forward to part two. Did you video the look on the guys face at the Bobcat place when you showed him the valve.;-)

Cracking vid ... really had me glued.... Agree with comment below regarding the transition with the nuts and bolts exploding... Pretty cool on a 24" monitor close up! I'll be amazed if that part can be salvaged and I'd be inclined to drain and flush your lines and replace the filter at least...

***** Not too late to change the filter and fluid chap ... encourages a long life on the seals anyway... If you suspect ferrous items in the solution then one way to tell is stick a good sized rare earth magnet on the side of the filter... give it a few hours running time and when you change the filter cut it open carefully with the magnet kept in place (duct tape helps) and inspect... This also works for engine oil/fuel filters ... Hope that helps ... I've got a lot from your videos and if there's just one tiny little thing that might help you in return I'm going to chance it!

***** If I had something worth sharing I'd do just that! kudos to you sir for putting in the effort and hopefully people see what you do, like it and fancy a slice of they own from you... :o)

I hope that works out for you at Bobcat. I also think taking it to them that is the best solution. My control valve (buried in the bottom of the machine on the right side) that leaked was an easy fix but an absolute nightmare to diagnose, remove and reinstall. At the very least yours is easier to get to!

Great video! My 751 control valve leaked and we had to remove it. It was only an oring.
