Make it right | Compact wheel loader

[@michaelowen1750]

Looks like you got plenty of free fertilizer for next years garden!

[@royosborn7869]

I have always enjoyed your attitude toward fixing things - patience and persistence. Thanks for posting - it will be fun to see how this ultimately turns out - should be very good.

[@richarddpetersen169]

Love following a "fix up" like this.

[@richarddpetersen169]

Also, some of that damage and HARD MISUSE could be attributed to hired help OR farmers family who just dont care

[@carlthor91]

@@richarddpetersen169 As Blake said, getting near the end of time they keep equipment, repairs fall into two categories, it needs it to keep going, or, the next owner can fix it. Best wishes.

[@mcd5082]

A lot of potential in that machine

[@WilliamCHyland]

I felt that hit on your eye through the video! Looks like that will be a very nice machine, when you get done with it. Just pressure wash everything every weekend the weather is good, and the dairy perfume will eventually go away. 😁

[@Military-Museum-LP]

I have never changed my own tires and this video just confirmed my thoughts.

[@Opigoink]

You certainly have your work cut out for you. Can't wait to watch this repair job

[@cableup1]

You restored my faith in my "fleet". My backhoe is a 30ish year old NH/Ford and my CTL is a 15 year old Gehl straight from the dairy. They are both rough but neither one is rougher than that five year old loader. At least they got all their glass and doors. I used to live in Loveland. I worked up around Cheyenne quite a bit and used to run into some locals with, uhmm, ocular alterations of a similar type to the one you are sporting. I always thought gin mill. Apparently I was projecting.

[@boilerhand1]

Should be a lot of life left for long term use. It's good to know it will be taken care of now. A useful video for other used equipment buyers. Thanks for the overview.

[@joemascioni3101]

Good job so far Mr Blake. It needs a guy with your attention to details to go over it and make it feel alive again.

[@super6954]

Man you are lucky you didn't loose that eye ! Thats one of those machines like some that come here to be fixed. If you wash it clean the cab and just fix the lights and broken glass it went up 10K in value just in looking better cosmetically . Thanks for the video, Take care.

[@billgunn1328]

Thanks for the video. Now u can tell a good story about the shiner!

[@hughstephenson2957]

That'd be prime equipment on the farm I grew up on!! You were lucky the tubes weren't sticking out through the tire!!

[@787Earl]

I enjoy your videos, Thank you

[@slagmaker6780]

Love the "Make it Right" :) great work!

[@screamindemon811]

Never seen a machine die from maintenance have seen plenty of them die from lack of. It always amazes e when guys say I just dont have time to fix this or that, and then when a machine goes down they scream how they cant afford to be down because it ran into problems from temporary fixes that never were fixed right or things they never fixed or maintained and last time I check even used machines weren't cheap.

[@railroadman57]

Fantastic. Video you’ve done a great job 👏. I really enjoyed this video very much thank you so much for posting this !

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

It will be nice when you finish it. Some of those repairs leave me wondering how in the world the stuff got broken in the first place lol

[@super6954]

I work fixing livestock tractors, It's called 1 careful owner and 99 rough idiot drivers working in the feedlot. I got the odd bits some cattle wreck as well . The sad part is even if they traded it on a new machine they'd wreck that just the same !

[@wysurvivor]

This going to be fun watching 👍

[@richardjohnson5883]

I’ll never understand why people destroy a piece of equipment like that. It’s going to be a nice loader when your finished.

[@michaelmactavish4445]

poor casey the case and kubota products allways get good valuesbut values goes down if abuseing them

[@geoffburrill9850]

Be a great machine when sorted.

[@bronco797]

Every time you added an item to the parts list I heard cha-ching.

[@KWayneWord]

That thing looks like it's in good shape compared to my old MF40 industrial loader. Wouldn't mind having it for a project.

[@paddrivers]

Here in the UK we call a black eye a "shiner" That Case will be a "shiner" when you've finished !

[@alanbradford3130]

I was thinking about getting some of those tire pry bars, but....after watching this video, I think I'll just keep going to the tire store.

[@timtimtim5294]

That’s a very nice machine!

[@theda850two]

That's a great machine 👏🏻 💪

[@hughstephenson2957]

This last spring I was trying to break a bolt loose with a breaker bar and the breaker bar...broke.. I lost a tooth, had a broken nose and was nicely bruised up for a month or so

[@poprawa]

I'm personally a fan of getting motors fixed, this one have brush sticking problem and is nothing is burned up it will be fine when clean, propably with new brushes

[@GMC.Sprint]

About the loader sensor adjustment. The sensing distance on unshielded proximity sensors is typically the diameter of the sensor. I would say for this application you would want the sensor to be about 1/2 of the sensor diameter away from the flag rod.

[@CrimeVid]

You know where the door is… hidden ! ridden hard and left standing ! That machine is nearly new as far as farm machinery goes

[@beaseac]

Nice!

[@jimmybritt9537]

That operator just abused that machine in every way possible

[@eldoradony]

I find it amazing how many parts were missing or broken. Fenders, battery box, and tail lights I understand. What happened to the A/C vents, speaker grille, door and window? I don't have any idea what a loader costs, but I'm sure its not cheap. You would think the owner or regular operator would take better care.

[@AirplaneDoctor_]

Both dairy and poultry farms are bad environments for equipment, manure is a huge factor for killing the machines. Add to that employees who don’t have a vested interest in the machinery and it’s a perfect combination for running equipment into the ground prematurely compared to say a cash crop operation.

[@jmplants]

I would like to see more videos like this plus other stuff to

[@bkb5668]

I really like this little loader. I am jealous, I have a nice tractor and skidsteer but would love a dedicated wheel loader mabey just a bit bigger model. I have seen a few listed but as of Feb. 22' prices are crazy and the market is shit. Hopefully next year I can purchase the neighbors 450 dozer, another skidsteer right at 75 hp and an articulated wheel loader that weighs about 12,000#. How much does the one you have weigh??? Let me know thanks!!!

[@akfarmboy49]

It’s a handy size machine I’d fix it

[@zach_hewitt]

Gonna be a nice rig once you’re done Blake. Hey KennyD, any hoodies available?

[@GuyinWY]

Mine is getting pretty beat and coming apart...need to retire it for posterity sake.

[@ronniewalker2881]

good job man good video

[@lewishein1337]

Is this going to be yours?

[@wbball15]

Blake, that was an incredible impact. Also, did you use your metric universal wrench? More Later

[@marshallman1au]

Goodonya Blake! :)

[@rodgercottrill3342]

Some one bought it an tore it up I have seen equipment they tore the hell of it for reason I don't no

[@calumanderson5617]

Did they wash the glass with a hammer Blake??

[@towtowstrailtalk6853]

We have one of these 21F’s i’m on mechanic for construction company and this thing is my problem Child

[@shalininaicker]

You've got your work cut out for you there Blake.

[@jalenwalshak3598]

Blake it’s fertilizer for ur garden 😂😂😂😂

[@bloodydeath1222]

so did i miss a vid where you bought this

[@kenuber4766]

"That'll learn ya to keep your head out of the way"...That's what my ole man would have said to me!! HaHaHa or go rub some dirt on it.

[@garykolo8650]

Black eye from the tire changing incident ?

[@jimsmith1946]

Wow that's a cream puff 🤣

[@Gilly14]

LOL! It not only looks like sh!t, It smells like sh!t.

[@Joker_68]

L O FREAKING L 🤣

[@vw4x4]

Its obvious that some one intentionally was doing damage to this machine.... They need to be held accountable...

[@ohhpaul7364]

I gave myself a black eye with a tire iron the very first time I ever used one. Felt like an idiot afterward too.

[@chuckychuck]

👍👍👍👍

[@chuckychuck]

Damn, you could have lost that eyeball.

[@banjobenson9348]

5K in parts and 5K in labor would be a good start.

[@carlthor91]

I'm starting to think, double the first part.😱😎

[@marshmellomatey]

Did you see stars or birds when you got hit in the face? I usually see lightning!

[@ehood87]

We’re they loading salt in the ocean?

[@feelnrite]

Mexican labor.

[@morgansword]

After watching this, ten percent of online bidders pulled their bids. I always expect damages to exceed what they seem to be an some companies want volume versus pretty meaning if the machine was never designed to do but pushed into that line of work, it was a permission to trash with no remans so you have a machine that hopefully is more labor than damage to fix. I didn't pay attention to who owns it, you or someone else as that says how much will get fixed. Ah, don't get me started on how everyone would like a chance to run it while still new to farm but first problems that seem bad just might be found now and a tax write off, and then six months later again by its new owner.

[@jaredcutshall4600]

We need tire bars people please help us. We need a better set that does not put us on the struggle bus!!!!!

[@WilliamTMusil]

Hiya Blake

[@neb4x4]

That loader really isn’t in bad shape. With 2500? Ish hrs? Operators on the railroad would have it 3x worse from new in only about 300-400 hrs. Bad thing about being a mechanic for a big company, that machine isn’t the operators, they don’t have to pay for the repairs, so they don’t care! (Not all of them are like that). Make sure you change the final drive oil! Put a good synthetic like Schaefer’s, or AMS oil in! Not a bad loader by any means!

[@bb38313]

Your cousin Ryan could use you to get his v12 1986 Jaguar running

[@cobra19946]

People don't care about the companies equipment until its no longer there. Then the complain that they don't have nice equipment to use.

[@donald1056]

I wonder how much that left side door and window is $3,000 +-

[@calholli]

I guess I dont' understand why it needed tires.. There's at least 10k more hours on those tires, easy.

[@d6joe]

Sooo, not 2,500 hours, more like 12,500 hours.???

[@danielpitre8620]

hope you didnt pay for that machine

[@danielpitre8620]

someone who obviously has no idea what maintenance means

[@nightstorm9128]

It looks like someone went at that thing with a baseball bat....for a newish machine the owners should be ashamed of them self s .....

[@genedewitt3992]

No it does not look good .....
