Good times with a 710d.

[@gala1ish]

Hi Warren, This is a compliment! I hope you got plenty of family/kids around you to read them bedside stories, your voice and personality is cool so even with the odd naughty word. Cheers

[@Sevalecan]

Reminds me of a story my dad told me while he was working on a dozer or road grader (forget which).. Had some giant nut to take off, had his gas powered air compressor and his 1" impact wrench.... He just kept cranking the pressure regulator up on the compressor until they hit 200psi, and it finally got the bolt off. Good times.

My brother stayed in the navy for 26 years and made 0-6. We used to get all our torque wrenches and electronic test analyzers calibrated thru him and the good old navy. I want to thank them for saving us thousands over the years. Oh yeah, I was in for 4 1/2 years.

[@johnc.wunscheljr2873]

Some times I take a rachet tiedown strap and pull the hoses out of the way so you can get to them, some times you got to pull some loss. Great video thanks.

[@outlaw7x77]

Warren, There ain't a damn thing wrong with your tool organization! I worked at Boeing with a lot of guys whose #1 job seemed to be "organizing!" Funny how they never got much work done. I like your style!

[@adhdieseltech236]

This is the story of why I always bring a hammer to work on hydraulics. I worked at a Volvo Construction equipment dealership and a company traded in a Volvo L 90 H which is a midsize loader for those who don’t know. It came with an auxiliary hose hooked up for an attachment, could’ve been a snowblower, broom, high-tilt bucket, I don’t know. I didn’t get much information, but this hose didn’t go to anything so it was just an open line and it hadn’t been removed probably since they got the loader. The fitting had corroded on there and I had a bit of a task up ahead. This machine couldn’t be moved until the auxiliary had been capped off because oil spilled everywhere when the machine is on because it was just a dangling hose. My foreman didn’t want the little hose that adapted from the Volvo hydraulics to whatever attachment they had. It was about 12” long. Anyway, I’m about 165 pounds at 6’5” so I’m not light but I’m not huge. I’m light for my height. The hose was about 1.5 inches or more so I didn’t have a wrench big enough to fit on the fitting which was probably around 2 inches. So I get my big!adjustable and I borrow a wrench from my coworker and I am bouncing on this wrench to try to break the fitting loose. It was cold and it wasn’t supposed to be a long job. On the service order it says “Take dangling hose off and cap line” so it sounds like a 10 minute job. I’m now 20 minutes in trying to break the fitting loose. At one point the wrench slipped off and I hit my knuckles and I was getting pissed. Naturally I went to my mentor and also my coworker who happens to be around 350 pounds to try to break it loose. He takes one look at the fitting and goes and grabs a hammer. Not a big on, only a 24oz hammer. He hits the fitting on the edge of a face where you put a wrench on and I watch the fitting loosen as he hit it. Tap tap, two hits and it’s loose. He cracked a smile, looked at me and said “yeah that was really tight wasn’t it?” From that day on I always bring a hammer to work on hydraulics.

[@MrPaul1f]

That same method was shown to me under similar circumstances, a bit of a life saver when doing repairs in the field.

[@Sevalecan]

Hammers & vibration can work wonders. In the same vein, my father and I were trying to remove a balljoint from the knuckle of our 91 suburban I think. The hydraulic press was just flexing the knuckle, so we resorted to pounding on the ball joint with the air hammer instead.... Wasn't moving much, then I grabbed a hammer to pound on the side while my dad ran the air hammer... Finally started pushing the POS out. I would've never thought of that had he not taught me how a hammer can help loosen things that way. We already had the air hammer on it, but adding some impact from a different direction was what we needed to turn the tide!

When your hands are permanently stained like ours, ya know ya made it 🖒

[@oldfarmer4700]

Pulling your guts out one day will catch up to you. I'm not a big guy either and worked pulling on pipe for almost 30 years. When I turned 50 I really started feeling the cost. A triple hernia, shoulders are shot now and lifting and pulling on something almost makes me piss my pants. When I was young I could wad myself up in a tight spot and pull and push until I got the job done but now the old Charlie horses will wad me up and I can't hardly unfold myself. Talk about hurt, it take days to get over that shit. All the respect for the guy that gets their hands dirty and leaks a little red stuff on about every job,

[@outlaw7x77]

Ain't that all the truth. I'm 58 years old and don't I know it.

[@bundylovess]

That’s some hard yakka right there man good job warren big thumbs up 👍 mate

[@bobv8219]

Couch mechanic here , ugh you should've done@$##%^&#@#$^*[&%%:. Just what your doin Warren, keep up the great work.

[@febbral]

Warren, you definitely earning your money on this job, you have to have quite a bit of mental control to do a job like this, the obstical of hoses and super tight bolts in your way, a nightmare to say the least.

[@heavydutyrepair64]

Man you're up to 26000 subscribers man that's good, I love your videos

[@julianreid8179]

neat trick set the torque wrench high enough to keep the wrench from being ruined by exceeding the pre set limit..

[@scruffy6151]

That's why you make the big bucks lol. Just one more hose and you can get to the bolt always something in the way.

[@navigatorx1013]

Seems like a good example of a job to start a "go fund me" for a hot water pressure washer. Before, during and after the work.

[@roberthowell932]

Have a 82. 410d I had a shop do the crowd cylinder. It's still after a year leaks. Plus eventually I need to redo all the bushings it's almost cheaper to buy my own lathe. I ordered bushings 2 years ago from broken tractor everything is made in the Czech Republic or turkey. Just to tell you.

[@noelalexisperez4890]

Am surprised Warren doesn't have the silver you tube button plaque yet.he earned that 15,000 or so subscribers ago.

[@markdobson8513]

Enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing.

[@dwsmith1429]

Just a heads up Warren but platt electric in k falls has great prices on knipex tools. I picked up a pair of 12 cobras for better than internet prices last week. Keep up the good work and thanks for the tips on hydraulic stuff

[@shawnvandenabeele8307]

Awesome video!thanks again for another. Keep them coming.

[@BarnyardEngineering]

That 710D is the special "stand up desk" edition.

[@quicklandscapingllc843]

Your the best! That is for sure !

[@dcw1540]

Good job now you can let that mud whistle tighten back up. Thanks again

[@uggy7]

Could you have used the boom on the work truck to lift the backhoe out of the way? I'm just city folk who loves watching mechanical stuff but couldn't screw in a light bulb lol. Thanks for all your videos. 👍👍🐕🇨🇦

[@PaulHigginbothamSr]

just thought of something. The wrecker company could go get the equipment now. Take it to their yard. Then the trucking dispatch could send the truck to the yard, might work better.

[@kevinmurphy4652]

Love those plug kits just don’t forget to take them out can reek some serious hell lol

[@kevinmurphy4652]

Motion industries is the shit they have saved my ass a lot with what they have on the shelf and very knowledgeable

[@robjon49]

Obviously you have it figured out but is it ever a challenge to put the hyd hoses back in proper location. I usually use colored wire or zip ties. You are one tenacious individual. Greetings from the northeast.

[@Briceland107]

I love how people finally decide to fix stuff when they go sell it lol

[@MrPaul1f]

I think this one was bought cheap at auction, but usually your right!

[@jasonmushersee]

you've got to fab up a 1" breaker bar. grind down your biggest hitch pin to a square weld that to 6ft long flat stock or broken disk shaft/round bale tooth. can also weld the sockets to the flat stock permanent

[@cobrasvt347]

Dang. Suction control valve failed to where it wouldn't run at all. That's pretty crazy usually just act up while running or lack power. Nutz !

[@eazzzye2003]

"Mudwhistle" had me dead. LMAO!

[@lml6.653]

I guess first crack all the bolts loose so you can swing the boom out of the way then disconect the lines to the cylenders.... man id be cussing up a storm hahaha

[@johnnyholland8765]

Dude...... Do you ever get tired? I'll give it to you on one thing if you make up your mind something has got to "come out" then by . Seems he always needs a little helpgolly IT COMES OUT! Always amazes me your dogs just hop right in the truck except for Oscar he always seems to need a little help. He has the heart just not the legs......

[@julianreid8179]

I saw a military surpl;uis electric impact. 1 inch drive olive green color with reduction gear. turned a bit slow but with a big hammer had tons of torque. you know a extra handel with 110 power req,

[@browninp55]

Wear your safety glasses and remember safety first...

[@julianreid8179]

saw a 1 inch drive electric impact olive green maybe military type. more harder impacts? not saying yopu should have one just wondering wich has more force..

[@waynehams9708]

Just wondering why you just didn't pull the rod out and leave the barrel in there

[@leswarren2249]

Is there any way to repack in place. You can swing boom from side to side and get them apart. Will have to do them one at a time..

[@gotany1]

After a mudwhistle "more tea vicar"

[@donald1056]

1 new rubber on the left rear - where those gloves - how much did that extended handle ratchet cost - you got Oscar on guard dog duty I see - not too damn much room to work

[@lordhoho1]

I suggested this before so im going to bother you again. Get a large plastic bin from walmart and keep it near so that you can drop all the tools you use and parts you remove into it. the parts stay clean and in one place as do the tools and when you are finished the tools can easily be put back into the truck bins.

[@eddygoodwin7089]

could you use the hoist on the truck to swing that boom out of the way to get to the bolts?

[@shneorl]

Walking genius

[@Briceland107]

I have a question. once you have the pin out of the cylinder to the boom can't you swing the boom side to side out of the way or not?

[@suzylarry1]

How do you get those coveralls clean?

[@johnnyholland8765]

Edit.... I screwed up on that. I am half asleep.

[@DoRC]

Give up on the gloves?

[@rharris5811]

Those bolts must of had a shitload of lock tight on them.

[@noelhohberger1188]

Still a decent looking machine. Pain in the ass though

[@t.c.bowling1934]

The center pivot pin on my 310E will not take grease. Can you removed the pin to clean it up to accept grease? I wasn't sure if I would get into trouble by dropping the pin.

[@CaptKirk1701]

Victory!

[@PaulHigginbothamSr]

all ya'll have to do with that auction tractor back east, is get ahold of a truck dispatcher, a heavy lift truck dispatcher, and the trucker will drive it on the truck himself, IF IT RUNS. EASY PEASY.

[@westerntruckandtractorrepa1353]

Doesn't run.

[@PaulHigginbothamSr]

@@westerntruckandtractorrepa1353 SO here is the process. the owner, with his credit card in his hand, calls a heavy lift truck dispatcher. He gets a time for when a truck is available at the location. He gets an exact time the trucker will arrive. He then calls the local area wrecker towing company, and they have to get to the auction site, when the trucker arrives. the wrecker tows the equipment on to the truck, but he must pay all this before hand.

[@conantdog]

All dogs aboard 👍😁

[@shneorl]

When you pull the weel hose pleae make a video if you can thanks

[@sliderinc1]

How do you take the end caps off not the rod end the other end

[@mandy8211]

Mudd whistle!! havent heard that in a long time. Hahahaha. I just broke my reader glasses and am glueing them back together with J B weld. Gotta put another glow plug relay in the 95 ford.

[@julianreid8179]

plan b more leverage??

[@stevenherner298]

Hook bucket onto your truck crane god bless

[@riteshpahladsingh3819]

Is this model the biggest of all backhoes?

[@richardbohlingsr3490]

You didn't eat enough Wheaties this morning.

[@alphonsotate2982]

Swing the boom over out of the way before you un hook the pin .

[@westerntruckandtractorrepa1353]

Watch the entire video.

[@steveculbertson9362]

Drying up swing cylinders won't add value to the sale of this unit, but hell you charged a couple thousand for the repair so all is good...right !!

[@westerntruckandtractorrepa1353]

Everybody should just do shit for free and we would be in commie utopia right?

[@davidhudson5452]

Yeps

[@workerbeast]

"mud whistle". Is that a technical term?

[@georgebonney90]

👍

[@blake9361]

well warren if it was easy the women would be doing it
