WILL IT START? Buying a cheap forgotten backhoe Case 580 construction king

Buying a 800$ backhoe sight unseen. Will it start and run?
JESUS IS KING 👑

[@adamroof9460]

You should have done this not that. This way not that way. Up and down do not equal even. Lol at the comments. Let this kid make fun videos. 😎👍 83 Subaru was my first victim. Wrenched tanks in army after. They made me a recovery specialist instead. All gotta learn. All gotta have a GOOD TIME learnin 🕺🏻

[@BradenBuildz]

This guy gets it

[@Poppy-ln9fh]

When you load the backhoe on the trailer don't have your front bucket so high. Lower it to change the center of gravity so the tractor doesn't bounce all over the place. There's a lot of weight on the back end. Good luck with your new adventure.

[@dr_benson1284]

yeah learned that the hard way when i went to pick up an old Ford Industrial Backhoe, sucker weighs like 15k lbs

[@dustinhanoum]

Yes very dangerous. Good thing no one was hurt.

[@BradenBuildz]

Just trying to get the tractor on the trailer. Some of you act like I should do a complete restoration on it in the field🤦🏻🤦🏻

[@handyscapersllc]

Next time tap on the starter with the handle of the screw driver

[@RCRWJR]

Should have did a full frame off restoration and overhaul in that field There's Only 2 hundred hounds going crazy barking and freaking out

[@BradenBuildz]

@@RCRWJR should have torqued every single bolt down to spec. Should have sandblasted it primed it and painted it. 🤦🏻 I’m such an idiot

[@GuildOfCalamity]

Love the "will it run" videos. It's always entertaining to watch someone more motivated than me torture themselves with an old rig that just needs some TLC. And can someone please buy this poor man a funnel?

[@scottfoster2487]

Be dam carefull to never shut the motor off with out letting her idle down,you can snap the cam shaft instantly,I know we had ours do it three times,found shutting off the fuel slowly helps. The 580 is a dam good machine but it does have weaknesses,front loader arms tend to crack and motor to transmission bolts fall out, regular inspections f parts is must do. Should do you fine if you pay attention and maintain it. Parts are available,Case tractor s are more common on the east coast of this vintage.

[@BradenBuildz]

Thanks for the tip

[@SuperTruck1]

Thank you for the heads up...I just bought one myself yesterday here in Cali 👍

[@SetitesTechAdventures]

Man I wish I could find a deal like this. I'd drop everything to go grab it.

[@clinthowe7629]

case made a great backhoe, that’s a gem, you can make a good dollar with one of those. digging tree holes, swimming pools, septics, footings, loading trucks. yeah!

[@1985wvufan]

And finally, when I was your age I ran one of these on my first job. My first job off the farm. And it was this exact machine, except it was only a couple of years old.

[@eddygoodwin7089]

I have this same machine, if your only using it every once in a while there is a Lucas additive that conditions the seals for the hydraulics. I used a gallon of it one time and it didn’t leak oil out for 7 months. It would usually run it out in less than a week.

[@mrjoehimself]

This was so enjoyable to watch! Very well done, fun and educational, I love it!

[@cajuncuriosity3067]

Old people: "Kids these days need to get off their phones and work like we used to!" Also old people: "why are you doing everything wrong?"

Lol seriously

[@3sparewashers-lg3gf]

Some old timers forget they were in that spot too once

[@1985wvufan]

Just bought one of these, it is a 1974. The one I bought is working, just did 1.5 hours of dirt moving to check it out before I bought it. Great machine, way, way, way more than those chinese mini excavators.

[@jakealter5504]

It looks nothing like my dad’s backhoe and my dad’s is a 1974 Case 580B

[@thecollectoronthecorner7061]

Just Subscribed. I ran 580 case backhoes a lot. The foot swing got to be too much for my ageing knees. When I bought a backhoe I got one with wobble stick controls.

[@jimthode]

Nice Backhoe! Note at 11:45 you have to have power to the large terminal on the starter for the starter to spin. With only power to the small start terminal it will only pull the solenoid in but not power the motor.

[@BradenBuildz]

Thanks

[@swampfoxo]

@@BradenBuildz duhhhhhh

[@richardjanssen3183]

Good machine!

[@warrenrule2003]

Another way to keep the front end on the ground with these older machines is scoop about a half a bucket of dirt into the front bucket--balances it out...

[@BradenBuildz]

I didn’t know any better. Never had one. But I was just trying to be able to see the trailer I was driving up on. Shoulda had it lower when I drove off tho.

[@codycarpenter6000]

Would love to see an update on the tractor

[@BradenBuildz]

I’ve been using it a lot

[@3sparewashers-lg3gf]

You didn’t have to replace that starter, just gotta put the smoke back in it, that’s what makes em run! lol

[@Thebombonlyone]

Man it feels nice to see someone around my age fixing and messing with backhoes and skid steer. I just turned 25 and last year I had got me a 1983 JCB 1400B backhoe for my first piece of equipment. Definitely needed work but she's coming on by! Next thing is a skidsteer for me. It was hell getting it back home, i had to buy a whole 20ft trailer, fix it up and restore just to be able to get the backhoe home. Also the tires om the backhoe were no good so just imagine, it was like hell getting it home lol. It was spraying hydraulic fluid like crazy lol

[@BradenBuildz]

Where you from. My next vid is gonna be backhoe related

[@gordonagent7037]

Heck that was some effort, well done

[@handyscapersllc]

Well you made it, congrats

[@pedrodaterraplanagemcosta719]

Hi brow, i from Brazil and i have the same machine, just the age diferent. I also had a machine like that. Mine was a 580H year 1996. An excellent machine, used for services in civil construction. It was like that, fixed a problem, two new problems appeared kkkkk

[@jd450edutze2]

It’s A power shuttle I just got a case 580B a 73 I have problems it move really slow because it got rain in it so it will have a torge converter make sure it don’t got water in it

Hydrostatic steering man. If it loses prime the wheel will spin.

[@outdoorcountry7148]

[@MyLifeThai371]

I bought this exact same backhoe, except mine has a cab. It was a heavy load. My cummins diesel was smoking going up hills with my 34 ft. triple axle. I paid $7500. Mine leaks all the hyd. oil out every day(seal betweent he clutch and transmission is bad).

[@JP-ou8yb]

Put a chain from the backhoe to the upward front bucket then lower the bucket to raise the backhoe.

What a genius idea. I’ll have to try that on the next one.

[@mikep60]

@@BradenBuildz lmao it happens. Glad to see she lit off. Restoring that will be a booger I'm sure. But good engine good tranny you got it licked

[@mikesmith8090]

How neither of you guys were hurt during the making of this video surprises me greatly. Leaving chains just drugging behind the machine could have messed up a lot of stuff. Glad you got in running but rushing w/o thinking ahead is never a good idea, ever! Good luck guys.

[@BradenBuildz]

That chain coulda hooked on something and flipped the whole tractor 😨😨

[@angelgigabyte]

To shut it off pull the fuel shutoff on the left side console by the steering wheel. That will kill the fuel to the carb. It should be pushed in to start out to stop.

[@BradenBuildz]

It won’t pull out is the problem🤨

[@angelgigabyte]

@@BradenBuildz trace the rod all the way to the carb/fuel pump. Spray some WD40 on the connection where it attaches to the pump that should free it up. Just some friendly advice keep your bucket low when going uphill or loading the tractor. I have a 580b and they are ass heavy. The backhoe is the heaviest part on the tractor and the tractor will do a unwanted wheelie with the quickness.

[@BradenBuildz]

Thank you. I actually wheelied it yesterday on accident 😂. Had the bucket high because I couldn’t really see he trailer other wise and when I had it down I was afraid of hitting the trailer. The valve at the pump is fine it’s the knob itself that won’t pull.

[@blakeskullerud4915]

The engine sounds strong on that thing. How's it going? I'm slowly rebuilding a 580B. Just pulled the back hoe control valve block out of it to rebuild It's heavy!.

[@BradenBuildz]

Runs good as new. Little white smoke every once in awhile. It fired up after 2 rotations. How hard is it to get that valve out

[@bennett3848]

My dad had one of these 30 years ago it was old and wore out then

[@asabryan579]

From my experience with engines the worst thing you can do is put a Fram filter on.. they come apart and clogg everything.

[@BradenBuildz]

Agree I don’t like them either but that’s all I had at disposal

[@3sparewashers-lg3gf]

I used em for years and never had a problem. Must be luck or something, IDK.

[@jeffbostwick8037]

Just looked it up and the gas version is 3,638 lbs and the diesel is 3,836 lbs.

[@BradenBuildz]

That’s wayyy off. Look in the forums. Not google awnsers

[@BradenBuildz]

1968 case 580ck backhoe is about 8600-9500 pounds

[@southernman7692]

if tha price is right i will buy it from u

[@nathank7239]

Don't give it so much either. That is why the engine would not turn very fast. Just give it a little shot.

[@BradenBuildz]

It’s because it was filled with oil. The owner filled it with oil so it wouldn’t lock up

[@compirate]

Where do you get away with tires sticking out from the fenders so much (on your car)?

[@BradenBuildz]

I live in Kentucky

[@compirate]

And why don't people who do this stuff more than once get a remote start button?

[@BradenBuildz]

@@compirate I have one I bought from oreilly but half the time it doesn’t work

I have a 1980 580c and it is a good tractor but the forward and reverse won't stay in forward it creeps back into reverse, any one had this and if so how do you fix it?

Maybe a bungy cord

How much did you give for it?

Being able to see the trailer was more important

[@Ryzmuhh]

29:44 if that light holder wasn’t on the trailer this wouldn’t went so bad, the guy video should definitely be lining him up while driving off a trailer

Reason it went off that way is bc tire was flat and it pulled that direction

[@devingrams4008]

Idk if i should be learning or be the teacher. I've seen so much stuff that this kid did that one could've got hit hurt or injured. Seen him use a jeep to try to pull the bum in and didn't think to block his tires up. He them spins his tires and digs up tire ruts. Like come on have respect for other people's property. This generation is going to hell in a hand basket. 🤦‍♂️

[@BradenBuildz]

I can tell your really old by your comment. I promise you the jeep wasn’t going any further than the tractor And the owner of the property did not care what I did. He just wanted it gone. Quit being so judge mental and grumpy This isn’t sold boring “how to” video we like to have fun here

[@devingrams4008]

@@BradenBuildz Actually I am 19 and have common sense. You may say that your jeep wasn't going anywhere, but never say never. That winch cable could've broke and swung and hit someone. It's not about being old or any of that. It's about being safe. One wrong move you can lose a hand, leg, finger, etc... I am not trying to start anything, but we all have family, that love us, and we have loved one that want to see us. It's like you can think ahead and try to prevent that stuff from happening.

[@BradenBuildz]

Your common sense should tell you that a 12klb winch is of very low risk of breaking pulling no more than 2500lbs. You don’t go commenting on peoples videos saying they’re going to hell for spinning their tires in gravel😂. That’s not even how salvation works anyway. Go read your Bible, Saul killed Christian’s and ended up being a prophet for god. You should get out more. Mommy can’t protect you from everything. I’ll get up out of bed every morning risking my life away getting stuff done and having fun. While you will sit on your phone judging people on the internet all day, too scared to even get out of bed bc you might trip and fall and die. Have fun buddy.

This recording shows that he knows nothing. I thing the first thing g he shoulda done was turn the flywheel in the front under the fan. Then make sure u know how to shut it down. The transmission is a power shuttle not suppose to be full. A fire extinguisher woulda been nice. Its a case 580 b . He picked up the outriggers on the back before li king the rear boom. Then he doesn't know about the steering. He talks about someone else's stuff not knowing he is showing his ignorance. Hd coulda used the rear bucket to push it forward. Then he sounds crazy when he says the steering is good. This is not a video to watch and learn from

[@BradenBuildz]

😂 It’s a 580ck There is no “flywheel” in front of engine Bell housing IS supposed to be full of oil on this machine. The rear boom clearly would not operate. This is a will it start video not a how to video.

@@BradenBuildz you are correct. How crazy of me. The hydraulic pump is driven off the crank

Mine has a plug 6 inch behind the starter but my point was to manually spin it over before trying the starter
