Reply To: Backhoe Contribution – Blanchsb – Exterior Loader Arms and Interior Chair
I don’t envy you @blanchsb , these loader arms are more complex than any of us could of imagined.
I had a look, here’s what I think.
1a. At first glance I thought there was a spacer here but Looking closer at this angle I thought I could see the hole is misaligned and a zoomed view at 1b. shows these parts of the arm are either side of the one larger piece on the bucket.
2. Not sure why I highlighted this now. I think the part shown in red on your demo’s is not as bent as you have it. I’m sure from another view this part is not centred between the top part but set more to one side. I cant find the image I saw it on.
3. This hole bracket thing is protruding into the piston. This is the only image I have seen it on, not sure what I does or it’s relevance, maybe where the pin goes when the safety brace is in use. Not sure if you got it set on top but looks like it should be to the side more but not really sure.
Found it:
This image shows the RED part to the side with a spacer the other.
I know it is not showing the whole part but the process of thought says to me its the next part down the arm from the piston.
So looking now with that over slightly and attached to just one part of the bucket should solve that problem.
As I look at this image more, that position sensor thing looks like its attached with basic square metal tube. Seems out of place on this Dog.
