Ps there is a hydraulic suction screen under seat under a 1 inch hex nut. Right before charge pump . Needs to be cleaned regularly. Also keep cover over it since rain gets in hydraulic fluid from chain case cover cracks etc.

Foot controls are my jam! Great job, though

I have a 1994 785 6000 hours for 13 years have a 4n1 clam bucket . Never breaks down . Awesome machine no high tech .I sold off my new Bobcrap pos T300 and kept this old reliable cheap machine. To find a Perkins 4.203 or any used Diesil call Old Forge Power in Pennsylvania has thousands of used engines machines.They are on you tube

Great video. Great deal. Nice hit with the Mennonites. I have one. Ford diesel. Bought used with 4000 hrs. Seven years no real issues. Things a beast. Just diagnosed with zero compression in two cylinders. Gonna yank the engine and see what’s what’s. Probably (hopefully)going to have my rebuilt. Don’t really want to ride out to Mennonite Country and then swap out parts and modify sheet metal. Really nice job on the vid and the machine. Good luck with whatever you do with it.

Hello, when you bought this New Holland L785, the wheels were blocked due to the lack of engine, could they rotate freely? Do you know how to unlock the wheels without an engine?

You could crack the wheel motor hydraulic lines, this one rolled slowly with resistance, some won’t

@@StanwoodStudios Thank you for your answer, in a few days I will be driving a trailer to New Holland L785 and I don't know if the wheels will rotate. Do you have the user manual for this charger? If the wheels are locked, should the cables at the hydraulic pump be loosened? I'm asking because I'm new to hydraulic drives. I would be grateful for any tips, as I mentioned, the machine does not have an engine.
