Hi Sean, I was a contractor 45 years ago and had three of these road registered. (Melbourne Australia)

Lovely! Just one thing to note, it isn't recommended that you stop the engine using the decompression lever, as it can cause engine damage. Stop the engine using the fuel rack/governor arm, moving it away from the flywheel end (so towards the front of the dumper) and hold it in that position until the engine has stopped turning over. Looking forward to more updates! Doug

High thats a nice looking dumper, If that green brake fluid top is original to the machine, it usually means it doesn't take regular brake fluid like dot 4 it probably says mineral type fluid only. If it should have mineral fluid, regular ruins all the rubber seals. Somebody did that to my JCB 3c mk3 here in Canada before I got it, luckily i flushed it out put the right stuff in and the brakes started working again after bleeding. it only drips once in a while and never goes on the road so i've topped it up once a year for the last 8 years after the winter storing in a snow drift. If I ever restore it the seals will have to come from the U.K, it's a rarer machine here with not many parts around JCB even disown it here ! If there is any doubt about the fluid type do what every new owner should do Buy an operator/service manual if it didn't have one,or find out online if you can.. Yeah I know it's a guy thing not to do crazy things like that I had a hard time finding the original digger one, and I still see people arguing genuine JCB book info on forums L.O.L. Take care.

Thanks Andris, I’ve been flat out with work trying to save for this house. Was watching your video last night on the dozer looks like some machine! Was a close one when you started sliding, I’m sure your heart was in your mouth for a second 😅 best of luck

At the 12:00 mark you add DOT 4 brake fluid... I hope this has not made it as far as the axle as it will destroy it. The brake system on these uses hydraulic oil, NOT NOT, brake fluid..

How many gears foward and reverse what size rims and tires how many gallons feul and how many hours will it run working and whats a good fast cruzing speed as well? Thanks for the video i wish i could find one here in the united states.

@seandoran6809 6 ай бұрын

It’s 3 gears forwards, 1 gear reverse. I’d say the top speeds about 25/30. It’s only a small tank holds about a gallon but seems to last a long time. Hope that helps, thanks for watching 👍
