I’d love to see a follow up video on how you like the machine so far after using it + direct comparison vs your old Kubota - did you trade it in or kept as a second machine?
@ArborSharpTreeCare8 күн бұрын
thank you for sharing! I have a pretty similar 200 XP, trying to get the feed torque arm detached from the motor but stumped how to remove the cylindrical piece (coupler?) from it, I removed the bolt that, I think, is similar to the tapered pin that you removed. I call them shear bolts for the fact that it will shear instead of messing up the feed roller shaft.

Keep the videos coming! How do you like the 1050 compared to the scl1000? Pros and cons of each?
@tomhendricks31617 күн бұрын
Verses the scl1000, the 1050 has more HP, is more stable (side to side), has a metal hood, has less electronics, but it doesn't balance load as well (always on front few inches of track) it's aggressive factory tracks rip up lawns, it's controls are harder to master Probably the most telling is that the scl1000 is the employees' favorite, it goes out every day by choice. The 1050 only goes out when needed or grading jobs. I have a video coming with both lifting logs. Should be out soon Thanks for the comment. Tom

Glad you were able to find the date, I personally enjoy it when I'm able to find some definitive information, facts, or interesting details about a vintage or antique item that I own, regardless if it's in the form of a date stamp, manufacturers manual, a magazine ad or article from the same time period that the item was made. In my opinion I believe that knowing this kind of information let's a person have more appreciation for an item, value the great craftsmanship, and marvel at how well something was was made to be able to last this long but still work perfectly fine and continue working for year's/decades to come. I actually have the same exact kind, 1780 tradesman Wilton but it might have been a Snap-On, technically it's exactly the same vise, same manufacturer (Wilton) only thing different is the sticker nameplate and a change of color. Mine says made in USA, its unfortunate that they don't make the tradesman vise in USA anymore, only overseas now, probably Taiwan or China and that's a shame. Anyways cheers 🍻 enjoy the awesome 😂vise.
@tomhendricks316Ай бұрын
I totally agree. I have a southbend lathe that I think was made in the late 30s or early 40s. I also found what I think to be a date on the handle end of the leadscrew. Maybe you have one there to. Thanks for the info Tom
@mr.tactown.253Ай бұрын
@@tomhendricks316 Yeah no problem, there's usually a date on the lead screw head part where the handle or tommy bar goes in. Not sure if all Wiltons have it but the 1780 tradesman and 745 mechanics vise i have both do. Just finished painting mine today, prep work took forever.

Pull the Wilton 1780 vise jaw all the way out and flip it over, there will be a date stamped on the key slide, its the thing that keeps the vise jaw from rotating.

Jankiest controllers I’ve ever seen though. Kubota usually does a good job with their machines….but for $50,000 dollars (which is outrageous) I expect better quality on some of the parts on these things. Those controllers are like their #1 failure too. Most people end up doing their own wiring and modification on them or else it’s just a constant cycle of replacing those controllers.

I installed a heim joint on my F150 clutch push rod and I eventually took it out and went back to the original set-up. All heim joints squeak unless you lubricate them every 6 months. Also, before you convert to a heim joint you have to be sure you have an all metal pushrod as many of them are half plastic and will just snap off if you try to screw a heim joint on them. In addition, the set screw holding the joint on the pushrod worked loose and disappeared. I bought a new clutch lever and clutch master cylinder on Amazon for a total of about $50 and put it back to the factory setup with the plastic clip. I have 580,000 on my truck and I have only replaced the clip twice so far so I can live with that.
