[b]Nice clean machine you have there. Based on my limited experience, these are what you should look for when buying a wheel loader: 1. Centerpins: This is the joint that between the front and back half. where the loader twist and turn. they tend to wear out over time. 2. Engine Blowback: Happens when the cylinder linings are wearing out. Lesser engine output 3. Boom pins: The joints between the bucket and the arm that raises it. its wears out over time. 4. Hydraulics: The bucket is raised by hydraulics. Hydraulic pump should be examined. 5. Injector/Injector pump: Supply fuel to the injectors. Proper checks in advisable If you are buying an equipment like this, the best thing is to get a CAT certified technician to do all the aforementioned inspection for you. Typically runs around $500 thereabout and can take anywhere between 2 to 4 hrs to complete. It is a safer bet that trying to guess by yourself. Don't skimp on the cost especially if you have decided to get the machine. Spending $500 to guard against a $20,000 plus investment is worth it if you ask me. The technician will also do a oil sample on the transmission to determine if its in good condition or not. You don't wanna be in nigeria with a loader and a broken transmission in 3 months. That $500 investment will pale in comparison with what it will cost you. The good thing is that you can find the closest CAT dealer in the area you wanna buy the equipment and see if they can do the inspection for you. They will have a reference if they cannot. Good luck out there. [/b] 1 Like |
