Re: Raise Bucket without running motor
Thanks all, I'll see how I go. Might be a while but will update thread after episode. BTW: Still smiling after slashing a paddock driving my old mate "Frank" - that's what I call my David Brown 880 Selectamatic. Slashed the paddock for no reason mind you just cause I could - and not just b...

Re: Engine type JCB3Mk111

Probably being too hopeful - I'm buying parts online from overseas supplier and train of thought being I could maybe pre order the parts so I'm good to go when I get the beast home.

Engine type JCB3Mk111
Hi guys, following on from my previous thread, after your previous help and some research I believe the engine to be the leyland and not a perkins that was also available in the machine at the time. I've attached some pics for any clarification they may be able to provide... I'm thinking of using th...

Re: Raise Bucket without running motor
thanks for replies - sorry fell asleep.....ideal but unfortunately there is no other working machine (or mate!) around to help me without significant expense due to farm distance.

Re: Raise Bucket without running motor
Hi Mrsmackpaul, Thanks. Sorry, I'm a little confused....what is "dome angle iron" ? Also, So just by releasing the right valve the rams will move even if the motor isn't pumping the fluid ?

Raise Bucket without running motor
Hi All, I'm about to embark on my first resto - a JCB 3c Mk3. First labour of love is to get it onto the truck from the farm it is coming from. Due to hydraulic leaks the buckets have dropped, I was after some advice to raise the front bucket and backhoe bucket so I can roll/winch it up the ramps an...

I'm not sure what I need really, but I suppose my the starting point is a definitive answer to which model and motor the unit is. Dad's lifted the follow...
