Default Re: Great Dane excavating co.

The Firgelli linear actuator in that IzzyBuilt dozer, it doesn't take much force to move the blade up & down, free wheeling the actuator. I didn't notice before installation what ratio it was. I see your actuator there is the 150:1, that might be too high & not free wheel. I doubt you'd injure the actuator anyway.

Say, did you send your email to Firgelli for round bodied actuators? Maybe we'll see those in the near future & something like that would look perfect on your model.

Do you have any trouble those push lock fittings? I have one on the 4206 that I can't get to quit dripping and now I see on this hoe I'm building that one out three of them tank fittings is dripping too. Just push the hose in & pull back to lock it tight, right?
