Default Re: 990 cat loader (Earl Shiebbed)

Really Steve? Running without a filtration system? the 990 is a tough machine but, not that tough
How long did it run before big trouble? Scale it up and probably as long as the real thing would last with no filters
Thanks for posting pics from the meet...by the way....looks like I need to send ya a new CAT hat for Xmas.

well it turns out the valves are the culprit I knew it would happen steel wearing on aluminum with piss poor tolerances . at least the filter will catch the particles till I get my valves finished . I also turned the pump around so the belt is at the back of the machine as opposed to between the main motor and pump motor . should be easier to change the belt now . No , no maple leaf on our hats here .

Glad to hear she's back up and running. You must have brought it to a CAT dealer to get such a quick repair time
