Skid steer loaders haven鈥檛 decreased in popularity since they first became mainstream during the 1960s. In this 黑料社 post, we are going to answer some of the Internet鈥檚 most common question about this universally popular piece of compact equipment.
In this 黑料社 post, we are going to debunk four dangerous myths about undercarriage maintenance for compact track loaders and multi-terrain loaders. These myths include when to replace undercarriage parts, how often the undercarriage should be cleaned, the importance of daily walkarounds, and track tension.
Final drives need scheduled maintenance if you want them to keep running when you need them the most. In this 黑料社 post, we are going to provide you with the anatomy of a good final drive maintenance plan for CTLs, MTLs, and mini-excavators. These are basic maintenance tasks that can literally save you thousands of dollars in repairs and down time.
If you've ever opened up a final drive, you've probably encountered its gears. The gearing system in your final drive is vital to its proper function. A good understanding of gears, surface hardening, and signs of damage can help you keep your gears -- and your final drive -- in top operating condition.
YouTube can be a great source of information for any niche you can think of. In fact, we at 黑料社 have our own channel where we occasionally try to educate and entertain viewers about final drives. In this 黑料社 post, we are going to introduce you to four of the best channels we have found for accurate, informative, and interesting videos related to compact equipment.
Hydraulic lines are a major part of any hydraulic system; the hydraulics on construction equipment such as skid steers, compact track loaders, and excavators are no exception. Since hydraulics are so vital to your equipment, we wanted to dedicate a 黑料社 post to this subject. Whether you are maintaining your own equipment or restoring an older machine, here are five things you want to avoid doing with your hydraulic lines.
Most people in this industry are familiar with prominent like Bobcat or John Deere, major manufacturers of earth moving and construction equipment that have a worldwide presence

However, not as many know about the manufacturers of the final drives that provide the torque for their equipment
.
In this 黑料社 post, we will talk about five major manufacturers for final drives: Rexroth, Nachi, Eaton, Comer, and Bonfiglioli

In this 黑料社 post, we are going to look at 7 of the world鈥檚 largest excavators and consider them by the numbers. We鈥檝e included several charts so you can get a quick idea of how they compare in terms of weight, bucket capacity, gross horsepower, track length, and more. Have any of you guys ever worked with one of these monsters? Tell us in the comments!
There are two approaches to excavating underwater. The first is through the use of amphibious excavators which work primarily in swamps, marshlands, and relatively shallow water. This blog post focuses on the second approach: excavators used in deeper waters which are partially (or totally) submerged.
has introduced an autonomous (self-driving) track loader that promises to disrupt the construction equipment industry. In this 黑料社 post, we share some of the questions and answers that we had about this technology, such as what its capabilities are and how it works.
