Re: Steering brake adjustment rod
Thanks Jim. I wasn’t clear on “the pin dropping in” it helps when you’re looking at the right rod. I’m going to try again. I had it going both directions so I’m Getting there. I’ll pay better attention when I’m adjusting the yolk on the rod. Also,It seemed like when I was at the stage of backing the...

Re: 450 steering brake adjustment
Thanks Darryl, I’m going to go through the whole procedure again. The one part I wasn’t clear on, was step 5 where it says adjust the the yolk on rod til the pin drops in. The left side lever felt so much better before I started adjustments, I hope I can get back to that. It will have to wait til th...

450 steering brake adjustment
I went through the procedure step by step. I can now steer both directions. The problem is when I steer right it makes a rubbing type noise and loses power. Any suggestions?

Steering brake adjustment rod
I’m not sure where I’m looking, I’m at step 5 of my steering brake adjustment. It says to back off the lock nut on steering rod yolk, adjusting until the pin drops in. I’m looking but not seeing the “pin”

Re: 450? Or 450b?
Mornin. Yes the left track continued travelling. Ok so now I’m looking at a brake adjustment not a clutch. That sounds like a bonus. I will definitely be getting a service manual if this one doesn’t turn up. I was just hoping I could find it at my fingertips. I know it doesn’t help those that are in...

Re: 450? Or 450b?
No, I didn’t try to turn while under load but I’m going to go try again. The old timer I got the machine from is looking for a service manual so I’ll wait and see how that goes. In the meantime I’m hoping to pick a few brains and get me goin in the right direction and so far you,Bruce and Lavoy have...

Re: 450? Or 450b?
I haven’t tried to push against anything yet but I’ll try it. It seems to have a ton of power, should I put it in a higher gear to test this at low rpm? I’ve literally only operated it for about 200’ and loaded it on the trailer and unloaded it. =================================================== Ok...

Re: 450? Or 450b?
Thanks Jim. This is great information. I was given the machine in exchange for a small demolition job and I am very interested in getting it fully operational. At this point the only problem I can find is it not steering to the right, besides a few minor leaks. I’ll definitely be checking out the ma...

Re: 450? Or 450b?
Thanks for the great info. I just got the 450 a few days ago so lots of questions. At least now I know it’s a 1970, straight 450

Re: 450? Or 450b?
Thank you for your help. I’ll check it out.
Am I to assume that the engine is from a later model because of the higher serial numbers?

450? Or 450b?
