450C Track Loader, Stupid Question

Post by Claus » Thu Nov 09, 2017 12:01 pm

My machine is not at home right now, I was looking to replace all the knobs on top of the levers. What thread are the knobs? Thanks.

Coarse thread and if memory serves they are 3/8". You can always get a known thread nut (3/8 NC) and try it on the shaft.I have dealt with shafts with either the treads cut off or obliterated and had good luck using a high strength silicone adhesive. It will hold during use and knob can still be removed with firm twisting at a later date as needed. Don't use JB Weld as once it is on it ain't coming off again.
