I found a water leak at the drain spout but cannot get to it without tilting the cab away from the engine area. Is that difficult to do? How do you go about it? It seems everything around the engine is impossible to get at. I hope it is not too difficult to lift the cab foreward and open up that area to work on it. I wonder also where you can get a service manual and how much they cost? Has anybody here done this before? I would love to hear from you if you have any experience you can share. Thanks!

I've got an LS190 never tilted the cab but do have manuals. The procedure for cab tipping is in the Owner's Manual. There is a good amount of disconnecting of various wires, the airbreather, etc. I wouldn't try it without the step by step instructions in the Operator's Manual. I don't think you'll have much trouble locating an Operator's Manual for your machine. I think I paid almost two-hundred bucks for the service manuals. The Operators Manual shouldn't cost more that twenty bucks.

Thanks, I have the operators manual and I see how to tilt the cab now. Problem is that it requires a "jack type" tool to do it right. I wonder what that will cost. I do need the service manual also, seems $200 is a lot for a book! I wonder if anyone has done it with a simple come-a-long or something home made. Also they show removing the wheels and blocking the frame up. I wonder why they go to that trouble? The hydrostat will not let the wheels move anyhow.

The manuals are worth it to me because my skidsteer loader is essiential to my livelihood. The cab tilting jack could be substituted for in a number of ways. The main thing is that you prop the tilted cab solidly. Jacking and blocking the skidsteer off the ground is an excellent safety measure because it makes the machine more stable. Most of the time when one tilts the cab it's done because of major problems and usually this involves disconnecting hydraulic lines. And don't kid yourself the skidsteer will roll down hill which can ruin your hydraulics. The rolling is slow, almost imperceptable but it will roll.

Just be very careful and take your time to make sure everything is solidly held in place. Most New Holland dealers have mechanics that will help you over the phone or you can go visit with them face to face. These dealer mechanics have really been helpful to me. And that same dealer mechanic has all those manuals on computer. I'd ask them to print out the pertainant material for what you want to do.

Thanks for the info. I never thought aabout the dealer haveing a manual on computer. Good idea. I hate to tilt the cab just to fix a small leak in a drain cock on the engine block. I might add stop leak instead. If I could see the tilting jack tool, I might be able to make one myself. According to the manual, tilting the cab on a ls-150 does not require disconnecting hydraulic or wiring. But the cab must not get loose on the way down or you could damage the lines I guess. I need to go to a dealer and talk to them and see what the manuals and the tool costs. My manual has an 800 phone number to call for manual prices but it might be for dealers only. I will try it first.
