hey all, I purchased a 1967 580 ck backhoe with some neglect issues primarily a stuck clutch. the previous owner had inherited the beast stuck clutch and all and had made no attempts to free up. it was move-able by rocking it with the shuttle easy back and forth then dropping revs and slipping into gear. however i am a needy sort of person and decided to free the clutch. i could see through the sight hole on the rt side of the bell housing that it is a dry clutch and it has a significant amount of pad.the pressure plate moves so mechanically speaking i had two options to free the disk. 1 try to pry it free with a long putty knife probably what i should have done, or put it up on the riggers in 2nd gear and break free by dropping on to the spinning wheels. So opting for the latter and only doing it once mind you. I now have no movement in any gear or shuttle position. to get back to the seemingly quick fix, the engine stalled there was no loud bang or movement of the shuttle lever or shift stick. i did have the clutch pedal blocked in a depressed position and to my knowledge the disk is still stuck to the flywheel. I have all the manuals parts,service and owners. if anyone has any experience with that mouthful I would be gratefuland thanks for letting me bend your ear.

It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
