Takeuchi TB260 ***CASE DRAIN KIT***

In my search for information on the Takeuchi TB260 factory case drain kit I didn't find very much. I hope this vid sheds some light on the kit for others.
I purchased at Global Machinery West [NOT SPONSORED!] and had them install. Thank you Global!
The Takeuchi Case Drain Kit # is TTB260CDKIT

So what is this extra line used for?

[@NuDig55]

Good question. The case drain is intended to act as an un-pressurized conduit from any hydraulic motor mounted at the end of the stick back to the equipment's hydraulic tank. Hydraulic motors, depending on type, will have hydraulic oil blow past the "cylinder" and end up in the case of the hydraulic motor. This conduit is intended to allow for a path back to the tank rather than get "stuck" in the motor and cause failure.

Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for watching!!!

@jdaino1 Hi, contact a Takeuchi dealer and have them hook you up. The kits are in the $2500 range. I had the dealer install as that was the best option for me at that time. Hope this helps. If the the northern California region I suggest contacting Global Machinery West @Globalmachinerywest
