I like the way you think and fix things by yourself you didn’t have to drop your truck off and pick it back up ,lost time you just have to be polite with the service guy and he’ll tell you anything you need ,happy to help
What I use on parts like that is called Dielectric grease. It will protect the metal parts and the rubber parts. I also use it on o-rings. The brand I use is DOW Corning but there are many others.
I love your videos and your energy. You are real, down to earth, and authentic. I love the bit of personality you put in your videos. I'm saving up to buy a hooklift truck and bins one day to go out on my own. I know they are expensive but I figure if I am going to start a dumpster rental business might as well start with the right equipment. In your experience, is Stellar vs. Palfinger better than the other? Would you even consider Swaploader? From what I can tell, Palfinger and Stellar are a little more robust. I'm looking at starting on an F600 platform but would also consider Isuzu FTR or Hino 338 (de-rated). Ideally something under 26k.
great video, the stuff the guy likely put on the washer is a special compound, not just a lubricant!- this is a jely which, in electronics terms helps to cool down the component, aka give heat in the solenoids, etc. a place to go (the metal in the valve, ignition system {body of the distributor}), to wick away the heat, saving any rubber/plastic in the device from melting, as some of this stuff has a lot of power (AMPS, NOT volts!!) going through them, esp. starter motor, or other motor control cables, or lights hence the 15/20A fuses in the fuse box!!
@@LaRobertos Yes, it is, But hydraulic valves and sensors (temp. and pressure) are connected to the electronic switches, and the main engine, or other management controller ( sets the idle speed to account for pump load, so the engine doesn't stall, or makes it throttle down to idle, as in a crane, to save fuel) so these are electronic in nature, also they sometimes ground the circuit through the component itself, so need this lube to conduct the electricity to the body/ chassis of the truck so the circuit is completed (can't go through any Painted surface, or have an air gap, it doesn't conduct well).

I'm building my first hooklift. They asked if I want levers or pushbutton. What's your opinion?
Levers I like better

Yes any unit would be a good fit
Keep the videos coming brother ! 😎❤
Thanks brotha

Sounds like a special lube for electric components

Arent hooklifts one of the more uncommon roll of mechanisms?
more people suing them now
👍
