You will be ok I have one little bit different of a machine mine has a backhoe on the front I just spent 2 years trying to the get motor unstuck and I finally did get it Turing over it hss compression but the starter Is bad and it's like 700 bucks for a new one idk what to do but you have a good Machine
How about a great politician style answer? "That depends." I'd say in my mostly inexperienced opinion that a few jobs per year running buried electric/plumbing/telco-internet service a few hundred feet out to a barn workshop from a main house or aerial right of way would make you very, very glad you have this beast. I'm sure you have friends who would throw you a few bucks to rent it from you for their jobs as well.
I have $2,500 in a 3210d and it's got a backhoe 6 way blade and trencher its made way more than I paid for it. just be easy on driving them mine is shaft to chain and kinda pain in the a$$ .
As someone below says, ball pein hammer to cut those gasket holes and if your trying to get bearings onto a shaft heat the bearings in oil as you mentioned but also put the shaft in the freezer overnight, they will fall on then.
You should always have a air gap between your spark plug wires. It reduces heat and electric interference between them. I have been a mechanic for 40 years. Keep up the good work 👏
Yes it was well spent . It kept you off the couch. You also did your part in keeping the local economy thriving , buying parts etc .On top of all those positives ,uTube will send you a wee cheque to help out . All things said and done ,you will have a piece of equipment that regardless selling or working it may earn your time and investment back The only negative I see is you need to find it cover before the next project arrives
To line up sheaves like that, I like to use a laser pointer. Hold the round body of the laser pointer in one of the grooves and sweep it across the opposite groove. Makes it simple to line them up. The sheaves are often not exactly the same or have a bevil on one side so makes the straightedge method problematic to get it just right.
As a kid my dads did not have the shifter. we used a 2x4 to move the gear selector. backhoe, trencher and directional boring bars what a beast of a machine that was with the Deutz diesel
I see what I need to work one of these…hammers of various sizes, a grinder, definitely a carbide saws all, and most of all, the patience of Job. You do good work young man, and your persistence is legendary.
One of the first things I learnt about 4 cylinder engines is the firing order is usually 1,3,4,2, always worth a look when something does not sound right and your not 100% sure. Watching the cutting chain go on I was screaming your putting it on the wrong way round, obviously not loud enough. All in all a nice job, looking forward to its first trial.
They make a 3/8F x 1/4M reducing coupling you can get from grainger, McMaster Carr or a legitimate plumbing supply house for your sedimate bowl. Best of Luck..................
5/2/24. Ok JL, Hello from New Orleans area (~70° 2day); so just finished watching you rebuild of that (big) DitchWitch (model 40?). What a struggle you took on! Everything was busted & worn out.. but your persistence won out! Congradulations! Agree engine sounds kinda rough, carb air leak, timing a bit off a few degrees, coil intermittant, distributor (points/condensor) old...yup, you do have a 'punch list' to checkout. Loved seeing your wife help out & little boy (cute & sweet & temperment re: noise/vibration) supervising your work flow! Ok, bring us back after 'punch list' & show us how this 'big dog' trenches, augers slugh away & also how well yur front blade pushes...& covers over trenched dirt for a beautiful finish....oh yes, do get some funnels to pour that oil & fuel...no more making a mess on that garage floor! Stay safe & carry on!🔧⚙️🔩⛓️🪝🍺😊..also enjoy watching your rescue of Buldozers...just like Diesel Creek...guess you guys drink the same🍷🍷😁
Pretty sure you have the chain bar on upside down and the ends are swapped. The idler sprocket goes on top near the drive end instead of on the bottom near the driven end. The back of the chain should ride on the flat side of the bar and press against the dirt. That’s why the safety bar sits so far away from the chain right now. It’s that high to make room for the idler at the drive end. You’ll find out first time you try to trench with it. Keep up the good work
Those blades are awesome! I had a similar cylinder on my dovetail trailer that raises a ramp to the upper deck and the top pin was seized in there. I used a blade to cut both sides of the pin to be able to put a new cylinder on. I previously used one blade to demo all the cast iron pipe on my bathroom remodel at the suggestion of the guy at the plumbing supply. In the past a cast iron diamond blade would barely make it thru one cut.
Love your reaction to the Diablo saw blade. That IS what happens to a lot of people the first time they use a Diablo blade or drill bit. It is insane stuff. Worth every penny.
I payed for my old ditch witch in one job of 3000ft water line. You will have work if you want it. You know ever nut and bolt a you put new chian and roller it great put it to work. I think you will trench work. Great lock with your new machine. Master electrician mikef
you are a hero to me. it is so easy for me to think along with you. i believe that we could work together for years and never have an argument. best wishes
Really enjoyed the whole video. Watched it in three parts. I could use two hundred feet of trench for French drain. I really wish I could hire the trenching and not have to mess with renting the equipment. Heck, everyone I know wants to manage their yard run off with a buried drain pipe. Keep up the good work and take care of the family first. Kudos to your wife for lending a hand.

Great job! Looking at the black spark plugs (Gas) and the way it's running I think you shoul lower the carb floats about 1/16" to lean it out a little.
The gear box was the weak link in this models. There are allot of these abandoned or scrapped. That being said I enjoyed the video as I do all of your videos.
Something I learned about gaskets when I was in the Navy you get your gasket material place it over the piece you're going to make the gasket for and get a small I mean small ball peen hammer and make it with that it works just my experience in my opinion . I really do appreciate your content. Is that salt on your car.
But did back to live an old machine mate good on you for doing that can I say you and your wife are great together. And your Son is great all the best to you both
Two items Tyler. Try Aircraft Spruce for gasculator. Non certified aircraft type Foam cuts real easy with an electric carving knife.. You don't have to fight with it
Never press/pound a bearing on a shaft using the outer race…always the inner race. When you put that tube over the shaft to hammer the bearing on, it was on the outer race. With such, the force/shock is transferred from the outer race, through the rollers, and then to the inner race. It can imprint the rollers into the race and basically ruin a new bearing. Sane principle with pulling. Basic rule…never transfer the axial force to install or remove through the rollers…only on the races directly.(unless the bearings wont be reused). Glad to see you still taking on cool projects. Keep it up!
43:44 A couple of methods to remove the pin. Obviously a press would have helped but in the absence of that you need to drill through the centre to relieve the pressure. Alternative is an air hammer. Finally I would have sit the end of the cylinder in diesel over night before pounding on it.
Between you , Matt , Andrew and Hillybilly with his Crawler rebuild projects , TH-cam has some talents I will say in trying to figure out machinery. It ain't that bad at all watching you guys Win . Here I am with dozers and excavators waiting on me to fix as I enjoy y"all . That munchkin and Lisa' patience...Priceless ❤
It will be fine if you can scare up enough trencher work.. the important thing is to take really good care of it. Store it properly so it doesn’t turn to crap again. Must store it in doors
Awesome, great video, you are a great teacher and your explanation are awesome, i learn a lot, you are a great discovery on you tube channel, thank you for sharing , have a great week end 👍👍👍👍
Never in my life have i ever thought to myself "man, I'd love to watch a video of someone rebuilding a ditch witch." But damn that was a great/interesting video! 😂
Plug wires. I like to have more separation. Those are long runs, and I don't care how good the wire it is it will induce voltage into each other. Search zip tie sparkplug to get an idea how to accomplish better separation. Personally I'd shorten the wires too. Give the points a once over. I'm about 95% sure you have a carb issue. Make sure that float bowl setting isn't too high. The plugs you pulled out were indicative of a rich condition. You will get it sorted out. You will break even on your first job or two. So you will be just fine.
Yes I agree we all need to chip in and buy a few different types of funnels 😊. But he did do a great job on what he got done for now on his own ditch witch machine
Tyler, you're hittin' it too hard, man ! -- Even your hair's turning colors --- Take it easy, guy ! (I don't think those are blond hairs popping up ? 🤣🤣🤣 ) THANKS LISA !
you should put thrust bearing washers on the shifter handle bolt so you can lock it down. i would add guide plates also if the bolt doesn't tighten it enough.
I said the same thing about bolts these days, even some grade 8 bolts I could break with a 3/8 ratchet, I remember with a good six point socket on a even small grade 8 bolts would handle a breaker bar with an extension or even break 1/2 inch ratchet before the bolt snaps. Not today though.
I'm surprised you did not add in a flat bar of metal over there you did the welding on the frame by the drive clutch area to add in more support great video
First buy a funnel!!!! Think you did well at repairs! Check rental rates on trenchers. If a day rate divivd the rate by hrs. Used that will give you a starting hr. Rate to charge. Then can add 5% to that for parts etc. to make back your money all ready vested!
A hotplate from an old automatic drip coffee maker works good for heating bearings, races and gears and such for assembly. Also; be carefull not to advance the ignition timing too much,, those old Wisconsin engines are notorious for overheating and blowing up from doing that. In my opinion,, BRAVO $7500.00 is a reasonable investment in such a machine. Now,,, go give it some exercise!
Your Coil could possibly be the wrong size or just weak. My VH4D required a different Coil after I had installed the per Tronix electronic ign system on the motor. I bought the Flame Thrower 3 ohm Coil on it, also made by Per Tronix. Model # 40511. Bought mine at Amazon. In super ❄️🥶 MN winters it has always started right up and ran like a Demon 😈, a good Demon .. Wouldn't hurt to locate a new Rotor as yours could be going bad. Nice job too. Loved that your wife helped out with that heavy boom!💪💪💎. Soon your boy will need some type of rideable power wheel or maybe a farm tractor!😊
Interesting how it is so similar to a Wisconsin engine, but according to the tags obviously its not. Thanks for the video, gave me some ideas about installing an alternator on mine - I have a hydraulic pump coupled to what drives your alternator.
You mentioned you use to work at the plant that made the hose fittings - just curious who the company was and where was the plant location. I used to work for an Aeroquip plant that made high pressure hydraulic hose. I frequently visited the fitting plants.
Was it $7,500 well spent or a total waste of time and money? Can I ever make it back with this machine? Drop your answer below 👇👇👇
You will be ok I have one little bit different of a machine mine has a backhoe on the front I just spent 2 years trying to the get motor unstuck and I finally did get it Turing over it hss compression but the starter Is bad and it's like 700 bucks for a new one idk what to do but you have a good Machine
NEVER a waste of time if you have a need. $7500 for a working reliable trenches is cheap!

Indeed.
more than one....letś send him at least 5. (gas, diesel, transmission oil, hydraulic oil and engine oil)
I was like wtf
Add in an Air Hammer while we’re at it…
You guys know where the superthanks is be my guest 🤣🤣🤣
As someone below says, ball pein hammer to cut those gasket holes and if your trying to get bearings onto a shaft heat the bearings in oil as you mentioned but also put the shaft in the freezer overnight, they will fall on then.
Or use a ball bearing to punch the bolt holes. A small hammer would help to cut the inside and outside too.

Never press/pound a bearing on a shaft using the outer race…always the inner race. When you put that tube over the shaft to hammer the bearing on, it was on the outer race. With such, the force/shock is transferred from the outer race, through the rollers, and then to the inner race. It can imprint the rollers into the race and basically ruin a new bearing. Sane principle with pulling. Basic rule…never transfer the axial force to install or remove through the rollers…only on the races directly.(unless the bearings wont be reused). Glad to see you still taking on cool projects. Keep it up!

Your awsome job buddy i love the video i hate when people throw old machinary away just because its old
Your Coil could possibly be the wrong size or just weak. My VH4D required a different Coil after I had installed the per Tronix electronic ign system on the motor. I bought the Flame Thrower 3 ohm Coil on it, also made by Per Tronix. Model # 40511. Bought mine at Amazon. In super ❄️🥶 MN winters it has always started right up and ran like a Demon 😈, a good Demon .. Wouldn't hurt to locate a new Rotor as yours could be going bad. Nice job too. Loved that your wife helped out with that heavy boom!💪💪💎. Soon your boy will need some type of rideable power wheel or maybe a farm tractor!😊
Coil's don't "get weak". They don't suddenly become the wrong size (what ever that means).
Interesting how it is so similar to a Wisconsin engine, but according to the tags obviously its not. Thanks for the video, gave me some ideas about installing an alternator on mine - I have a hydraulic pump coupled to what drives your alternator.
No it is a Wisconsin!
It looks like the boom is on backwards. It seems like the underside sprocket should be closer to where the chain meets the ground
Used an R40 in the eighties, great machine
Yes as long as you keep your machine in good working order you should make your money back and more
You mentioned you use to work at the plant that made the hose fittings - just curious who the company was and where was the plant location. I used to work for an Aeroquip plant that made high pressure hydraulic hose. I frequently visited the fitting plants.

when you measured the gasket, didn't you just max out travel for in te indicator?
