Avant mini loader (Diesel) Its a 1999 model Avant mini loader we are using at work for compressing the cardboard dumpster, plowing snow, moving dirt etc
the engine is a 17 HP Kubota 2 cyl Diesel. It can carry upto 400KG. it has never had any problems mainly due to continual service like yearly oil change, cleaning of the airfilter and the radiator-(Carefully) with compressed air. weekly lubrication of bearings and other movable parts. fuel filter, fuel rack, injectors everything is cleaned once a year, every single bearing in the engine was replaced 2 years ago, the valves gets adjustment every 2 years, hydraulic pumps have been taken apart and cleaned, timing belt is swapped once a year, drivechains (yes its chains inside the frame connected to each of the four wheels) even the wheel bearings gets lubed. i have also added an emergency stop handle to prevent any runaway that might occur (It both kills the fuel AND chokes it) Also i have added a rev limiter ( a bolt under the gas pedal) since people at this place LOVES to floor it (They drive like idiots cus they seems to allways run with the throttle wide open regardless of what i try to tell them…) So i have added another linkage to the throttle that goes under the seat (i might need some extra power when plowing and such) but they wont drive around using the secondary throttle cus thats just too complicated.. (try driving with a hand under your seat.. see how it goes x) Well to this date (Look at the upload date) it has only run about 2K+ hours wich is NOT a lot but we still use it every day and its the only machine that ALLWAYS fires at the first go at this place.. well it stumbles a bit when its cold but we just hold a normal idle manually til it can run on its own. We allways park it inside the storage hall so it has never really ben parked outside so rust is very sparse.. especcially for a 13-14 years old loader. we have put cap’s on every nut’n'bolt on this thing to kep the rust off there too, reflex lights added on the front rear and sides too for visibility. there is NO color on the exhaust and infact the exhaust is clear exept when we reverse when its cold. it never gets super hot when runningeither (you can touch the exaust when the engine has gotten to the right operating temperature[I know how warm the engine is by the way it sounds and feels and we have a light that comes on if it gets too hot. we have never actually gotten it to the point of actually lighting up but when it DOES get a bit overly hot we can feel it cus it starts running awkward].) (list of minor problems: The steering column drips ever so lightly (Hydraulic oil) due to a faulty seal, The temperature gauge is dead ( we just cant seem to find out why.), at a certain speed the engine starts hunting, and some fool that thought they were smart and put the handbrake cable between two hydraulic lines so it’s squashed and doesent work. but for a 14 year old Loader this aint too bad and it still runs like a champ.
