Deployable Universal Combat Earthmover…
he rock guard on your DEUCE’s
blade tilt cylinder is a haven for mud,
small rocks, dirt and sand.
All that crud breaks down the
hydraulic hoses inside the rock guard.
When hydraulic hoses start to rot,
they spring leaks. Without hydraulic oil,
the blade won’t retract, elevate or push
dirt forward. Then your earthmover’s
blade is out of commission.
So, after the day’s run, use a high-pressure water hose on the tilt cylinder’s rock
guard. You may have to get your mechanic to remove the rock guard so you can get
out all that hard-packed crud.
