Backhoe rhino backhoe slow on swing

Anonymous Poster · Nov 28, 2002

Hi Just bought a kioti LB 1914 with rhino loader and rhino 75 backhoe. I was using the backhoe digging out a stump and everything was fine the next bucket it swung to the left fine but was extremly slow going to the right. Any ideas to what my problem could be. the tractor has only 8 hours on it I think this board is great ive gained a lot of info from it.

Are you saying that all other movements with the hoe work normal except for the right swing?
If that is the case I would first look for simple things such as a pinched or kinked hose to the swing cylinder etc.

You might have a blown piston seal,allowing fluid to blow by the piston...Mike

turns out i had air in the system after bleeding it its working fine Im very impressed with what this tractor can do for its size I live on a dirt camp road and am considering a york rake to smooth it any opinons on what size rake LB1914 can handle [no rocks its all sand] it just gets rutted up by 4 wheelers thanks Wart
