    Rayco RG50 will not start.

    I put them back on exactly as they came off, did proper startup, when I got to high gear it swings up and down great, noticed it's working backwards with the lever, where I used to push the lever to swing away and pull it to swing towards me it is now opposite. It swung to away okay but swung...

    Rayco RG50 will not start.

    They were a great help thanks. I have had to repack my cylinders, or get them repacked rather, and will be reinstalling this afternoon. My question, how do I repressurize the hydraulics after I connect everything? Do I just bump start it a few times, do the normal starting procedure and...

    It starts out great but gets sluggish over time. What would cause that?

    I will. Today I noticed a little sluggishness returning but it was not as bad. Do you sell the pumps that control the piston or the piston?

    Rayco RG50 will not start.

    I siphoned instead. I am on a nice driveway with nowhere else to work on the machine. I got as much as possible. Filled it back up with new fluid. I assume by bump starting you meant kind of half starting? I did that a few times where it barely cranked and I cut it off. It seemed to swing...

    I feel like a doofus but where is the drain for the hydraulic fluid?

    Rayco RG50 will not start.

    I am suspecting water in the oil and will change that to see. Side topic, where do I find the machine serial number? I am looking for it for a service manual but am not sure if what I've found is for the machine or a part. Thanks.

    Rayco RG50 hydraulics

    Dave, I have been having a hydraulic problem. The swing has been slow, I replaced the filter, it got better, then it got slow again. I'm going to change the oil and hope that helps but is there a valve or pump that I can check as well? Still haven't been able to find a manual so I'm not sure...

    Thanks for the reply. Again your knowledge is well received and appreciated. I was able to get it into neutral and winch it onto my trailer. The fuel tank and muffler are beside and above the starter, what is your suggestion for getting to it?

    Also, can you put the RG50 in "neutral" so that you can tow it onto a trailer?

    Rayco RG50 will not start.

    RG50 will not start. I got a new battery and cleaned the terminal connectors. When I turn the key it clicks once and then does nothing. It was smoking a little yesterday after a heavy push through sand and then would not restart after I turned it off to cool down. It looks like a little charring...

    Rayco RG50 Polybelt Pulley Replacement

    I got that part. The bushing is extremely hard to get on. Is that normal? Do I tighten the bushing all the way to the pulley and will that make it slide on easier? Already broke 1 bushing!

    Rayco RG50 Polybelt Pulley Replacement

    How do you get it back on? Is there an adjustment for the tension on the pulley to slide it down or the lower pulley up?
