What have i done ! New project tb 216R

[Shovelhands]

I have a plan for that.....

Going to get it running and so it can move under its own power cap the hydraulics off at the block then get it on the trailer and to the guy who's going to weld it up for me

Well at least you’ve got a plan, but I have to say I’d have gone with Druid and sorted that bit first while it could be manhandled in to a mill if needed.

I did think that too but then what would you do if you couldn't find another part for rebuilding it because its obsolete ect. At least you know you can glue a new peice on whether it's now or later.

You need a medal for tackling this, or a Blue Peter badge at least.

Is the top king post boss broken out of the frame?

Good point I did notice it had been adjusted at some point

 

[Mick-the-fitter]

With a gas axe by the look of it!

Can anyone recommend a battery to suit please?

Takeuchi are just part no don't actually say the size I have done some googling and I think I need a p45 any help much appreciated as per usual

 

[Mick-the-fitter]

I thought they were P38, let you know tomorrow!

 

[pettsy]

I would think maybe an “053”

Edit: tb216 has this listed, not sure if the “r” is any different?

possibly two go to one terminal ... where do the wires go to ... should have one constant live, one to the starter solenoid and one to the heater plug relay ... fourth might be for your radio or some other aux circuit? but probably energising all your warning lamps

I'm guessing the ACC is for the accessory's circuit.
So should have start,stop,run plus ACC?
@Mick-the-fitter the man

 

[yanmarb03]

Think I have sorted it

Red - B battery
Black white - C
Red white black yellow - acc

 

[Mick-the-fitter]

The cables are marked, the switch is marked, you have power in, starter, ignition and pre heat (4) switch starts at 1 power, ignition 2 pre heat 3 start 4

 

[Mick-the-fitter]

Sorry yes you have the letters on the switch, the cables should be marked the same on the tiny tags!

Just has A B C on each one and the black and yellow has nothing

 

[V8Druid]

alphabetty leccy spaghetti then .. the black yellow is a 'joker' and can be used to spell any letter

can you trace the other ends with a meter ?

 

[Mick-the-fitter]

A1, B2, C3 - put the A wire on 1, then turn key to first position, try each wire by touching other switch terminals with each wire. Lights on the dash will tell you where you are.
