Lift Broken on Case1494

[Rick D in KY]

I just bought a Case 1494 at auction and learned that the lift didn't work right. Long story short...I have torn into the left side rocker shaft side and found that the splined casting that has the ball shaft that is driven from the lift cylinder has snaped off. It looks like the casting bore that guides the cylinder piston was damaged slightly but I don't think it is bad enough to cause any problems. I have ordered a parts manual and have a service manual but wondered if anyone might have any pointers as to what all is involved in getting the lift arm shaft off and what all has to be done on the right side to be able to get the shaft out so that I can replace the broken casting on the left side.

Thanks,
Rick

Is is a semi-platform, low profile, or a cab tractor?


I have never done one on a cab tractor, but I think the cab has to come off.

Otherwise the procedure is pretty much the same as going in for the selectamatic valve. Plan on wasting a whole day the first time you do it to get in and out. Pretty involved, some detailed adjustments to set on the way back out.


Never seen that break before.

I have the part here if you need one.

Thanks for the info.
It is a open platform so there is no cab to worry with. I haven't studied this out too much yet but when you talk about the selectamatic valve, does this mean I will have to remove all of the valves above to then get to the actual items that need to come off? I will start to look at the service manual and see if I can better understand before I start.
Say you would have the part I need? What kind of money are you talking?
Thanks,
Rick

Email me(open on the modern side) and I will send you my number to discuss the process in detail if needed. too much to type out.
