ASV RC 30 Loader


Problem with hydraulic system on ASV RC 30. Started April 19, 2008, makes a noise after the oil warms up, also had a problem with the bucket drifting downward, this problem started the first day I got it, sent you a fax about it. I haven’t noticed any bucket drifting , but now I have noisy hydraulics when I raise the bucket, please advise!

    What grade of oil did you use? Thanks!

  • ASVmeRC30:

    I wondered about that, because it only happens when the oil is hot, what grade did you use?
    Thanks for the info!

    I have an older model, it did the same thing so i used a heavier hydrualic oil in it and no it’s stopped.

  • ASVmeRC30:

    No I haven’t, the dealer told me to bring it back when I have some down time and before the warranty runs out, is yours still under warranty? I believe it has something to do with the hydraulic oil, maybe it need to be heavier.

    My ASV RC 30 has had way more than it’s share of problems. 2 blown hoses, 3 electrical probs, slop in all places due to no hardened steel bushings in any wear spots-(cylinder ends), a battery at 600 hrs, fuel shut off solenoid went out, etc etc
    My Case 1840- 10 years, 1 battery, one pump seal in 2000 hrs.

I bought it new 18 months ago and it has 400 hrs mine is a lemon . I saved up a year before I bought it and this is what I get. I have been in business 25 yrs and they tell me I don’t know how to run equip. I am in disc. on replacement.
