I recently purchased a D530 (plate says it is)with a 32 loader and backhoe. I have some questions if anyone can help.
1. By reading the forums, only CK's came with 32 loader/backhoe. What do I really have? what year? S/N 8260495 gas engine.

2. Throttle is to left of steering wheel with an alternate near the right foot area. I have a handle on the left side low that moves forward and back. Is that the forward and reverse? What does the "S" position mean on the shifter?

3. I assume the left pedal is the clutch and that it also operates one of the pedals on the right. The second pedal inboard is the brake???

4. There is also another handle on the right side. No idea what that one does?

5. Where can I get parts when needed and a manual?

Thanks for any help. I am new to this.

Hi guy, Ok...Books are available from Case. See your dealer, if they are on the stick they will have the entire list. Also, check the archives here as we have been thru all this before, look up 530, and/or my name as author. If it is a gas the model should be G530TC, D530TC for diesel. If you have a diesel tag on a gas tractor, then all the other info is a no match, as the dash tin has been changed. If the engine was swapped for a gas, then the data is good. If everything necessary was used to make the swap, e.g. hood,throttle control, wiring, then it would be hard to tell what happened. Controls: throttle on left of steering wheel, lever to right of steering wheel is case-o-matic, in torque converter with lever up/forward and direct (lockup) with lever down, if lever is down, should return up when "clutch" pedal is pushed down. That pedal really dumps the pressure to the torque converter so no power is transmitted. On the main trans, the S is for starting, some still work, many have been bypassed. Lever to left of tractor, ahead of your left knee is fwd/reverse. Use clutch before shifting it. Little lever on right to side of trans is direct/low select. Two pedals on right are brakes. You have hydrostatic steering, won't steer without engine running. That pump is on right front of engine, below the generator. There is a dipstick for the C-O-M on the aft end of the housing before the main trans. There is a dipstick on the main trans fill plug for the trans and diff area. Also, check the loader for oil. There is a pipe plug on the right side of the loader frame, just under where the pivot for the loader is, which is the full check level. With the back hoe, both side frames of the loader are the oil resevoir. This should be enough to get you started and make sure fluids are there. Lotsa pumps on that unit. I'll leave you with a warning: You can get to really like that unit. I got mine for use a on a small farm and it serves well.

George, thank you very much for the information. Really has helped get me get started. One thing though, there is no lever on the right of the steering wheel. I verified the tag. It does say D540, but has a gas engine. Have not really had time to play with it. I am still trying to get it transported. Every trailer I have rented so far has had problems, no brakes or lights don't work. I may give up and have a trucker haul it. Looks like it will be alot of fun to use and tinker with. Any other tips, please feel free to send them.

Thank,
Wayne

Weell now, plot thickens. Let's see. The CK's had the tag on the side of the instrument cluster and the AG's (farm) types had the tag on a trim panel that went below the fuel tank seam and hung down to cover the hydro workings. I think, not sure that all the CK were IDed as 530, anyone else out there seen different?? let me know. All I have seen had 530 for model weather they were gas or diesel. The 530/540 was used on Ag, 3 being diesel and 4 gas. Maybe the guys at the plant were having a bad hair day that day or had a rookie on the plate stamping job. On to other items. If you have a large instrument cluster, with tach and speedo with 4 smaller gauges around outer edge, and do not have a single round gauge on either side of main cluster, then you probably do not have COM. If the decal on the hood is still good, it will say Caseomatic. I believe, no very sure, triple range was not available with the F/R shuttle, as there was not enough room in the torque tube for both. So sounds like you got std clutch with 8 speeds. My books are in storage at the moment due to a hastily force move in Jan so I have been doing this from memory. Write me if you got more specific questions. IMPORTANT---The whole machine weighs over 10,000 pounds. That is more than you want behind a pickup on a trailer. Get somebody with a truck and trailer set up to move that heavy a piece and pay the price, you will be glad when it is over. Trust me on that, Done both, topic for another discussion.

George, you are right about the towing. I picked it up with my 2500HD diesel and a rented trailer(10K I think). got on the highway and about 40mph, the trailer started to do the side dance. So I nursed it to a safe area. Did some research on the problem and moved the tractor forward about 6 inches. Cured the dance problem, but I developed a vibration and the truck did some undesirable porposing. My guess is the tractor has to be on exactly right! If a 3 to 6 inch tolerance is going to make the difference, perhaps I have the wrong equipment. Anyhow, I have an equipment hauler picking it up in the morning to complete the journey.

Thanks,
Wayne

OOOOhhhh!! Everyone who is new to trailering should read what you just wrote. You were lucky. And smart as you knew something was wrong and stopped, then went to plan #2. You could have ended up on the roof in a wad of junk at the side of the road. Better ludk now. Keep in touch as to how things go. We can work on what you got later, re diesel vs gas. George S.

George, Hauler picked the backhoe up yesterday and as an added bonus, he hauled my old dump truck too. (Of course it cost me alittle extra!). Although my wife said it was the right move, I am still fighting the pride that I wouldn't let my HD2500 do the job!

Had time to play...errr, I mean do some work with it yesterday afternoon. Worked real well. I am working on getting a manual for it. I have some more info for you and a couple of new questions.

The info: The only gage to the right of the instrument cluster appears to be a temp. gage. Does not appear that there ever was a handle on the right side of steering wheel. The only plate is on the side of engine cowling with the D530. Yep, I verified it is gas, cause I put 7 gallons of unleaded in and it ran fine! (smile) Now for the questions: 1. The hydraulic reservoir in each of the loader arms seems to be connected together by a "T" fitting at the bottom. Is it ok for me to service only only one side? And is there a seperate resorvoir for the backhoe?
2. When I push the clutch (left pedal)in, the inside pedal on the right side goes down also. Is that part of the clutch or part of clutch/brake. The far right pedal is not effected by the clutch movement.

3. What configuration should I be in to get the most effective torque?

4. Do I need to service the shifter gear insides with any fluids? There appears to be a hex head bolt near the shifter?

Thanks in advance for the education and patience with this newbie.

As a side note, I have definately learned to watch where I step. the alternate foot throttle on the right floorboard scared the #$%% out of me as well as the foot pedals for the backhoe. (I think I am going to paint them red with a "no step" stencil! (smile)

Thanks,
Wayne
