Hi there forum members. I am a newbee posting for the first time. I love places like this. Where else can someone get advice from a pool of people with 100's of years of combined experience.
I won't bore you any further. I purchased 2 machines for moving my shop. c500 y30 and a c500 25. The mast piston on the 25 is leaking out the top and the transmission no longer engages. The brakes like most machines this age are gone. The trans was fine when purchased. It now does nothing. How difficult is it to reseal the mast piston? The clutch and brakes are pretty much straight forward.

The y30 is losing the clutch. The mast tilt is not holding. We are switching the tilt pistons at this time from the 25 to the y30. Is there an adjustment somewhere for the spool valve control?

I would like a manual for this machine. Any suggestions?
