 Topic: Alllis Chalmers 615 Video!
Posted: 03 Mar 2011 at 11:45am |
I have posted a youtube video of my 615 backhoe, It will be the only one on youtube and I'm glad to be able to add this record of a cool machine! I am not a professional backhoe operator, I just like the historical aspect and having fun-so no comments about my operating skills, I'm aware of my limitations... practice makes perfect! Here is the link

The shuttle clutch is wet and the engine clutch is dry if I`m not mistaken. It sure sounds good.

My 615 is the AC backhoe of the quick attach type that was on a HD4 machine. 14' hoe and used a Cesna rotary piston for swing. Also 2 stick design.
When I sold the HD4 I kept the hoe with the ides of someday mounting on either my FD5 or HD5 but with AC-715B as main TLB have not needed it.

I know of a 615 gas around here with a loader on it, I hope to add that to the collection someday as they are a nice tractor, and pretty rare.

Thanks for your comments! Anybody know what rattlecan color might match? Caterpillar yellow is the closest so far. I'd like to get this thing a little more presentable. After this video a dug up two more stumps in the yard, I am trying to find more excuses to use it!

A very well done video. Appreciate you posting it for all to view. Also, the way you did it gives a really good overview of the units operation. Makes me think we should all do the same as a historical archive of our "toys" real uses and features. Well done!
