Good advice—especially the reminder not to just recharge. Fixing the leak first is key to avoiding repeat failures and bigger repair costs later.

I’d check Boom & Bucket, IronPlanet, Facebook Marketplace, Ritchie Bros., and Mascus — lots of listings there

Rouse Reports are a solid starting point since they’re based on real transaction data, not just asking prices. But they work best when you pair them with current market signals—like recent results from RB Global platforms such as IronPlanet or Ritchie Bros. Using both gives you a clearer...

Before buying a Komatsu PC75UU-2, I'd mainly check the hydraulic system, undercarriage wear, engine condition, and look for any play in the boom and bucket pins. A quick test run to see how smoothly it operates is also really important.

For international shipping after buying from Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers, you'll usually need a commercial invoice, export declaration, and a bill of lading. Many buyers handle shipping through a freight forwarder, but RB Logistics can sometimes help coordinate transport and paperwork.

Thanks for the checklist. I'll start by checking the engine ground strap and battery voltage, then inspect the wiring harness and ECM connector pins. I'll also verify the ECM fuses and try swapping the relay to rule that out.
