I was looking to buy a used skidsteer. I found a new holland 553. I really don't know much about this model except it has a kubota diesel. Does any know engine size (hp) lifting capacity, reliability and any other info on this machine.
thank you

Check the lifting system pivot points for slop. Look at the quick attach system for breaks, both common issues. When the lift system gets real sloppy they seem to have a problem with the lift knocking off the fuel cap, easy fix is to weld or bolt on a slide next to the fuel fill area to keep arms from hitting cap. I use one quite a bit for a freind loading manure. Has nice lifting hieght, quick hydraulics, and is adecent machine. It does like the fuel compared to a 753 melroe bobcat from my experience.

About 50 hp and 1500 lb lift capacity.
