It's been wet here too . We have about 80 acres of winter grazing that should have been cut a month ago for hay. We had a fellow cut about 20 acres but then the rains started. Its laying on the ground and rotting. He baled about 20 bales Saturday but the moisture was too high so he quit...

Haha !! me too. I need to try them... meant to do that yesterday with the family here but forgot. Maybe tomorrow to test that Belgium chocolate. I smoked ribs and it was fun watching that 3 year old gnaw on a bone-actually 2 bones. All 3 kids gave them a workout. Yesterday was a somber...

My nephew and his wife went to Belgium to visit my niece and this is what I got as a gift. At first I said "Whhaaat . rusty wrenches? ".

We have ordered cylinders of different types from a place called Surplus Center.

My license expires next year and it sounds like the new renewal program is like yours ETF. I'm glad its renewable on line because I could never sit still for a five hour class any more. I think a lot of misuse has contributed to the harder licensing. My garden was likely "drifted on" last...

Could a rock or debris have gotten in that area? Try backing up in reverse for a few seconds. I had a rock or debris get up into my Roxor's brake area and while they are worn after 7 years (wow).... doing this silenced the squeak this morning.

Check out the diagram for your model at Messick's Equipment. They have a great website .

I'm glad you have the equipment to do the cleaning up. The wind has been horrible here too. Strong and gusty with no rain this past week. Very unusual . We lost a few trees in the pastures that were over a hundred years old. They were old and weak but still sad to see them go. It did storm...

Fedup, that's a great reply. Thank you for posting it for him.

That's the truth ! This one is just for use here on the farm and comes out after filling the trac hoe or dozer for the day. Bil doesn't like to leave much weight on the springs in the F150 overnight.

The brother in law bought a metal tank- I think 100g from tractor supply. I don't remember what it cost but its sturdy for what it is. We use it on a pallet and put it in the truck when needed with the skid steer forks.

Let us know the year model as Aurthuritis mentioned . Did it move in 4wd ? Has the fluids and filters been change lately? Reason I asked is on some year models , the fill reservoir for the transmission is not in a normal place and are under the seat in some cases..

You're going to have a tank ! We did buy the Precleaner and if I remember it was $800 for that little thing and we installed it ourselves. The bad thing about the precleaner is that you can't lift the radiator screen without removing it's cap. That 's easy enough but just something else to do...

Here's a picture of the unwashed 262 D3 that I use here on the farm. It has the 2 speed selector but I seldom use that. If the image is enlarged, the anti-debris belting we added can be seen.

It's a 4 wheeled Skid steer . I think your seat will be heated if it's air suspension . Mine does and it makes a big difference in comfort. We started out with a Case 1840 . It will turn on a dime and I still use it for detailed stuff and for cleaning the tromped on hay off of our concrete...
