i boasted the main seal on my stump grinder. BUT did not know it until much later. we had a very large stump with a huge surface root system to boot to remove. all along grinding away at that job i was not aware what happened.

my machine is a power trac 425. almost everything is hydraulic. when two thirds finished with the job, my lift arms would only move sluggishly, the stump grinder turned slower but when i attempted to reposition the tractor th steering had fail to react to my commands. i successfully had drained most of my hydraulic fluid onto my grinding job a drop at the time, without me knowing until the total hydraulic systems failure.
