Greetings!
We bought and had refurbished, a IH674 diesel which has worked great for us. It痴 our first tractor and being a first generation hop farmer, I知 learning this as I go.
I thought we壇 have room in our barn (large 3 stall garage) to store it over winter, which we did early in the Spring when we got it?owever the barn is busting at the seams now so looks like it may need to remain outdoors. At present, I tarp/cover it after use so it痴 been fine all season long, however preparing it for Winter is a different story.
Could folks help me determine what I need to do to prep it?uel additives, protecting the tires as best I can, keeping critters out, any other fluids that either need additives or should be drained. It has a front bucket that I致e unmounted?nything specific for the hydraulics?luid, protecting the terminals, etc?
Thanks!
Joshua
