With all the rain, it's been too wet to get it out, so I greased everything and checked fluids.

I putzed around a bit today, chop-blowing some leaves and moved a bucket of firewood. Maybe an hour or less, but enough to give it good warm feeling.

Crated weight was 1650lbs. At the limit with my pallet forks , actually had to take a few things off the front of crate to lift. Crate was 88inches so somewhat out there. Once on the ground, easier lift from side.

David how much hydrolic fluid did it take to fill the hyd tank on your back hoe?

I put about 5 g initially, but I think it needs to be topped off now all the cylinders have been exercised. Just haven’t got to it, other priorities, like my off grid electric.
