200 hour service calesthenics

[o2batsea]

Gosh, I thought Rovers were hard to work on. Did the 200 hour service and it about wore me out. Granted I wasn't as prepared as I coulda been...shoulda done my push ups more regular.
Anyway its done (DK45 Cab) and I feel better now. Air cleaner in particular was kind of a PITA to get out, as was the (original) oil filter which was nearly impossible to get to/remove. And it's mounted horizontally so that black oil drizzles all over the place. Nice.

OK rant done.

And this all is a surprise to you? Did you not own this tractor during it's 50hr and 100hr service? Just curious. Did my 50hr,100hr, need to check manual to see if anything major for 150. I find that a comfy chair and a few cold ones help with maintenance. Nothin quite like drinkin' thinkin':licking:

No bought it with 130 hrs. I was gonna put on the second set of remotes at the time but screwing around with the actual service took way longer than planned (as usual).
I am thinking I'll get to that chore this coming weekend.

For jobs on the tractor... I think it should take 2 hours, multiply by four, then I get it done in half the time!!! :thumbsup: Hydraulics, I estimated one day... I was very happy to have it done in "half" the time.
