Yup, it was still there in the morning. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
My neighbor sells import stuff and delivered my Jinma chipper this morning, so that was my first time operating the 790. He had to wait till I got the tractor so I could unload the chipper from his trailer. The Chipper weighs about 880 pounds. I had the pallet forks on the loader, so it was pretty easy to pick up. I was just a little jerky on the controls, but I'm sure that will get smoother with practice. It was just under 32degF so the snow hadn't melted. The tractor started instantly, much better than my truck. Not going to do too much with it today, because the family cold has finally decided it was my turn. Been burning the candle at both ends all week. Work, night school, TBN, etc.
Still, I am tempted to go out and see what happens when I put the forks under that huge plate of steel I've got. about 1500 pounds worth. Pretty sure it won't carry it, but should pick up one end easily enough. I'd like to move it up to my workshop closer to a better source of 220AC for cutting it up.
