Got some seat time today !

Hi all Got some seat time today and started my trench for the drainage I need so badly and I was working about an hour with the backhoe and one of the control levers just breaks off in my hand ???? What the hey !! Dealer is closed, so I had to find an 8mm bolt just so I could make it work ! 16 hours on the rig when that happened, any thoughts as to why ??? Gonna have the dealer get me a couple new ones !! By the way happy Easter all !!

Was a beautiful spring day here

, just too bad I spent most of it at work.

May have been a bad batch of levers that were produced.

Glad to hear you got some things accomplished. I came home to over 6 inches of snow on the ground...........so I can't do much of anything here.
