Wednesday last I was trying to move a huge black walnut stump(is actually bigger than my 6' bucket) with my FEL and something made a loud ping like a bullet ricochet and the bucket dropped on the left side then back into the correct position.
I inspected everything I could see and the only thing i found was a nut missing from the left tilt cylinder. don't know where it went because the end of the ram is welded on the ram. The first picture is the right cylinder with the nut. The right cylinder has the spanner notched flat washer shaped nut missing. I've no clue where the missing nut went, as the trunnon is welded to the cylinder shaft.
Is the cause for concern?.
