I rented a Cat HM312 head from my ASV dealer. He didn't have a machine available with cab for me to rent with it. So I rented a cat 299d w/ hiflow XPS. Spent most of yesterday working with a cat mechanic to the pins for the quick attach to break loose. Finally got the mulcher on the machine around 3pm yesterday.
I start hooking up the hydro lines and run into a dilemma. The mulcher has 5lines coming off of it. 2x hiflow, 2reg flow and case drain line.
I got the lines hooked up to run the drum, my issue is the case drain line on the mulcher is a male connection, so is the output on the machine. Plus no reg hydro connections to run the door on the mulcher head. Am i at a standstill untill cat opens on Monday morning?
