Pulling the trigger on a CK2620 and a few attachments.

The CK2620 feels right for both size and weight. I've got a lot of catchup to do on my property to push back the years of neglect I have given the fields and surrounding house area.

Looking forward to years of working with it.

Now, on to finding the fluid film location recommendations.

Live in a snowy location where salt is, need to under stand what can have f on it and not as we head into fall

Ahhh

I live in a snowy location as well, but my tractors see no salt, as I do not run them on other than my own property.

A single spray can of Fluid film purchased from any of several local auto supply shops will treat a small tractor with material to spare. I would be less than 20 minutes application time.

Just wear old cloths.

I treat our three vehicles to a complete spray every fall. I buy Fluid Film by the case (12 cans)

Do you tend to avoid hoses, seals, bearings and such? I know Fluid Film indicates that you should avoid non-oil resistant rubbers. I take that as being
weather-stripping around doors (and from experience with Krown rustproofing, I can see why). On tractors though, I am concerned about it from the start, based on that prior experience with my car and the other rustproofing.
