What have you done to your Branson today?

[Cougsfan]

Good save Bob. I take my loader off frequently. It is about a 10 minute or less job once you get used to doing it. I always make sure my lynch pins are in the inside and are pointing downward in case one does become unsecured (but that has never happened). It seems odd that the big pin would slide out on its own, even with the lynch pin out, but it obviously can. I am sure glad you noticed it right away!

Hey Slim.

I've been tempted to remove the loader when mowing but have never actually done so. As I'm sure you can tell the FEL came off when backscraping at a steep bucket angle however I don't know when the pin was lost.

Thanks for the reply.

I'll have to make a mental note to start visually checking mine to make sure they stay put. I have to confess I've never really thought it was possible that the pin would walk out on its own.

Appreciate you giving us all the heads up on that one.

I used the 3520 to place beams for the new deck. Working by myself as usual.

 

[Branson Bob]

Four beams in all.

Looks good Bob! That will be a nice deck.

Spent an hour or so recovering the gravel that had washed off the driveway from my creek bed.

Used that rock to fill the ruts in the yard and make a little parking pad.

And then I gave her a bath. All the way up to 17 hours on her now. Lol

You..., washed it...?

I've never heard of such a thing.

 

[Branson Bob]

You..., washed it...?

I've never heard of such a thing.

It must be some sort of bad joke.

Replacing the worn-out front tires on the Cub.

Bob, what brand is your boom? It looks like it may have multiple things that slide into the receiver or is it just so you can pull it out for storage?
