If your gonna split that tractor Randy be cautious. There are three hyd o-ringed tubes and a coupler shaft that don't like mis alignment and unseat//bend easily. Any metal in the trans//hyd filter??

Nothing in the filters. Only noisy when the PTO is under load.

Bubba and I took the loader off and pressure washed it. The shop is gonna pick it up Monday.

We had a Mennonite fellow clean out a couple of small ponds today.

Good to hear on no contaminants. Maybe a little easier on the wallet. Funny how some things down in the Volunteer state are the same as in Ohio. We too have white shirted/suspended garb mennonites in machinery. Love the PC160LC excavator. Curious as to why you covered up the model number with that old white tee shirt behind the cab?? BTW good catch basins on those ponds. I'm sure your cattle enjoy the water source on those hot humid summer days your way.

That's not my machine....

But, that's a spot of white paint. Reuben probably painted over a company name that was on it when he bought it.

It sure is a smooth running machine.

Main stuff around me is white. I will get some red planted on my place at some time. Dad has a lot of red that comes up in a low laying area in his field. This year was heavy for clover.

If you mean knife sections yes. TSC had them and they were Heaslers(sp?). Aggressive teeth and a quality section. As far as the complete knives I had left over from my previous two Hesstons they were slightly different .
