We had 60cm about 25 inches in early Octobeer. Went out on the mountain sleds and had a great ride. All melted in two weeks and the combines have been back out for the last 10 days or so. We still had 20% of the crop out in the fields then, hopefully it all gets in the bin on this recent mild weathe...

the 93 had that odd round hydraulic unit for swinging the boom that has had a lot of bad comments about it everywhere that forums discuss this model. The 9300 does not look to use this method. I have a Case hoe attachment with a custom bracket to fit my Deere 350b that uses a system more like the 93...

Under the seat cushion. Left side just behind your left heel. Big round head than needs to be turned out as it has threads under the cap. One dipstick for reverser and transmission.

It is likely leaking onto the ground or into your belly pans. Top it up and keep checking under. My 350b has needed new fluid cooling lines to the rad but also has had the canister oil filter in front of the rad come loose and leak a few times.

I could not get mine out so I cut it into pieces and replaced it with flexible hose. Works fine for me.

I have a ripper on my 350c and would like to move it to a 450. I just have not been able to find a hoe bracket for the 450 otherwise it would have been moved over already. If anyone has a reasonable priced 450 bracket I would have it shipped here.

I lifted a 350 loader bucket 4 feet up with my jack all.. Used lots of blocks for safety all the way up in case the jack slipped. Put the loader control arm in the float position .

I put a pail of water contaminated transmission oil in the basement and forgot about it for a few months. I was going to use it to light brush piles. It was in a clear pail just by chance as most pails I have are not clear. It was in a warm place near the furnace room and, I was surprised when in th...

Cutting Edge,,,, So far, only indigenous trees on our property. Although we have large tracks of un populated provincial forests near by that were re planted after clear cutting for pulp. The Pulp Mill here closed a decade ago. Not for a lack of trees, It just could not make a buck. 1200 jobs howeve...

Facebook has the possibility of being really good for your business. It is a lot more fun than web sites because people follow it and comment much more often and the ease of putting up photos and links will be exciting. Downsides include that it is not very useful for archiving great information lik...

To my surprise, I retrieved a pail of milky oil that I had put into a warm room in the basement last summer and, the water has settled out. It was fairly new oil before the water got into it and it looks good as new now. I had put it into a clear container or I might not have noticed and sent it to ...
