    Leaky Hydraulic Hoses

    I was at the ready Dave. Glad you got it resolved. I need to go change a hose or 2. Thanks Stubbyie for all the good info on getting the hoses straight. The fittings that cam eon the replacement hoses have 2 nuts. One that makes the connection to the oil line and one that will let you twist...

    tipped b7800 onto its left side

    I agree with you BadDog, a loaded bucket needs to stay low. I had shoveled the dirt from the shrub we were moving and just forgot about the dirt being in the bucket while I was moving the shrub. I will be the first to admit that I got a bit comfortable and in this instance there was just one...

    tipped b7800 onto its left side

    Yesterday I flipped my B7800 on its side. As it was a slow motion roll at a slow speed, I was able to clear the tractor as it came over and was not hurt, just rattled. The tractor ran for no more than 10 seconds while on its side and I was able to get it up right after about 45 min to an hour...
