It took several weeks from ordered to delivery. I did some pushing and actually got it with one item still backorder, the top-n-tilt kit. valves and port's are there.
Spent time going over fluids, grease and documenting all the factory tags (picture) and numbers.
I had to add bushings to the 3 point , cat 2 to cat 1 and reposition the top link for the box blade. The dealer didn't do those things.
I added two clevis pins to the frame to use when chaining to the trailer.
I even washed it. I wanted it spotless so I can check for leaks and such.
Used the loader and box blade some just getting the feel as this is my first tractor.
It's job's will be processing track out rock, forklift shop duty, moving trailers, equipment yard maintenance and after the addition of a PTO hydraulic power pack, it will be working a Sweeper and a flipscreen used for screening material.
Next week it will be working with the Bobcat .....
