I always thought the rechargeable grease guns were an excess but now it makes sense
I haven't really operated the loader as it was blocked in by other stuff in the warehouse, but we started it up and actuated he loader and hitch. Friday we're going to run it around before I hand over the funds and load it up.
I've never operated a loader before but the controls look pretty simple, more so than the controls on my little Vase-International. This new one has 8 gears in forward and reverse with a shuttle shift for changing between forward and reverse so it should be pretty easy to use.
As for transfer tank, I didn't need one before as my C-I only has a 5 gallon tank and I burn about 4 gallons per 8 hours. So it just stopped for diesel on Friday and was set all weekend. No I have to start looking at transfer tanks more seriously. I don't want anything too big as I like using the full 6.5' bed of my truck. I casually looked at tanks and MN are they expensive.
As for diesel, there is a Farm Service store a couple miles away. They supply Tue local farmers. So I should be able to get AG diesel.
Farmer? Yeah am getting close. Maybe the beef cattle topic needs revisiting
In February there is a farm equipment consignment auction next door so I could get a little closer to farming. LOL
