    I bought a heavy rubber mat and used the original mat as a pattern to cut out a new mat. My L12 had 145 hours on it even though it was unused also.

    Pretty cool and good price, really looks brand new, just want to advise to put a ip66 or ip67 toggle switch there because the rain, also install and in-line fuse or a relay to prevent any electrical problems,

    Well it been a couple months. Do you regret changing those grease zerks yet? If not, you will. They put the needle style in so you don't break them off while digging.
    The battery cut off makes the perfect spot to switch the fans, that way you wont forget to turn off the switch because the fans will audibly remind you.

    • @brandoncalk1928

      No, I do not… changing out the timer to digital, helped with the ignition problem that keeps running the timer without the engine running. My fan switch works perfectly 👍

    I like the needle type zerks, they're pretty low profile. The only regular zerks on mine are for the rotational gears. I got a chery kv12. More or less the same as that, few differences. Mine came with a grading bucket, tooth bucket, grabber, and a quick connect

    • @brandoncalk1928
      @brandoncalk1928  10 місяців тому +2

      The tracks don’t really have much give in them. You’d really have to work the push blade up and down quite often. It will only push so much material, before it will start coming over the top. The push blade is really for short distance grading.
