[QUOTE="dangerbob, post: 4227934, member: 66784"] Jus purchased a 22 ton speeco, from a company on ebay. When I arrived I noticed that It looked like it had been sitting for a while. Both the hydraulic fluid and the engine oil (6.5hp chinese motor) were milky and odd smelling. I was under the impression the machine would be empty of fluids, so I already had new juice waiting. I drained and changed hyro and motor oil, before starting. I also went over the whole machine and checked for loose bolts, etc....[U] I have given up on ever believing anything is shipped ready to run, you should too Check everything.[/U] The machine fired right up and I have probably split about a cord and a half so far. The machine works flawlessly, so far. No complaints. [/QUOTE]
