Hello, 49 8n. Rebuilt hydrulics this summer. Works well. Now in Michigan it's 0 degrees. 3 inches of snow last night. Wanted to plow with rear blade. Warmed up tractor for 30 minutes but lift is struggling.
Question: how dofolks heat up their hydrulic fluid? The only internal friction to heat it up is the pump but not heating it up enough. I could use a torpedo heater and try like we used to pre heat aircraft engine.
Or, maybe put a 110v pan heater on like some do to preheat car oil.
Ideas appriciated.
Thanks
