I don't know why, but I don't think my old Case 580B likes me. Seems like it never fails when it decides to blow a line, it's always the one that is gonna spray hydraulic oil all over me. Blew a dipper line just about a foot out from the controls so guess who got an oil bath. I rebuilt the cylinders last summer and I knew the lines were getting old but like most of us I thought I could baby it along for awhile. That worked well for a little bit, now I can pull the cylinder back off and replace the one that blew and the other one that is on that cylinder that looks old too. It's always easier to do a job over than do it right the first time. Not complaining just telling it like it is, an old man not thinking like he used to. Keith
