As Usual

Mornin'

As usual, you guys were right again and have put my "hand wringin'" to an end. Whew!

I worked this 310 pretty hard in some very heavy growth for the past couple of days and just like you said, the "blue smoke" completely stopped just as soon as she leaned into the collar. No oil consumption at all that I can see, so guess my 'sweating bullets' are over.

Aside from not having the power brakes (which I really miss), this thing sounds, feels & pulls just like my old 766 did and that thing (as I recall) had something like 68 horses .

Were these Bosch pumps relatively easy to turn up and could someone have plugged in another 10hp somewhere along the line during the past 25 years? I notice that someone has put oversize tires (maybe 2 sizes) on it all the way around as well.

It pulls way harder than any 656 I've ever operated; and I thought the 686s were supposed to be just a newer version of the 656?

Thanks all,

Allan
