The owner walks through condition after buying it as a budget alternative to pricier Kubota or Chinese attachments: checking rams, swing arm, hydraulics for leaks, tires, bucket teeth, and diff/gearbox oil, while speculating on hours and lineage (135 front, 175 rear, Perkins engine). Best for buyers considering an older, project-adjacent used unit.
