Hey jc, thanks for the video! What else would you recommend looking over maintenance-wise with one of these machines? I'd like to pick one up by the end of summer (MH 4900). We have a place that's too tight for a full-size backhoe, but these Struck machines look like a good solution. Move some balsam saplings. Move a few little logs around a portable sawmill. Plow snow. That kind of thing... What other words of wisdom you have for us? Thank you for any info!

the tracks are the main thing to keepan eye on other than that just routine maintnance keep your fluids and filters changed and keep everything greased

Thanks for the info. Looks like a handy tool in the right circumstances. I have to laugh about all the guys saying they are a toy. Yes, if you're building a superhighway, it may not be very useful. Small homeowner though, looks like the right fit... Take care!

I have the same machine or something like it. I have the 7000 and i hate that part. I had to saw mine off and replace it with all thread. don't know how long it will hold up. Would like to come up with a better solution. Like hydraulics or some kind new nut. Out everything about the machine that is the worst part. It is a pain when you lose the track.

I just bought new bolts and nuts for the chain tensioners. New style looks upgraded. Old ones were bent.
