What have you done to your Branson today?

[Asteral]

just make sure your following that h pattern religiously.. if you try to shift into the other side( 1-2) to (3-4) too fast you can jump out of the pattern and wedge your linkage, I've fixed 30+ of these since they made the design change in 20, while its not very common it can occur if you're a tad to hasty shifting, while it is a much better design its not without its owns issues.

and before its asked there's really only one way to fix it and hat involves removing the tire and disassembling the linkage and reinstalling it back into the correct position.

Clover,

I don't know how to break this to you, but it looks like someone snuck in and stole all your snow.



Thanks for sharing the pics.

Ceramic paint protection. Yesterday I installed the hydraulic flow restrictors for the hydraulic top link, and the quick hitch.

Very nice installation.

The flow restrictors are to make the pistons less jerky?

Yea, for the top link. Now it's much more controllable. The flow on this thing is so high, it was almost useless for precise adjustments

We get asked about restrictors like these all the time what did you end up going with?

An inline .03125" orifice on both male connectors. It works like a dream

Finally took the 3 pt snow blower off the Branson today.

Put the box blade on and swapped the bucket for the forks.

Have to move some pallets and IBC totes tomorrow.

I'm having an issue with my SSQA latch pins sticking hard.

I'll probably look into it deeper tomorrow. May start a new thread depending on how it goes.
