    That didn't bother him at all. That would have scared the crap out me if I had been on the dozer. I saw a video of a dozer that slid downhill around a corner. I sent it to me my ex-boss/owner to remind him of his incident.

    The crew leader and I went to another job site to see when the dozer would come to our job. We were at the bottom of the hill near the dozer trailer. Here comes the owner with the D4 high track, wide track. His tracks were full of frozen clay on a dirt road covered with packed snow and he came...

    I had a machine also, but it wasn't to exercise the knee, but keep stretching the muscles to increase the degrees you can bend your knee. I liked it, I would use it while watching TV. Just add a degree or two everyday.

    L3540 hydro power questions

    Mine is a 2012. HST's are weird to get used to, when going up a hill you need to be in the right range, including high or low in that range. As you climb, back off of the HST peddle, which will slow you down, but give you more power and maintain your RPMs.
