So I ordered my new tractor, now I have to think about some operational details.
High on the list is how to store around 20 or so gallons of diesel fuel, and then be able to easily fill up the fuel tank on the TYM T474 when it runs low. I sure as heck don't want to be lifting and holding 5 gallon containers to fill up that 9 gallon fuel tank on the back of the tractor. And I want to have enough fuel here such that I don't have to run all that often to get more when I get involved in doing some work with the tractor.
So what sort of solutions have others come up with for this dilemma?
And speaking of which, I have seen people drop mention that it is a bad idea to run a diesel motor completely out of fuel. But no one has said why. Any enlightenment available?
