Posted by Pete C on Sunday, October 18, 2009:

Hate to be pushy, but I put money down on a 3600 and am looking for input and inspection tips .. supposed to pick it up tomorrow (10/09) .. I have never owned/operated anything similar ..

didn't confirm the year or get serial (duh!) but did a quick once over .. owner thinks it's late 70's, unknown hours, 3cyl Gas w/loader .. everything was functional .. started and ran
smooth with maybe a hint of smoke on startup, some oil/grunge on engine but no big wet spots (actually drove buy 2 days ago and tractor was parked in same place, no stains underneath)

3pt, PTO, Bucket went thought the paces (w/ no load).. had a leak in one of the bucket arm cylinders (longer one, not bucket tilt).. this tractor also has the hyd res in the arm of the bucket, seems odd (but what do I know), any issues?

seller was asking $4500, was willing to negotiate .. figure this is really a good price ..

what should I look at closer, give extra precautions on ?

TIA

Pete C
