[QUOTE="lesgawlik, post: 78526, member: 4115"] I've had two 1816s over the past several years. They're very handy machines, originally designed to be small enough to drive through a standard doorway. I am by no means an expert in hydraulics, but my understanding is that the pumps and motors either work, or they don't. As the system fails, there will be a period of time of reduced performance, but it is relatively brief. You can get a preview by pulling the hydraulic filter, and cutting it open or carefully pouring out the oil that remains in it. As long as you don't see metal --the dreaded golden shower -- you're generally okay. The repower idea is great. The original single cylinder gas engines are loud and shake like crazy. The only good thing about them is that they were used in all sorts of lawn tractors and other equipment, so there are old parts readily available. [/QUOTE]
