High Hours & serious Maint.

Well I tried it out this weekend, worked it pretty hard loading logs & brush, some grading . Worked flawless and rpm a little above idle, never bogged or gave me any trouble. Only thing I found was the right side front axel was wet, small leak in the axel seal I'm thinking. The S220 is a pretty heavy machine and it felt tight and no slop in any of the pins. Need to be a little more carefull around the dump trailer, thing can really beat it up if your not careful. Thanks fellows for all you feed back and advice .

If it is just an axle seal, not a big deal at all. Jack the machine up and see if the wheel wiggles in and out. If it does, the bearings are getting loose.
