[QUOTE="Farmallh51, post: 84013, member: 9466"] TriHonu: Some good ideas, I did not think about a battery heater! Bobcatdan: it is using 10/30 as it is an older machine (1996) however; the driver voters seem to work just fine what I find is the bucket dump and lift arm seem to have a lot of cold oil and our slow until it all warms up. These machines start OKAY and start much easier if the drive belt is removed. The starter is small as these units use an air cooled 18HP Kohler engine. I usually start the machine and let it run for 10 Minutes. siduramaxde: On my 324 mini excavator I do as you said and it works fine as long as I can get it started. The 324 has a small Kubota that is cold blooded. [/QUOTE]
