Ok guys have a quick question. I have a 632 that the hydraulic tank is on the left side of the machine. Has anyone here ever use a magnetic tank heater to warm up the fluid before using their machine in the winter. Now keep in mind I am in MN with temps below 0 sometimes. Was just thinking it might be an option. Steve

You may want to consider one of the little silicone hot pads that Napa sells. Manufacturer is Kats.They are pretty thin and will fit in places a magnetic heater might not. Worked for me on my rigs when I lived in Fairbanks.
