Knocking noise in SLV75-2 Boom

[cruthas]

Hi there,

I'm looking at this machine to purchase next Tuesday and wondering if the knocking noise in this video, starting at 0:17: everything looks good from afar but I want to make sure I'm not missing anything. The repaint is a little suspect but I'll take a close look at everything when I get there. It's about an eight our drive for me.

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Sounds like the bucket latch springs & parts are making that noise while operator is locking & unlocking. which is normal. lubrication would probably help some

I realized that after I posted, but thanks for confirming. First couple times I watch it I didn't see he was releasing the bucket.
