Welcome to the channel where today we are checking up on the fleet and winterizing one of the scrapped track loaders we bought. A lot of the equipment we have around we use quite a bit, and then a lot we don't use really at all. Regardless, we need to start it up once a year and go through the motions!!
Have some abandoned equipment you think we would be interested in?? Let us know - forms.gle/vafcVDAm4JVkW8F49

  • we call it antifreeze but it needs the water to not freeze as crazy as it sound... the water by itself will freeze around 0C... the antifreeze around -12C if i recall... but both together will go -45C... because they cannot form big ice crystal since the molecule are spaced from each other. so 100% antifreeze will freeze!
