    Another question about New BX23S .. Broken bolt on Backhoe

    Another question about New BX23S .. Broken bolt on Backhoe

    After this happened, I looked over the entire machine and there are a NUMBER of those zerks still in.....

    Thanks everyone! I watched a ton of the Messicks videos but apparently I missed that one, or didn't think I needed to watch it.

    New BX23S with bad ram seals

    I am a new owner of a BX23S and for the hour I was able to use it I love it so far. Hopefully this is the correct forum. I was checking it over after that hour, while eating and noticed the ram seal (one to keep the crud off the ram as it goes in and out) on the backhoe was sitting at the eye...
