My Fermec 965 Backhoe Loader is showing wear in the backhoe bearings causing control to be sloppy and inconsistent. Original bearings cost over one thousand Euros – and with the poor exchange rates it was not an option.
I located an identical machine – a Case 595 Super LE which had been destroyed in a fire and purchased the entire assembly from the owner.
This machine had much less use than mine and I will simply swap the entire assembly over. The spare parts weigh 280kg.
Trout and Salmon may be caught from the shore of my property.
After seeing how much ‘Skuggi’ my Labrador enjoyed himself in the sea, I could not resist joining him.
Today was overcast and warm, temperatures reached a whopping 15° C and the sea was quite warm, I believe the water temperature may have reached 6° to 8° – quite comfortable once I was in the water.
Must do this more often, afterwards I felt almost alive…8-)
If you visit my station, don´t forget your swimsuit.
I took my Labrador – ‘Skuggi’ to the beach. His name means ‘Shadow’. He enjoys swimming very much and he is without any doubt the strongest dog in the whole of Iceland and possibly the world.
