8ntruck 7,011 #2232 Posted June 30, 2023 I'm impressed. Your access hatches on that got handles on them and they are round. The hatch on my tank is square and has no handle. The thing weights close to 100 lb, too. So far, nobody has dropped it in the tank, but there is ample opportunity for that to happen. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably a good idea. Although with the front wheel weights and the 48” plow the front end felt planted to the earth while I moved the boat. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 21,318 #2236 Posted June 30, 2023 My 414-8 hasn’t done a single chore since it got here 2 or 3 months ago…well today that changed. With a 42” RD she mowed the whole yard. Tractor performed flawlessly, deck could use new blades or sharpen the ones on it. 5 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to manage road construction projects for a community. One of my contractor's foreman was very upbeat all the time... he greeted me on the job sites routinely with "Jimbo, I've got the greatest job in the world!!! people drive by me in construction zones all day long, honking and signaling to me that I'm Number One!!!" Of course, he animated the story with the appropriate hand gesture... Great guy and a great attitude! 1 1 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The square cover on the right is where the waste enters, the middle or round cover is the main cover and the clean out. The square one on the left is where the waste exits to my leaching fields.

You would not believe the rules, regs. and money spent to keep the Bay clean.
