Looks good! Tracks are a bit different style. Did you get all the service records from United Rentals?

I really just dint wanna drive to South Carolina to the cat dealer…. Plus I did message them and like every cat dealer they never email me back. I will say I’m just happy to have a excavator I got a clearing job with it in February If the ground ever dries up I think it will pair good with the 40hp kubota tractor with the loader till I purchase a skid steerLove my 304, I ask alot out of it and its never let me down

I see you have a digging bucket. If you need more buckets such as a grading bucket, I ended up ordering new TAG buckets (12" -48") from a guy named Joe in Cecil PA at Phoenix Equipment (412-221-6766) who even with shipping to WA was less than my Dealer. By the way, you can up size to bigger buckets, as I sometimes use the buckets from my TB153fr on my TB240 based on weight and balance, materials, etc.
