We have owned many of the 30's they have their own inherant problems. Most of our guys love them but as a mechanic I find they run rough,. I would suggest not to let it idle for long periods as we have had bolts shear between pump and bell housing. They also like to tear the teeth out of the tracks but can be replaced with larry lugs. Engines always run strong. Also we have tipped a few with rookie operators

Thanks Motochris. I'll call tomorrow. And Chev5557, thanks very much for your input, it was very helpful to hear what someone who has to keep them running thinks! One of the main appeals to me is that the small size and 48" bucket will fit down my grape rows (I am a farmer), and even the RC50 is borderline too big for this application.

No, when I called, she told me that someone else was in front of me for it. I do appreciate your help, though. I did find one yesterday in Louisiana--still waiting for some more information on it.
