Planning to go check out a JCB 804, just looking for a landowner/farm machine so the specs seem good for me.

Owner states "Runs and operates need some Hydraulic adjustments for the drive motor to make it go forward mainly just when it turns might be a loose linkage? And adjustment on the grade blade won’t stay up, likes to fall down"

Anything in particular to check on the machine with regards to those 2 issues? Possibly a sign of serious problems?

The machine seems priced right so a few bucks on repairs will be ok, just dont want to end up with a paper weight. I'm pretty handy so can do most repairs myself but lack the time to really devote hours and hours to a project...

Any tips would be appreciated, hoping to see the machine asap.
