Hey there everyone...happy holidays
Im trying to get some opinions , thoughts and answers on the JD 250 skid steer. My New holland has a career ending injury and I am looking to purchase a another machine. The 250 I am looking at is somewhere around a 2003-2005 year model with about 650 hours. things seem clean and tight and fluids have been gone through very recently, and for that year range machine the hours are really low , still has with what appears to be the original tires with at least 80-85% tread left, and the price seems very fair
Im trying to find out the exact year, and if it is a series II machine....I have heard the first year or two JD started making their own skid steers they had some quirks...and things got better with the series II.
The PIN # is KV0250A252582....is there a way to determine manufacture date from that number, and to find out if it is a series II ?
This machine currently operates with all hand controls, not quite the pilot style but the style where your right and left hands still control steering and the left does your bucket, and the right does the boom, it also has foot pedals....I was told that there is a switch/pattern changer to set it to hand and foot controls...(hands for steering/feet for bucket-boom)
Any info and help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!
