You won't even notice it after a few minutes.Many older machines are built that way.
What a great looking machine,it looks new.Thanks for sharing with us.Ron G

That one picture, looks like there's an old Michigan pan in the background. Any more pics of that?

I don't have any. There is one good one on the forum. Type "Zagray" in the search bar Find "Strectches Gallery of Actual Equipment' Page 2 Post #28. You'll see it. It is a 6-110 6V53 power.

Great job on the 466. Neat to see one in such nice shape. Today I was working in an old gravel pit and the owner has a 466D. He actually had 2, but cut the first one up already. He said he is going to cut this one up too, unless someone wants it for parts or to fix it up. Sounded like he would sell it for anything over scrap price. It ran a few years ago, but he said it keeps blowing an o ring and then you loose a lot of oil, so he is done with it. If anyone is intersted, pm me and I can get you in toutch with him. Hate to see it scrapped, but I have enough old machines as it is, so I am not going to mess with it. It is located by Bad Ax, MI.

always liked the old koehrings. i grew up around these machines, my dad had 2 mid 1960 466, a 1964 505, and a 73 866d. they may have had some issues and some were clumbsy but these thing were work horses.

It weighs 64000 lbs roughly. It will go on a lowbed all folded pretty easy. Specify any dimensions that you want. It's about the size of a Cat 330.

Very nice looking machine, Thanks for saving it!. I have never been around the smaller models like yours. Typically a Koehring will out pick anything in it's class by a longshot, more so over the side, LOL. Have fun with it.
