Title: Oc3 up and running
Post by: Plastikosmd on October 18, 2015, 11:06:25 PM
Finally got the oc up and running. Bought from a member here. It was running but then needed some fuel system and ignition work. Already had been converted to 12v /gear starter, aux transmission and distributer conversion. Firewood today, fun in the woods.

a problem limb along with my favorite felling axe.

Nice looking machine.  Interesting placement of the fuel tank and gauges.

Are you running it without a hood, hard to tell from the views.  Can you post some pictures of the front.

Have you considered a weight package for the rear.  My OC3 will lift in the rear with just a full bucket of dirt.

Jethrow,
What is the 2 slab weight package worth?

Thanks, Kirk

Kirk,

Weight wise it's 2 x 400 pounds, dollar wise, I can't remember seeing them for sale.  Looks to be the same weight package used on the OC4's.

Might be wrong but I'm fairly sure the OC-3 loader counter-weights are 200lbs each and the OC-4 weights are 400lbs. each.
