Long story short:
New to me M. Been in the single digits for a few day and haven't used it. Started it this morning and she's frozen where she sits. I assume there is water in the rear that is frozen. When to try to move it there is no movement at all like there would be with a frozen up brake band or something.
Never mind this new one is my loader/go-to tractor. How to I get that thawed and make it ok until spring? I am going to put a heat lamp on the rear. I think it is supposed to be in the mid 30s today. Even if it is, I won't get a good drain in this cold weather. That is more of a spring job. Can I dump a bunch of "Heet" in there until spring? I don't want it freezing and breaking anything.
Also, where do I aim the heat lamp? Is the ice at the bottom or top? Do I clamp it on the bottom of the tractor or on the side by a brake band?
Always something, isn't it? The tractor I junked for this one has brand new fluid in it!
Oh, the tractor is always shedded here but set out before I bought it. Thus the water. No, it isnt frozen to the ground.
