I just found out that a few days ago, Dad took off the side-cover on the hydraulic sump, checked the level, then replaced it. I ran it a bit today, and it still whines, but not *nearly* as loud as it did before...
Anyway, here's a bunch of pictures of the tank rig for you guys. The support that bends its way up from behind to hold up the front part of the platform used to extend back and bolt onto the rectangular piece that's part of the side-dresser assembly (I think it's for mounting a planter, if memory serves).

When you got to the end of the tobacco row, you just flipped off the switch, headed down another row, flipped the switch again, and on you went.
