Yep , we had one stolen several years back wright before Christmas on the coldest night of the year . They drove part way onto the farm from the back with a four wheel drive pickup that had goodyear tires . They drove to the bottom of the hill beind the barn and then walked up slid the barn door open fired it up and drove it out the back to a waiting truck and trailer then west bound down the township road and were gone . Four weeks later some guy was talking at the local coffee shop about the great deal he got on a New Holland LX 665 , well someone there made the comment that he heard that someone had one stolen . This guy went home and called the law they came out and checked the S/N and yep it was ours they hauled it to impound then my buddy went down and sure enough it was ours . AFTER we had gone out and bought another LX665 . That is when the fight started with the insurance co. They said it was theres now and we said OH NO you have not paid the clam yet so it is still ours . So now we have two LX 665 's But now they are set with a lock out code that must be punched in before you try and start it and if you try and start it with out the code it will start run for 15 seconds and SHUT DOWN and will not restart till another code is put in . And it is NOT the same . since then we have installed master switches on the tractors , you can not see the master and you will spend time tryen to bypass once you find it and crooks don't want to spend time . Also we will know if someone trys to sneak in that back way as now there are censors that are out there and are wireless . they sound and alarm at the farm and also here at my place . i can be at the back side of the farm in under six min.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power.
