After running the composter thru our poultry barns I leave the skid steer running for 5-10 minutes to cool down the hydraulics
It takes about 5 hours to compost all 3 barns so the hydraulics get pretty hot
One time after finishing I pulled the skid steeer into the shed and left it running as usual while I closed up the barn turning off the lights and exta fans
My pickup was setting in the driveway between barn 1 and 2, with other things on my mine I got in the truck and drove home
2 days later I went back to flip the compost piles over and found the battery was dead on the skid steer, yep I had left it running and it set there idling until it ran out of fuel, which was less than 1/4 tank
The bad thing was that machine has an electric fuel pump, running it dry until the battery went dead burnout the pump
