    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    During today's walk around I found a potential problem just waiting to spring on me. Had the belt been in a different position I never would have seen it, sorry took belt off before I took pictures. New belt installed and old belt in my just in case pile... Check those belts and hoses.
