had a day working on on the jib rams and hydralic system today,pins came out of the jib so easily as we though we would have a struggle with but not so, all going well so far,cleaned up the rams as they were rusty,all going well ,pumped 40 gallons of hydralic oil in the old girl and fired her up to bleed the system no problems,operated the jib rams in and out all looking good then tried the main winch,pulled in ok but would not work going out,fiddled about with controls still wouldent work,got out to look at the manual and guess whats all over the floor ??? nearly all the oil we had put in,turns out the pressure pipe to main winch is blown and its burried right under everthing so we now have to take the hoist winch out and the hydralic tank out to get to this f$&*£$!g pipe,oh well thats tank restos for you
