Need to refurbish my machine

[Laplandlover]

The cabmate is in decent shape, but it definitely needs some work and I plan to bring it back to life and let it operate as intended once more. Anyone have any tips for restoring and refurbishing it? Most importantly, where do you usually get the parts?

Best bet to get the parts is calling link directly or checking with salvage yards that deal in older rigs

Great suggestion! Calling Link directly can be really helpful and you might be surprised by what salvage yards have in stock. Have you managed to find a parts list or diagram for it yet?

Start by checking all seals and gaskets, clean and inspect the hydraulic system thoroughly, flushing and replacing any worn hoses or fittings, I usually hit up specialized vintage tractor parts dealers online or sometimes folks have spares or know where to find rare bits
