John Deere 333G - 1200hrs - what the heck.

[Luca]

What could of caused this? Bought the machine at auction 2021 JD 333G with 1200hrs.

I knew the machine was around salt, I can tell because it's rusting on almost every bolt.

Let me know what you guys think.

Safe to say blower fan is seized.. lol

Your going to have a lot of heartache with that machine. Steel hydraulic lines will start rusting pinholes, and oh the struggle to disassemble anything. I have a trade in 333g here with 4700 hrs that looks a lot better than that!

Fyi when you pull that blower to replace it it’ll have a SPAR part number on it. You can plug that part number into eBay/google and buy the same part for way cheaper than JD sells it

I don't think that is salt. That looks like fertilizer. You may live to regret that purchase.

Agree, we have a fertilizer plant here and that is exactly what happens in that work environment….
