@Harry If you were to mount a welder generator inplace of the k321 and change the hydralic motor to an electric motor you would have a hybrid mobile welder . A rack on the back could hold all your whips and stuff .

Re: Pictures: this moment
@Eugen . Was there any oil residue in the inside of the pump mount bracket ? If so change the front shaft seal.
