Discussion:
Traction motor replacement.

Good day everyone!
Hey I have a client with an ET4000 that the hit something with the lower left traction motor. I can source a rebuilt one but I'm wondering what the best procedure is for accessing the motor? Raise the unit straight up? Remove the battery and flip it forward on the mast, or tip it sideways?
Thanks.

Fact of the week
In 1898, author Morgan Robertson wrote a novel called 'Futility', which described an "unsinkable" ship named the Titan that sank after hitting an iceberg. Fourteen years later, the Titanic sank in a strikingly similar fashion.
