Newbe here and wanted to share some pics of my new to me 1550 3c. It does have some electrical problems that i have to sort out but overall it is in pretty good condition, no leaks and very little rust on the cab. The serial number is 15/n/2/024/304586/7 which i would appreciate any help to decipher.
Also trying to find a service manual the download page doesn't seem to have anything that covers 1984 years any links to one would be very helpfull.
I am so glad to find this great forum and i am reading every post. A big thank you to everyone!

Welcome, looks good, never seen a back hoe with chains on before.

thanks all. chains came with it, they are a real help in the snow on hills. waiting for warmer weather to start restoring it.I retired last year and this was one of the things on my bucket list.
