Fixing Åkerman 350 cable excavator after 20 years of sitting

The Åkerman 350 is a swedish cable backhoe that was a further developed version of the company's first model - the Åkerman 300 (that I also have). On a nice november sunday we went to start the old machine up which went surprisingly well after it had been sitting for 20 years. The model 350 was manufactured between 1950-1957 in 445 copies; this specific model has a 55hp Bolinder 1054 engine and must therefore be manufactured between 1953-1957
