(URL) refer to the link above. I got this pack thinking there were some instructions on how to integrate it into the dirt crusher. But there was none!!!

(...) Probably, as it's easily substituted by bottles of various types. But for us purists the blue tank is a must. Can't imagine a back-hoe carrying a soda pop bottle around with it ;-) CS (19 years ago, 31-Jan-06, to lugnet.technic)
