Hi Gang,
I just hooked up my first rear attachment on my 4300, a King Kutter 30" dirt scoop, and everything went well. Most of it was pretty obvious, but there's one thing I'm not clear about.
In the tractor manual, it mentions the three positions that the tractor end of the top link can be mounted in; the bottom one for light loads, the middle for medium to heavy loads, and the top one for very heavy loads. I experimented a bit with the top and bottom mount position, but it wasn't obvious to me, at least with just the scoop attached, why one would use anything but the position for heaviest loads.
I'm sure there's a reason.. but this is one of those cases where the tractor manual tells me how to do something, but not why I might want to do it. The manual assumes some knowledge on my part, and it makes too charitable an assumption. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
In short, what are the advantages of using either of the other two positions?
TIA,
Bob
