I just purchased a L4740 and awaiting delivery. While surfing the boards on TBN I came across the Kioti brand of tractors. I live in Wisconsin and the closest dealer is across the pond, Lake Michigan, in Michigan. So out of interest only I was looking at the features that Kioti has to offer. Nice looking little tractor, seems to be set up nice, but they state that their 4wd is electric over hydraulic. I assume this means that when activated the 4wd runs off hydaulics. When seeing this I asked myself how the 4wd is run on my new Kubota. I would prefer that my 4wd was gear driven. Looking at the features on the Grand L they state, quote, "The front-wheel-drive bevel gear delivers a full and full-power transfer." I assume that the 4wd drive is driven by gears and no hydraulics. My question is, Are my assumptions on both tractor's 4wd systems correct? I would hate to have wrong information in my head about either tractor. Thanks in advance.
