Greetings;
I have recently purchased a L4740 with cab to use for loading and unloading pallets, moving dirt, bush hogging, and snow removal.
I spent a lot of hours reading this site before making my decision. I really was looking for a bit bigger unit (M6040), but couldn't get used to the shuttle - the hydro is SO much nicer to operate.
My question:
How the heck does one operate forks on one of these??? The visibility is crap! The Loader is Kubota LA853. The bucket isn't too bad, still can't see anything, but not as critical.
With the forks (QA Aftermarket) 48", at ground level and at truck height I can't see ANYTHING. I lived with an old IH300 Utility for 30 years, and you could finagle your head around and eventually see the 36" forks. With the cab it is impossible.
Anyone have suggestions? Is the aftermarket QA not designed properly - I never had a chance to see a Kubota set.
Anyone put on a "Back up Camera"? I have my eye on a couple different units, figuring to mount the camera under the QA plate (good for forks, but no help with the bucket) Any Ideas???
Thanks
