Hey. I think what he means by "works very abruptly" is the fact that the controls (joystick/valve) on this loader are very difficult to operate smoothly. I have the same loader on at New Holland TC29, and the controls are WAY too touchy. It's almost like they are toggle switches, rather than valves! It is almost IMPOSSIBLE to operate the boom up/down control while the tractor is in motion. Even with the tractor not moving, it takes a very delicate, concentrated effort to operate it smoothly. Especially going down. It will drop like a rock with the slightest touch. When it drops like that, the entire tractor jerks, causing you to push the control stick even harder. Then when you try to back off the stick, the loader stops almost instantly, causing to you to jerk the stick again. This causes a "chain reaction" of rapid starts & stops that reminds me of watching a new driver trying to learn how to drive a straight shift truck. It helps to hold the control stick at the base and rest your palm against the valve mount, which cuts down on that uncontrollable push-pull motion. It's sensitive like that even empty, and a full bucket just makes the problem worse. The icing on the cake is that the lift capacity of the loader is a joke. It's gutless. Needless to say, I am in the market for a new loader, and I doubt it will be a Bush Hog product.
