I'm seriously considering buying a Yanmar 2000 to use for bush-hogging and light box blade work. I've been reading about problems with implements, especially rotary cutters, pushing the tractor forward after the clutch is pushed since the PTO is tranny-driven. Is this a problem with the 2000? If so, how much push could I expect? Some trans-driven PTO's have a ratcheting, slip coupling to keep this from happening. Does the 2000 have this? If not, how do you combat being pushed? I'll know more when I get a chance to test drive one, but I was curious about what you guys' thoughts are. Also, if I want to do a little box work, is a front weight a good idea to have?
