L4760 vs L4240

[MHarryE]

How much do your grain totes weigh?

Our totes are all loaded to 2,000 pounds plus or minus 25 - that is for the wheat totes. They don't fill them completely for handling purposes. I do have my way of moving them - work it to tilt back as far as possible bringing the CG closer to the pins, but the main thing is to get the JD 6320 which has no problem lifting if it is available. Tomorrow we will have a M135GX but still it would be nice if he L5740 had a little more oomph because it is so more maneuverable.

I bumped my relief pressure 200# which made some difference. Mine will lift to the point where it still picks the back wheels off and that is with 1400# on the 3pt and another 750# of cast wheel weights.

That is what I did. No regrets!!!! Got 47 hours on my 4240. It's a HOSS!

I've been very happy with my 4240 for what it is. Does a lot of work for its size.
