Bought a 4310

I had the rear mounts on the wrong sides!



Sometimes I come up with solutions to a problem that impress even me. (Don't ever say this to yourself or your spouse) It is sure to trigger an event so stupid it will make you wonder how you get dressed in the morning.

The loader is mounted and functional. Will do a thread on the generic cylinders.

That is the reason I wanted you to post some pics. Had the sneaky feeling that was what was happening, as I recall having to mount those rear mounts when new when doing some set-up work, and getting them on the right and left side correctly was not a simple, straight-forward, easy-to-figure task. The differences are subtle, and glad you figured out the problem..

Glad the fix was cheap.

I'm interested to see what you have done for your 3rd function.

I ordered my grapple from MTL last night. I have everything ready for the 3rd function but I didn't bother putting it on yet. I have finished the loader handle part and the rest is sitting on the work bench. I will do a thread on this when I get the grapple in and connected.

Finally got my whole package together and I'm a little less enthused. I did a first impressions review on another thread.

It looks good though.

It does look beefy.

It looks a bit heavy for it. Especially when you consider the distance that it sticks farther out. Mass x distance.

Have you checked your hydraulic pressure?

No I haven't.

This tractor has another feature I haven't tried yet. Next time I use it I plan to turn off motion control and turn on load control.

I need to drag this mucky mess out with my backhoe before I try to sift it out again. That should make a difference.

One of these days I will test the hydraulic pressure.

Got a chance to try it out again today. Went a little better. Planning to add some weight to my disc harrows for ballast.

Using load control and turning off motion control makes a difference.

You don't turn off motion control. Its either fast or slow pedal response. Like long or short roll distance when releasing the pedal. Load match is doing your stall prevention. Glad it can handle the weight of the brush.

I stand corrected. :confused3:

I set the motion match switch for quicker acceleration/deceleration response levels, and to reduce machine starting/stopping distances.

The stuff I need to move is not just brush hence my initial difficulties. It is debris packed in mud. The load in the pic was some of the looser stuff I shook some of the mud out of. Looks like I will end up raking and moving some of this stuff several times to get the dirt out.

Today's mission is to drag a bunch of steel out of the shed and decide what to so for increasing the ballast. I am not going to consider loading the tires right now if ever since they will need replacing and I'm not a fan of loaded tires anyway.
