1428V Hydro, I often find myself in high range just because reverse is so darned slow, any way you can speed up reverse in ALL THREE RANGES?
And I dont need lectures on going fast in reverse being dangerous and all, some jobs simply take to long with the slow reverse in this thing.

Thanks,

DuaneW.

On the hydro model 1428, reverse should be 80% as fast as forward for safety reasons. There is a stop bolt that limits the amount of hydro pedal travel that can be adjusted. NOTE: If the stop bolt for forward or reverse is adjusted too far allowing swash plate to "bottom out" internally, you may find yourself buting a new hydro. Suggest you purcahse a service manual and verify pedal adjustment is correct.

If it was 80% as fast, or 20% slower I would be HAPPY, Will talk to my dealer since speeds are supposed to be that close, reverse in High is about 1/2 speed of low range. And you really have to stand on the pedel to get that out of it.

Thanks,
