Boy, I couldn't agree more. I find the deluxe joystick on the D models very comfortable to use. Mine just kind of falls in to your hand when you sit down.
Job Well Done, New Holland !!

The Case 580M we have at work has a nice joystick too. It's located in the right spot for your hand when using the arm rest and the grip is contored. It even has two push buttons for your thumb, the transmition disconnect and the diff lock, very convenent.

My Kubota L4610 HST cab, L782 loader, came with joystick. It is a little in the way of getting in on that side of cab, but works great. I say it is so smooth I can thread a needle with it.

I don't play computer games but I've seen pics of the handpiece on controllers. The NH Class III Deluxe sure feels like the computer game controllers look. I agree with MarkinNH and Pineridge - this is what you are looking for.....

I've attached a picture - the joystick is mounted to the right fender and has an orange face-plate. The center of the joystick has two thumb buttons for a high/low speed selection.

The one PineRidge Ranch has On his NH is what i am looking for.

I looked on Kubotas website, but there was no mention of it. Anyone know where I can get a pic of the Kubota one?

thanks for your help.

Some of the skid steer loaders have a nice control they call a "pilot-operated joystick control" They feel more like a computer joystick than a conventional loader joystick because there is no heavy spring to overcome. And you can feather them very nicely. Maybe the joystick is a low pressure, low flow circuit that controls a bigger circuit doing the work?

I suppose you have the same joystick I have. Mine is fender mounted, and is too low and to close to the HPL lever. I have grabbed the wrong stick 5 or 6 times already. Also, that low stick is nice while sitting, but I can't reach it while I'm standing up. I prefer the "high and front" location, although it blocks egress from the tractor on the right side.

Is this joystick that NH uses on the TC models universal to other brands as well?? and does it use cables?

Made 'em. 1" box steel about 3' high. There are already holes under the stickers on your loader uprights - bolted there. Drilled and bolted on mirrors - trailer mirrors from Autozone. Bolted on floods and ran hot wire down the center of the "stalks" (which serve as grounds.)

Only complaint - they are not spaced wide enough to see clearly around the back. I will be attaching the swing-away stalks that came with the heads to widen my view.

Mark
