Case IH 585 vs Ford NH 4630

[slowzuki]

My only comment about the emergency brake is I don't know how well they work because the:
2x 584
1x 585
2x 485
1x 685

That I have operated, have it gone before I ever used the machine. The 585 only had 1500 hours on it too.

The only main brake issue I ever had was I had to bleed a 584's brakes once. Took no time at all.

The emergency brake is an issue when it isn't disengaged when moving the tractor. The fact that it is a transmission brake it is easy to over power with the engine in lower gears for someone that is not used to the tractor.

The clutch has not been a problem other then from people who ride it. Even with this tractor group being considered the first manual shuttle shift do to the lay out of the controls the clutches have not been an issue for the ones we have sold and have thousands of hours of use with out clutch problems.
