Hi guys,
I read a post earlier where someone mentioned that they only use high range on roads and not in 4wd. No I'm not suggesting that you would use 4wd on the road unless there was no traction. I am finding I prefer to keep my tractor in 4wd and typically slash the paddocks in either Hi 1st gear or second and most of the time I'm doing loader work I'm in 4wd. I've got a DS 3510, my place is undulating and can get a bit slippery in places. What's the general opinion, I know speed has a lot to do with surface conditions etc and steepness of terrain but typically what gears do you guys use and how often do you run your tractor in 4wd. And do you think using 4wd with the with the loader is an issue. The dealer didn't think using 4wd all the time is an issue.
Cheers Jason
