This has me curious, I'm going to give it a test on mine when I get it out next.

Interesting, I've had similar experience with a L3130. In med range going up a steep hill with loader and counter weight if I operated the loader the tractor would die in a cloud of black smoke. And I mean die!

See, I really don't understand this?

I agree. I didn't mean that my tractor nearly stalled; it never came close to stalling and ground speed barely slowed. Something doesn't seem right if your tractor dies that way. Although I was reading a thread the other day about DK40/45 owners stalling their tractors while using the loader and NO I'M NOT KNOCKING KIOTI TRACTORS! I just didn't know it was possible to stall a tractor using hydraulics -- I figured the relief would kick in and save the day before that would happen :confused:

Just weird to me. I've never had a tractor bog down using hydraulics, 3 Kubotas & a large Case/David Brown. But I've also never had a HST???

Well you reckon we have heard the last from Fred from hOOterville? Or will he calm down a bit and show us his build? I know an awful lot of us would like to see how it comes out..

Don't forget that my L3130 with loader and 1300# of weight on the 3pt weighs in around 7000#. That is a lot of weight for 31hp, and add going up a steep grade. I am not surprised at all that it died in a cloud of smoke. That is why I traded up to the L5740. Weighing even more going up the same grade in high range and it will power right on over. Nothing like an extra 30hp!!
