Well Scotty, life is very complicated. I have 17 hours on it now, located all the missing manuals, Foton 700 series operators, Parts, engine. I have installed a quick hitch.3,500 Lb FEL. Backhoe and tooth bar are next.
I have easily brushed hogged my overgrown fields, plenty of power, no overheat problems, 70 turbo hp.
I had to set the tractor aside in 10/12 for a little problem called Bladder Cancer. My next surgery is Jan. 4, 2011 and will be recovering in a nursing home about two months. We will see how I feel I the spring after I mend.
A lot depends on how well the dealership preps the tractor. I had issues with selecting gears without the manual. I still need to adjust the clutch pack to engage the PTO.
dang, hope everything turns out for you. its never fun when a doctor works on or around mr happy.
