So while on the topic of loss of power in high range....does anyone have any issue with operating a backhoe with the NX4510 HST or HST in general? I did notice in the beginning the HST was less HP than geared but hasn't presented an big issue.
Operation of the KB2485 backhoe seems fine to me with HST. Any one have some input on operation of a backhoe with HST versus geared?
HST or Geared doesn't affect the hydraulics (loader, backhoe, 3 pt) as it uses a gear pump mounted directly on the engine and the hydraulics don't use all the power of the engine anyways. It needs a margin left for drive and/or PTO work.
Steering also uses a dedicated gear pump.
