Hi All,
I'm researching my next purchase. I've decided to go into the 30+HP/medium to large chassis size. I would like to ask the owners of the 3x20 and 4x20 series a few questions. Please let me know what model you have and if it's open or cab as well.
1: How stable is the tractor traversing inclined ground and also while working with the CX loader with heavy loads? (please let me know if yours is cab or open and if your tires are loaded)
2: Does the tractor have good traction when doing loader work or does it spin the tires when pushing into or pulling away? I'll be outfitting with loaded R4's
3: Have you found the CX loader to be lacking and not have enough power either when working with 72" HD bucket with dense material like stone dust or with pallet forks?
4: Will the 300cx loader lift a 1 ton pallet off a 4x4 PU bed or is it beyond its upper limit? How is the 400cx loader at lifting 1 ton on pallet forks?
5: How is E-Hydro upgrade in the real world? Do you find the rollout, load match and cruse control switches usefull or is it all hype fron the media people?
6: If you have the front snow blower on the 3x20, how is the performance in dense snow? How easy is the change over from loader to blower?
7: What if anything would you change if you could about the tractor?
8: Back to the loader, does the loader work well with the chassis, either 3x20/300CX or 4x20/400CX or does it have a tendency to twist the tractor up on 3 wheels from time to time?
Thanks in advance
Tom
