Building a house on 7 acres this summer and with our last snow this past week, have finally got the chance to start prepping for the build. I installed the thumb on my 425 mini hoe this morning and was very impressed with how it helped with the 15 to 20 trees a buddy and I cut down. He cut and I kept busy stacking logs and making brush piles.
I needed to get everything cleaned out before the bulldozer comes so was amazed how
the 425 speeded up the process. I bought it last August but didn't get a chance to use it much until now. I have 35 hours on it now and love it. I have noticed that occasionally, the controls are unresponsive in which case, i usually immediately try doing the opposite and try again for which it responds. It did this several times today. Is this common with the 425? I operate it mostly at about half to 2/3 throttle if that has anything to do with it.
