Keep in mind that the 3 point arms only apply a lifting force. If you load your trailer tail heavy the 3 point will not keep the tounge down. I've been very happy with my TC30.
Enjoy!

Very good point. That has never been a problem for me with my trailers (tent and utility) as I've typically had them loaded heavy in the front and used the fixed drawbar. However, with the utilty, there's been a few times with a load of wood harvested from our property that either I had some long logs hanging way out the back or dryer wood in the front and wetter wood in the back such that it was heavier in the back. Pretty sure if I was using the 3-pt instead of the fixed, that it would have lifted the 3-pt, maybe all the way up. Seems potentially kind of dangerous unless you pay more attention to trailer loading.

I have a 2002 tc30 with 9x3 trans and rino loader and it has been a good machine for the cost. It has plenty of pulling power in 4wd. In 2wd the rear r4 tires spin too easley even though they are filled. It seems unsteady on hillsides and I have to be overly careful. When I bought the tractor I needed a row crop tractor but the tractor leaves alot to be desired and there was not one available with ag tires at the dealer. It is harder to hook up impliments due to the wider rear tires and the lift arm adjustments. Mine has been a good machine though with only a few repairs. The first repair was the the coolent fitting on the right side of the engine. It began to leak and had to replace it. This was the second time that I had to replace one of these on a newholland. The power steering line rubbed aginst the crank pulley so it had to be replaced (it has some type of metric fitting). If I had to do it over I most likely buy it again.
