Thanks - I have been getting a lot of seat time with her and LOVE the ride... couple interesting things I have learned that are very different than my Bota...
1) after you turn the wheel as far as it goes (and this thing turns on a dime - I can't imagine the SS people) - if you keep a fair amount of pressure the power steering pump must have a bypass because the wheel keeps sorta turning really slowly but the wheels don't go any farther... no big deal but the first time I felt that I was like WTF!?
2)the front grill that looks so cool LOVES to plug with fuzzy things - so I have to take a trip back to the barn to blow things out...
3) the FEL when you flop the bucket down to get a sharp edge for grading work in reverse does not "hold position" perfectly - it has a little slop in the cylinders... nothing too much but that translates to the end of the bucket not being where you thought it would when backing up and dragging our gravel... the fix is simple - line it up - lower the bucket and then when there is ground contact just "tighten up" the cylinders with a tap on the stick...
This tractor is amazing! LOVE LOVE LOVE it!
