He points out every control (shuttle shift, 4WD engage, DPS regen, loader valve routing), covers service points (oil, transmission fluid, air filter, fuel/water separator), and reels off real specs: 1,300 lb bucket lift, 87.4 in lift height, 11-gallon tank, 2,734 lb weight, 64 in width. No loader or backhoe work is actually run. Good for buyers comparing controls and specs before purchase.
An individual owner sharing hands-on impressions of his own recently-purchased tractor, not a dealer or professional reviewer.
He does not do a load of work that often, felt gear driven had less to go wrong, and it was considerably cheaper than the HST model.
About 1,300 pounds. Without ballast in back it has no problem lifting the back end of his tractor, though other tractors offer higher capacity.
No, get it when you buy the tractor. Adding it later is difficult and a lot more costly, so consider it at purchase.
Roughly 64 inches wide at its widest point with Agra tires, and about 15 feet 6 inches long with the bucket curled.
