Best for buyers weighing whether the extra horsepower over a 25hp compact actually matters in daily use.
Posted by the 4-LOW channel, an owner sharing firsthand impressions from swapping his own tractor at the dealership.
Yes. At about 1500 RPM in high range, the Workmaster 40 climbed a gravel road grade that the 25hp tractor could not maintain speed on even at full throttle around 2600 RPM.
It has a diesel oxidation catalyst and diesel particulate filter combined into one unit, plus a small turbo, which the 25hp tractor did not need.
Find the pigtail wiring tucked near the hood, run it to where you mount the light, and add an inline switch since the wiring is hot all the time.
He runs about 15 PSI in the rear tires and 35 PSI in the front, which is not exactly per the manual but gives a slightly better ride.
