He explains loader capacity at the pins versus in-bucket, clarifies the no-DPF/DEF mechanical-injection benefit, covers the 3PH depth-stop feature, and frankly names the machine's limitations for ranching use. Best for homestead buyers comparing sub-26hp compact tractors.
Presented by Cody Johnson of J5 Tractors, a dealership channel, so the walkaround carries a sales perspective, though the presenter does volunteer honest limitations.
At the loader pins it is 1,560 pounds, but in the bucket it is probably around 1,150 to maybe 1,200 pounds if you stretch it.
No, since it is under 26 horsepower it avoids Tier 4 EPA regulations and uses a mechanical injection pump with no onboard computer or ECM.
The loader is not going to be powerful enough for feeding cattle, though it handles spreading rock, box blading, moving dirt, and gardening well.
You tighten it at your preferred cutting height so you can raise the implement to cross a driveway, then lower it back to the exact same height each time.
