He walks through cab controls (manual cruise, auto throttle, PTO engagement, three-point hitch adjustment), notes concerns about tippiness on hilly ground, and compares specs and pricing against the John Deere 3033R and 359. Best for shoppers weighing the same three brands, not for detailed loader or mowing demos.

No, it does not have down pressure, though it does have a turnbuckle to adjust height, unlike some other models he researched.
It is manual, not electronic. You rev the pedal up and lock a lever down as you go, which holds the speed.
He felt it was tippy when demoed unloaded on a sloped yard and was concerned about using it on hilly property, possibly needing wheel spacers with loaded tires.
The Yanmar holds about seven gallons while the John Deere 3033R holds about eleven gallons, which he liked about the Deere.
