The owner covers the open-platform layout, eight-speed gearbox, 60-inch loader bucket, radiator screen, and plastic fenders, and flags the externally-mounted lights as a real weak point. Most useful as a candid sizing reality-check, he found it underpowered for wet ground, for buyers deciding whether this compact fits their workload.
Posted by the HarringtonHillsFarm channel; the owner-operator perspective is genuine but the video is a brief informal walkaround with no channel description to clarify further context.
The owner found it pretty powerful and able to lift quite a bit, but not heavy duty enough for his wet land, leading him to trade it in.
The externally mounted lights are plastic and pop off or break if you hit a branch, which the owner called the only big flaw.
It has a 60-inch bucket with a radiator guard and a screen in front of the radiator to keep out debris while brush hogging.
It has eight gears, with high and low ranges plus 1, 2, 3, and 4, along with PTO, throttle, and bucket controls.
