He covers a hydraulic pressure fix, upgrades made (toolbox, LED lights, air cleaner, mirror), and honest gripes, shallow three-point lift, an undersized front loader shared with the one-series, and round-bale lift limits. He's now trading up, comparing quotes on 2038R/3039R/3046R/3043D. Best for buyers weighing 1025R vs 2025R capability.
An owner-operator on a small hobby farm sharing hands-on, long-term impressions rather than a dealer pitch.
The hydraulic pressure read about 1975 PSI, below the 2020-2050 PSI spec. The dealer adjusted it up to 2250 PSI, and the owner has been happy with the loader since.
Yes, the 2025R three-point lift is shallow, measured about the same as the one-series. Many owners add an adjustable lift link for about four extra inches of lift.
The owner says he is now beyond the loader's limits, able to lift bales only partway, not high enough to dump them into a round bale feeder.
If you stay strictly residential in your own yard, the one series or 1025R is fine, but for any work outside that, he strongly recommends the 2025R.
