It covers cab comfort, AC, a bale-count monitor, and real gear/PTO chatter, plus tangents on hay pricing and baling history. Casual owners comparing old vs. new Massey comfort and features will get the most from it.
Posted by the Shots Life channel, an informal owner-to-owner video filmed while helping a friend bale hay, not a dealer or formal review.
The gear lever slips out of gear and is held with vice grips, the tractor rolled on hills, it needed a transmission rebuild, and it has brake cylinder problems.
It has air conditioning, heat, multiple vents, a spot for stereo speakers, a buddy seat, and a bale-count monitor connected to sensors on the baler.
The 4710 is described as smooth and quiet, so quiet the driver kept running RPMs too high, unlike the older tractor which had gear chatter issues.
