He covers real-world use of the grapple and front loader for clearing trees and spreading gravel, tire choices, ballast box necessity for stability on slopes, the three-point hitch's limited drop range, hydraulic coupler pressure surprises, and a practical fuel-filling tip. Best for prospective B2601 buyers wanting candid early impressions rather than specs.
An owner-operator sharing hands-on impressions from his own rural property, with no apparent commercial affiliation.
Without rear weight the back wheel could lift off the ground on slopes or in divots, making it unstable and unsafe when using front attachments like the grapple.
No, the arms stop a bit above the ground, so the owner uses blocks underneath to relieve pressure when attaching implements like the ballast box.
The owner chose industrial tread tires instead of AG tires, and reports they dig in well on hills and through the forest with no problems.
The owner found the quick connects hard to push in due to high pressure in the hydraulic lines, and his dealer confirmed this is normal.
