Read articles →A dealership VP walks through a floor-model 1835M (actually the 40-hp 1840M here), spending most of his time on three standout features: adjustable hydrostat pedal sensitivity, a max/min speed dial, and the automatic throttle management system. He briefly touches on the hydrostatic warranty advantage over shuttle-shift clutches and mentions a $31,000 price. No loader operation or field demo, best for shoppers weighing M-series comfort features against the E-series.
Posted by the VP of Chattanooga Tractor & Equipment, a dealership channel, so the walkaround is sales-leaning and enthusiastic about the product they've just stocked.
The floor-model 1840M with front-end loader and quick attach bucket is priced at $31,000.
The hydrostat unit is housed within the transmission, so it falls under the powertrain warranty, unlike a dry clutch, which is a wear item not covered.
It sets the maximum or minimum speed for the hydrostat and adjusts the sensitivity of the hydrostat pedal, reducing jerky forward-reverse response.
At low throttle, if you ask for more power from the hydrostat pedal, the engine senses the demand and automatically raises RPMs to match it.
