It also names actual issues encountered (a relay, PTO seal, hood latch) and two maintenance items missing from the manual. Best for buyers researching used units and long-term reliability.
Posted by the AllThingsDIY Mike channel, an owner sharing his own hands-on, multi-year experience with his personal tractor.
The owner bought it new in 2017 and has close to 500 hours on it, about 480 to 490 hours, after five years of use.
The owner reports three minor issues: a relay, a PTO seal, and a hood latch, calling them no big deal.
An inline hydraulic oil filter is not listed in the maintenance schedule, and a grease fitting near the oil fill is not in any manual either.
No, the owner says the tractor is not bogged down using pallet forks, a six-foot brush hog, or other attachments fully loaded in low or medium range.
