We have had this tractor about a year and a half. We use it for mowing, snow plowing, landscaping, bucket work, garbage removal and probably more stuff I can't think of. overall we love it.
I park my El Camino each year for the winter and got it in a few years ago for spring cleaning and driving. The clutch stuck over the winter so I ended up raising the rear wheels and starting it up. I brought the RPMs a bit and hit the brakes. Took a few times but it finally broke loose. I installed a new clutch kit when I rebuilt the motor. The original clutch was in with 127k miles and about 39 years from the factory. Nice feature on the tractor to be able to lock the clutch disengaged.
Thanks Dave, It really does come in handy. I looked for used for months (years really). Pricing is so high new made sense. Thanks for your continued support and thanks for watching, John
That is a "healthy " load in the bucket. With the amplifying bucket-linkage there is a "LOT of Articulation " for easy,full & safe loads ( No "way up in the air " for a 2/3 load. The B's L's,& Lx's of the k-b-ta's fall on there face [ NO bucket-linkage]. My MX5200 ( with bucket-linkage) loads just OK, but my Massey-Ferguson 1736m power-shuttle loader almost "self-loads" THANKS to the highly advanced technology-geometry loader bucket amplifying link bars. This machine seams very similar, but is way-way LOUDER---WOW! Thank you for the great Video Sir and happy safe tractoring.
The Workmaster is a wonderful tractor. Thank goodness you can still buy a good solid tractor without all the electrical gizmos. One that will still be working 50 years from now if taken care of.
Hi Rs; Yeah it is a great little tractor. Most guys hate all the electronics that fail in a couple years. Too bad its only 25 and under hp. Thanks for the great comment!! John
@@vegitobluekkx2069 No Way!! I think they hold up pretty well, just my opinion tho. Its really a LS made in Korea but the New Holland customer support hopefully will support the model for years. John Deere is good too but they also break down. Thanks for the comment!! John
You should always engage electric pto at full throttle on any machine. Anything less is going to be more wear and tear, even if it feels the opposite or counter intuitive.
Hi Richard; I have a steep hill I have to mow at the bbq. And I do have to gear it down for that. Its not the majority of the yard so it doesn't bother me. If the entire yard was all hill maybe I would get a higher hp tractor but I really want to avoid any and all DPF issues. It will mow anything its just a matter of how fast ya wanna go. And for the most part its as fast as I wanna go.Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching! John
