    Comparison  L4701DT vs. MX4800DT

    Trying to decide between a L4701DT a MX4800DT. The MX is $1,000 more. They are very similar in specifications and power but since the MX weighs a little more I would think it would be more robust. Help me decide. Thanks.

    L4740 HST Console Panel

    My console panel shows very little - hours, MPH, PTO, fuel and temperature. I read in the Owners Manual that it should show the rabbit and turtle for H-DS, HST Mode and should also show what HST gear it is in (L,M or H) plus a few other things. Could possibly fuses be blown?
