I picked up my new Workmaster 55 on Fri. Man it's good to have a 3 ph that works good.
I took over to a friends house and put hay out for him the first day. His is in the shop. Brought it back and did some dirt work and tried the 4wd. That answered questions I had about do I really need 4wd. Spent time yesterday putting a hay spear on it. I used the carriage for the pallet forks to mount a removable spear.
2 things. No turning radius. I have to bump the brake. And there is a terrible whine in the rear end. Dealer says it's normal. It did quiten down some at 5 hrs in low forward. But not reverse and not in high. I guess I better go use it some more.
