Hello all
Looking at buying a 5083E with OOS and 12 x12 PowerReverser. A couple of questions to owners out there...
a) Can you use the column mounted Power Reverser without using the clutch. i.e like backwards and forwards using the loader in a stockpile just using the hand lever?
b) The 1-2-3-4 gear lever, is it synchromeshed? Can you go up through the gears and down through the gears (using the foot clutch of course) with the tractor in motion? Or do you have to be stopped to use the 1-2-3-4 lever?
c) Basic services - I'm no mechanic, how hard are the engine oil filter, hydraulic/ transmission oil filter, and fuel filters to change?
TIA
Regards from Downunder
