Recently bought a rx7620 power shuttle. I don't think the 76hp option is on offer in USA, because of emission regs I suspect, but the only thing I can tell is different is the ECU settings to achieve 76hp, and that we don't have the t4 final filters or regen' needs.
Have had a Uniforest winch for a few years. Very happy with it. If you can afford to do so, I'd suggest a radio remote controlled winch. My next winch will have this. There are so many times it would be useful. Most of the good brands offer it but a heap of variance in pricing. Tajfun were much too expensive when I was looking. They are Slovenian, and the other two Slovenian manufacturers (Uniforest and KRPAN) were far cheaper. Not sure who does KRPAN in USA but Hud-son does Uniforest and they were good to deal with.
Your tractor will handle a bigger winch than that Norse model. Bigger would also be a more useful counterweight if you have a FEL.
My current and evolving list of points on the tractor:
Liking
- power shuttle
- ground clearance
- how efficient it is on fuel
- how quiet it is.
Not liking but have gotten used to
- not seeing the fork tips
- how easy it is to hit the forward/reverse lever when getting off the tractor
- slow FEL speed
- no hoop on the FEL for the implement sprung latching levers to hit against to release and lock the pins (euro hitch).
- no trailer lights socket (although waiting to see if this was an oversight by the dealer).
- slowish road speed
- flex in the steps, but that's common on many tractors these days it seems.
Ambivalent about
- PTO engagement lever/mushroomy thing.
- seems next to impossible to neutralise the 3rd service hydraulic pressure, making hooking up hoses a mare. Will ask them to show me what I'm doing wrong when take it in for the 50 hr service in a few weeks.
