Tested out the YM2210D

Well, I had a chance to test it out the tractor today.

1st thing I did was went into some deep sand and the rear wheels started spinning so put it in 4WD and got right out of that - Then I used it to add sand to a horse stall and leveled it out - It works real well - And is just the right size for what I want it to do - The turning radius is awesome and it steers easily - The powershift is great, but I'm still getting used to it.

I thought the Controls on the Koyker loader would be a little smoother and more gradual than what they are - A little longer throw on the levers would be nice.

Anyway - It was great to put the tractor to work!

You can get a longer throw on the joystick by lengthening it. My joystick is threaded into the swash plate on the valve and has a locknut to hold it in place IIRC. It's a simple rod with the handle screwed on. If you have the room and it's not uncomfortable you can make the "vertical" portion of the rod longer with respect to the axis perpendicular to the valve face where the rod comes out. This will increase the "throw" angle and allow you to move the loader with more finesse (sp?).

Thanks, I'll check it out!
