toolcat traction and pulling power

[laurencen]

this weekend got the S590 skidsteer well and truly stuck, slid off the driveway and down the ditch, tried for a half hour to move just got worse so got the wife to drive the Toolcat chained it up and she started pulling, for the first 20 feet just dragged it along the ditch but finally pulled it out, the traction control is way better that the diff lock of previous models

this was the first time the wife has driven the Toolcat, she has always been the side kick, she enjoyed the time taking it a spin down the driveway and back, now have to get her blowing snow next snowfall

good to hear. I got my S185 stuck a few times, didn't have the Toolcat then to pull it out so used trucks/SUV's. Is your driveway paved? Any pics of the situation? Just curious what are the conditions were.

driveway is gravel, quite a drop off the sides, sorry no pictures could take one at the ruts, I will take one later today, doubt my truck would have pulled it out unless I loaded the box up, you can see where the Toolcats tires ran
