I bought a 474 in June as well. Currently shopping for oils for my 50hr change. Having trouble finding a hydraulic oil i like locally. Bought the full filter kit from my dealer and found the same kit online for half the price from dealer in Colorado.

Had the dealer load the rear tires, add a plug-in block heater, and the 3rd function kit down the loader. Should make for a comfortable, year round work horse.
Who else has one of these or the 494/574?

I have a 2024 474 w/ cab. 138 hours. No regen thus far. Only issue I've had was a the valve that opens for heat/AC failed and the dealer replaced it. It was dripping red fluid from above the cab onto the floor steering wheel and floor .Said very unusual repair. The heat works well and so does the AC. I'm considering wheel spacers to widen the rear stance 3" on each wheel for more stability. Otherwise a lot of tractor for $$$$.Decided I wanted to get back into a HST transmission Tractor.

Get Brotek spacers, they are the best bang for the $$$, I put 1.5 spacers mostly to make room for chains in the winter. But added 3'' overall.I have a 2024 474 w/ cab. 138 hours. No regen thus far.

Thanks for the heads up on the valve leak. Will watch for it. Spacers will probably affect warranty and will put more load on bearings.I have a 2024 474 w/ cab. 138 hours. No regen thus far.
