Was wondering if I could stop the default power wheel from spinning while applying power to the other wheel. Trying to alternate traction plus tire steer in a muddy steep location. I think the answer is no, but thought I’d ask. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

On a GST can you use spit brakes and rear wheel differential lock at the same time? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for your replies and explanation. I’m relieved that this is typical. This saw is attached to the bucket. I can safely get to limbs around fields up to 20’ in the air without getting a head full of sawdust, and jumping out of the way of falling branches. Hydraulic unit is the only one...

Is it typical that the rear remotes and FEL do not function at the same time? Bought a hydraulic limb saw and can not raise or lower the FEL when the rear remote that drives the chain saw is engaged. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If you need more weight due to tire spin, you might try lowering your air pressure. Mine calls for 20 PSI, but I run about 16 and it has made a significant improvement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome to the forum. I'm in NOVA full time, with a family farm near the NC border in Patrick County. I usually take 29 and set the cruise control just at speed limit. Anything over draws draws blue lights. Every time I take 81 it rains, and then it's a roll of the dice what you will find...

Air pressure might be too high. I leave mine 3-4 pounds below recommended on the rear and that greatly increases traction. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the water warnings. I'll check fluids and intake locations for contamination.

Made it across fine. Having more trouble trying to figure out how to upload the video!:confused:

I match rpm to proper PTO speed when mowing etc. With FEL work, a high RPM makes for a jerky response with lots of bounce. FEL work is more about feel, especially when moving and operating the FEL. I'm about half throttle.

Wow! Such depth on this question. Amazing! Here is my take, although a little more simple. Air like in any PFD "personal flotation device" helps things float in liquid. Same goes for blow up pool toys. So a tire filled with air would want to float. A tire filled with water, or some...

I have an L4330 with fluid filled rear tires. Does this help, hinder or have no impact when crossing a moderate flowing river about 2' plus deep? I also have a FEL and bush hog attached. River usually is 8" to 12" deep and never a problem.

Nice detail. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If your FEL is jerky when you raise and lower it, your RPM's might be too high. Tone it down to the point that the movement is smooth, then add RPM's if it bogs a little. A lower gear will dramatically increase you scoop ability.

Do you have a toggle button that tells you PTO speed, mph, and gear you are in? My 4330 has one and I use it often.
