FEL - hydrolic Self Leveling...? or Not

[ccs]

Hi Forum Members...need some quick advice and opinions..getting ready to finalize my order for an M5-111HDC12.

I am getting the Front End Loader and dont know whether I should get the option of the Hydrolic Self Leveling Valve for the FEL or just get the Standard Valve.....

I wont be doing any stack with FEL -- mostly moving gravel or dirt on our hunting property or pushing over small - mid size trees...

If its useful and a god option Im ok with the $ for it...but is it better to have it or not have it....? Thanks

I guess the big question is ...... what does this option cost?

For dirt work it's a good option, makes loading and unloading the bucket faster.
and if you need it to level an area that too will be far faster.

For tree work I think it's the opposite, I like to be able to manipulate a grapple around in all different manners and self leveling can fight you on that.

I've decided to NOT get the self leveling...I dont see it as a must have option and cant be that difficult to manipulate the bucket with the thumb switch.
