I would be draining and refilling .

Would the same be true for front axle?80/90 vs Sudt? Are they compatible?

Thanks for the advice

The prior owner of the M4 071 used Napa premium hydro fluid for all the hydraulic services during the 1800 hrs he owned it with no apparent problems. I have always used Kubota Sudt for service on my other tractors. Can Sudt be mixed safely with other “compatible” fluids?

Definitely liking the cab and particularly the AC , heat and radio that work. Heat and radio were NFG in the 6040❄️

Had to look twice at it to see the bend🔍

The right hand arm is slightly bent but it looks worse when photo’d from the side ,

No, the arms are not bent, they were quite muckled on the 6040

No, the arms are not bent, they were quite muckled on the 6040. Even with the buddy seat the cab is comfortably roomy.

Skeets, I’ll be doing what I have been doing till now, mostly logging in the dry times, snow plowing and usual heavy hauling. I hope to not be busting all the stuff I broke on the 6040! Should have titled it M4 071

I tried posting this in the original thread but keep getting error messages that page is not available, so here they are now. Delivered yesterday !

True compared to the 6040 it’s not that big a jump but it’s too big to fit in the old drive shed so a new home for it is on the horizon 😁 I sold the 6040 in 2 days!

Well, I bought the tractor and he’ll deliver it by this weekend. I will post pictures. It’s a lot of tractor 😁

Finally made contact with the owner and plan to see it this weekend. Anyone have experience with this machine and what I should be looking for?

I have not seen the tractor or spoken to the owner yet. I need to arrange a meeting. I’ll update when I have done so. The machine is not too far from me.
