New L 3901 HST has very disappointing FEL hydraulics. Won't even lift the rear of the tractor off the ground. I have no ballast, and no fluid in the rear tires. I can't crowd into a pile of aggregate, curl the bucket, and raise the load for transport. I have rented Kioti, and 1 other brand tractor of similar size and weight, and never found loading and lifting a loaded bucket to be an issue.
And of course the dealer says gosh we never have issues with these tractors.
Sorry to say if issue isn't resolved during my 50 hour service in a couple weeks I will consider trading
I am going to put my forks on and see how many square of shingles I can handle, then see if it's anywhere near the published capacity of the FEL.
Just wondering if anyone has comments, or suggestions.
