The side link did adjust. the hole would make it lower, but also lowers lift power.

I’ve had a HST L3560 for the last couple of years and recently purchased an M4-071D w/ shuttle. I may not be the best person for advice because I’m not an experienced shuttle shift user, but for more precise work I just don’t see how you can match the HST. When I’m out working in field, I...

ok very good. I’ll check that!

May I be ignorant enough to ask what to check?😩

M4 with about 15 hours on it has just started making a loud screeching that starts right after startup and last about 10-15 seconds. Any known fixes for this?

Lowering the sidelinks about an inch and a half did the trick! Thanks for the help !

Or is the side link adjustable? Maybe I could extend both sidelinks 2 inches?

I’m still trying to get kinks worked out from upgrading from 3560 to M4. I believe my last challenge is that my 3 pt hitch will not go low enough to pick up a couple of my implements. I need it to drop about 2-3 more inches and it would allow me to hook up my implements using my quick hitch. I...

The elevated platform is a good idea! I may just place my front end loader attachments on my gooseneck trailer. That should work! Thanks for the help guys. and holy smokes yes that’s a clean tractor

Probably so... this was my first change out ever on this tractor but I was just surprised at the lack of view. To make matters worse I had dropped off my bucket and was trying to pick up a grapple which for me anyways requires more sensitivity or else you’ll tip it over. I’m imagining the bucket...

This could work!!

Lol, my tractor has SSQA. But it you can’t see the front then it doesn’t help much. 😂

Any tips on lining up front end loader for larger tractors? I previously had a l3560 and could at least halfway see what I was doing when changing front end attachments. I tried for the first time today with m4-71 and basically had to get lucky to get it hooked up. Any tips would be appreciated!

I dont know of many differences. One thing the dealer told me was unique about the m4d-071 was that it has a declutch button on the shifter. The proper way to use this, is just to hold it down to shift gears while driving correct? Are there any other functions for it? By the way, thunder, your...

I gotcha. Thanks for the help. That makes sense. And how often do you use high gear? Other than driving from point A to B. what should you use for mowing or discing? On the 3560, I stayed in medium gear most of the time unless doing heavier work so this Hi/LO only option has me caught in between.
