Auto throttle is wonderful isn't it? I only take mine out of auto throttle when I am inching my bucket or tractor into very small spaces where I have to lean off to one side to see the edge of the bucket and my toe might not be completely steady on the pedal. If the hand throttle is dialed back, it won't suddenly lurch in "turtle mode".
