As far as quirks not much to speak of the pin brake system kinda sucks. Lifting the arm rest up releases the pin brake. This relys on cables, springs and cooperation from the machine. Sometimes when pulling the arm rest down the pins don't release. If you feel resistance rock the machine back and forth and they will release. You need to keep the compartment beneath your feet clean. This is where the above linkage is at. Don't try and power through the pin lock. You will shear the pins off in the hubs. The loader arm linkage will rattle after a few thousand hours. The 1845 series is the largest selling model of any skid steer. The resale of these machines especially '94 and newer is incredible. It is probably one of the most sought after machines on the used market. Very reliable, quite productive for their production period. As far as differences there were many upgrades to the machine most were incremental over the years. A CASE service tech can be more specific. 1994 saw improved hydraulic components and the lap bar went from two piece to one piece. 1995 the machines went from the 0range/red decals to the grey color. This may help in recognizing a particular model year from a distance.</p></blockquote><p></p>
