Planning on using it mostly for road maintenance, snow plowing, and general work around the property. I have a couple Q's though. The PO said its a little slow, and it is, but it runs really well, turns good, and doesn't shudder or anything. I changed out all 27 gallons of what ever was in there and it seems better but the hydro drive is still loud, but my buddies dad has a 2006 Mustang skid steer and it is loud too, are they normally fairly loud. Also I've been reading about this filter under the drivers feet. I actually had to excavate about 3 inches of loam but I finally found the floor under there. How the heck would one go abut removing the pedals. Do I have to remove the shaft collars on the pedal shaft because the set screws are pre-stripped on this model. I looked at it this week because I changed every other filter on the machine except this one, and I would like to change it but it seems a little crazy. Also where would one disconnect the linkages for the pedals, because there doesn't seem to be enough room where the pedals terminate on the left side of the loader frame and there is a cover over the linkages. Seems like a LOT OF WORK TO GET TO A FILTER. ANy help or criticism is appreciated, Brian</p></blockquote><p></p>
