They are wired somewhat differently than the standard Bobcat Advanced Hand Controls, though. That is, if you select one of the two patterns, you can get a Case-style control -- forward and reverse on both levers controls machine direction; left-right raises or lowers (curls or dumps) the bucket. If you select the other control pattern, the left joystick becomes machine direction while the right joystick controls all bucket functions. In this sense, it is similar to the Gehl/Cat control pattern. (And for this reason, doesn't have or need foot pedals.) StuZ, it would seem to me that the Gehl has too much motion. Operating a machine with palms down (resting on the top of the T-bar) seems to be a ergonomic faux-pas.</p></blockquote><p></p>
