What about the seperator clutch and unloader auger? Also if I understand they come with hyrdo and gear drive. So the hydro traction drive is the same as my old A with variable speed?

That is what I was thinking on the controls. Parts are readily available fast also in my area. From what I understand most want the hydro. I can see how they are nice because you can go as slow as you need to.   [Reply]  [No Email]

If has a variable speed, then it is electric over hydraulic. We had an M, M2, and M3 and never experienced troubles with the electrical. They work well.   [Reply]  [No Email]

Rocker switches send current to the solenoids on each hyd valve, rather than a mechanical linkage. Seperator clutch is electric. Unloading auger belt is tightened by hyd cyl. Hydro drive is not a gear drive......hydro has multiple gear ranges with infinite fwd/reverse speeds and instant change of direction in each range.   [Reply]  [No Email]
