We have IH 656 hydro with loader. New rebuilt engine, just changed all the filters and oils. The tractor is just great for our chores and other work around the 8 acres of land my parents purchased. Its been working great at moving concrete slabs.. digging and everything. The problem is my father and i had a heated argument on how the tractor is run. Rpm and how i run the loader. I used to work full time 70+ hours a week for a farmer and basicly my jobs would be on a list and i would use what ever equipment was necessary to get the job done. Payloader/ 8630 with front blade, alot of other loaders, so ive had alot of experiance over the years with harldey nothing breaking down. The point is, i always run the tractor at around pto speed and just take it easy with the loader so i dont break anything. And i get the job done. My father barely idles the tractor and almost stalls it when he is on it. We have had a many discussians on the fuel usage, but ive always told him compared to the 3 hours of toiling aounr compared to me getting the job done in 30 min should not even be a argument. But i also tried to explain to him that its better for the hydrolics cooling when running the tractor at a higher speed, Am i right? basicly he has been on my arse everytime iam on the tractor. Any info would be appreciated in solving this argument
