I no of several other drivers who have had these forced on them and like me have the same problems, company bosses should ask those that have to do the job whats best as this made my job 50% slower yet they wont have it. They wonder how i get my work done everyday the answer is easy i park this outside and revert to the side loader and original counter balance, and promptly get rollocked for not using it.
The one we have is identical and it would not do what your video shows, slightest hint of mud or rough terrian and you have trouble. And what about the hydraulics its impossible to stop them weaping a local hydraulic company blames the use of cheap fittings, which i tend to believe as we due to the number of rubber pipes which chafe in numerous points we have had pipes split and those that have been changed now do not leak !.
We have one of these at work gets stuck all the time, digs itself a hole chassis grounds and forget it. And what about the hydraulics very slow and leaks ???
@foggie323 Sorry you feel that way, obviously if you put anything in soft enough ground and bury it to the chassis I think you will get the same result you did. I think overall the video says it all pretty good for a non-rough terrain machine. This machine is completely hydrostatic designed for torque not speed, but it plenty fast to do the work it was designed for especially with long loads on it what it's designed to do. I think it would be a bit irresponsible to travel at high speeds
