| No video, however I use mine all the time. It's also reversible. Has a manual trip however one of the handiest snap coupler implements I've ever used. |

A flat level surface for storing is probably a good thing for hooking and unhooking. My SC blade can be a pain to connect because it doesn't have a home that is flat and level with where the tractor sets when hooking up. The blade can be tipped to cut heavier on one side and that will complicate things when hooking up. If your dirt scoop has been tweaked out of level a bit that could cause problems ???? ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

They can be a pain to hook up by yourself . I am sure there is a video of someone backing up and connecting lift latches from the seat ,,,, but I have never been able to . The cross bars on lift arms keep from them from swinging to the side and make it hard to hook up . I used mine on a Ser I D-17 and moved a lot of dirt with one . Turned it backwards and it was like using a little skid steer . Slower than a bobcat but faster than a wheelbarrow. ------------- You only need to know 3 things to be a plumber;Crap rolls down hill,Hot is on the left and Don't bite your fingernails 1964 D-17 SIV 3 Pt.WF,1964 D-15 Ser II 3pt.WF ,1960 D-17 SI NF,1956 WD 45 WF. |
