[QUOTE="Allen, post: 423618, member: 389"] Yeah, these compact utility tractors are handy as hell, but there are limitations on them. My 4120 weighs about 3,700 lbs itself, and around 4,800 with the loader. The loader is rated for a little over 2,300 lbs, and it's fine so long as you are on level ground. If you have even just a couple degrees of slope to the terrain, one must add weight to the rear for safety's sake and you best be really careful. I've lifted a single rear wheel several times as I pushed its limits arguing with trees or sod, usually when one has the load on the bucket far off of center. I can reverse the rims to get a wider footprint, and I am sure that would help a bunch, but then the tractor would be wider than the bucket, blade, or tiller. [/QUOTE]
