The video covers a brief cab and controls walkthrough, grapple work moving large logs, turf tire performance on wet ground, fuel consumption at low RPM, the self-leveling loader, and one minor hydraulic fitting leak he fixed himself. Best for shoppers weighing the H24 for light property work.
An owner-operator sharing candid, unscripted impressions from their own storm-damaged property, with no apparent dealer or brand affiliation evident in the transcript.
The third function lines on the front end started dripping oil after about 10 hours. Tightening the fittings with wrenches stopped the leak, and it had not returned 15 to 20 hours later.
Running between 1,300 and 1,500 RPM, the tractor sips fuel. A half tank can last about half a day of grapple work, holding around 5 gallons total.
The turf tires have big knobbies and handled wet yard work well without leaving ruts, giving good ride quality and traction during rainy conditions.
The owner was told the loader lifts around 1,400 lb, and he used it to grab a large wet cottonwood log estimated at around 1,200 lb.
