Best for viewers comparing brands generally rather than researching one specific model in depth.
Posted by Good Works Tractors, a business that sells tractor attachments and rotates its own equipment fleet, so commentary reflects their commercial usage experience rather than independent third-party testing.
There just wasn't a strong business reason to keep them anymore, so it was time to change out the machines and get new ones instead.
The hydraulic systems are incredibly smooth, including loader control, curling, rolling, lifting, and the three-point hitch, plus a smooth hydrostatic transmission and quick speed switch.
The owner sold the NS and kept the DK because the DK is a little smaller and more versatile, with power still around sixty horsepower and incredibly good value.
You select a range like high, medium, or low, then use a lever for forward or reverse, and pressing the foot pedal harder increases engine speed. The owner found switching direction repeatedly for precise work annoying.
