"I love the tractor. I bought it new. It is a real workhorse, other than the hydraulic power take-off. I only use it for light bush hogging, and always started and stopped it at low rpm's (was warned when I bought it). First, the power take-off went out at 350 hours. NH was quick to replace it under warranty, but the dealer had no clue as to why it failed so early. About 350 hours later, it has gone out again, and of course this time out of warranty. NH won't do anything about it this time. I don't want to spend $2,500 to fix it if it is just going to go out again in a couple years."
