How do you find it apart from that? Do you tow with it or just yard work?

Is the dualtec transmission proving reliable? I’d like to change my Manitou for something newer but used, so just asking.

dualtec going well, had a couple of what looked like major oil leaks, but were only O rings, and caused by nothing more than someone not tightening up the respective fittings! Which is very annoying, and another story. But not a fault of the transmission, mine was simply not assembled with care.
As a machine though, I can’t fault it, and have been very impressed with it so far, however I haven’t put high hours on it.

Have you checked the tracking on the rear axle?

although the tyre wear may simply be due to it being driven on the rear axle when in 2WD?
