we had a new 6115m in march 14. When this tractor was delivered it was low on power as you had experienced. it went in and was put on the dyno and read in the region of 90hp on the pto. Some tweaking was done and was slightly improved.

We have an 11ton richard western which it wouldnt tip unless full of oil. so we fill it up with transmission oil. whilst buck raking on a steep pit during maize harvest last year the back end over heated.

The tractor went in and was returned the same day telling us we had left the handbrake on!
We put the tractor on a four furrow plough the next day and it over heated again.
This time the air pump was said to be the fault. and was replaced...

The tractor has done 1500 hours and is still crap. it is sluggish at low revs and still wont tip trailers properly.

We should have sent it back asap but as a loader tractor on a dairy farm we cant go a day without it.

Im guessing the trailer has a single acting ram on it.. this is probably quite a big multistage cylinder?. You can get extra hyd capacity with a tank. This holds an extra 10 ltrs of oil. I think this would help.

Another thing does it lift the FEL fast enough?..

I thought leaving the handbrake on was a thing of the past, all modern machines I have driven scream at you if you try and pull away with it on?
 
The dealer has now put the larger tank on.

Them telling us that the handbrake had been left on was rubbish. I think it's because they didn't know what the problem was

The speed of the hydraulics is another story in itself. But the answer to that question is no.

Then they need to flow test at the scvs.. then the loader quick coupler and see what the pressue vs flow is... and before its out of warranty.

The handbrake if it was left on will be stuffed now... so im not sure thats correct either.
