[QUOTE="adam_farming, post: 7145503, member: 1983"] Been doing a bit more with the 574 recently, thought I'd share some experiences and a couple of questions. I dropped the loader off, and I mean dropped! We have the proper stand but I didn't have the bucket pushed up against anything which I have now found is a requirement. All was going well as I backed away but then the bucket slid forward and the frame hit the deck. Having had a google of this since it appears I'm not the only one to have done this!! Anyways we propped it back up and got it reattached later on. Will now remember to prop it against a wall! The reason for dropping the loader off was to go and do some topping on a meadow near the house. I'm hoping to tidy this up to maybe cut some hay off next year once I've acquired some equipment. We have a Woods topper which went really well on the 574. [ATTACH type="full" width="940px"]908875[/ATTACH] Then the loader went back on and we tidied up some soil piles. [ATTACH type="full" width="939px"]908876[/ATTACH] Now a couple of questions: What does the GEN light mean on the dashboard? (picture below). When I start the tractor after not running for a few days it comes on and stays on for a while, maybe half an hour of low rev engine running or so then goes out. [ATTACH type="full" width="451px"]908877[/ATTACH] The tractor has been running really nicely and starting well, apart from once when it wouldn't restart which I traced back to the tap on the bottom of the fuel tank RHS being blocked, soon sorted with a squirt of airline. One problem is that the tachometer/rev counter doesn't work; it doesn't move at all. This obviously doesn't stop anything working, but eventually I'd like to use the tractor on a Varispreader and knowing the correct PTO speed would be handy. Any tips on where to look to get this working again? I'm going to give it a good clean before winter and maybe touch up some of the paint, mainly on the wheels. Hopefully next year this tractor will be used for a bit of farming which I'm looking forward to [/QUOTE]
