I have been reading more than a few coments about how hard it is to steer a tractor w/loader and with out. If no power steering.
I am curious about this. I do know that it is harder to steer with out power steering, Thats obvious.
To tell you the truth though I have never really had a issue with it. Even with the loader on my H full I have no trouble turning the wheels. Makes me wonder if there is some wrong technique being used that makes it hard.
My old Grandpa showed me how when I was a kid with his WD45 and Ford. I was sitting there grunting trying to turn the wheels on the WD from a stopped possition. He watched me for some time just laughing. He finally came over and said. Listen son when you want to turn the wheels you must be moving. Even if its just a few inches at a time it makes the turning real easy.
He was right.
No doubt about it, spinning the wheel around with out worring about moving would be nice.
But if you are like me and dont have it. Just thought i'd pass on my Grandpa's training class.
