I have not broke any rims on mine as i take things pretty easy normally and my round bales are only about 1000lbs. I would not want to handle much more with this tractor. Mine has the same 625tl loader its not meant for heavy work.
The clutch has held up well but i rarely move manure or rock with this one where i would be hard on a clutch. A shuttle shift would be very nice but i think it was out of the budget when they built this one. Just having some syncros would be a great upgrade as i have another loader with similar shift and syncros its much nicer to run.
The battery is easy to get to just lift the hood and its right there in front of the radiator. Of course the loader is in the way. It starts well down to about 20 degrees. I addded a block heater for colder days and that really helped.
If your expecting to lots of scooping and other rough loader work i would look at the t4 or t5 series tractors. The workmaster they took a small frame tractor and added gearboxes at the rear axle to lengthen the tractor and get a longer wheelbase and bigger rear tires which made the rear end very light. I can get by fine with it as all my heavy work is done with a wheel loader but i would be in trouble if it was my primary machine.
