The biggest thing I dislike about case compact track loader's and skid steers are the doors. Not as easy to get into as a Kubota or takeuchi and with those brands you can run with the door open for better communication. But other then that a solid machine

My personal experience with case is the older ones were more durable and lasted longer. The new machines are super underpowered and are always broke down compared to other manufacturers. I do love the visibility in case skid loaders compared to others.

More problems with all that electrical coolness. Just keep it simple.

While this may be a great machine. All I see is more things to go wrong. I prefer a leader connected to a rod so when I pull the lever the function works. Rather the push a button and hope it works. A clevis pin is much easier to repair than an electro magnetic switch or a circuit board. Just my opinion . All my machines are mechanical .

CB - thanks for the note and we hope you check them out - as you've noted, we do offer each of these machines in mechanical and mechanical hand-and-foot controls!

@@Caseatwork I will check them out at Conexpo. Thanks.

CB Why do skid steer have foot controls for raise & dump. never under stand where that came from.

[@daven1151]

These electronic controls suck. Wish I had my mechanical controls back. Only reason I sold my 18 model w mechanical controls was to get enhanced high flow. My 21 model has tons of power but I hate the electronics.

Dave, sorry to hear you’re not a fan of the EH controls on the B series machines. EH controls provide operators the ability to customize the control response, so you can adjust them to whatever suits your operating style. The standard machine settings (Low, Medium, or High) allow you to quickly change from smoother operation (L = Low) to more aggressive operation (H = High). Additionally, the Machine Settings menu provides for an EZ-EH CUSTOM setting selection, where operators can dial in the exact SPEED and CONTROL response they desire for Tilt, Lift, Drive functions. I hope this addressed your concern. Your CASE dealer can also provide further insight and assist you with tuning the controls to your desired performance as well.

@@Caseatwork how do I program it to go straight instead of 5 foot to the right or left

[@daven1151]

@@Caseatwork I only have about 40 hours on the machine so far and hope that I can get use to it but no exaggeration I was pushing out a driveway this morning and I had to feather the left stick for 15 feet or so before it would just go straight.

Dave, can you email us at [e-mail] with your contact information, machine serial number, and the local dealer and salesperson you are working with?

CASE, can you PLEASE offer a real suspension seat like Cat, Tak and Kubota does on there CTLS? What I mean by that is a HIGH BACK seat with considerable more suspension. My zero turn mower that costs a fraction of what these machines cost has more suspension travel than the seat in the CASE. Customers, especially owner operators like myself want to be comfortable and nothing contributes to that more than the quality of the seat! Would also like to see the front door resigned to give better visibility and a double flange idler in the front. Not sure why Case is the only one running a single flange idler in the front other than to save cost. Was really hoping the B series would address some of these issues. If only Case could improve on these items they’d have a complete machine bc they are the strongest CTLS out there, especially when considering power to weight ratio.
