Thank you for your time/comparison! Presently, I have two CATS - a 302.7cr, 303.5cr - and am very disappointed with both. ...looking at both this Yanmar and Case (along with the Kubota). So, you have helped me a ton!!! Thank you : )
Thanks for the comparison, I'm impressed with the case. I would be interested in what the reliability of each machine over time and test again say every 1000 hrs to see if there is much change.
The breakout force is not tested properly, in real life, the bottom of your bucket will be supported with dirt or something else, in your test you are biased by the friction of the machine on the ground and also the arm cylinder force.

Good thought for sure!
