I have been told it's the 9 liter engine, 1200 gallon tank, and can order 800's for floats. I wonder if the frame size will be the same as the 4038 since it's the same engine? What's everyone been hearing?

If its like the 4038, the mirrors are mounted to the boom. You can see everything great but they are easily damaged by low hanging limbs. I've broken two mirrors in 100 hours.

I also broke one immediately. What I did is cut the brackets at the base and rotate them back 90 degrees and reweld. They are then pulled In parallel with the boom and closer to the cab. The view is not compromised imo. And haven't broken another in several hundred hrs.

Good idea! I might try this when my boss is out of town, he might get anytime upset if I'm modifying a brand new machine.
