Here is the first 2010 959K in Canada. Delivered about 10 days ago. THis unit we installed a Gilbert 28" head. Had a pair coming for stock and both sold before they hit the ground. http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=oirZVvH8egs

    That 28" head makes our 22" look small on our 909j

    Is there a new computer screen also?

    full color screen with 2 different main screens, you pick which one you like better. Same capacity as the TMC, just easier to use.

    Just found out getting one in my area should be out next week. No gilbert head just a fr24b.

    How steep will that machine operate? Looks pretty nice but if it can't go any steeper than 40% one might as well save the cost of the tilt :Banghead

    The brochure claims a 26 degree forward tilt, which would sit the house level on a 49% slope.
