The first review of the Lego Technic tractor with log loader has appeared on the Eurobricks Forum written by member Tom White.
This set is one of the smaller models released at the start of 2010. From Tom's pictures it looks 
much simpler than I thought it would be. This is a good thing though as some of the recent sets have been overly complex and I've even found my self getting frustrated with the often very detailed build.
The first part of the build is the tractor. Not many parts and realy just has simple steering as a function.
The trailer is also straight forward. The pneumatic pump is located under the trailer, with 2 pneumatic valves on the side, controlling the boom and stick. the arm can be rotated via a small gear at the back of the trailer.
This is the first set for a years to contain pneumatics. The set could have done with one more 
small cylinder to close the final jaw on the arm. A similar claw is on the Air Tech Claw Rig - set 8868.
The model has an age rating of 9 to 16 which seems ideal. At £40 it's maybe a bit too expensive for youngsters though.
