I have ran dozers for over 40 years. I never liked the paddle steering. Hydrostatic was nice though easier for me to control. Some operators loved the paddles just not me.
They are the nicest to use when u get used to them i have spend 50 plus hours over 2 weeks learning these control's and i think they are my favorite by far
There is a method of steering on a downhill slope known as "cross steering".Whereby when it is steep enough you clutch the opposite track to the direction you want to go. Gravity takes over and that side speeds up as the machine makes a gentle turn. Not only is the turn quicker and more productive,it also saves on brake wear. My dad taught me this little trick when I was abt 10.
Can you push one paddle forward and pull the other one back to make them turn/spin on the spot, or can you only pull the one paddle back witch just allows the machine to screw it’s self around on one track.
Try backing down a hill... and go to brake one track, except it clutches and that track takes off instead of slowing down. Takes some getting used to indeed

Love the finger control. Prefer it over the newer modern controls.

Thanks for sharing your dad's trick.
Love the D5M ran them for years
I do think the old throttle lever on the dash is nice. Modern machines is a just a push button to turn throttle on.

Buena la instrucción,equipoelectrico o electrónico para trabajo suave y terreno.
I prefer the finger control over the D6 control
Looks like a baby D11 😢
