Sounds like you're just about there...
When you get to play with the hoe, just a couple things to keep in mind.
The hoe is way overpowered for the size of the tractor. You are going to be able to drag yourself all over the place with it, so just go easy...
I run mine not much over idle when using the hoe.
You can easily tip the machine sideways if you swing all the way to the side with a full bucket, and boomed out.
The manual indicates you should have the loader bucket flat on the ground, but don't try to lift the machine. As I mentioned, you're going to slide, so just learn to work with it. If you try holding yourself in place with the bucket, you're going to start breaking things like the frame, and loader booms/towers.
The stock seat setup works fine, but eventually I was moving along so fast in projects, it became a pain to keep screwing around with it. I'll frequently just sit sideways in the seat to run the hoe. If you're really going deep, and need the extra height to see your work, that's another story. I've toyed with putting a cylinder in the seat post to just pull a lever to change position, but just haven't committed to it yet. The dashboard implement lift lever would work fine for that...
Otherwise, have fun! They're a blast to run once you get a feel for it, and you can do a surprising amount of useful work.
