          subsidiaries/divisions including but not limited to Hedlund

          collectively, "Gehl Company") and Deutsche Financial Services
          Corporation (formerly known as ITT Commercial Finance Corp.)
          ("DFS") dated as of October 1, 1994, as amended ("Agreement").

               FOR VALUE RECEIVED, DFS and Gehl Company agree as follows:

               1.   All references in the Agreement to "ITT: will be deemed
          to be references to "DFS".

               2.   Section 2.1(a) of the Agreement is hereby restated in
          its entirety to read as follows:

                    "(a) `Maximum Line of Credit':  In consideration of
                         Gehl Company's performance of its Obligations and
                         subject to Sections 3 and 4, DFS grants to Gehl
                         Company separate lines of credit of (a) SIXTY-
                         EIGHT MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES
                         DOLLARS ($68,500,000.00 U.S.) (the `U.S. Line'),
                         and (b) that fluctuating amount of Canadian
                         Dollars which, from day-to-day, shall equal, based
                         on the daily noon spot exchange rate of the Royal
                         Bank of Canada (the `Exchange Rate') SIX MILLION
                         FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS
                         ($6,500,000.00 U.S.) (the `Canadian line') for the
                         period commencing on the execution of this
                         Agreement until December 31, 1997.  Such lines of
                         credit are collectively called the `Maximum Line
                         of Credit'; loans under the U.S. Line are called
                         `U.S. Loans'; and loans under the Canadian Line
                         are called `Canadian Loans'.  U.S. Loans shall be
                         repayable only in United States Dollars and
                         Canadian Loans shall be repayable only in Canadian
                         Dollars.  Gehl Company agrees that for purposes of
                         determining loan availability and over-advance 
                         positions, all outstanding Canadian Loans shall be
                         valued daily, at the then current Exchange Rate
                         (for example:  if on January 1, Gehl Company
                         borrowed $8,500,000 Canadian which at the time was
                         equivalent to $6,500,000 U.S., and on January 3,
                         the Exchange Rate changed such that $8,500,000
                         Canadian was then valued at $7,000,000 U.S., Gehl
                         Company will be deemed over-advanced by $500,000). 
                         Any over-advance will be immediately repayable by
                         Gehl Company upon demand by DFS.  In determining
                         credit available at any given time for U.S. Loans
                         pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.2 and 4.2
                         or Canadian Loans pursuant to the provisions of
                         Section 3.2, Canadian Loans may be made only with
                         respect to Eligible Accounts arising from sales
                         payable in Canadian Dollars, and U.S. Loans may be
                         made only with respect to Eligible Accounts,
                         including, but not limited to, Eligible Retail
                         Accounts, arising from sale payable in United
                         States dollars and Eligible Inventory.  Gehl
                         Company agrees that all reports, agings, records
                         and other information provided by it pursuant to
                         this Agreement, including without limitation,
                         those provided pursuant to Section 3.1, shall, in
                         form and detail reasonably satisfactory to DFS,
                         separately identify Gehl Company's Accounts
                         payable in Canadian Dollars from those payable in
                         United States Dollars."

               3.   Section 2.1(b) of the Agreement is hereby restated in
          its entirety to read as follows:

                    "(b) Supplemental Line of Credit.  DFS grants to Gehl
                         Company a Supplemental Line of Credit in an amount
                         not to exceed Twenty Five Million Dollars
                         ($25,000,000.00) of the U.S. Line."

               4.   The first sentence of Section 2.3 of the Agreement is
          hereby restated in its entirety to read as follows:

                    "Gehl Company acknowledges that DFS may, in its sole
                    discretion, make any Canadian Loan by causing its
                    Canadian affiliate, Deutsche Financial Services Canada
                    Corporation, or any other affiliate of DFS ("DFS
                    Canada") to fund or make advances of such loans on DFS'
                    behalf, or to make or continue such Canadian Loans
                    directly."

               All references in the Agreement to "ITT Canada" will be
          deemed to be references to "DFS Canada".

               5.   Section 4.2 of the Agreement is hereby restated in its
          entirety to read as follows:

                    "4.2 Available Credit.  On receipt of each Inventory
                         Schedule and Retail Account Schedule, DFS will
                         credit Gehl Company at the following percentages
                         of the net amount of the Eligible Inventory and
                         Eligible Retail Accounts, respectively, listed in
                         such Schedule:

                         Finished Goods                               75%
                         Service Parts                                25%
                         Eligible Retail Accounts (except Eligible
                              Repurchased Retail Accounts)            75%
                         Eligible Repurchased Retail Accounts         50%

                         DFS will loan Gehl Company, on request, such
                         amounts so credited or a part thereof as provided
                         by the terms of Section 2.1 and this section;
                         provided, however, that (i) the outstanding
                         principal balance of all advances or loans made on
                         Eligible Repurchased Retail Accounts will at no
                         time exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00),
                         (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal balance
                         of all advances or loans made on Finished Goods
                         and Service Parts will at no time exceed Fourteen
                         Million Dollars ($14,000,000.00), and (iii) the
                         outstanding principal balance of all advances or
                         loans made on Eligible Retail Accounts (except
                         Eligible Repurchased Retail Accounts) will at no
                         time exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00). 
                         No advances or loans need be made by DFS if Gehl
                         Company is in Default."

               6.   All other terms and provisions of the Agreement, to the
          extent not inconsistent with the foregoing, are ratified and
          remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

               IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Gehl Company and DFS have executed this
          Amendment on this 10th day of May, 1995.
