well i have a whopping 9 hours on my new 7610 and i managed to over heat it tonight and i dont me just a little. i was doing some mowing and driving around wasting time when i thought.... gee i wonder if i got up to temp yet (the other day it took forever to get the temp up even a little) and then i look down and the needle it PEGGED to the right side past H. i mean it wouldnt go any farther. i was about 50 feet from my garage so i parked it and turned it off. i then notice the overflow on the radiator was squirting out fluid. i then checked and found my front grill & radiator screen where full of dirt as was my radiator. so i cleaned the grill and screen and will wait till morning till the engine has cooled before i attempt to hose the radiator off. can anyone think of anything else i should do besides look at the temp gauge more and top off the radiator fluid? hope i didnt permantly harm my once shiny new tractor. i am hoping all is fine as there was no smoking or odd noises that occured during the overheating episode....
any thought/suggestions?????
