Just took delivery on a new tractor today.
After several months of deliberation I chose the LS 4150, as it had more features and was much more affordable than an orange, red, or green tractor of comparable size.
I went with the 16x16 shuttle over the hydro, as I don't forsee a ton of loader work.
My farm is around 85 acres and is a mix of hardwoods, pasture, and about 17 acres of it is in hay.
My neighbor helps cut it now and I can borrow his implements.... I plan to start doing all on my own in the next year or so. I will gradually add implements until I have all the equipment I need.
I put about two hours on it yesterday with the Befco rotary cutter. I varied the RPM often between 1800-2400 trying not to stay at a constant speed for more than a minute or so...
Anything else I should do during break-in?
Here are a couple pics ☺
