It was 93 degrees today when I was mowing. I had my feet on the running boards and noticed the clutch pedal, brake pedals and the transmission cover were extremely hot, I would guess around 180 degrees. The temp gauge was right where it should have been, in the green, and the tractor is new. What is causing the heat? Are geared transmissions supposed to run that hot?
Someone suggested that it's the bigger hydraulic pump than were in my previous tractors. I put my feet up on the loader mounts to keep from getting burned.
The loader was not on the tractor.
