Nice looking tractor, the bucket level indicator looks pretty exposed, but that's not unusual the one on our M8540 has been bent a few times.

Enjoy your new machine.:)

John Deere has the level the same way on the 553 loader and I hate it. Not only is it basically useless but it flops around banging against the good and inside of the loader arm. I've tried adjusting a tightening mine at least 30 times and it never improves.

Have you figured out how to take it off? More efficient as scrap parts for alternate uses.

It's easy to take off, just need an adjustable wrench. The problem is the base can't be removed that I can see and it will flop around too. I'll see if I can get a pic to illustrate my point.

My Kioti came with two mirrors that cost $5,000 extra. There was a cab and a/c attached to the mirrors, though. :D
