New Tractor / New Videos!

[Avenger]

I made a few videos of getting my new XR4145C a while back, but never uploaded them to YouTube.

Yesterday, I made another one (4th one) and uploaded them all just now. So, if you would like to see my new (-er) toy...

Enjoyed the video's. I'll keep an eye out for more.

Nice informational videos, showed a lot of pros and cons. That cab is a luxury I wish I could afford, mostly for plowing snow. Have you got a snow plow for it yet and what a bout the front tire rubbing on the loader mount, what's the fix on that are the front tires the right size? Front tires should not rub on anything at anytime on anything.

Thank you for the kind words!

The cab was actually not that much more. And after speaking with the dealer about how many windows he sells or replaces due to the glass breaking, he put my fears at ease. (Also, spoke to others.) But yeah, I cannot wait for winter! I tell people I am going to, at least once, plow my driveway wearing flip flops and shorts, just because I can! I currently do not have a snow plow. I only have a box blade and the bucket. That should be enough until I can get an actual plow. I do have a plow on my 4-wheeler, but who would want to use that when they have a cab tractor?!

On the tires, that is a very good point that I never considered. I will check the tire size when I can. I will also attempt to make another video showing that rubbing, it may be a bit difficult though.

Thank you for watching, and keep an eye out for more!

Just get your front tires to the point of rubbing, jump out and video. I just can't visualise your problem either.

I made a quick video showing that issue with the tires binding. FYI.

Thanks for sharing :thumbsup: looking forward to more updates.

Thanks for that rubbing tire video. Must pay attention to my 3135 to check for same. Should not even be able to do that.

I made a quick video showing that issue with the tires binding. FYI.

My XR3135 has front tire angle stop bolts. Perhaps yours are missing or out of adjustment. You should not have such a tight turning radius either. Mine supposedly has a 48 degree turning angle. You should be able to adjust the stop bolts if you are having fel interference.

My relatively (less than 3 month old) XR4155HC doesn’t exhibit the tire binding-iirc I have the stop bolts previously mentioned. I will have to look closer next time I get over to my Spokane property.

BTW-LS must have made a few small changes in the next model year ( I am guessing yours is a ‘16)-I have 3 rear remotes and don’t seem to have the odd curl issue with the FEL.

I am thinking of the speaker upgrade and wonder if you could elaborate on the issues you alluded to.

Good luck with all your projects! I am in the midst of septic system backfill at my place so the LS is getting a good workout!

PS-I ordered the beacon light through the dealer where I got my tractor and got it in less than 2 weeks. If you’re still trying to get the three point lever PM me and I’ll give you the name/number of the parts/service manager-maybe he can help you out.
