4310 Hood

[eee]

The reason I say plastic is I got a good look at the hood all over my yard after 5 bundles of shingles fell out of the bucket onto the hood. I am glad my homeowners took care of the replacement.
I like the plastic hood too.

My hood got stuck open at the dealer's yard before I even bought the tractor. Some silicon spray now and again is a good remedy. It helps with the tilt-steering assembly too and doesn't attract dirt like WD40.

I had a similar problem on a JD 4600, I was wondering if perhaps it was damaged from a sticking latch that holds the hood up, or when I lifted the gas can up to fill the tractor.

Update.................

I talked to the dealer yesterday. The new hood & stickers have come in. I have to take the old hood off, and swap it out for the new one.

You got to love it when a plan comes together...............
