A bad day at the office. Broke rear brake light off Kioti 7320 and air conditioner s

Nice tractor, vid for a phone , damage don't look to bad . About how many hours you have on your 7320 ? Would you buy it again ? Looks like a kick azz tractor too me :thumbsup: .

Next time spray that mouse in the face with wd40 or CRC knockerloose , then jab him with a S'mores Roasting Stick and feed him to the ants ! :mouse:

I think the tractor has 630 hours on it. Yes I would definitely buy it again. Buy I would get the rear window wiper. I really regret not having opted for that.

I had several locusts already behind my house when I built that had grown up around some rocks in the field. Wife put a flower bed there.
Then the largest locust died, the elm has died, 2 smallblocust trees died. Now another locust has died. Still got one locust. I planted a couple oaks now growing there.
It’s unusual for locust trees to die like mine did.
Locust stump still there, elm stump disintegrated in a couple yrs.


Around 18 yrs ago I reclaimed an overgrown 11 acre field that had regrown with up to 2” diameter locust trees. For someone else.. First mowing was rough, with my little Massey and a 5’ rotary. Took several days to mow it. Then I mowed it once a year. I finally stopped mowing for them. I have no idea what’s growing there now, here is google pic

WCD - I'd open that air cleaner to be sure there is no mouse nest in there.

I don't know. I cut through this with a 15hp Shibaura

Thatç—´ impressive? What were you pulling behind it? Or did it have a belly mower?

When I cut those trails, I walked through there first to check for stumps and marked the route with flagging tape. Whats funny is that one day I was cutting through some thick brush, and I saw a doe and fawn following me 30 yards back. The slashing and banging of the mower didn't bother them at all ... but snap a twig during hunting season, and they're off like a shot!

I went through the mouse thing a month ago.
Mothballs have kept them away since.
I lost the AC idler bearing last week.
One hour round trip and 50 dollars and I'm back to running.
RX6010 458 hours. I'm going to get another bearing and build a spare idler assembly. I've got the original stud and the pulley. It's going to take some time to remove the old bearing races though. Not much there to work with.

 

[WoodChuckDad]

I found the pulley today, in the field. The bearing was destroyed. I will probably order the bearing and other parts that are needed and heep it as a spare. Hopefully, I’ll never need it. This morning I had to spray the orchard. I did it first thing in the morning but it was still hot.

It looks like you have that real fine sugar sand up there that likes to eat bearings and with the idler sitting out in the open airstream you might want to put the idler bearings on a 500 hour replacement schedule. They turn pretty fast in a hot and abrasive environment and replacing them regularly is a lot cheaper than the damage they could do and downtime when you don't need it.

I repaired the AC friday. The light is still outstanding.

Mr. WoodChuckDad,

I saw your YouTube video before reading this post! Funny how that works sometimes. For what it's worth, I recently bought a 2020 RX7320.
