Do any of you guys with the cab think adding a window film would help?? I know many windows in homes have low-E tinting. if the windows were tinted with Low-e, it would help with external heat gain. just an idea

Hi Ledebuhr1,

I have a L3430 HST with Cab that I bought last April. It is great. The AC on mine works well although one hot day during the summer, I noticed it was a little warm at midday. Of course this past summer in PA was a cool one for the most part. My favorite thing about the cab is the lack of dust and debris blowing around when brushhogging. I also was saved from a lot of yellow jacket stings when I ran over a nest. They swarmed around my brush hog and cab but couldn't get to me at all. There must have been a couple of hundred yellow jackets around. I haven't used it in the winter yet but have tried out the heater already and it is excellent. We are already in the 30's and have even had some snow. Visibility is excellent and the loader control is easy to use.

I will try to find my picture of my tractor. I think it is on my other computer.

RaT:

Thank you. You know I am not very computer literate. I actually bought a digital micrometer the other day for the shop. I imagine pretty soon, my eyesight will get poor enough where I will need all digital readouts on my machine tools.

I was brought up on vernier scales, high tech to me is analog. Digital and computerized is like the cosmos for me.

I didn't know if you put this particular thread in your favorites. I quired Mike (moderator) last night and asked him to link it if you didn't catch it. I see you did. Again, thank you.

I imagine that you could add tint film to the front window, but the doors are all galss and rimless. My ac fix cures the problem. Believe me, I have put the ac to the test and it passed with flying colors.

Just remember to close the doors before moving the tractor. Not closing them can be a painful and expensive lesson. I have learned that lesson first hand!!!

I am not going to elaborate any more on the above statement, nor am I going to start a thread explaining my stupidity. All I will say, the glass doors are expensive and they are most certainly safety glass.
