I have a 6075 with just over 1000 hours on it.
Was running my 12' cutter, and without warning POP! Coolant was pouring out... Tractor wasn't hot, just normal operating temp.
I get out after shutting the PTO down, and look in the hood, fan is wobbling as the bearing on the water pump/fan is completely out. Before I can turn the tractor off, the fan clatters too...Belt is shelled off, maybe broken.
Unhooked everything and took it to dealer.
After it was looked at closer, the fan needed replacement as well, as does the radiator. Guess when the bearing went out, it pulled the fan into the radiator for further self destruction.
I'm expecting a pretty good bill for this one...
