Got a new machine.

With your machine is is possible to slam the pedal forward and then in instant to slam it backwards and if the ground surface is a little slippery, gravel or wet it will spin the tires, all 4 of them. There is a pedal damper, but the hydro response itself is very fast. Give it a couple days of operation and you will be a pro.

No videos. You have a HST, so use your imagination and it's like that. Getting better at it though.

Hooked up the blade. The telescopic arms are indeed nice, but not as easy as my QH ends. But not so bad to warrant putting QH ends on these arms. need to get some bushings for sure.

The reason I didn't put mine back on, was with the OEM stock ball ends, there is less slop, plus arms can go lower. I haven't regretted not using the Carters. They were great on the L3400, but I just didn't think I needed them with the telescoping lower links.

Still debating on weather I want to put bolt-on teeth on there like my L3400, or just buy a tooth bucket since I have SSQA now?? Never really noticed the teeth helping much when digging, but were very handy looping a strap/chain around and lifting things

Sweet new tractor, congrats!
Be patient and wait for a tooth bucket to come around!

Some more pics....

So may remember the side x side shots of the Ford TLB and my L3400....



Well....heres the MX5100 next to the 5500

Congrats! It should be a good one for you.

Was on tdata refreshing my memory on some specs til I get my manuals....odd that they have the mx5100 listed as a cat I 3ph?

Lowers are def. 1-1/8. Also odd that the toplink tractor side is still 3/4". But the toplink has one end with a cat I 3/4" eye, the other end is cat II??

Hate when mfgs do this. Seems every tractor I have seen in the 40-60hp range with cat II lowers still has cat I toplink holes

That's a great tractor and an excellent price. The skidsteer loader setup nd HST are great, too. I love my MX5100and it is quite a workhorse. Congratulations.

That is a really smart job on the remotes. You have a tractor and setup that is good for the next 30 or 40 years. Maybe I missed it but what do you do with three remotes? I use two.
