- Kubota B7800 with loaded R-4s
I was mowing some tall grass the other day with the 60"MMM with my 7800 and I was wearing shorts and could feel heat coming from under the tractor. It didn't burn me but it didn't seem quite right. The when I finished and went to spray off the mower deck I hit the rear end with some spray and it turned into steam. I couldn't touch the rear end with my hand it was that hot. I was finished for the day so I put it away. I got it out the next day and it ran fine. The tractor has about 80 hours on it and I did the 50 hour maintenance. The grill and screen in front of the radiator both were clean. The brake was not set, the fluid level was fine and the temp. guage was not reading hot. Although it was very hot and humid outside when I was mowing and I was mowing very slow in medium range and then went down to low range. Am I just overreacting maybe ???? Any ideas????
