Hi,
I just noticed JD offers a tranny warmer on their options page. I'm wondering a couple things.
1. Do any on you with HST drive machine have a transmission fluid warmer/heater to plug it in prior to use in the cold??
2. Is there any harm done in not having one? I'm always gentle on my machine in the cold for the first 5 to 10 minutes of use anyway.
3. Does the tranny 'warmup' while the tractor is idling, or does it need to be in motion to actually be 'warming up'??
Thanks,
-Jer.
