Pretty nice, but what the heck is all that white stuff on it in the second picture.:laughing:

That's the reason for the cab. So nice. Those 2 pics are only 24 hrs apart BTW.

Finding all sorts of nice things - like a loader with a "float" setting? You're kidding me - that's too good when using my bucket on that white stuff. We have a gravel driveway and I usually tear the poop out of it every winter if the ground doesn't freeze before it snows. Not now.

I do wish my dealer would have gotten the manual before delivering the tractor - I'm still waiting. Idiot.

I love mine, especially in the "white stuff".
You will want the parts and service manual all so. They really come in handy when trying to figure out your new rig.

There is a little storage bin located on the back of the seat on my M8540, my tractor came with a manual in there.

Great looking tractor. You're really going to love it. I understand that the cab is a must.

Enjoy and be safe.

We rarely get snow here and when we do it is only a few inches. We got 24" a couple of times and had to call out the National Guard.:laughing:

Thankfully our dealer had the tractor in stock, so we took the manual home before delivery. I bought an extra copy, one for home and one to keep in the tractor.

Trying to post a couple of full pics of my new rig. You can see why a cab might be "nice".

we got hit with 9-10" of the white stuff myself...sure glad for that cab. the heat was real nice when it was 9F outside.

 

[bunchgrass]

We didn't get near that amount (9-10") of snow. More like 4 to 6" and now it's a melting mess .... You got 9F as well? Yikes.

I found myself reaching for levers that weren't there anymore - especially after I'd been working for awhile. Funny old habits.

I'm a little late to this game.....

On my new 9540 I all most always grab for the park brake where it was on my old Deere and just the other day after several hours of good seat time I reached up for the shuttle shift in my pick up several times!!:ashamed:

Nice tractor, if you're like me you'll love every minute of it!
