Fellow TBNers,

I am part of the clan...my new 2230 is now home!

Picture

What a great machine. I had the chance to run it for 3 hours today and I enjoyed every minute of it. I removed and re-attached the FEL as well as the box blade. I got the chance to mow with my MMM and it did a great job. I was so enthusiastic that I removed the MMM and cracked my head against the FEL...don't ask...haste makes waste!

Only, I do have a problem. There is fluid leaking from the left rear of the tractor. It looks to be coming from the tubing for th PTO, but I can't be sure. It is parked in the garage and the puddle hasn't gotten bigger. It only seems to be happening with it is running, which leads me to assume that under pressure, the fittings are tight enough. I have th warranty, but I figure I can pull the tire and check. Plenty of oil still, but I do have to keep an eye on it. Any advice? BTW, I am calling the dealer on Monday.

Other than that, thanks to Henro for the advice on a skid plate for the the bottom of the tractor. Also, any other modifications to improve the tractor are appreciated, especially with the turnbuckles!
