New MX5100 on the way!

weldermike · Dec 17, 2011

Hi all!, my new mx5100 showed up last night, took it for a little spin in the dark, but couldnt wait for daylight. Felt like a kid again! Very impressed, what a powerhouse for its size, been playin around with it all morning. Wanna break it in as quick as possible before the heavy snow comes, put 3hrs on it this morning, but had to come in and warm up. In the low 20s right now. Ill try and post a few pics.

Nice. I partially broke in my tractor in with snow removal duties. It went well. Even though I use a snow blower I just kept the RPMs down around 2000 most of the time and gave it plenty of time to warm up before heading out to work. Just make sure you let it idle after using it to let the turbo cool off.

Thanks for all the kind words guys! I put almost 4hrs on it in two days, and im really loving it. Thanks for the reminder crazyal, I tend to have to get off the machine alot in hilly areas and never really trust locking the brakes so im constantly shutting her down in gear. First turbo machine I ever personaly owned, gotta make it a habit to remember. Thanks buds!
