Picked Up My LS XR3135HC Pictures

scodemike · Sep 3, 2016

Just picked up the LS yesterday. Some observations, the dealer gave me a 7' Hydraulic Blade, I expected the 6'. Much quieter than the JD3320 Cab, some cool features like the A/C Heat vent selection, outside air or recirculate option, comfy seat. Don't like the fact that when 4wd is selected there is no indication on the dash for it.

More later today after I set up a few things.

Congrats on the new arrival. Don't complain about the 7' blade, it will cover your tracks when fully angled where the 6' would not. It would be nice to have a 4x4 indicator on the dash. I haven't got a round tuit but it shouldn't be too hard to add one. Its on my list of things to add such as 4x4 indicator, digital volt meter, outside / inside digital thermometer, digital clock.

I agree about the blade, just need to get used to it. Mine shows the battery voltage, I'm Ok with that, my radio has the digital clock and temp is not a big deal.

Reload5, thanks for the comments on the truck, love it.

Here are more pics now that I have played a little.

I didn't realize it had draft control, just need to figure how to use and for what.

[I didn't realize it had draft control, just need to figure how to use and for what.]

A couple of suggestions, get the skid shoes for the rear blade.

Read the owners manual to learn how to set up the draft control. Actually have the manual in hand and be at the tractor. Easiest way to see what does what.

Next thing, and many people say that you can't do it, but they are wrong, you can use the draft control for grading. It will make using your rear blade much more enjoyable. It may take a little practice, but trust me, it works great when cutting as little as an inch, and that much better at 2-3" of ground.

Nothing like rolling ground off a blade.
