RX7320 Air Conditioner

[MickeyDBC]

Last weekend we hit 99 degrees at the squirrel ranch and I did a bunch of loader and grapple work with the 7320 and can report that the AC works very well. Started around noon after the tractor had been in the sun all morning so it was already hot in the cab but it cooled off quickly. I was afraid that I was going to have to spring for window tint after hearing my neighbors gripe about how hot their Deeres got, but I can report that the Kioti did very well.

I’ve had a bunch of issues with mine resulting from a tiny crack in a metal AC line as it arrived from the factory (all of which have been under warranty) but when it’s working I can tell you it’s fantastic. In fact I often have to keep it off the coldest setting or it gets too cold in the cab. But sure is nice to work in dust all day and step out of the tractor perfectly clean at the end of the day.

Wow - not my experience at all. I'm beginning to wonder if it's working at all! I have about 50 hours on a 2017 model. It's never done much...
Mickey, I see you're from Dime box - Did you get yours at Paige Tractor?

Maybe you got one from the same batch with a small crack in it?

I did get mine from Paige, and the ac really will freeze you out. A couple of other tractors that I looked at felt like a mouse farting when you turned on the ac, but this one works great. If it is a 2017 they should fix that under warranty.

I called Joseph at Paige Tractor and he agreed that it should be freezing me out - he has the same model. He said they had a few 90's that came in low on freon and maybe this one was too. Taking it in this week for that and the 50 hour service- I hope that's all it is. We've been dealing with Larry for years and now Joseph - great guys to deal with over at Paige Tractors.

They are good guys. I just bought that little rusty Kubota mini excavator from them and have to go and pick it up later this week. Need to make a new track tensioner for the left side and patch a couple of more rust holes on it before I start using it, but other than being old and rusty it leaks less than a lot of other stuff I have. When did you buy yours?

 

[ranger487]

Bought mine in January. We had an 83 Massey Ferguson 230 my in-laws bought from Larry about 20 years ago. Finally had to move up to something bigger. Our place was in the Bastrop Complex fire in 2011 and there is still a lot of clean-up left to do!

We went camping out in Bastrop State Park three years ago and it was so sad how everything looked four years after the fire. They seem to sell a lot of 7320's - said they sold two last week and thought another was going out this week. Good luck with your AC.

You Texas folks really need the AC to be working right! Here, not so much...which is lucky for me, since the bearings on the AC belt tensioner pulley in my cabbed DK45 blew up last weekend (and fell out somewhere in the field) and I'll be without AC until I can get replacement parts in.

Got my tractor back today! AC is now COLD! Joseph said it was a full can low on Freon, must have come that way from the factory. Didn't use it for long but what a difference it makes!

Might want to keep an eye on it if they do your next service have them check it out. Mine had a cracked metal line that allowed most but not all of the Freon to escape. The added the UV dye to my system so they can check it when it goes back for some other warranty work next week they should know right away if it’s leaking.

Thanks for the tip... I'll keep an eye on it. In the heat that we've been having here in central Texas if it's not working 100% I'll know it right away!

Spent four hours in the middle of the day yesterday (another 99 degree afternoon) mowing and I still really love my air conditioner. As long as I did not have to open the doors too much to get out and move things, it would get the cab too cold on high speed so I kept having to turn the fan down. I was pulling a 10 foot Shulte shredder in e-pto cutting grass and weeds but regular speed cutting a bunch of little trash trees and brush by the pond (diff lock came in very hand when I started sticking a couple of times) and the temp gauge never went out of normal range. Very happy with the tractor.
