It has been an awesome tractor so far! The lift capacity has become more useful than imagined which is one of the key reasons why I bought it! I currently have 330 hrs with only a couple small?tiny issues so far.
@@redneckmini14 dpf filter clogged (i solved it permanently). one headlight not working (probably a bulb or loose connection). Couple loose front loader bolts(to be expected with heavy use though, not to blame really). E brake pedal mount broke. Small safety switch under frwd/reverse pedal gets stuck so it prevents it from starting (solution- tap pedals with foot or adjust/lubricate linkages to prevent them from sticking. support has been good though!
@@WorknDirt What RPMs do you typically run your tractor at? I heard you are supposed to run it hot for the DPF, but have heard mixed things for what specific RPM.
@@redneckmini14 i ran it around 1700-2000 for most grading and loading operations and 2200-2300 for my wood chipper. i never used to let it just idle accept when i first start it when cold. But now i use it at lower rpms now that i "fixed" the dpf. The amount of unnecessary wear you will put on your motor and fuel you'll use over the course of owning the tractor following the recommendations is unbelievable. the technology is in the early stages and needs more improvement .. and yes i care about the environment
How are you liking that Branson tractor? We just bought a 3515H, which is being delivered tomorrow. Can't wait to put it to work.
