New 5083E

[michaelmoten]

A few pictures of the new tractor. Going to take some getting use to. Never had a cab before, let alone a tractor over 45 HP. I love the lights, going to make late evening and early morning feeding alot easier. Really like the tractor so far, but won't see alot of "work" until hay season comes along, just feeding mostly until then.

Just 45 HP? Looks very nice. Did you get the third function for the loader for bale hands or grapples?

Sorry, I meant over 45 HP. No 3rd function, Global Attachment Carrier with a bale spear.

A cab is a wonderful thing isn't it? That's a nice looking rig. Enjoy it.

Nice looking tractor! I just got my 5093E yesterday, so I know the feeling. Question. I noticed a buddy seat, my dealer told me they weren't available for the E series. How did you get yours?

 

[michaelmoten]

My dealer ordered the seat for the M series and installed it, says he has done several. Works perfectly other than the "grab" handle, the cab post is not drilled on the E as it is the M, so it is ommitted from the install. It works great though.

Good lookin' tractor! Congrats. Those windows and that heater will sure take the sting outta snow, too! :laughing:

Very nice! Enjoy!

I don't know how I ever functioned without a cab...

 

[dstacy]

Any trouble getting in or out with the buddy seat? How about it getting in the way of controls?
Thanks for the answer. I'd sure like to get one installed when I get mine.

Nice tractor! I've got the Global/Euro style quick attach on my loader also, and I really like it.

It folds back along the contour of the fender. You hardly notice that it's there. You can still move in and out of the cab even when the buddy seat is locked into place. Great feature! I've been using it to coax my wife into learning to drive that "great, big green thing"!

No trouble at all when the seat is folded up, as other's have mentioned it fits the contour of the fender. As far as the control the seat bolt is close to the 4wd engagement handle, but doesn't keep it from being functional. I am very glad I opted for the seat. My wife and daughter both love it.

Do either of you have the part number of the buddy seat kit the dealer installed?

Just saying, when people post the Parts Catalog number, it just goes to the home page of the parts catalog.

That gives me a search box looking for a model #. What seat are you using? "M"?

 

[Edward. S]

All the buddy seats are the same, for my 6430 Premium it has the same seat as that 5083E.

Edit ; when you put the buddy seat on you drill through the cab.
