Congrats! Be smart, be safe, take your time getting to know the machine and its (and your) capabilities.

Take it from an eternal NOOB - one "oh bleep" can wipe out all your "atta-boys".

Congrats..!!!! Very happy for you..!!!!
I wish i had a use for a tractor that big.
Take your time and go v-e-r-y s-l-o-w and learn the tractor..!
If you don`t, it will surly teach YOU some very hard lessons, and VERY quickly too.

And never be afraid to come in here and ask questions if you need to, there are some very sharp people in here that will bend over backwards to help you.
And always remember, this being your first tractor, there are no stupid question`s... its only stupid if you don`t ask.
Please do read that operators manual, several times until you understand everything in it... it`s your tractor bible.

Pop up some pics in here... we LOVE seeing fresh new Orange paint!

ENJOY...!

Congrats on the new acquisition, one thing I have learned when operating anything with hydraulics is go slow and cautiously, take your time and be safe.

Congrats Paul - you are getting a truly great tractor. As all have said - go slow, be careful, don't attempt anything that looks even slightly dangerous.

READ, REREAD, READ AGAIN YOUR OWNERS MANUAL. Need help understand something - come back and ask - DO NOT experiment. Enjoy

Awesome Paul pics when you have them. These were the big things I noticed in the first few hours of tractor operation:

Be especially careful on any slopes. Tractors arent cars and they respond very differently.

Get used to wearing that seatbelt. It was actually harder for me on the tractor because I get on and off so much.

These machines are very strong. Anything you hit with them is going to get messed up...like corners of a barn, other things on the property. As mentioned you must go slow.

Lastly, if you have any implement on the back, remember the swing of said implement as you turn. The tractor has a tight turning radius, but that implement out the back will get you in trouble. Always be mindful of it when turning anywhere.

Been having terrible weather, but some pics are coming. Shes all tucked away in a storage facility for now.

Remember it could be called obsessive if you take a pillow out and sleep in the cab at night - ha, ha.
