BX24, 30hrs in the first week!

Hi all,
The tractor was delivered last Monday and I've been on it every day. Moved 60yd of topsoil in 2 days and spent the rest of the time shaping and re-contouring my backyard. What a great machine!!!
Be gentle with me, I am going to try to post pictures now...

Congratulations on the new toy / tool. They are a great machine. Mine even helped me find out I had termites in my garage!(roll bar up, outrunning downpour, -1" clearance. oops)
have fun and good luck, Dave

Great pics! Keep 'em coming. I've only managed about 10 hours on mine that I got 13 days ago. I can't wait until I retire in about 40 years.

Nice machine.
With toothbar and canopy, very nice!

Well, putting on those kind of hours means you will be doing your 50 hour 'break in" maintenance...oh...next weekend!

I just finished mine, at the 42 hour mark, pretty easy, mainly engine oil and filter and Tranny/Hydro oil and filter. and all greased up!

Enjoy.

Well Sqidget, I didn't have any termites but I do have about a 1" boo-boo on my garage door trim too. Fits fine in my shop though.

More later,

Emil

WOW

I'm at 7 months with my B7800 and got a whopping 56 hours on it, stop....you're going to wear it out!!!!

Congrats.

I only have 6 hours on mine, delivered 1 1/2 weeks ago. The property is finally drying out. Vacation time in July should mean that i can catch up. My wife and daughter are going to New Hampshire and i am staying home to do trenching, etc! i can't wait.

I've had my BX24 two weeks, and I have 0.0 hours on it. Of course, that may have something to do with the fact that I just swapped in a new gauge panel and it's raining.

Ray, did you get the step stay kit and new grippies? The new grippies are great.

I did not get the grippies. In an older thread, you mentioned these and referred to the old grips as being soft. The ones on my handles are hard plastic. Are these the new ones?

I forget again what the step stay kit is. Is this the thing that prevents the floorboard from cracking when standing at the wrong place? If so, mine has that fix in place.

Thanks
