Excessive Heat

[lherren]

I have a Kobota B2400 that seems to be builting up excessive heat in the transmission. When I work with the tractor, using the FEL, for extended time it, gets extremely hot in the rear transmission area. In fact, it gets so hot that it gets uncomfortable just sitting in the seat. And, the case unerneath is so hot that you can't touch the outside of the case. All fluid levels seem to be correct and I have change it along with new filters. I am worried about the future consequences of this heat buildup.

Does this model have a fan to cool the tranny or a radiator mounted oil cooler? I would resolve the problem before continuing to use it, that is way to hot. Some of the small units use a fan and the blades get broken off. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable about this model will chime in.
