Some folks just can't live with a dirty tractor.........I can. Some folks have to wash their tractors every week........I don't. However, I did give my dirty old tractor a bath this weekend in preperation for a reduced work schedule this winter. So here are some pictures of a reletively clean tractor......for now. How about you.....how often do you wash your pride and joy?

I try to wash it every time i grease it which in the summer is every 2 weeks.
in the winter I plan on washing it good once and it should keep clean through all the icky white stuff.

Gotta love a clean tractor though. i think it's worth the work. :D

I usually wash mine two or three times per year........ I even waxed the sheetmetal once this year. I gave her a wash when i got her ready for winter by removing the loader and hoe, and installing the blower.

I have never washed a tractor as much as I have my new 3720 Cab. The windows get very dirty fast, and I hate windshield wiper marks..... I would guess Mine gets washed every 10 hours of use, unless the windows need it before then.......

Boy I wonder who that was directed at? What are you cleaning it up, to sell? I looks like it is out in your yard for sale.

I wash mine really good with a coat a wax at least twice a year. Once before winter to get all the mud and grease off and once in the spring to set all the sand and salt off from over the winter.
I rinse it off everytime it gets really muddy or dirty just to get the heavy stuff off.
I understand the comment about the windows I try to keep them as clean as possible especially when it is really sunny out. It is hard to look through a dirty window.

NOooooooooo........I was just power washing off the mud, dirt and grime and gave it a kerosene bath.......just the only area that the kids are not horsing around in that I could make a mess. I don't get enough traffic on that road to sell it.:cool: Maybe some day I will own a tractor that deserves a bath more often.:rolleyes:

Maybe, I know where there is a beautiful 4300 calling your name! Yours does not look bad at all, how many hours were on it?

For the age of the tractor either you are not getting it dirty enough or you wash it more that you are telling us cause it looks like new still beside beign a little faded:rolleyes:

I air blow mine when I get stuff on it from brush hogging or a lot of shredding. Rarely wash it now because this keeps it from getting very dirty.
