The New Rig - 4520 Cab

eagle107 · Jan 27, 2012

Guys,

Below are the pictures of the new 2012 4520 rig. I really liked my NH Boomer 3040, but I cannot believe how much beefer the 3PH, FEL, SSQA and Bucket are on the 4520. In addition, my Boomer 3040's Shibaura N884L engine smoked like a demon at only 18.2 hours; filled the whole barn with diesel smoke. Starting the JD PowerTech is really clean and smooth. Enjoy!

Eagle- very nice. Just out of curiosity, what prompted your decision on Turf's vs R-4? I have turfs on my 3320-that I bought new and it was my primary mower at the time-since then I bought a Z-trak from one of my kids-so I don't mow anymore. I recently bought a 4720 with 200 hours. It has turf's and I'm thinking maybe I would be better off to see if I can't swap out with someone.

Mowing will NOT be its primary duty.

That 4520 is an awesome tractor. I'm sure you'll be pleased with it:thumbsup:

Seriously..... This does nothing toward helping me be totally satisfied with my current tractor

What is the purpose of the orange lever to the left of the seat? My older 4720 cab doesn't have it. And, BTW, very nice!

The upper one is the range selector, the lower one is the parking brake.

Hopefully, its the parking brake- I very quickly discovered on my 2007 4720 that the previous owner had bent the cheesy push/pull cable set up- very poor design IMO
