I have a L3301 with @ 100 hours and a L3560LE with @ 55 hours.
I'm buying a tract of land that comes with a MX5400 with under 30 hours. It is set up a lot like my 3560 with loader, r4's, 3rd function...
Just curious how you like your MX5400?
FWIW- I love both my L's.
Thanks for your feedback

I don't have the MX5400 but I do have a MX6000 with a cab. It was delivered on 5/6 and I have 42 hrs on it. So far it has done everything I have thrown at it and no issues. I am having the cab windows tinted this week. It is hot here in Texas.

I think I'd check the 134a charge lever first. I was surprised after I had my ac recharged by my Kubota tech how much better the ac in my 2004 M9 worked. It never worked well until I had it recharged so looking back, I believe it was low on 134a since it was new (and got worse as it aged).

I was running hay in 95 degree field temp with the sun beating down and I could only dial the blower on setting one or it was too cold in the cab. 95 outside, 65 inside.

I find that in hot sun, the A/C system is a bit overwhelmed and also concluded tinted windows would help. Pretty sure the MX cab and Grand L 60 series have an identical HVAC system, which most of the time works great.

My AC works fine. I just tinted the windows to keep the UV rays off me and to keep the glare down. Works great.
