LX3310 delivery on 5/8

[Snowman7]

Yes I am a little excited, nervous, and not sure what else I am feeling. I spent an hour on the 770 yesterday
and sadly said my goodbyes. Almost a perfect 1100 hours and 22 years. If $ was no object there is no way I would
trade this baby in. It would be my woods tractor. It is hard for me to envision blowing my 1/4 mile driveway without
my pac boots, Carharts, Mad Bomber, and gloves stuffed in my Carharts so I could swap when I could not feel my
hands anymore. I can only hope this LX is as trouble free as the old JD770.

Congrats on the new tractor. As always, give it good look over and make sure fluids and everything is good to go. Reading and watching videos of those with the LX, that cab is nice in the winter for just the task you are undertaking.

Be curious to get your impressions of the machine was you get a few hours under your belt with it.

Yes, I will post thoughts as they come up. The first big change is going from a mmm to the rfm, and heading into the woods with a cab. That one scares me a little!

 

[B2710]

Picked my LX3310 cab up about two months ago and have about 20 hours on it (yet to do a regen), sold the B2710 it was replacing and it was kind of sad day but I really like the cab (wife really likes the AC since she does all the mowing around the property).

As you note with a cab, you will need to be nervous for a while until you get used to the space it uses. Already broke a mirror on a tree limb ...

Funny note, I have hit my head a few times on the side windows as I am so used to looking over the rear wheel on most of my tractors to see how close I am to stuff. Got to get used to using the mirrors...

As noted by bmyers, check all fluids, my front axle took almost a quart to hit the stick and the hydraulics was low also.

Thank you for the tips!

Congrats on the new LX3310!

I'm sure all the apprehension will wash away tomorrow when the new tractor arrives.

With the mirrors, when I'm heading into the woods, I fold my mirrors in, so they aren't sticking out.

Although I have gotten so use to using them, when I have them folded in, I really miss them.

My 3310 was delivered about three weeks ago. It's a fantastic machine, I've got about 12hrs on it now. For the first few hours the engines DPF system will burn your nose and make your eyes water. Since you have a cab like me you can't smell it unless you are outside. Also if the A/C is on I wouldn't run the RPMs below 2k. I'll be doing a walk around video once I get some time since I have the larger SU tires and people have bunch of questions on it.

Looking good. Get those hours on it and the smell will dissipate.

Nice looking tractor and attachments! ! Did you get the 63" snowblower? With or without hydraulic chute rotation? I get my LX3310 in the next two weeks. Mine is not a cab model, but I ordered similar attachments. Getting super excited.

I bought the 64” commercial blower, loader, and RB2672 rear blade with hydraulic angling. Yes, the blower has hydraulic angling.

No, this is not a diesel smell. I drive a Duramax and had my 770 for 22 yrs. This is
something altogether different, it is pungent and has a chemical burning aroma.

Nice setup.

I just got the call today that my LX 3310 should be ready tomorrow.
FEL
BH77
64 inch Commercial snow blower
3rd function
load leveler
pallet forks
Bxpanded root ripper

I am as nervous as you. I have only ever used a Kubota GR2120 to mow.
I used to be an overhead crane operator. I picked it up fast and within a short time did not need to look at the buttons.
I hope I pick up the FEL and backhoe just as quickly.

Just a friendly reminder, keep the loader low when moving around. You would hate to lay the new toy over on it's side.
