Once the paint dries and the cylinder leaves the factory, the useful life of those o-rings is over and they are just...

    Yes, he said it needed to swing side to side so if you run over something you wont break any linkage. My thought was thats why they put a slip clutch, and stump jumper on these machines. Yeah your right there is no way Im going to let that much weight swing around, also it is a CAT 1 or 2...

    Break-in Question

    Skeeter, I just p/u my MX5100 last week, asked the dealer the same question. They said Kubota runs the motors before they send them out, so theyre ready when delivered.
