RESOLUTION - little did I know (and guessing some others as well), the overflow tank on an L4701 can be full and your radiator can be bone dry. The temperature gauge does not read engine block temp. but will read ambient air inside an empty radiator. KTAC to the rescue; in addition to the hole...

So sorry for your misfortune. I have a 2021 with 450 hours. I opted for KTAC and have used it three times in the two years I’ve owned it. Hearing of your misfortune makes me think i made a good choice by getting the KTAC.

No “beeps” are present indicating a stage 5. Exhaust temp was 272, temp at water pump was 170, radiator temp was 67. Air temp is 56 here in Alabama.

REGEN light continues to blink. Coolant temp gauge does move up a bit as tractor runs. Gauge appears to be working.

Three days ago, the tractor was running hot. I checked all fluids and clean radiator, everything ran OK now I’ve a REGEN light and engine won’t get hot enough for the REGEN light to stop flashing. Engine speed is up, outside temp is 55 degrees. Running tractor clearing debris and bucket work -...

Thanks for the link. This guy acted really surprised it actually worked. I had the exact same issue in mine but KTAC insurance replaced it. $250 deductible wasn’t too bad.

Link to YouTube video?

I think I answered one question. Looked through some pictures when it was newer and noticed a wire tie that is missing now.

My 4701 has a Tera Force 8ft grapple installed by the dealer. I have had it for a little over a year but question the hose length that results in a droop. Concerned it will get snagged on a limb or stump. Any one else have one that doesn’t have this droop or confirm this length is needed?

I run it at varying speeds. Brush hogging is at or above 2k RPM.

I have used on road diesel in my L4701HST and have yet to go through a regen. Is my tractor broke? On road was bought because I was suspicious about the sulfur count. I’ve since learned that all diesel require ultra low sulfur content.

How do you know when to clean this out (other than maintenance schedule)?

Worked like a charm! It was in float. Going to actually read the manual now after this embarrassing quest.

All I know is I’m pushing it all the way trying to get the pressure to lift the tractor.
