    New LX 3310

    And now all my implements (snowblower, flail mower, etc) are sized for LX width, so won't be trading in for wider chasis. But it has worked great. There have been a few times I wished I had more FEL lift capacity but all in all I have loved it.

    New LX 3310

    As for cold weather lx3310 -- with the block heater plugged in I have started without a problem -10F several times. As for maintaining temps - when that cold and running snowblower at 2500rpm temp stays middle. If running more like 2000 rpm for other stuff, I use the magnet grill covers that...

    Waiting for my new tractor...

    This ^^^^^^ This spring/summer I have had the, "we don't know what we are getting until we open the back of the semi" conversation about a SeaDoo jetski, a watercraft trailer, a Ford pickup, a Polaris snowmobile, and a pair of kayaks. Day to day they can't predict what they are getting from...

    While my LX3310 seems to top out at 2400 rpm, this doc suggests it is designed to run up to 3000 rpm. Is this just artificially down tuned to fit a hp target (33hp in this case) in the product line up? Is there any good way to tap some of this "hidden" power?

    Buying my first Tractor

    My lx3310 (with filled tires) does fine with 60” box blade on our quarter mile gravel driveway.

    With PTO (rear and mid-mount) implements I run my LX3310 at 2400rpm per specs. When not using PTO I tend to run between 2000-2200 rpm. It just seems to be a noise and performance sweet spot. If I run it for any length of time under 2000 rpm I get an early regen event. Seems with the DPF...

    Buying my first Tractor

    I have loved my LX3310 for our 70+ acres (80% wooded). Ran up to 4" branches through the chipper for hours last weekend without even the tiniest hint of slow down and is in the process of clearing trails with a flail mower through 3" brush/poplar stands without a single bog down. My only wish...

    In the olden days only a person’s kids and neighbors knew if they said something stupid - now we all get to see.

    We are in a mess. I know the guys behind this "neutral" site that tries to provide balanced news by calling out starting biases and encouraging the reading both sides and coming to one's own conclusion. While it is a bipartisan effort, it did have roots in a very slightly right-of-center...

    Here we go kids

    Still waiting for any evidence for the proposition the NRA was founded to protect freed slaves. I have been a member for 30 years and the snopes assessment is far closer to the story the NRA itself has been telling me all this time. Not liking mainstream media is not proof of the proposition...
