I have an M6800, which I believe has the same set up as yours. In the heat, my gauge runs between middle and 3/4 when bushhogging. Key is to keep the radiator fins blown out. I have to stop regularly to clean off debris from the hood inlets. Others have reported using a battery pack blower to clean radiator when bushhogging.
