So got a mgx 135 out last night and first impressions are ok but ride isnt very smooth and it has suspension. Also its very jumpy between 4th and 5th gear? Any1 else have this problem?

Probably just needs calibration

 

[daveydiesel1]

Is that a dealer job or can you explain how to do it

 

[leone75]

Surely if it's on demo the dealer would have it calibrated as good as it can be

Well you would hope so.

Well it only arrived at that dealer few mins b4 i lifted it so id say they never looked at it. It wasnt even cleaned. But done first day with it there and its nice enought wee tractor. Spot lights are rubbish when your used with leds,dont like when ye stop at end o road there isnt a preset gear for startin of and ye have to go down thru them yourself which if ye forget she just stalls,radio is in bad place and wiper doesnt clear enough area,steerin doesnt have good lock?but plus side thers well positioned heater vents,linkage controls get thumbs up and everythin is fairly simple for others to just jump in and drive with no explainin needed?

Update left her back today way 120 more hours on her. Seems easy on the juice and has fair amount of power. More i drive it more i like it but as usual theres few dislikes like where 4wd button is on dash and fact he have to keep foot on pedal to keep rear diff engaged. Got run in 7152 in dealers really like it but would be lot more money

 

[daveydiesel1]

Also like the standard 5 year 5000 hour warranty

Dont do it , piles of junk , chap near here had 5 worked fairly hard , all under warranty , always one down , if younwant to know more ,pm me will pass his number on

I do hope that the dealer is now making up an invoice for tractor hire to send out to you.

If you have placed an order then this invoice should be waived. But if you have had the tractor for 20 days and put 120 hours on the clock and you are not expecting a charge then frankly you are taking the pee!

I would hope he's not. If the dealer wanted it back sooner I'm sure he would have lifted it. As for the hours any dealer should specify a limit if a machine is going to be with someone for a while.

 

[Mursal]

Going to throw the Zetor in against it?

Na zetor is stayin just have to get her fixed. But dealer never asked her back sooner and he didnt seem to care about the hours cause we buy quite alot of him

What’s it been to rack up those hours, this time of year?

When we’ve had a tractor on demo they always say when they’re going to collect it and how much work to do with it. Normally they say ‘use it as much as you can, canttbe an accurate demo if you don’t’.
In fact one dealer got really upset when we only put 30 hrs on it in 5 days!

 

[tweedale terrier]

I suppose 10 customers putting on 30 hours makes it ex hire rather than ex demo

 

[Scrapjockey]

Have a M125X here with ten years.Similar jump between 4 and 5 .Light on juice.All horses present and healthy.

 

[James]

Know of a hedge cutter that was ex demo with 700 hrs on it.
