I was wondering if anyone out there has had a fire in their Deere skid loader ? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I did a lot of researching before I got my 333g and came to the conclusion these fires are from people not cleaning out the machine and working it like a mule on hot days with 90-100+ degree days, I know in the south those temps are typical but imo any machine would fry eventually doing that. Deere's forestry package I believe comes with better seals on the engine compartment that alleviate build up of junk and a serious mulching op would probably be best off with a hydraulic cooler as well, no matter the brand of machine.I have not, but I know the land clearing/mulcher guys don't speak very highly of the Deere machines for performance and they also burn fairly frequently it seems. Usually they're a complete loss within a minute.
