No cab but it has a heater on the right side. not to bad this time of year if the wind isn't blowing hard kips my right leg warm and I can warm my hands other than that its about worthless. One ? Bob how hot should the machine run it has the 3046 engine turbo and in the hot weather it runs about 190 unless I use it very hard it may get upto around 210 but this time of year it never even gets close to 190. the machine works much better at 190 motor and trany. Its almost slugish untill it gets some heat in the drive line. I did drive our town's new D5M XL with a cab didn't much care for the visabilty but what a joy to drive.

The reason I asked Murray was the AC compressor bracket. Since you do run one with a cab I will tell you. Every morning when you check the oil just check the AC compressor for movement. I saw one get loose and break a chunk out of the aluminumium intake manifold. Wanted you to know this and keep an eye on it. If you are not getting warm enough change the temp regulator and when you have the old one out do this. Hold the old and new ones over a kettel in the steam with pliers untill they both open. They might both open at the same time but the old one may be slow to close. I found this with one on my car and it may happen to others too. Anyway you will know if you have found anything. The reg should be able to keep your engine at the same temp now as in summer but not open as much. I think 190 would be about right if you are working it good.
