LS XR4040 Compact Tractor overview & brush hogging

- Here's an overview of our new LS XR4040 shuttle shift and us doing some brush hogging.
Right now we have 5 hours on the clock and have used it for re-grading our driveway, moving some dirt around, creating a turnaround and parking space.
With 5 hours on her I am very happy with what she can do.
Thank you for the overview! I'm sold on this tractor for my 10 acres. Found a dealer here in Tennessee and got the tractor, a 6 foot bush hog, and 5ft tiller with an 18 ft trailer package for 25.5k. Can't beat it!
+Matthew Keller great price... you will not be disappointed... good luck with her...
+Matthew Keller great price. I couldn't get local dealer under 28k for just the tractor and FEL.
Very nice job. I have the same size.. only a 4140. I believe the 41 means hydrostatic which mine is. I have 20 acres to play around with. Use it for everything including brushhoging, box blade, 2 bottom plow with an 8 ft drag. Also just picked up a 6ft 3pnt disk. And of course the frome loader. My wife even jumps on once in awhile to mow our trails.. we are extremely satisfied and as you stated.. not sorry we went with the 4o and 4wd... (my farmer friends call it front wheel assist). anyway enjoy the LS..
I'm in Central Michigan..
Thank you for taking the time to make a video and sharing it! It's really helpful to see an in-depth overview when researching tractors. We are really happy with our LS 3039...works great in the Western New York winters!
I know I’m late to the comment party, but here’s a few things I’ve learned with mine. 1. Any metal coming in contact with dirt and rock can’t keep paint on it. 2 the PTO turns at 540. Rpm. Not 5400. 3. I would suggest a 6ft cutter because it would reach outside the tires. Otherwise you might cut everything you run over. Nice remotes on the back. Good luck. I’m sure you’re a pro on it by now.
very nice tractor, nothing like have the right tool for a job!
James Pottorff Got that right... Doing the driveway would have taken half a day with the old tractor and blade... doing that turn-around area and parking spot... probably a day... and the other trail work that I didn't video probably another... With this it took 4 hours...
Hi. I like the video. I have the LS P7040. And I love it. Keep placing videos
This is my next tractor!
greatloo looking tractor. i have a brush hogging video. i have the same size 40hp 4x4 diesel. love these tractors.
You will need a box blade to go with your tractor also to do some of the work around your place. I got a package deal when I got my first tractor and glad that I did get the package since I needed what I got. I added extra implements over time and now have a new tractor as well to use with my other implements since I keep the brush hog on my older tractor only.
I have the same tractor but it's got New Holland on it and I got 15000 hours on it and I ain't never did nothing to it it's a good tractor
The beacon switch is redundant on your tractor it is fir a rotating flashing amber warning light used if you do road mileage.....
I love your attention to detail. I’m with the others in wondering how you like the tractor now? I also like your comments about your old iron. Owning several old tractors myself, the noodling factor gets a little old. But a person can still buy an Allis, Farmall, Case etc., from the 50’s and 60’s, that work very well for $2000-$3,000 all day long. Enlighten us please.
I've been looking at one of these to replace my old 8n. Viable replacement?
That's quite a nice toy...:)
1timby little boys don't grow up... they just get bigger Tonka trucks :)
Will you guys please add more videos of this tractor and update the review of it for us!?I'd love to see more work done with this machine!
The grill guard is supposed to be pushed and locked in closer to the hood or to the front when moving.
+Tbvck you are correct... we had it forward to open the hood and neglected to put it back
May 2017, what are your thoughts on your LS so far?
Beacon is a prewired switch to mount a strobe, wire should be in the rear on the left
thank you... we do not have anything wired to run off that switch... for the most part we only run in our woods and have not really needed it...
I believe a 8n is only 16 hp at the most so that tractor will blow you away with what it can do congrats
Regen=4 hrs? My JD had its first regen at 50 hrs?
How has the tractor been holding up if you still have it?
I can't seem to find an answer on the LS site, so perhaps you can tell me.....does LS make a gasoline engine or is all their stuff diesel?
+Keith Rayeski they are all diesel... not sure of any large tractors that are gasoline anymore...
thanks for that.....I am just starting out....the Mrs and I are negotiating for a homestead and of course a tractor is on the must have list...this, is how virgin novices become informed. I am disappointed however....don't want to go diesel if I can help it. Thanks again!!
+Keith Rayeski if it is going to sit for more than a week or 2 at a time without starting it you want a diesel!!!
John Keeling advice I'll make good use of John....thank you,!
going back to your comment about sitting... this tractor sat for about 2-3 months over the winter and started right up... none of our gas equipment does that... we normally have to warm the motor with a heat lamp for a while... still loving this tractor after a year of ownership...
Your PTO is running at 540RPM just fyi seems like a nice tractor though, but I'm a Kubota man. Enjoy it though you'll get a lot of work done with it.
Seems like that fuel tank would be easy to puncture where it is located.
My old tired shoulders love it tho. And the loader sub frame gives some protection. Beyond that, its on the operator to pay attention.
I'm surprised about the regeneration cycle. If you're running under load the exhaust should be hot enough that the trap is continuously regenerating. The forced regeneration should only be needed if you're idling a lot or running under very light load. Tier IV, of course has nothing to do with a 4-hour regen cycle. If you're forced to spend 40-minutes doing regen for every 4-hours of operation that would be totally unacceptable. Per regulation you should be able to operate more than 3000 hrs before you may need to have the ash cleaned from the trap.
hello how about a question I have little time to buy my tractor I am new to this and I don't know how much to charge to clean a 3 acre site you can give me some advice on how much to charge ... thanks greetings from Dallas texas.
Any issues with your LS tractor?
I am looking to buy a new tractor I love the 7040 ls but I'm scared about the warranty who will honor the warranty I have called every bit newholland dealer I can find they tell me it's nothing to them and they will not honer it so can someone tell me who will
What a beast of a tractor. Looks pretty. 4 wheel drive. Great at moving snow. Do you have an enclosure for driver for those snowy or rainy days? I would instal a GPS unit hidden on it, if someone ever steals it you can lock right on it and get it back. Hate to sound nuts but some people are always trying to rip someone off. Good Luck with a great machine. Enjoying your videos, Thank You for sharing.
+mmanut we looked at the cab model but with our wooded location it seemed like an accident waiting to happen... the windshield cost $1k to replace... even the dealer did not recommend it... so we will just have to suck it up in the rain... we've had good luck with nothing being stolen from the property but it is insured... it would suck but we could then get it replaced... hopefully we never have to use it...
Thanks for the video. I am looking for a LS tractor. Quick question. How many Acres are you using this tractor on? Thanks
On the FEL will it do 2 functions at the same time such as curl in raise or lower and dump the load? I'm new to tractors what is the region and what doesn't do?
Thank you
Mech Uno yes it will
Just boneing up on tractors and looking to upgrade into a bigger unit from my garden tractor. What are the advantages of filling the tires?
traction... it also helps if you have a heavy load on the bucket... moves the center of gravity rearward... makes it less tippy...
When you load the tires with fluid, it puts extra weight as close to the ground as you can get, without sacrificing ground clearance. Lowering the center of gravity, and adding a lot of stability on steeper hills, or traction to the tires on a whole. It will also add weight for ballast overall, when using a loader to counteract the weight within the bucket. some of the newer tractors will lift far more then is stable, and lift the rear tires off the ground. You can counteract this with filled tires, as well as having a very heavy implement on the 3 pt, like a box blade. It is not always advised, if weight is a negative for your application, such as if you need to "float" over soft ground. an extra 1200 lbs between a box blade, and filled tires can dig you in deeper.
What dealer did you buy from?
+D kilbrew eden trackor, edentractor.com
Hello. Thanks for the video. I was going in to look at the Mahindra and the sales guy showed me this. I had never seen them. Seems like a lot more tractor for the price. Are you still happy with it? Any problems? Does that 24k include tax? Thanks for your help.
So far no problems... we've mostly been using it for earth moving with the bucket and there's been nothing we've thrown at it that it hasn't handled yet... We have around 50 hours on it now which is probably what we'll put on her each year...
No problems yet... I do with the open cab model like we have had a cup holder for a water bottle (its the little things)... and I'm still not a huge fan of the regen you get with all tier 4 moters... always seems to kick off as we're finishing things up...
$24k was everything... including the box scrapper, delivery and 50 hours service (which we'll be scheduling shortly)
if your getting a new tractor with a loader and like the mahindra you also might want to look at a Tym tractor i beleave they make the e max series for mahindra If I can find the link to a good Tym dealer I will post it but i beleave that the dealer is called smith's entirprise
Your posting is great.
I see you posted a couple years ago, do you still have your LS tractor?
I'm looking at this model and would appreciate you feed back.
Thanks
I do and just posted another video of us using it to get some gravel out of our creek...
I live in Boston/Colden area, how do you like doing business at Eden Tractor? How is the LS treating you these days, is the regen an issue?
They were great to work with... we had them do our 50 hour service on-site so we didn't need to take the tractor to them... it's not that big of a machine but the combined weight of the tractor and a trailer big enough for it is just a little more than a 1500 class pickup (which is what we have)
the regen isn't an issue but does seem to kick off right about the time you want to finish working... usually wen it happens we just do other jobs while the tractors regening...
buffcleb How long does the regen process take?
it varies... 30 minutes to 45 at the longest...
Looking at this tractor. Not sure how it compares to kabota and mahindra.
I'm overseas right now and I made contact requests to Kubota (x2) crickets. Massey/Kioti (same dealer) and LS. Massey (AgCo) got back to me quick and referred me to the local dealer. Crickets. I got on the Massey dealer website and made another contact request. Crickets.
LS is the only one to respond and in 2 days I had a quote for a package on an XR3135H and the implements I need to start out.
My local LS dealer's slogan is "We really want to sell you a tractor" and they're proving it with action.
There very few real differences among the makes. Most notably Massey and a few others have engineered the DPF and regens out of the larger engines now. I don't see regens as a problem since with LS you simply tap the go ahead button, when the regen light flashes, and keep on working.
How much did this tractor cost you?
+masterofce it was $24k with the loader, box scrapper and first service...
Are you still pleased? Any issues/regrets with LS?
+patriots1needed love the tractor... but we've only had it for a couple of months... so far there is nothing I would change... well it could use a cup holder...
+buffcleb thanks for quick response!
Nice video. Very nice tractor for the money, what brand? That ROPS should be up for safety!
+Shawn Allen thanks... It's a LS... they make New Holland... on the back of a New Holland the manufacturer tag says LS...
And yeah I know the ROPS should be up but it the woods it gets hit often... not to mention it does not fit in the shed with it up... Our other tractors don't have one at all... We will try and not need it :)
+buffcleb LG makes these tractors and before 2015 new Holland made there motors years ago the company for these tractors used to be called Montana's ;)
+Justin Wall 2015 models and up now are actually made with LG motors now
+buffcleb old tractors never even had rops I be more scared of something being thrown out the brush hog haha like your videos though I almost bought the 35 hp but I found such a great deal on a JD I couldn't turn it down this will be the next tractor I go with before I bought this my new JD I had a JD 2040 it had now rops and im still alive to (shawn) you just gotta know your limits
The company names were changed to LG in 1995. Tractors have been sold under GoldStar, Fiat-GoldStar, LG, LG-Fiat, LG-New Holland, LS and LS-New Holland names in South Korea. In North America, they have been sold as LG Montana, Montana, Farmtrac LandTrac, LongAgri LandTrac, McCormick Tractors and Landini.
