This video is about what you should know before getting a Mauser Cab for your 1025R. Overall Height with Cab 79" without strobe light. Cab adds about 400 lbs to the tractor.
Looks like a very nice addition to your tractor. I am 63 now and don't enjoy getting cold plowing snow with my open station tractors anymore. I have a very rare 1970 John Deere 2520 diesel wide front with a cab and heater. It is 2wd so I put a set of chains on it for the winter. It doesn't have ac but the windows all open up. That is what I found really interesting about your cab. Mine is really primitive compared to yours. Noisey and doesn't seal up very well as it precedes the sound guard cabs. In the winter, the heater will feel much better than the cold air outside. Thanks for sharing. Gary Fox, Iowa
Absolutely great having this cab. Cutoff tee shirt in o degree weather. Definitely need rear ballast so it's not tip happy. The front window wide open when using the bucket is Definitely a no no. 10 hrs running time when the tell tale rod blew ot the window, good thing for safety glass. The window does have a handle lock with a second setting to keep it open a couple of inches and still use the bucket fully with no issues. A secondary fan for summer is a great idea. All an all very happy with this cab
nice video. you said be careful raising the loader with the windshield open. my friend did that and shattered the windshield. ordered a new one from john deere , the cost of the windshield was $219.00, but they had to order it from Austria, where the cabs are made, and the shipping was $700.00, what a shock, be very carful, I know my friend will be
The sad part is all they would have had to do is reduce the length of the bucket level indicator buy 2" on the end and you wouldn't have to worry about breaking the front windshield.
yes that would have been such an easy fix. I do have a question for you, at 3:44 of the video I noticed all of your hoses were up on top, is that some kind of conversion kit to move them from down below, I have bad hands and that would make it so much easier to reconnect them. Thanks for any help you could give me in this matter
@@brucepeabody6644 That is what is called a single point hydraulic connector. The one you see is a 3 circuit Part# BW16074. The 2 circuit part number is AW36429.
@@brucepeabody6644 www.hoseandfittings.com is where I purchased a lot of the parts. I have hoses that also go to the back of the tractor so that required some T's. If you're only doing the loader all you'll need is 4 hoses made up and you reuse the loader male quick couplers. the hose you will need is a 3/8" BOSS on one end and 1/2" FFO so all you need to do is call up the guys at the website and tell them you need 4 of 06R2AT-06MB-08FFSX and the length you need in inches for the hose. You will also need 4 of each of these FF2406-08-06, FF6402-06-06, 6425-06-06. These parts plus the single point adapter kit is all you need to convert your 1 series tractor over. Everything is o-ring based so it is quick and easy to assemble. I would say depending on how mechanically inclined you are, I would say somewhere between 30 minutes to an hour to do. Those part numbers are for the single point I have which is 6 ports or 3 circuits and is considered 1/2". I think the 4 port is also 1/2" but if it was 3/8" you wouldn't need FF2406-08-06 as that takes it from 1/2" to the 3/8" the 1025r uses. You would also use the hose part number 06R2AT-06MB-06FFSX as that is 3/8" on both ends instead of the other hose which is 3/8" on one end and 1/2" on the other end.
have the mauser cab. -5 degrees out in winter and the heat will roast you out of the cab. Very easy to adjust it but if you like it hot this is the cab for you.
I`ve been a JD guy for over 40yrs. But JD is why our new tractor is a Kubota. The Kubota Premium cab is a far better designed cab by leaps and bounds. Not to mention, JD`s tractor prices were way out of line. Kubota smoked the JD in price on everything. This JD Mauser cab was not engineered very well at all. One of the biggest reasons we didnt like the JD, it blows all the engine heat rearward. Kubota blows it forward, away from you. It made our decision a whole lot easier.
Nice looking cab, at least you have heat in the winter time. I prefer the kubota factory cab with heat and ac. Parts are also hard to get for the Mauser cab.
I have actually upgraded to a Kubota L6060 with cab, love the grand l6060. My father now has the 1025r with mauser cab and front snowblower and loves it.
moved the radio into head liner as in summer with doors off it gets wet and frys..new mount for antena gives it much better range as its on top of the cab.this is season 3 for us with it..run it in -35 and the cab is nice and warm..
How much did it cost? Looks like a good solid cab. Mow into a nest of bees and it's paid for! Thanks for showing a new product(at least I never saw one) Wonder if they make one for a Massey 1725m?
hey, great video. How cold have you use the tractor in? Do all the windows stay defrosted? I'm torn between 1025 with cab or bump to a lx2610 with cab.
The step is by Mudd's Customs, great guy and a great product facebook.com/muddscustoms/ The turf tires are better on packed snow/ice and easier on the lawn. This year my parents are using it for snow removal and even my dad has noticed the difference compared to his 1025r with R4s when blowing snow up the hill, his with the R4s will not make it up while the R3 have no issue.
It does have the single point connector for the FEL. The one I have is a 3 circuit but there is a 2 circuit one that I have seen a lot of people use for the 1,2,3, or 4 series tractor. AW36429
I have questions about your Hydraulic connectors. I saw them up near the cab. I have tried to get my dealer to help with the difficulty of connecting the hoses under the corner of the cab but they say there is nothing that can be done . Do you have more info about this? Is this a John Deere part or something else?
@@justdoingmyownthing.2504 Does the kit come with that elevated bracket? I'd like to do that same set up if you have the parts number?? Thanks again, the video was very informative - in fact I purchased one with a cab just today!
Hello Sean, how much does a cab run for the 1025R, looks very nice. Also is it safe to open the windows in the front and back when using in the summer with the doors off?
@@justdoingmyownthing.2504 Hi Sean. My family and I keep watching your mauser Cab videos. Very Nice cab, thank you for posting. We went to the John Deere dealer earlier today to check one out. They have never done in install on one yet. There other store has done one. The price they gave us seemed very high. Im tryning to get some more feed back on the cab. It would be great to have for my family, on two differrnt properties to use on the same road. All women, dowing the mowing and plowing.would i be able to ask you some more questions on the cab, via email or phone. We need more imput on it. Thanks
Thanks for the video, but I have to ask about replacement glass for the left hand side. Glass part # and or the cab part # because it was not a John Deere factory installation.? Can you or anybody here help me out.?
How do you like the step? They sell a shorter one that I am considering. I think it might work well for getting in but maybe not getting out. I just don't like the look of a super long step
Which cable are you talking about? Front or rear snowblower? This one has an electric 12v actuator for front snowblower deflector-up/down with switch in cab. The raise/lower and deflector rotation uses loader control.
@@wmleuschen3586 If you installed it yourself, you would be at about the same price. I paid 7300 installed and that was with having a bigger alternator, radio, and some lights, and the total cost with labor and all the extras and tax was $7300 and they billed me for I think was 11 or 12 hours at about a $100 an hour.
I see your cab has a gas cylinder on each door did you buy the right hand side? My 2021 came with only one on the left side I can't believe they get that much for one, $104.00 and $74.00 for the spring latch please let me know. thanks
According to JD no you can't because the rear window is in the way. I have seen people do it and they end up taking the back window out, but it isn't recommended.
The link is below. Comes with a 12V cig lighter plug so you just plug it into the 12v outlet on the 1025r www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078YLS839/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
You would have to take the back window off when using the backhoe. I wouldn't recommend it as I have seen people use the 2060b with the cab but it looks very uncomfortable.
You are correct, as of right now you would need to go to the 3 series, however, I have heard that the 2 series may be coming out with one next year. The question will be whether it is only available in Europe or in both Europe and North America.
@@justdoingmyownthing.2504, they did come out with a cab for the 2025R this year, it has heat only like yours on the 1025R. I work for a John Deere dealer in New York state. The 2025R cab has a second set of louvers for the heat/defrost. Any we have installed and added a radio, we have put the radio in the headliner and the antenna on the back of the cab up high next to where your work light is attached. One issue we have seen is when you add a rear wiper the rear window hits the wiper blade when you open it. We have put a strap on it to keep the window from opening too far. We have installed several of the cabs on 2025R and 1025R tractors. Is the any way you could add a picture of the mounting of the single point connector? I would really like to see that, as the couplers are not the easiest to connect when you install the Mauser cab. Pretty tight underneath there. We've installed a few single point connectors on 3, 4, and 5 tractors but haven't found something for the 1 and 2. I'm going to look that part number up and see if that's something we can get. Thanks for the video, glad you like the cab.
@@justdoingmyownthing.2504 Thanks. I ask a J.D. salesman, he said that the 1023E & 1025R are the same except for H.P. & some add on comfort features. I don't always trust salesman to be totally honest. Wanted another opinion. THANKS.
Just when I thought Curtis couldn't possibly make an uglier cab.....he topped himself last year. Curtis. His family. His friends. And anybody that looks like him should be buried in a Curtis Cab Casket.
Watch a professional video , narrator sounds like he is struggling as to what to say. Should have been done with rehearsal and scripted information. The material covered is good, if you watch it all the way through.
