Read articles →This is a personal-owner walkthrough of an MX5200, not a dealer pitch, covering real ownership details: why the owner runs 4WD with antifreeze-filled tires instead of $1,400 wheel weights, how to remove the loader, air breather/radiator screen maintenance, throttle vs. foot pedal use, loader float mode explained and demonstrated, and the regen light/process. It ends with actual field use pushing mulch. Best for prospective or new MX5200 owners wanting practical operating tips over spec sheets.

Wheel weights cost about $350 each, roughly $1,400 total, while filling tires with antifreeze cost about $125 per tire and adds weight to keep the light rear end down.
Pull the pins, drop the arms down, then work the controls and the whole front end loader will come off, useful for accessing the motor.
It means the tractor needs to regen and burn built-up exhaust junk, making the exhaust very hot, so move to open space away from dried mulch, hay, or grass before regenerating.
Pushing the loader control all the way forward locks it into float so the bucket rises and falls over bumps automatically while back dragging, keeping tires on the ground.
