Anyone install any kind of engine heater like a lower radiator hose heater in a their Uforce 600, 800 or 1000 machine yet? I have a 2021 Uforce 600 and am contemplating installing one for the consistently negative winter temps we have in North Dakota but would like to see if anyone has done it yet and how it works. Thanks

They do help however...they only keep the coolant warm and that means just the top-end of the engine. The real issues in cold weather come from lack..or delay..of lubrication so keeping the lower block and oil from reaching those sub-zero temps might be a better goal..plus as heat rises the top-end still gets some relief. People do it with different types of devices including oil plug and dip-stick heaters, simple automotive heating pad placed under the engine (which works very well), and just placing a simple trouble light with a 40 watt bulb under the engine. And for you a good 0w40 oil will be practically mandatory as well as keeping the battery on a maintainer at all times.
