- Kubota M59, JD530, JD310SG. Restoring Yanmar YM165D
I hear you, but some larger tractors didn't get that figured out either.
Aiming the exhaus at thefront tire on Kubota's M59 makes a sooty mess all over the tire, wheel and nearby parts.... and then when revved up the exhaust refects straight back into the face of the operator. Clearly nobody at Kubota tried it before finalizing the design.
It was about the first thing everyone comments on when running the tractor. Even the salesman mentioned it.
But how important is that? All it takes is fifty bucks worth of flex pipe and clamps from Amazon to run the exhaust anywhere you want.
