Hey kOua- glad I saw your link to coating the floorboards of your L3400- I am planning on doing the same thing this spring, since the original paint is really worn looking. I was thinking about disassembling, but your posts told me otherwise. I am okay masking.
Russel- you're gonna like your new Kubota. You can find the maintenance manual online thru TbN, too. You might want download it to a storage drive, for future reference. The owner's manual is pretty thorough for regular stuff, I find. And, years ago I used to travel the 401 when my mother-in-law lived in York, above Toronto. Your trailer looks a bit marginal, so glad you made it without the OPP stopping you.
Yes, I was pretty pleased with the results, and it still looked good when I traded it off 200+ hours later.
Tip, spray black paint into those big holes you see for access to those bolt heads first. It is just for looks, but when you coat the top of the floor boards they really contrast with the black topping by showing their orange color. If you are good at masking you could probably do it fairly easy..I would still take the center cover off. it is just 4 little screws and comes off easy. It is very helpful to have it covered as when you get on with your snowy or muddy boots, you invairbly step on or slip on that slick thing. Be sure to do your steps too.
