Coming in late with a few issues I had with my new 5055E. The brakes are 'soft' and the pedal travels 3inches +/- before starting to slow or stop the tractor, much less responsive than those on either of my 2 previous Kubotas. I was hooked up to my woods B84x rotary mower and needed to swap to the box blade to level a spot for the 40ft storage container due to be delivered later that afternoon, when they called with change of plans and were enroute at that time. I went to disconnect the mower and NO 3PT! The nut on the end of cable at the valve/lever had vibrated off at 10 hrs on the meter! Besides being very hard to reach under the cab and not knowing what size nut was needed (10mm by the way) I was stuck. The connex was delivered and is sitting at an angle on uneven ground but the the doors just do function. EVERY nut I could find, 3pt and draft control and SCV was loose and about to fall off. The only nuts found to be tight were the wheel lugs and FEL but still not sure if my unit is involved in the recall where JD used bolts too short for the specs. So far all chose clamps are tight, but I spend more time checking nuts and bolts than it takes to check lube/oil/and grease the FEL. I also do not have any grease zerks on the steering arms on front end of MFWD. I would prefer greasable fitting to sealed bearings on the front end. Opinions anyone?
We would have come back to your problems as soon as you had another development.
