Kubota is offering some nifty hinged remote outlet covers now...

[5030]

Tractor is in the shop for a valve adjustment and Dennis, my Kubota mechanic told me about them so I had him get me 6 of them. When I get the tractor back and the invoice, I'll list the part number and cost. Look just like scope caps for a rifle scope. Beats the stick in plugs and the over covers that keep coming off and getting lost.

Don’t try to figure them out in the dark, you’ll think your dumb or their broken.

Yep, thats them. I wasn't aware they existed until Dennis showed them to me and put them on my M9. Look like scope covers on a rifle scope. Keep in mind that my M9 cab unit is a 2004. Back then they weren't available.

What I do with my remotes is I color code them with colored zip ties, each remote has a specific colored zip tie on the barrel and a corresponding one on the hose end on the implements so I can match the colors and not have to guess what goes where. A number of my implements have multiple hoses that must go on certain remotes to function properly.

How are they holding up? I tend to have a high failure rate on the slip over or stick in ones.

Everyone does that

My covers are color coded. I still don't like those as well as the well type with drains I had on my old 5310.

I have the catch reservoir on my Massey 7495. Drains the dribble into a plastic bottle

5030, when you can, post the part numbers please! I’ve broken one of mine…. I wasn’t expecting to find a new one!
